There's so much I really liked about EGA so it's difficult not to recommend beloved sections... We really need something additional that's different but as good...

@targetrasp
Any other ideas with this?

I am going to move this thread sometime today (into the suggestions board) and start a new fresh topic highlighting a little bit of what has been done and then move forward with new items.   

The process of inviting and advertising the site has begun... working on new members and getting the word out there.  I'm looking into a member contest - to get more people to the site.

Also - looking into ideas to get more posting - same old conundrum as the old board lol    We are doing pretty well 2 months in - just need to work on consistent activity and posts... and getting members to post new stuff if old stuff isn't gaining communication.  This part takes a bit of a push.

So no one else? 

It would be cool to share levels - Maybe once the Nintendo Switch version comes out there will be more activity on Super Mario Maker.

I can understand that.   I Remember on Gears of War 3 Xbox Live... I had a bad round and some dude leaving me a message to never play the game again (in so many words) lol.

Funny enough... those scenarios only have ever happened on Xbox Live.  Never had that issue on PlayStation 3 / 4.  Even outside of family friendly... those experiences ruin it for a lot of gamers.  Especially those that just want to be casual and not

In fact, I created the worst online experiences thread:
Post Your Worst Online Gaming Experiences

What are the worst online gamine experiences you've had online?  Doesn't matter if it is steam, Xbox Live, PlayStation Network, etc.  Post up your stories and what network.

I'll kick this off.  I was playing  Gears of War 3 online on Xbox Live.   I had a pretty crappy round - was doing well that day but dropped off hard for this match.  After the match, I received a "voice message" that I better never play Gears of War 3 again... and if they ran across me "something blah blah."  lol.   I didn't take it seriously... but it's like - WTH?!

We will also do a "best online gaming experience" thread as well... Post it up!

No one else plays this game?  I thought @Mai Valentine played this game too.

@Kinikko have you progressed any further or figured more out on the game?

This game is one of the main reason I bought a Nintendo Switch.   Splatoon 2 is every bit as fun on the Switch as it is on the Nintendo Wii U.

There are a few new mini games, colors are a bit different... new weapons, you can level up more... and it is an awesome portable title.  My 1st time playing Multiplayer match on the switch, I ended fragging 7-8 players and we won.  A little surprising that was.

Who else has Splatoon 2?   post up your thoughts / comments.   If many other members have it, we should try to plan a game night.

Uncharted Collection PS4 - man... I've been wanted to break this out forever. Can't wait to dig in!s

Yeah - when I had the shop, I ran into a stash of them.... the dock was cheap - $20-25.  The System card... I got with another trade.  and the CD add on I found at the time for $85-99.  I thought I was going to be ripped off... It was an Ebay thing.  Several brand new ones.  I always wanted the Duo... ALWAYS... but couldn't ever find one for a good price.   So that's why I did the TG16CD add-on.  The System card 3.0 take care of the rest - US makes it so no converter card needed.

Looks like you have quite the stash of TG16 games!  I like seeing TG16 games.  They were very Unique.

I bought one at the toys r us close out as well!  When they were discontinuing them.  $30.

So this is your favorite console?  I liked certain games tons.  Other's I found lacking in the area of sound.  I'll do a post at some point on it lol. It's been packed away for the last 5 years.

Here's my baby lol... I added the docking station and CD on later:

• US version of the System Card 3.0

I noticed that too... the Japanese Hu-cards were much nicer looking.  Not sure why they did that.

How is After Burner?  I never did manage to score that game.

Good post Retro!

Lol that sucks. That's pretty far along as well.

Just beat Lego Lord of the Rings on the vita.  Now going back to 100% it. 

I read this story awhile ago.  It's a great read. @mastermario should appreciate it. Its a good great SR 71 Blackbird recap.

The Ultimate Ground Speed Check - Tales from the Blackbird - oppositelock.kinja.com

Lol ah those little digs are the best lol :

Somewhere, 13 miles above Arizona, there was a pilot screaming inside his space helmet. Then, I heard it. The click of the mic button from the back seat. That was the very moment that I knew Walter and I had become a crew. Very professionally, and with no emotion, Walter spoke: "Los Angeles Center, Aspen 20, can you give us a ground speed check?" There was no hesitation, and the replay came as if was an everyday request. "Aspen 20, I show you at one thousand eight hundred and forty-two knots, across the ground."

Post it up!

Lol me too... seriously. WTH?!

I have to follow that one up with this one:
ebay.com listing

Lol...

@retro junkie yeah. I like these type of stories.  Used to watch X-Files.  The lady and I will make a run through all seasons here and there.  That takes a bit of time with there bring 9 seasons, 2 movies and 2 extra 'seasons'   X-Files topic coming soon!

@targetrasp I think the crop circle thing stopped after they were 'proven' to be man made ...  do the job mystery has been taken out of them.

The ufo thing is pretty cool...  though I'm pretty sure most of it is testing of some sort.

Has anyone tried this yet?   I think I'm going to give it a shot over the weekend. 

I noticed this auction and have a hard time believing this is a thing:
ebay.com auction

Post all your WTH?!?! Auctions here!  This is the official ChickenDinnerGaming.com WTH auction thread.

Ah... the post your recent purchases thread.  Whether adding to your back log, pre-ordering a new game, or buy something retro... post up your recent purchases!

LOL... the last time went that well, eh?

Another UFO story 
2 airline pilots report seeing UFO while flying over Arizona - MSN.com

It's been awhile since I've seen one of these.  Thought I'd post it up.

Queue X-files theme

Thoughts? Comments? Post it up!

I thought nerdcore was just rap.. YTCracker, McChris, MC Frontalot - and we're going back turn of the century napster era. We need something more metal sounding to describe it. I'm sure it exists I just don't have it.

Metal like what though?  Any examples ?

I am rusty, been a while. Made it to the third level of Streets of Rage 3.

Now that's a game I haven't played in a long time ...  streets of rage. Good stuff

I have the exact same issue lol.  Guitar and those same things you mentioned.

Then I find myself saying 'I don't wanted to adult anymore today's.

Then hopping on a multi-player game sometimes just isn't as fun when people complain.

I'm. Making more head way into my gaming backlog though!   I bright my total trophy % up from 17% (I think) to 22-23% as well. I found defense grid 1 and 2 are a lot of fun.  We need a defense grid topic.

yup, time to watch the Goonies again

exactly ... it's time. 

A few times a year, this movie is watched.

Welp ... I'll be the one to contribute today lol.   Made it further in Lego Lord of the Rings ... nearing the end. 50% complete on the trophies. 

So you found a game now?  Lol. I was big into the modem warfare 4 remake - especially online. Good memories as well.

I think I'll try ww2 when the price comes down a bit.

The power park your car achievement (between 2 cars) makes me want to punch myself in the face.

...

I still have my SFIV Arcade Sticks that I bust out when playing some Pac-Man or other arcade games. Especially SHMUPs.

Those are pretty cool arcade sticks as well.  I miss a good arcade stick - I still have my Neo Geo controllers... but I haven't had a good solid Arcade controller / stick in a pretty long time.  I think I still have my NES Advantage somewhere as well lol...

X-Arcade sticks were pretty popular back when I had my store... though I didn't buy one for myself... and not many really made it through my shop.  Economic down turn really started around 2005-2006.... and people stopped spending money on that stuff... at least from what I saw.

@targetrasp Maybe I need to break out the Atari VCS discussion to it's own topic... Might make a new post and link to this post.

Looks like a new PUBG update has been pushed.   

PUBG Update Out Now On PC, Here Are The Patch Notes - Gamespot.com

The center piece is a new gun skin system - so it sounds like PUBG is headed the direction of CSGO ... at least a little.  2 New loot boxed - Triumph and Raider.

Quoting the article:

To commemorate the one-year anniversary of PUBG's Early Access release, PUBG Corp. is offering players a free anniversary weapon skin.

Free PUBG Weapon Skin Available Now On PC - Gamespot.com

cool... skins can be cool.  I have a few CSGO skins, but I don't personally think I'm going to do much with the PUBG skins. 

Post it up!

Beef Jerky here... Specifically Teriyaki.  Without sodium nitrate

Oh announcements are fine, I just didn't want to get assaulted with topic reply emails.  XD

LOL... I envisioned a bunch of email cruiser missiles / tomahawks flying toward someone in a cement bunker  - Thank you for the clarification
