    DBZ Xenoverse

    Yeah, I still haven't broken myself from using my "beam" attack (still using Vegeta's Gallick Gun or whatever) the moment I knock someone into the ground. I know it isn't going to hit, but it just flows so naturally that I have a hard time breaking myself from it. =/ That said, the chase...

    The Authoritative Final Fantasy & Bravely Default thread

    Yeah, you can get summons (even on the Snes version) for a few different mobs. I've seen Imp and Bomb, personally. It's super rare but does happen. Granted, they suck balls compared to the real summons, but it is an interesting dynamic that never really gets touched on.

    Hrm, I'm to the point where they introduced the pair of time fuckers. I've literally had zero issue with any enemy by just using x (light attack) comboed 3-4 times and then finishing with pressing y (hard attack) until it does the ground hit. Then zooming in with the L trigger (dash... I...

    FF Legend 3 was really quite good as well, and reasonably deep. It also had a hidden ending and when it came out in the early 90s that wasn't really a thing. It also had a lot of time travel stuff that was expanded on in Crono Trigger to an extent. That early FF style of gameplay really lent...

    Been re-plowing through this series the last week or so. First season starts out super silly campy, then it just ramps up from there. Second season has Ganicus, so it is straight baller. The new dude in S3-4 started being good like halfway through S3, then it was just a great show straight...

    Computer Issues

    Once you are in safe mode, you need to go into device manager and manually start up audio (you will most likely need to turn on the windows services for it as well, by typing "services" into the start window search bar and then going through the list and enabling Audio services one at a time)...

    Computer Issues

    Use msconfig.exe and change Normal boot to Safe Mode while you are in Windows normally. You may want to enable networking so you can attempt to read posts here (it's another one of the boot options in msconfig.exe) and try troubleshooting from there.

    Computer Issues

    Try the safe mode deal I mentioned above before going to the bad port thing/broken mic angle. Safe mode doesn't load the vast majority of services/non essential drivers and zero applications. If you experience an issue there, it is almost 100% hardware related.

    Are you using sound recorder to test your mic, or another application? To test another possible theory, when you start the pc, open up the volume control panel to input devices (before the mic normally shits the bed) and unplug literally every peripheral attached to the computer, including...

    Right click the CCCleaner program and select "Run as Administrator" and that might solve your problem with it not letting you clean files. Alternatively, boot into safe mode and then do it from there. To check if it is a problematic program, use the msconfig.exe program (just type msconfig...

    This is going to sound silly, potentially, but do you have the driver disk for your motherboard? What you should do, is completely remove the realtek sound drivers and related software, then put the disk in and look for the system audio drivers. It -should- autodefault back to it without you...

    The Matrix (1999)

    For some reason, every time I think of the sequels, I get the same stupid pair of scenes in my head. The first time where Agent Smith comes into the real world, and stabs a lady with a scapel in the stomach and she instantly dies. Then the scene with Trinity after the ship crash in the 3rd...

    Yeah, while I think he was a bit overrated (and definitely juicing at one point, thanks FrankenMir), I always sort of hope he pulls off the win. He just seems like an underdog that you can root for, you know? Now it's just Arlovski for the win in May and the HW division might be interesting again.

    Well, there's probably a few points to be made about that. One, outside of the extreme edge of gaming (4k) just about everything can be played on earlier iterations of current hardware. CPUs are still overpowering standard game use by a large margin, and applications in general haven't jumped...

    That is straight out of Cool Hand Luke's, a restaurant chain. Fried onions are ok, but in my experience it tends to turn the texture to something I would refer to as slimy. Also onions are amazing, especially raw. Raw red onions sliced thin and mixed with shredded lettuce and pepperocinis...

    Monster Hunter Series

    Yeah, the same goes for penalties. You have to get -10 penalty in a stat for it to trigger, otherwise the negative skill points mean nothing. The camera isn't all that bad, it's just making sure that when fighting big stuff you hit L pretty frequently to keep it centered. That way you can...

    Eh, unless there's some hidden graphic options or something or you really can't handle 3-4s loading times, the game doesn't feel like it was designed for the new 3ds at all. No problems with the camera (I have the camera controls on both the d-pad and the screen d-pad and it seems pretty...

    Monster Hunter Series

    It isn't nearly that bad. MH games tend to ramp up difficulty with mob placement/location as you play through the story. For example, you aren't running into Rathians within the first dozen or so missions of MHTri, you instead run into Great Jaggis and I think the weird banana water monster...

    Jupiter Ascending (2015)

    Jesus, the 13th Warrior is one of my favorite movies =| It had tons of story! It was a retelling of the Beowulf tale, given a more realistic context based off a Michael Crighton novel called "Eaters of the Dead." The entire duel scene with the giant red head dude is amazing.

    Granted, I read the book Dune (none of the others, oddly enough. Had some hard sci-fi nerd friends who kept telling me to stay away from pseudoreligious science fiction at the time, and according to them that was any Herbert book but "Dune." I was 10, shit happens) when I was 10 and had...

    That show will forever live on in my happy memories. Just like reading Captain N comics because at the tender age of 9 I was an easy sell for corporate marketing. Also, this might be pretty cool.

    [Manga] Bleach (spoilers to current)

    So apparently, since Ichio is Half Hollow/Half Shinigami/Half Quincy, his Quincy blood reacted to him swinging a sword near the soul king, and instead of attacking Ywhatever, he swung at the soul king, because Quincies hate soul kings. Granted, if it were just shinigami, how come he didn't...

    I'm interested in Type-0, largely from reading the wiki (not the spoilers stuff, just background story) and knowing it is going to be a KH style game with a rotating main character. That honestly seems kind of cool, and for some reason the whole feel of the visuals reminds me of Vagrant Story...

    When I was working with it 6 years ago (I haven't purchased it for home use) our wild game supplier didn't refer to it as venison.

    I would tend to agree. It has a slightly gamey flavor that some people absolutely love, but for personal use it is just one of those "well, I -have- to use this" type decisions I think. My neighbor/coworker will regale me with stories about how awesome his kill was and then provide me with...

    That would explain every interaction I've had with venison, since it is basically always lean leaning towards there is no fat whatsoever. When you do slow cooking with lean meats, you gotta take the term "slow" and apply it logically to the problem. Slow cooking for 10 hours should be...
