Chrono Trigger is possibly the best video game of all time*. Probably the best video game of the 20th century, almost definitely the best Super NES game of all time. If it gets remade, they really just need to enhance it to HD2D like some of the other recent remakes. Spruce up the dialogue to...

Grand Theft Auto 4 needs to be remastered; it's trapped on the PS3. Metal Gear Solid 4 needs to be remastered; it's trapped on the PS3. Dragon Quest 8 needs to be remastered; it's trapped on the PS2 (well, the only good version anyway). Bloodborne needs to be remastered with 60 FPS; it's...

Never saw this, heard it's like a 0/10 level movie. My first thought looking at the poster... is this a Mirror Universe movie? No? It's a Starfleet movie? Nu Trek really is full of horrible people who dress in black outfits and treat other people like garbage. We don't even need a Mirror...

Oh I don't care about the currency stuff even though it's what that video was talking about. I'm just mad about the disrespect shown to the captain's chair. And the glasses. And the obese women at a fucking military training facility. Trying to find an actual white man in the crowd at the...

I'm gonna be playing Fallout 2 in the very near future (only game out of 1-4 + NV that I never played). If anyone has any suggestions on builds or anything like that. Was FO2 particularly well-received? It seems a lot nicer-looking and more streamlined than FO1. IIRC a lot of folks were miffed...

Tell that to the guy on Vaniki who lost some DPS races to me and spent THREE DAYS flipping out about me in general channels to the point that he got suspended for disturbing the peace, then logged on with a different account and did the same thing with the same results. When I logged back on I...

So they basically added Gameshark codes to FF7 Remake's options menu. Jesus. It's bad enough that Square's new HD2D remakes all seem to have a toggle-able invincibility mode, which pretty much kills any need to actually put in any serious work on micromanaging your party. Why bother leveling up...

Pretty much. If they changed it to 8 weeks in Velious, 8 weeks in Luclin, 8 weeks in PoP (bonus if LDoN is included) and went from there, it would probably be as popular as Teek and have more longevity in the population, contrary to their belief over there. A lot more people would actually get...

The "we must have it be one year to reach PoP" edict is what kills these servers by perpetuating the cycle of "people leave after PoP". Selo did fine well after PoP by just getting past it sooner, rather than dragging things out and having a new server cannibalize the playerbase late in PoP...

Can't even work on AAs. Jesus Christ, indeed. What are they thinking? Edit: Oh, it's 18 weeks, not months. Well, still pretty bad.

What is this absolute horseshit everybody's talking about? I haven't watched this, but... the way this woman sits in the captain's chair actually pisses me off in a visceral way It feels like it's intended as a direct disrespect to people who value rank, order, station, being a FUCKING...

Yeah, Switch 2 hasn't been worth the $500 at all. I played Mario Kart (good but not as good as the existing one) and Metroid Prime 4 (meh and not as good as the existing 3) and then sodded off. The only other thing I even bought for the system is the BOTW remaster patch for $10. It makes the...

Not surprised that Indian and Latina have experienced a surge, guys love "ethnically-ambiguous" women. A lot more surprised that transgender is so high, considering that it seems like more of a niche curiosity from teenagers (to see what it looks like) than anything mainstream that people would...

It's weird how Draygon and Phantoon are part of the statue over Tourian. The statue should have just been Kraid and Ridley, like the original game. In theory you need to defeat Phantoon and Draygon to get to Ridley during any sort of normal playthrough, anyway. Also, the boss music should be...

Yeah, Movie 43 is fucking gross and awkward, and left me questioning why I was spending time that way. It isn't even "bad in a good way". You're wasting your time. The Raven... was good? You might have a point here with "Amanda was always a cunt". Maybe it was less egregious when she had...

Holy shit, you're right. I had to look it up, it was Lloyd Bridges who played the Admiral (and later the President in the second one). For some reason in my head for a while now I vividly pictured Leslie Nielsen being in that movie. They do look and act pretty similarly and both are incredibly...

This was a Metroid game made by people who don't know how to make Metroid. It would have been fine as a Halo game, because it basically is Halo.

I don't know how anyone can say ANY of the Naked Gun movies are the worst. All three (now four) of them are a fun, irreverent, "nothing is sacred" time. See also the original Hot Shots, which is probably the funniest movie I've ever seen, and basically Naked Gun with military instead of police...

This was a while ago so I might have already responded to it, but I'll do it again either way: Highlander: The Source (the fifth and final movie) was somehow even worse than this. Highlander is such a weird series. The first movie is great, the third and fourth movies are better than people...

Back in the 90's, the big game I wanted to play on PC pre-EQ was Legends of Terris, a text-based MUD (probably the best text-based MUD out there TBH) and my Windows 3.1 computer with no sound card couldn't even run that without tons of scrolling lag. That game was awesome, with nine classes and...

Normally I'd cheer on someone keeping their play hours low, but buying 19 games and playing them all for a grand total of one day just comes off like "hi I like to waste money"

SK+Shaman probably, whether you pick Live or a TLP server. It's the evergreen duo.

Everquest. I missed out on a ton of things at the beginning of the century (D2, KOTOR, Morrowind, the entire Game Boy Advance system/era, girls, getting laid, probably getting laid a lot if we're being quite honest) Yep. All because I was glued to that fucking Everquest from 99-01 and then...

Yep, it's bad. For a Zerker, the one thing worth having is something you'll have to compete with 15 SKs for. Beastlord is an even worse situation.

I go to Europe every so often, different country every time, and always make it a point to go see the local cathedral(s). Some of them are insane wonders of architecture. Barcelona particularly stands out. And of course Paris. I got to see the Notre Dame Cathedral for the first time about a week...

Finished Prime 4, next up is some CRPGs which I'm stoked for. Not sure if I'm starting with Planescape or Diablo 2. Keep getting distracted / pulled away by other things like the Mortal Kombat Legacy Kollection.

Finished this game on Sunday, a month after it dropped. Mercifully done. The green crystal hunt wasn't as bad as I expected. I just made sure to farm a little bit every time I crossed the overworld desert, and made note of the locations of the giant boulders that needed Power Bombs. At the end I...

This might be wrong, classic itemization isn't my forte or anything, but looking at Raidloot... For a classic launch, it appears that basically all Berserker and Beastlord usable raid weapons are off of the same 2-3 mobs, all in the worst raid zone (PoSky). Mithril Two-Hander from Guk is...

When do we think Playstation 6 is gonna be out? I'll be first in line for it, just like I was for the PS4 and PS5. IMO PS5 still has a lot of life in it, if they want it to. Graphics probably can't get much better than they are; I'd say PS6 or PS7 will be the gen where visuals get fully tapped...

People who take advantage of the old, whether it's to cast fraudulent vote ballots or collect fraudulent benefits that should be going to the old person instead, really are the scum of the Earth. Hopefully they're going to the special hell reserved for people who abuse children and animals.

What's rustling my jimmies this Monday morning: White liberals who don't know a fucking thing about Venezuela being UP IN ARMS for the release of "president" Maduro. They're so consumed by their all-pervasive hatred for Orange Man, everyone associated with him, and everyone who doesn't hate...

I think they really overdid it with scannable objects in this game. Having every second desk, object, floor panel be scannable was too much. It's the first time I actually felt like a Scan Visor detracted from a game. This guy talks about it a bit: It's a good review in general and touches on...

Agreed, GG @Voyce Keep going, there's more cool stuff to see. The last few areas of ER are the best, IMO. It's an optional postgame super-dungeon, but Miquella's Haligtree is one of the best dungeons I've played in any game. It's a real D&D style crawl. If you dropped that place into any of...

Guy has achieved the impossible; Faceless and RI members agreeing on something!

So that's what I have left? Fire area, Mines area, Chrono Tower? Plus crystal-farming and whatever backtracking I need to do to activate things?

All true. It's such a shame. Considering I played Prime 1 and Prime 2 probably a dozen times each over the years (and Prime 3 probably 3 times), once I finish this game I doubt I'm ever going to touch it again. Unless, of course, they... ...yeah, that. If 2 and 3 get remasters (and they...

All of these Souls games have slow-ish controls to give them that "action RPG" flavor where planning your actions a second or two in advance (usually the foes are a bit slow-moving as well) is rewarded. Well, except Sekiro, which is fast and about twitch rather than planning. I'd say the main...

To bite on this hand-wringing, I could post an epic ranking in the Teek thread, but Teek is past that era. I could post it in the Fangbreaker thread, but Fangbreaker is past that era. This is the closest thing to a catch-all EQ thread. I hear he's working on a TV movie screenplay, "The Rural...

Nothing you said is incorrect. I still haven't finished Prime 4. It just isn't good. The ice area was the only one so far that actually felt like the old Prime games, and only for the trip back out of it (every area doubles up in size by making you backtrack). The green crystal farm might be the...

For me it was dual wielding katanas. Rivers of Blood + Cold Uchigatana is particularly good because you're getting huge Bleed and Frostbite procs out of your L1 double-slashes. That setup can't really get going until like 75% of the way through the game though. An earlier ghetto version would be...
