Well, it's a hidden gem in the modern (emulation) era. I never heard of it until recently myself and it seems to be having a bit of a resurgence in terms of classic game youtubers discovering it over the last couple years. Sega CD unfortunately had a pretty meager install base in-era, but I'm...

This is kind of cool: Watched Hellraiser 2 for the first time, and in the third act, the hot main character ends up wearing what is very clearly the Deathbed Dress. Same cross-tie, same color, same low-cut back. Pretty sure that's where they got the design, given how influential the first two...

Yeah, this guy is great at either debunking or digging deeper, whichever the situation is more worthy of. Probably my favorite YT channel now. He doesn't just outright dismiss ideas, which some people will look at as some kind of endorsement of those ideas. But really, we shouldn't outright...

Re: Consciousness, that kind of ties into the idea that we're in a simulation. In that idea, UFOs aren't bound by our laws of physics/gravity because they aren't part of the simulation. And if us talking about them wills them into appearing more, that also ties into simulation theory. As far as...

The only downside of Y5 is that it has a bunch of non-Kiryu characters and you might not know who any of them are having missed Y4, which'd probably take some wind out of the game's sails. Also I think you might have to buy the Y3/Y4/Y5 collection to get to it. I'd say plan on 0/1/2 and check...

I've heard that the best D&D game for early consoles was Eye of the Beholder on Sega CD. Kind of a hidden gem that hardly anyone knows about. Later on you have stuff like Chronicles of Mystara and the big CRPGs. As far as like, pre-1998 D&D games go, Eye of the Beholder was top of the heap...

Bought the Romancing Saga 2 Remaster on Switch, since I wanted something similar after Live-a-Live. $7 at the moment on eShop. Only an hour in but I can't say I recommend this one. There are no QOL improvements over the SFC version (and anyone who played the old SaGa games via fan translations...

Doc prescribed me Abilify and Seroquel because of my raging ADHD and bouts of intermittently finding it hard to get things done. Previously got Adderall and stopped taking it because it gave me so much goddamn energy that it was straight-up impossible to sleep for 2-3 days. And that's on a 10MG...

Nope. Commies are like spiders, they don't just forfeit their prey. They'll fabricate fake support and prop up movies like this before they'll ever admit that it isn't working. It's all part of a larger mission to spread the gospel.

Yeah, Kiwami 1 and 2 are remakes of Yakuza 1 and 2. They're both REALLY good. I think Y0 and Y1 are the best one-two punch of story in the series. Y2 is the best-looking of the lot, I mean it looks amazing in action. Y3 and Y4 are significantly less upgraded visually and didn't get the full-on...

Whoa. This is also one of the small group of "games I got at a flea market" from that early-00's era. Third Age, Thing, Predator: Concrete Jungle, Jade Empire, KOTOR1 and 2, Shadow Hearts 1 and 2, probably something else I'm forgetting. It's tough to go back to them graphically but at some point...

Went to Gringo's Tacos in NYC (well, the Jersey City one). Got their world famous "Reaper Taco" Took literally one bite of it and was done. And I'm somewhat of an ultra-spicy food connoisseur. I keep a stock of Blair's Mega Death at home to dab on burgers, for crying out loud. Well, this one...

Interesting how this is getting: 6/10 on IMDB user reviews 2.6/10 on Metacritic user reviews and yet 99% on RT user reviews Da fuq? And most of the positive RT user reviews are one-sentence posts from generic first names. I've never seen big tech try so hard to prop up failing products while...

Whoever that SoM composer is, they're probably my third-favorite game composer behind Yasunori Mitsuda and Hitoshi Sakimoto. ...yeah I've never been as into Uematsu's work as other people, but he's probably #4 if it helps. I thought Octopath was an actual Square game, not a pseudo-indie Square...

Finished Resident Evil 2, almost done with Live-a-Live on Switch, basically on the final chapter. Friend came over and got me to play Grand Theft Auto V for the first time. So now I'm playing that. Finishing the TLOU2 slog (which I'm about 25-30% of the way through) was next, but forget that...

Just had a thought, maybe someone who understands time better can follow up on it. First of all, I've always been of the opinion that the massive uptick in UFO sightings in the late 40's was a result of our nuclear detonations. Either because someone saw them and came for a better look, or...

I bet this has something to do with that Nashville bomber who got completely memory-holed. As I recall, he blew up one of these "windowless skyscrapers owned by AT&T"

I don't normally ever get hyped up over indie games (unless it's that Mother 4* project or AM2R) but I gotta say, this Trinity Trigger game has my attention. The music is SO GOOD and so similar to Secret of Mana that I'm wondering if it has the same composer. Also, ring menus and multiplayer...

Yep. Putting aside all the stuff we complain about regarding the story, I'm really glad this exists at all. Brings back a lot of memories.

Been playing the Live-a-Live remaster. It's a good time if you like obscure Super Famicom RPGs. They changed very little from the original outside of the graphics which obviously got a big overhaul. This means that there are a few unpolished things, like the Prehistoric chapter generally being...

The rumor right now is a buyout of Punk's contract because he doesn't want to come back to work if The Elite are there. He made 9.3 million in AEW since he joined, which is actually slightly more than he made in HIS ENTIRE WWE RUN. So he's literally pissing away ungodly amounts of money here...

Yeah. The Why Files has algorithm issues too. Guy has like 550K subscribers and yet whenever I search for his channel on most devices, it doesn't pop up in the search bar until I type out the full name. And then his actual videos will start like 3 videos down, behind other people's videos...

It's moot now but I was gonna say pretty nonexistent for the time being, unfortunately.

Still bugs me that they (totally unnecessarily) attached the Reunion title to CC instead of saving it for FF7R Pt 3 where it would have been the perfect title. I particularly love this track for some reason. Listened to it a lot in college.

You're right, Moxley is on the top salary tier. I couldn't remember which one he was on. He was paid well above the EVPs in 2019 too. TK has everyone organized into tiers in terms of salary / importance, with extras/Dark staff at Tier 0 (pay per appearance). Nyla and Britt are the top tier for...

Goddammit, all the info I got on this was completely wrong. My bad, thought they had it on good authority. Why would the people involved even do something like this and not connect it, given Cobra Kai's popularity? Absolutely baffling. ...Who are you?

Yeah I agree. Still bugs me that we didn't get a Demon Souls DLC or some Bloodborne enhancements.

MJF is really good in the ring, watch his match with Darby from Full Gear 2021.

What is this total word salad? Sounds to me like they're backpedaling hard and basically admitting this is a fantasy. Whatta shitshow. Well, it's good to see this board call something and have it be a widespread opinion days later, instead of the usual 6+ months that it takes the mainstream to...

I think MJF wants to be paid somewhere in the neighborhood of what Cody Rhodes is making now. IIRC it's around 4-5M a year plus merch. Nobody knows what MJF is making currently but it isn't that. I'm going to guess 2M and that's being generous. If my info is correct, Cody Money is like "top 5"...

This one is also good. He does a good job towing the company line of -don't talk about the scrum- even while "shooting". And even when freaking Helwani keeps going back to it. Guy isn't planning on going anywhere, but he really does want a bidding war to happen over him. If TK doesn't match...

I played all the non-mainline games, so it feels like there's a lot of them. That's cool for people who are into it. I'm just a bit weary of the series. I vastly preferred the old style of FE, where the characters were less anime and more of a Suikoden-ish design. These new ones don't do much...

Sounds like this new game is indeed the original Valkyrie Profile, just re re re remade. If it's comparable in look and sound (the things I liked about the original) it might be worth a run for me. I've already got a game traffic jam at the moment though so it'll have to be real close to the...

Soon as I watched the first clip I was about 80% sure it was staged by him. He's standing off to the left side of the screen to make room for where the ghost is in the shot, then it appears right after he says "mass grave". If you want something to look real it needs to be hard to spot, off the...

Is that Valkyrie Profile game on 9/29 a remaster of the original one on PS1? I always wanted to play it back in the day but never got a chance to and never looked into what kinds of remakes are available. I suppose now it'd be easy enough to get ahold of the original in some form, but, you...

Just realized, if the villains of this movie are the French... I just recently watched Prey, and it also had French guys as the villains, and they were really gross and despicable. What's with the sudden onslaught of anti-frenchmen movies? What'd France do? They're like the most racially...

Probably. At this point I default to "there's more to the story" in literally all of these old cases. Like how the "Tulsa race riot" was more about a black dude being arrested for attempted rape and then a mob of black dudes with guns showed up at the courthouse demanding his immediate...

Yeah, that writeup at least sounds balanced and factual rather than a full-on BJ from someone who uses the term "slay queen" in casual speech unironically.

Crisis Core is good, yeah. I'm guessing they're remaking it because Zack is going to figure into FF7R Pt 2. ...which I still totally disagree with, but I'm glad to see CC finally get a console version. I'm sure FFT will get remastered sooner or later. Last I checked it got a version on PSP or...
