CDG Game Nights / Meet-ups / 4 Player Brotato 07-04-26
Last post by BLUEVOODU - July 04, 2026, 05:35:12 PM@targetrasp @Bomberman PCHeadonfire and myself were able to get in a 4 player Brotato session for a couple hours.
One piece of advice... don't take the bait LOL.
There's a character called the fisherman who has -100% for the price of bait. If you buy the bait, you get an awesome amount of damage (and you can buy as much bait as you technically want). For each bait bought, you get a ton of special enemies at the start of the next round that pretty much bullet hell you. 
Rough but it was fun
This was a great session - hope to do it again soon

Last post by retro junkie - July 04, 2026, 01:56:03 PMThinking out loud: Hmmmm..........we have had Disney no longer producing their own movie releases on DVD and Blu-Ray. They are now dependent on SONY to do this for them. The focus is streaming content. SONY is going to pull over 500 movies from its online store kicking the Playstation owners in the head who "purchased" these movies. Now SONY announces that they are no longer going to produce physical games in the near future. Amazon has already went through something like this with their Kindles, removing content from peoples Kindles after the owners thought they owned the books that they purchased. People have trusted the digital format due to storage issues of the physical, and the convenience. It fits a lot of people's lifestyles.
Where are we headed with the gaming industry? Are we going to end up, at some point, with Roku like gaming consoles where we stream games for a subscription? I can't see a continuation of a system in which gamers would pay a top dollar for a game they don't own only to get it removed after the time is up to play it. Fork over $80 just to hurry up and play before it is removed? That type of business model is doomed. Does anyone remember the Ouya? One unique thing about Steam is they made it work.
Fans of Playstation are being very vocal right now. And SONY is hiding. They have not posted anything since the announcement. It is my understanding that they usually put something up at least two times a day. SONY right now is also being sued for not being up front with the truth about ownership of the movies they are going to pull. I would think that people would be very reluctant to purchase something full price that really is only a fee to have temporary access?
I feel that there are a lot of gamers out there who long for the days when you purchased a game which was totally complete and did not require the internet to play.

To me, Baker is Doctor Who. I do enjoy Matt Smith's take on the character. There are some episodes that I do not like the story, or background story. But I find this collection a lot of fun.
As for the Sonic, I agree with @targetrasp

Last post by BLUEVOODU - July 03, 2026, 08:05:15 PM@targetrasp man... it was amazing. Such good memories. You might still be able to have fun with it lol. Honestly, I would still play if it was available. I really wish it was available.
I never really got into 2003... but 2002 IMO is where it was at:
KEEP ROLLIN ROLLIN ROLLIN ROLLIN...

Last post by BLUEVOODU - July 03, 2026, 07:57:32 PMLOL .. that's pretty good @retro junkie. I also think you are 100% right on your assessment. Considering a few things that happened recently. @SpartanEvolved mentioned that Terminator 2 was recently pulled from PlayStation store and from all users who bought it. I don't think they were refunded to date.
@targetrasp --> I am there too. Think about the cost of storage in a console... and in 2-3 years how large the games will be. HEY... I CAN INSTALL 3 GAMES AT A TIME ON MY PS6. That is insane and stupid.
I probably (not 100% right now) won't get a console without a disc drive. Hopefully Nintendo doesn't cave. However, I did buy a Steam Deck... so when I think about that, I cannot say no 100%. Anything Steam is fully digital. I feel it's a bit more acceptable. However, I also think this is the trend many people are embracing. We will see if that ever gets turned around.
Sounds like Sony is taking it to the chin (at least a bit) based on this news.

Last post by BLUEVOODU - July 03, 2026, 07:31:54 PM@targetrasp --> I need to check this out on amazon... thank you for letting me know. Autorip is pretty cool... still have the physical if they decide to pull the mp3s.
@retro junkie --> I don't think I've seen that Dr. Who. Is it pretty good? I've seen many other. Also --> what are your thoughts on the Sonic movies. Those are great scores

Last post by targetrasp - July 02, 2026, 06:25:33 PMIt seems like Microsoft or Nintendo did something similar with some legacy stuff and the last few days had some killer sales. Maybe Sony will sell a bunch of digital stuff for cheap!
