    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Shit movies have been made for as long as there have been movies, and shit movies will be made for as long as there will be movies. Now that Disney owns the property, there's going to be a fucking avalanche of Star Wars films throughout the rest of each of our lives and long after we're dead...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    I never finished that trilogy. I tried multiple times back in the 90s. I must have read Heir 3-4 times and then always stalled out somewhere in the second book.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Yeah, I'm not buying that as the overriding reason. I know some people get off on peering for SJWs, studio shills and MSM hacks hiding under every facet of our culture these days, but that shit gets overblown way too frequently. I'll count it as a contributing factor, but I wonder how much of...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    I don't think I've seen such a disconnect between critics and general audience reactions before. It seemed like there was a strong wave of positivity the other day, now that the Euros got to see it...ouch. What gives? Failing metacritic? Fake news? SAD??

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Wow. Is that the first time slow-motion was ever used in a Star Wars movie? That looks really out of place.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Lots of reviews are out now. So far they've been extremely positive with a recurring theme that this movie is incredibly unique in the franchise, ties up a surprising amount of loose ends, and while it pays homage to Empire in many ways, it's nowhere near as reminiscent of it as TFA was of ANH...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Not to mention his awkward sexual encounter with a young Tusken Raider. The god damn sand got everywhere.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Yes, as fantastic as the game is overall, the almost total lack of traditional Zelda dungeons is a big miss for me. Sure, working out how to spin around some giant robot elephant's ass so that its anus lines up with some magical doodad is cool and all, but the enemy encounters in the...

    Star Wars Battlefront II

    Is this $20 yet? I just want to play through the single player missions, blow up some spaceships, attempt 1 multiplayer map where I get demolished by gangs of dipshit 11 year-olds, and then never touch it again.

    I'm sure that will happen seeing as how Nintendo and modern hardware haven't coeexisted since the 90s.

    So highly respected professionals can never be wrong and their opinions are completely shielded from any and all possible counterpoints. Got it. We should shut this place down and just leave some spec sheets up for people to enjoy at their leisure since professionals have already settled...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Well I'm all sobered up now so this shit is boring again, but A) I'll never play Doom on the Switch so my interest in that video is something less than 0, and B) like I've said several times now, I've played hours of Zelda both handheld and docked and the overall winner is completely clear...

    Heads up for all EA games and Ubisoft games going forward.

    I remember when a former coworker spent $300 to buy a Shiny Metallic Robe on EBay. It's 17 years later and we still laugh and call him an asshole for it.

    Well I'm finally drunk on here and ready to argue RGB color space and gamma tracking and shit with Ut and a_skeleton_03 bans him. In recompense you will post the picture of your penis bulge after downloading it to your Switch and viewing it in handheld mode so Rafterman will get all hot and...

    I'm pretty sure the last true cross platform game I purchased for a Nintendo system was Mortal Kombat 3 on the SNES in like 1995.

    Heads up for all EA games and Ubisoft games going forward.

    Claiming that EA will slash prices in relatively short order after XYZ game releases is a pretty bold prediction. Also, the Browns will not make the Superbowl this year and one day Donald Trump will say something retarded on Twitter.

    Star Wars Battlefront II

    Yeah, it does look fairly well done in this. I imagine I'll pick the game up when it's like $20 including a bunch of DLC like I did with the first game.

    Star Wars Battlefront II

    All I've ever truly wanted in a Star Wars game is an accurate simulation of the Death Star II space battle with all of the ships from the movie in play and where I can zip around the entirety of the map doing whatever the hell I feel like until I or the Death Star blow up. It's 34 years later...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Sorry, was busy finally getting some Mario time in on the 64" after playing on the handheld for the past few days. Just like Zelda, it looks drastically better on the TV despite those pesky basketball sized pixels. Imagine my total lack of surprise. And I will never pay for a Monopoly video...

    The cap system is fantastic. Tearing through a busy area by comboing your cap across multiple enemies in one fluid streak is just pure Mario goodness.

    Super Mario Odyssey

    I'm actually quite content with the fact that the Switch's library but for a handful of bright spots is largely a wasteland. Maybe I'll actually finish up the games I want to play before it's two console generations later. For the whiners who want a lot more, I totally used to be you, but now...

    Well that was disappointing. 3 Worfs for effort. 6.5 Picards on execution.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Lol, the fact that you are in disagreement with my reason for posting the graph puts you at odds with your buddy Rafterman, who claimed that Zelda looks better at 720p handheld than at 900p on a large screen, which means that perceived resolution changes based on screen size versus distance...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Claiming that someone "handled my sorry ass" when that someone is clearly challenged in reading comprehension and in following basic, simple conversational progression isn't doing any favors for your side. And in an appropriately related topic, I not only mentioned in the same fucking sentence...

    Jesus Christ. If this keeps up I'm going to start another tedious argument about pixel density. Watch your asses.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    It started because you responded to a retarded comment about Zelda being a top tier title graphically by going full retard in the other direction. But whatever. And no, I don't think blowing up a low resolution image to a much larger screen improves the picture...everything else being equal...

    I see we still have work to do to address illiteracy on FOH.org. Here, I'll simplify my repeatedly-stated positions to bring aid to those who posses the reading comprehension skills of a sleepy first grader: Zelda rendered at 900p at display sizes typical of consumer TVs does not remotely...

    Holy shit you two are fucking special. No kidding. That's the point, genius. An 8k smartphone would be just as pointless as a 16k smartphone because modern high end phones are already sharp beyond the ability of human vision to resolve individual pixels with the naked eye at anything...

    Super Mario Odyssey

    Game is a lot of fun if a bit too easy so far (only about two hours in). I haven't come close to dying yet which is a Mario first. It feels more like the Galaxy games than 64. The only things I don't like so far are the lame looking rabbit bosses.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Not one single person has claimed Zelda wouldn't benefit from a higher resolution. At this point you're just arguing with a strawman while contuining to hold to the retarded notion that increasing resolution always makes for a better image. That's like saying a car with a top speed of 250MPH is...

    No worries, it's completely Ut's fault anyway.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Just because people had dumb, exaggerated shit to say about it over the years doesn't make the fact that resolution is a game of diminishing returns any less true. I've been playing computer games since 1983. I know what resolution can do on a screen that is two feet away from you. It's much...

    No, contrast doesn't address any of those issues you just mentioned, and I never claimed that it did. What I did claim from the beginning is that none of those issues cause the game to be "eye bleed material", which was your initial assertion in response to another grossly exaggerated...

    You know, you're right. I've been doing this all wrong for years. Bros, I'm gonna throw a Blu Ray party at my place. I'm gonna stream everything to my Switch so that we can get maximum sharpness! Lol at that stupid big screen TV with its dinosaur pixels. Oh man this is gonna be awesome. I can't...

    Contrast setting? I'm talking about contrast ratio, which is, you know, the single most important aspect of picture quality, period. And any truly high end TV is going to blow away the Switch's screen in contrast. I never said the difference between 720p and 4k can't be massive, just that a...
