    The Katie Katro Thread

    Australians have mouths that are too laterally big for their faces. This girl has one that is too vertically big for her face. In some pics its good, and in some, like the one above, its all teeth and gums. It makes her look neeiigghhborly. Must have to do with facial muscles and tendon...

    That was also in the time of the Cryptoboom and no competition, which has passed. You started being able to get 2080Ti's again for $999 Sept last year. As I understand it, most of these cards are on 8nm, which means that the 50% we thought we were getting became the 35% we are seeing and...

    Won't go anywhere past the Blue Light of Death, no signal of any sort. Trying to get into safe mode it just powers back off. Called Sony, they will do a repair for $100 and are sending me all the stuff to cross-ship it. If nothing else, hopefully it gets my kids save games back. If not, its...

    The Batman

    This trailer looks amazing. We'll see how the whole project turns out but this trailer gives me chills; Love this first look at the approach they are taking. It's a long wait between now and move release, though: 14 months? Wow.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    If there isn't any Crypto-bubble to blow the doors off the prices of these, then Nvidia is going to have to show value for these. Particularly when AMD is right around the corner with another potential giant-killer product that they might not take the performance crown with but might be willing...

    So after 6 years my original PS4 (got it with Destiny release) gave up the ghost and died with the BLOD. My kids have been using it but still sucks right before launch to have died. Yes, I have tried everything but the washer trick (new power and hmdi cables, new hdd, starting with without a...

    Marvel's Avengers

    I have seen some reviews that were positive (The Kinda Funny guys seemed to have loved it) but Skill Up for me is mostly where I am at on the game.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    I am thinking I am going to wait for whatever AMD has in December if these are 8nm Samsung cards and dont top the 2080Ti by 50%. There won't be another Bitcoin run to push these cards to stratospheric heights and it might be good to pair an AMD card with a Zen 4 CPU. Edit: That's not to say I...

    The lack of main objective was more like trying to even read what the objective was, sometimes it would have a circle if it was close, sometimes not so much: -Looking for the Jarvis Hard drive in the "Trophy Room"; -Looking for the HARM Room "In the hanger" which actually meant backtracking in a...

    Yeah, I went ahead and got it for the PS4. Here is my vaguely unordered notes: I have a ton of issues with the game so far. -People who were putting on the Destiny vs Anthem axis, it compares unfavorably for me to both. And they aren't things that are going to be fixed between now and release...

    Marvel's Avengers

    They definitely don't want to pay the actors for their likenesses in this one. Looks like the Batman anime but in Not-Japan so it lacks the cool factor? These are the same old complaints; we have comic book version(s)/MCU live action version, and for whatever reason, now this version. If the...

    With what they have been showing, I feel a lot better about this and will probably be playing maybe even pre-ordering. I still dislike Ms. Marvel as a character from the comics but as I understand it, you won't be forced to play as her for long, and then the story opens up into pairings where...

    So lots of times I don't buy the full on Collectors Editions because I don't have a place for all the stuff, I will always buy the Hardback Strategy guide because I love books, particularly for games this beautiful. In this case I look around and WTF? Nothing. How dare they make a game this...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    This game of chicken is ridiculous but wow was the 23rd a huge perception misstep on MS's part. Sony wow'ed, and MS was basically saying, don't worry about having to buy a new console because your games will still look like they did on the old one. Nothing about the strategies has changed and...

    It's this: Three entirely different facets of the gaming industry. Sony has no other mouths to feed and has to have exclusives. But can they generate enough IPs to truly replicate the model they are trying to emulate, Apple? It may end up under the same umbrella if it isn't careful. Microsoft...

    Theater Chain Death Watch? Chapter 11s inc

    Phase 3 but you're right. After the Infinity Saga, Marvel was supposed to be all about D&I. Now if they add and "E", meh. I am bummed about Tenet, though. But I will never willingly go to a regular theater again. IPIC Theaters is the only way to see a movie.

    Blood Mathilda May is Best Mathilda May. I loved this movie so much as a kid. It was like every bad movie I watched on cable rolled up into one Sci Fi- Fantasy- Zombie- Vampire-Apocalypse- Romance- Horror movie in one. With an appearance by Patrick GD Stewart in it.

    I feel the tug between this in the story they are trying to tell and the manipulative, shitty way they are trying to tell it. When the story of the 2010's is told, this whole "subverting expectations" bullshit will be looked back upon as a cheap, pulp narrative shortcut rather than doing the...

    So while I have owned TLOU Remastered for years, I have never sat down to play through it.

    Remember they have a built in VAT, so lots of things come out to be the same price in USD. If its £599, I would expect it to be $599 US plus tax. Even so, that sounds expensive. I would expect a regular system to be $499 or less, $449. They must be expecting the Xbox Series X to be $499 or...

    I really want a 43" 120Hz monitor of some sort. Or Gsync/FreeSync such that you can have something better than 60. The video smoothness of those monitors playing at 90/120Hz is just so amazing but I am not willing to play on a monitor smaller than 39" and less than 4k. Consoles at 60 look...
