    Atomic Heart

    I have a new consumer principle that my wife and I have been following. If it pisses off the right people, we buy it. So far, it has been working great. My wife is enjoying Hogwarts Legacy and I am digging this game so far. The SJW crowd is so far up their own asses that literally all you...

    Hogwarts Legacy

    Wife is really into the game. Funniest thing to come out of this so far was the Girlfriend reviews people being thrown under the bus by their fellow wokesters. Then the girl (Shelby I think) goes on a side rant about how the goblin thing makes her mad as a Jew and how the game is "aggresively...

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    You are probably absolutely right. But I reject the idea that every movie or story has to lead to another installment to be of any entertainment value.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Yeah my company is sniffing around on this for the fourth time in a year. I told them the day they hired me there was zero fucking way I was going to drive 90 minutes across town to sit in a shitty cube with an eye bleeder monitor while users come fuck with me all day. I was going to turn down...

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    Power Girl is best version of Supergirl. Also, I can't stand Ezra but I really liked the Snyder cut of JL so I may give this a try. If this bombs I wonder if WB goes completely tits up before Gunn even gets his plan off the ground. That would be the ultimate irony after how Cavil got done dirty.

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    Also as entertaining as the game was, it was basically a track meet. Very little effective Defense was played on either side, which is why one fumble decided the entire game.

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    I watched five games a year a week and never saw anything like that sequence. But the other take on all of that is that the Eagles clock management was Mike McCarthy levels of bad. They were constantly riding the delay of game boundary (something else that needs addressing by the rules...

    If they want consistency in that substitution shit, then they need to make it so the ref gives a signal for when its ok to snap and assess a 5 yarder if they snap prior. But to someone elses point, the gaming of the challenge system needs to be dealt with as well. I didn't think there could...

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    I watch a lot of Joggerball, even the terrible thursday night games. I have NEVER seen something like that play out. As for the holding, yeah I get it big money QB who is hobbling the refs are not going to call much holding, but there was some clear tackle from the back shit that really needed...

    PS- The phantom TD run by Rape Ape Rothlesburger remains the worst call by officials in SB history.

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    I really did not have a dog in the fight on this, but the fucking constant ball gargling of Mahomes by everyone and lopsided officiating actually had me pulling for the Eagles by the end. And the officiating was bad in that game. They had been letting shit go like that all fucking night, but...

    The Last of Us

    Here is that whole Bill sequence as it originally played out. A lot of character arc material got cut out so they could make Brokeback Zombros.

    The Last of Us

    My biggest issue with the Gay Ron Swanson episode was actually not the gayness. In the original game, the entire encounter with Bill set the tone in a lot of ways. And Frank's suicide was more of a shock that impacted everyone. In their efforts to win awards with their stunning brave bear...

    What are you playing?

    Elden Ring for the fifth time....... Had just beaten GOW Ragnorok and Tactics Ogre before that. Elden Ring has spoiled me for all othe games, gameplay wise, and GOW for story. And once you play Tactics Ogre, there basically is not another tactics RPG worth playing.

    I think you could credibly put Goff in that mix, as well. Goff had a rough patch in there, but Detroit was fucking ridiculously good on offense for most of the season.

    Anyone old enough to have been around during the Marvin Lewis days when they would usually flub playoff games due to bone headed personal foul calls remembers enough to hate the Bungles. Plus it takes a shit fanbase to generate real hatred. Cinci fans got nothing on Boston area sports fans...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    First Failure? Fallout 76 ring any bells? I am out. Not buying a new computer or an XBox just to beta test their shitty buggygame, now with wokeness. Making it XBox console exclusive removed any interest in this game for me.

    Vikings have pretty much followed this pattern every year for a while now. Look good early, back into the playoffs, then lose to the first real team they have to play. Plus for whatever reason, the Giants seem to have the NFCN's number and have forever. Nothing about that game even remotely...

    God of War: Ragnarok

    Actually liking the story, but yeah they somehow made Atreus a buzz killington. Judge as Kratos is just plain perfect, as is the gu doin Mimir and the woman playing Freya. Biggest complaint for me are the huge difficulty spikes in some points (Berserker Kings are all over the place in terms of...

    All around team fail, complete with a dumb 4th Down attempt by MLF and sub par play by both Jones and Rodgers. Detroit deserved to go to the playoffs.

    I would say that anything said by UK autist who snorts cocaine off another dudes dick to impress a hooker is immediately suspect. Also I am not the one trying to completely discount other possibilities. I have stated repeatedly that the ComCorbis hit thing is possible, jsut not likely. The...

    Gav has mentioned the same thing. They rush dudes to the local hospitol for concussions and other far less serious injuries all the time for NFL games. That he sat in the lot that long and there has been complete silence about that delay is very odd. I am curious if they found something odd...

    Even that source... just look at 2021 compared to literally any other year (and admittedly, it appears to have trended upward since 2000) and ask yourself what conclusion you should objectively draw? NFL Football has had only one prior death in it (ironically from micarditis related causes) and...

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    Similar in some ways (ignoring that its soccer for the moment) but still way more drawn out. That guy collapsed much more slowly and was on hands and knees for a bit before laying flat and croaking. Damar literally stood up, took one step, and completely collapsed. Still an absurdly rare to...

    Possible, yes. Never denied that. But statistical likelyhood is an entirely different matter. This could be the first time unicorn event, but as I said I am very skeptical. Brahma's list is far more plausable than the odds of that hit setting off a cardiac shutdown. And I say this as...

    Those are also more plausible than a simple one in a million freak impact, as well as having the virtue of having actually occurred before. Roids I would be somewhat skeptical on, given he was a a DB. But also consider how much cocaine 90s era FB players were on (and roids too in many cases)...

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    Because hits like that (and much worse ones) happen routinely literally thousands of times a year across many sports (go watch a Rugby game some time). Its not impossible, but it is a statistical unicorn compared to the odds that something else was messing with his cardiovascular system prior...

    @Kaines Sure we can. As soon as all the stupid woke slogans get yanked off the helmets and fields, plus all the fucking kneeling type horse shit stops. The core fan base are not the ones who put political shit into the game and you can bet your ass the left is going to find a way to leverage...

    Soccer players have been keeling over for a while now, but no one in the US gives one shit about soccer. Having some young healthy guy keel over on a nationally televised football game when people are already starting to question the vax shit? Yeah even if its not the vax, their propaganda arm...

    Underrated/Overrated Video Games

    Underrated: Oni was an awesome blend of 3rd person brawler and shooter with great gameplay for its time. Shogo was arguably one of the best story driven mech games ever made with a strong anime influence. Beyond Good and Evil falls into the same category. For us really old farts, Star Flight...

    JRPGs

    Supposedly scaling is busted on archers, so you see this monster attack value (my version of Arycele is sitting at around 1300) but its like you are fighting shit ten levels or more higher and all damage is practically chip damage. Guaranteed charm is ok, if you prefer that to Petrify to CC...

    JRPGs

    There are some pretty decent fan mods that do this or even have a whole new story for the steam version of the game. The PSP version of Tactics Ogre had mods out for it that really made it the best version of the game out there (One Vision mod). If you have the setup, I highly recommend them...

    On the one hand Ambiturner loves going all in on stupid shit, but on the other hand this has to be the weirdest white knight derail I have seen you do. Either case, you two fighting is way better entertainment than everything that happened after the Tua meltdown in the NFL, so credit where it...
