    The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

    Same with Terminator: Dark Fate. Had flashbacks to T2 that were the best moments of the entire movie. I thought about Matrix 4 some more today. And given time to really think about it... ....it still sucks

    The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

    Yeah, the scene where they went into the Matrix to fight. The tattooed chick was wearing a pretty hot outfit. Hell, even blue-haired chick looked better than usual in that scene with some sort of netted top on. That brief scene was the movie's only redeeming feature

    Vanguard - I don't give a fuck if it's dead, It's still brown as fuck (Download link in 1st post)

    Wait, this is like a real thing that's going on again now? Game looks like it's totally the successor to EQ (the "real" EQ2) in a way EQ2 sure as hell doesn't. And Pantheon doesn't either, for that matter. I'd love to play this, if I could clone myself and have some free time to jump in with...

    Revisiting my shot-calling here. I have zero free time until Monday so I want to hit the ground running when I can. Switch: -FNAF5 (not long enough) PS4/5: -Ratchet and Clank -Rez Infinite (not long enough) -Resident Evil -Resident Evil 2 Wii U -Monster Hunter 3 (way too long) -Wave Race 64...

    I'm glad your dad is doing better. I spent a good portion of the Mischief launch group in a hospital because my mom had an allergic reaction to something and needed for me to go get her. So for many hours I was in the hospital playing on a laptop with poor reception, and that's after ducking...

    Remember that Hentai Vs. Evil game I picked up with the last few bucks from the last challenge? The graphics are surprisingly good so I thought maybe I was in for a real game. Then I checked this... ...22 minutes? The game is $9.99. Da. Fuq.

    The Authoritative Final Fantasy & Bravely Default thread

    Lot of games trapped on 3DS that I wish would get released on Switch or other platforms. Bravely Default, Bravely Second, MH4U, Samus Returns, the only DQ7 remaster on ANY platform since the horribly dated PS1 original, etc. And all of these things are way overpriced because there's no other...

    Utnayan backlog challenge: part 2 ends Jan 31

    Winner take all IMO, half the prize going to a random person seems more like a participation trophy. Or if you want it to not be winner take all to encourage more participation (especially if one person pulls way ahead early), do 2nd and 3rd place prizes. 1st 50, 2nd 30, 3rd 20. Something like...

    Utnayan backlog challenge: part 2 ends Jan 31

    I agree, as long as it's done in the timeframe obviously. And the amount you have left in any given main story or plat doesn't really matter to me here either. Point is you did it. And if you're 80% done with a game and knock it off, that last 20% can vary wildly in size, so you should get more...

    I say a combination of B and C above for the second contest. -Runs Jan 1st to Jan 31st -You post your list of goals for the month, call your shot if you will. You don't have to finish the whole list, or even stick to it. This is just to "announce your participation" and show your level of...

    Monster Hunter Series

    That's good to hear. I'm gonna stick with MH3U. It's cool to see the evolution of various serieses, provided you don't need to jump back too far. I've found that the 2001-2008 pre-HD timeframe is the hardest for me to return to in terms of console games. PS2/GC games especially have this weird...

    Utnayan backlog challenge: part 2 ends Jan 31

    I might need to scratch MH3U off my "ten objectives for the month" because it's like 70 hours long. Unless we're going for a points-based system based on HLTB hours after all, then it'd be worth going ahead with now. However either way if I go ahead with MH3U, I probably won't beat anything...

    Monster Hunter Series

    Sounds like MH3U is a good starting point if it's a big departure, and the start of modern MH if you will. I probably won't do MH4U side-by-side anymore because yeah, it shits all over 3. I figured I could play one at home and one on the go. I'll probably just book it through 3 and then...

    Monster Hunter Series

    I really liked what I saw of World/Iceborne and decided to go back a few games. Starting with MH3U and MH4U (yeah, simultaneously), then Generations, Rise, and finally back to World. MH4U seems way more advanced than 3U on QOL and so forth, it's surprising considering they launched close...

    Emulation - Retroarch?

    When I bought an LG C1, I was supposed to get a $200 bluetooth speaker set for free. Which happens to be something I kinda need for a new apartment. Well, FedEx lost it along the way or something, but never admitted to it because in their records it was delivered. So I contact LG about it and...

    Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

    Seconding anyone who has mentioned Ip Man here. Best martial-arts movies I've watched in recent years were the Ip Man series and the two The Raid movies. Especially The Raid, holy shit those movies are good. I still need to see Ip Man 4.

    Shazam! (2019)

    Watched this during my Superhero Movie Catch-Up Binge today. WW84, Black Widow, Shazam, and Shang-Chi in that order. I'd say that this was by FAR my favorite of the four. Like it isn't even close. It's also probably the best DC movie. I went in expecting nothing and got an extremely fun time...

    Black Widow (2020)

    Yeh, this had the opportunity to be a great origin story type deal with her and Hawkeye teaming up. I understand why they wanted her to stand alone for once though. Found the movie to be pretty drab and depressing. The thing with BW breaking her own nose was super idiotic and meme-worthy. It...

    Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

    Watched about half of this, will watch the rest later. I like that (spoiler alert) the bad guy is basically the real Mandarin. Before Iron Man 3 IIRC there was a lot of fuss about the character being an "Asian charicature" so they recast it as the English guy and then it was "whitewashed". I...

    Here's a wrestling board I used to frequent: https://officialfan.proboards.com/thread/616496/why-nyla-washington Since mid-2020 it has turned into nutjob-ville where people spend way too much time critiquing things for offensiveness and looking for things to find offensive in other people's...

    The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

    A great Running Man adaptation could be made using the Kyle Rittenhouse trial / Kenosha incident that caused it as metaphor and inspiration. I don't think any major studio will do anything remotely pro-rightwing though.

    The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

    Keanu has definitely made some bombs lately. John Wick has really kept him afloat though. And I liked that one movie where he had a three-way with that bonkers-hot French actress who is in everything now and some other chick who I guess is Eli Roth's GF. I mainly liked it because I got to look...

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    I'm gonna use the ghee for buttering steaks. Been using regular butter for a bit now, so now I can stop buying it and use ghee instead. I have about 1 ribeye a week, sometimes 2, sometimes filet mignon or top sirloin. I get them from Omaha Steaks in big orders every few months, in addition to...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    I didn't actually watch the movie again, just checked out a few things to see if they were as I remembered. (I got it at the local library along with a few things I do want to rewatch). Saw it in theater with some friends when it came out and we had mixed responses. Both me and the black guy in...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Yep, and then with PS4, the rumored next Xbox was Xbox 720, but that'd make people think of 720p, which was already subpar with PS4 being 1080p across the board, so they went with another stupid name. Then for PS5 they couldn't go Xbox Two, even though "One" set that up... Same reason iPhone...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Yeah, I just installed Elder Scrolls Online, 80 GB. It had this big thing that was like "Free PS5 upgrade", 100 GB. I didn't have room for both and suspected I could just get the PS5 upgrade without having the PS4 version, so I deleted the 80 GB one and installed the 100 GB one. Works fine, has...

    Resident Evil Remastered

    Beat RE: Zero. Even remastered on PS4 you can really tell it's a Gamecube game. Can't say it's a must-play or anything and the inventory makes it actually pretty damn tedious but at least it's fairly short. I finished it in about 8 hours. Started RE1 Remastered and expected it to be a big step...

    Yeah I really hope they give Moxley a PPV title win when he comes back. It could be one of the biggest wrestling returns ever and the guy deserves it. Give him the title at DoN, let him be a face champ all summer and get the reign he should have had before, then turn him heel in the fall leading...

    Black Widow (2020)

    Yeah. I'm watching this movie now (back to back with WW84, God help me) and all I can think is that I wish they'd made it ten years ago instead like they should have. 10 years ago ScarJo in an entire Natasha movie would have been a license to print money. Movie is way too dark and dismal for a...

    Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

    Watched half of this when it came out, got bored. Today, about a year later, I watched the other half of this. Divided into sections, it was alright. The bad guy was obviously Trump, but at least he got to turn out to be an okay guy at the end rather than being an irredeemable genocidal Nazi or...

    What predictions/wishes do people have for AEW in 2022? Mine: -Hangman doesn't have a very long reign. I don't think he's ready for it and a long good guy reign when the good guy isn't super-over might hurt the ratings. I think Moxley (after returning to a hero's welcome) wins it from him at...

    Yeh, I don't know why they even took the belt off Miro in the first place. Feels like Sammy lost momentum since he won it. Miro also felt poised for the main event and went nowhere since. So if Miro wasn't going to be a main-eventer, and Sammy was just going to lose the title fairly soon, why...

    I decided that I'd probably recoup my losses faster if I moved from SHIB back to MATIC. Never should have left MATIC in the first place. However now MATIC is up around 2.80, thought it was still in the 2.00 area. So I don't know if a purchase even makes sense. I think it'll reach 10 within the...

    Terminator: Resistance

    The first DLC lets you play as a terminator. No sex scenes in that DLC however. I maintain that the game is worth playing, even moreso now that it's temporarily $25 on the Playstation Store.

    All this metaverse crap sounds to me like "corporations have full control over the future and need this to keep everyone occupied while they do that" Essentially Idiocracy, except the Baitin' Network is replaced with VR headsets.

    On a side note, I bought a few PS4 games in Europe, with French covers and everything.

And one of them is Dissidia NT which lives...

    Terminator: Resistance

    Yeah, I'm about halfway through it. It's nearly as long as the main game and a lot of fun. The visuals are improved (since the DLC was built from the ground up for PS5). Not only is it nearly the length of the main game, it's even more challenging in general, especially if you rush. I go...

    I vote yes on 3 and also yes on 2. Key thing with 2 is to adhere to the HLTB site numbers. So if someone spends 200 hours on Witcher 3 they don't get 200 points, that's their problem if they wanted to live in the game that long. You get the average complete time in points, no deviation. I say...
