    Dragon's Lair

    For some of the light gun games where the gun was on a flexible tether as opposed to being stuck on a rigid stand, I used to buy player 1 and player 2 and just go guns akimbo lol. You could basically just rapid fire everything and alternate your reloads so you were never not throwing stuff at...

    Tarkov has a barrier of entry issue and the game is very "sim" heavy in the vein of DayZ/Arma. Arc Raiders is much easier for a casual player to get into - you have multiple safe inventory slots where you can keep the content of it if you die, your base has a NPC which will automatically...

    lol it's absolutely not. Marathon in part indefinitely pushed back their game after the Arc Raiders tech test because it exposed how shitty Marathon was

    The tech test was amazing - the style is basically a retro future 70s aesthetic and your character is basically a hobo that gets sent out on resource runs in post apocalyptic ruins filled with other players and robots that want to kill you. Most of the “arc raiders bad” is due to the “dei”...

    Dragon's Lair

    There’s no more arcade culture anymore. 80s and 90s they were packed and had all sorts of games. I used to have friends I met there and people all knew who was good at certain types of games Now you go into one and it’s 90% ticket games and maybe 10% regular video games

    Fallout 76

    New expansion announced that takes place in Ohio Walter Goggin’s ghoul character also shows up (chronology wise that is curious - Fallout76 takes place only 25 years after the bombs fall and the tv show takes place post fallout4 which is the latest entry in terms of chronological order)...

    Dragon's Lair

    Man, fuck those 2 games. They were quarter guzzlers. I beat Revolution X, but never beat T2. I got to the final fight with the T-1000 and couldn't knock him into the molten metal

    Dragon's Lair

    I mean it came out in like 94 or 95, CGI in games was pretty primitive still. FMV in games pretty much got dumped once they could make convincing CGI of human characters at a relatively reasonable cost also lol at that video, it's probably been 30 years since I've played it, but the music that...

    The Mandalorian & Grogu (2026)

    It will probably do well enough if they market it, but nowhere near as much as it would have made a few years ago If this had been released right after the season 2 finale, it would have done insane box office

    Dragon's Lair

    Phantasmagoria was a mix of traditional point & click Sierra adventure games and FMV gameplay from what I recall. It had gore and a rape scene (although it wasn’t explicit from what I recall), which is what gained it notoriety. The gore was pretty cheesy, though. I remember at the end of the...

    Dragon's Lair

    It didn’t create new rules so to speak, but it was used as a poster child for anti-video game violence senators in the 90s, like Lieberman Standard “won’t someone think of the children?!?” bullshit to censor. It did prompt the industry to create ESRB ratings and caused many major chains to not...

    Dragon's Lair

    Pretty much. Dragon's Lair basically started the whole interactive FMV, which eventually evolved into QTE. I remember our arcade in the early 90s got other FMV games like MadDog Mcree and Space Pirates - those were the light gun games where you had to shoot a specific spot to progress, but the...

    To get the authentic experience, the movie can’t start until you press a button the nanosecond you’re supposed to, otherwise you’re forced to watch more commercials

    Deus Ex Remastered

    He went from gamoran guard look-alike to "we have morpheus at home", so I guess that is an upgrade

    When I visited Italy, I must have looked really German to people, because they would walk up and just start asking shit in German lol

    Deus Ex Remastered

    The original game is pretty ancient by PC standards - I wouldn't be shocked if they are partially doing this remaster to test the waters on the appetite for the game series.

    Helldivers II

    Also cap your FPS - doesn't matter if you pick a cap of 200 or whatever. At some points in the game, especially the post-mission load screens, the game goes bonkers and will make your GPU work overtime for some reason unless you cap the FPS to a # besides "unlimited"

    Italy (Naples) or Greece (Athens)?

    Can’t speak to Greece, but I visited Italy for a couple weeks long ago Rome: pizza is ass, but the sites are great. When I went the forum was free to visit, but now I think you have to buy a pass for the forum/collosium/Palpatine hill combo. Vatican museum is also a must see, just remember...

    Considering Gunn’s involvement, I would laugh if they introduced GI Robot in live action and it gets brought through the portal and then goes full Skynet

    Alien: Earth

    Controlling xenos makes the most sense in why Weyland is so big on xenos as a bio weapon. Presumably this all goes to shit, but it at least would plant the idea and explains why they’ve got a hard on for xenos Eyeball alien is also mvp of the season

    They’ll just restrict generative AI from the plebs, let corporations offer neutered versions to said plebs, then governments (foreign or domestic) will just use it with no rules Turning the internet into a intranet wouldn’t solve anything and would do more harm than good - foreign intelligence...
