Welcome back Mai!  Glad to have you. 

If you'd rather use a new name, just let me know and I'll change it up for you. 

I bought this game awhile back ... It peaked my interest.  I really haven't broke it out since then... like the majority of my Steam collection.  It appears many other gamers have this syndrome. lol...  And it's time to break this game out.

Do you play Elite Dangerous?   If so... do you like it and what draws you to the game?    Also, do you play it VR?

Post it up!

lol... he plays with his friends?  that's pretty crazy.

Campaign - you really don't need all 4 players.   They AI is fine to play with... and people don't have to be the best.  Final Battles are harder that way... but it would be still fun to play.

Does anyone else play?

This will change as time goes on... but as of today... what do you consider the top 5 games worth the FULL VALUE / Full asking price?  Any why.

Tons of games... tough choices...Post it up!

I see... yeah... they did that with Amazon Video too.   I wasn't happy about it.  They had tons of Free awesome old Nickelodeon programs - AHH Real Monsters, Are you Afraid of the Dark, Doug, Hey Arnold - about 2-3 years ago... they stopped offering them.  The kids and I really liked watching them.


Speaking of Space Quest, it's back lol:
Space Quest on Steam
... I will create a topic on this at some point.

Another Hamburger.... but it was left overs... and a Sapporo -

It went pretty good... Mastermario and I played a few rounds until Spartan Evolved finally joined up.

ok - looks like gamespot doesn't work

Remember this topic:  Bluevoodu's Wish for the Switch - Phantasy Star Online?

Well Guess what??
Nintendo Direct: Phantasy Star Online 2 Switch Announced For Japan, Includes Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Items - Gamespot

MasterMario - Time to warm up the switch.  We need a US launch.

According to NintendoLife, it's free to play with micro transactions.  As much as I had micro transactions.... I'm pumped.
Nintendo Switch Is Getting A New Phantasy Star Online Game - Nintendolife.

Who else is pumped?  Thoughts?  Post it up!

Yes... we need another Super Smash Brothers game.  And it's coming to the Nintendo Switch:
Nintendo Direct: Super Smash Bros. Switch Coming 2018 - GameSpot

More can be seen on the Nintendo Direct Website: Nintendo Direct

• It doesn't appear we can embed the video due to no video link... so check out the video above.

I am pumped for this game.  It would be cool if we could get CDG matches going with Smash Brothers.  The only thing I hope for in this game... is that it has the motion of the Gamecube Super Smash Brother Melee.  Super Smash Brothers Brawl on the Wii was a bit slower paced and not as fun - in my opinion.   I think the Wii U Super Smash Brothers picked up the pace a bit, but I don't have a ton of experience with that one.

So. Fresh. It. Hurts.

Thoughts? Comments?  Post it up!

If there is time... I hope to see it this weekend. Been hampered with busy weekends...

Did anyone else make it to the movie?

OK - so I started playing this game.  The motion back and forth  - IE the flying of the aircraft - is still a bit slower than I like.  It takes a bit too long to traverse the screen left to right.   

With that said, the soundtrack is pretty good... I dig it quite a bit.  The copy purchased came with the soundtrack.  There is another version out there without the soundtrack.

Graphics are great.  The power up "cycle" is everything you'd expect from a Raiden game.

I'll write more as I continue to progress through the game.

Man... I love Darius Twin.  Someone traded a copy into my shop a long time ago.  I ended up buying it for myself.  It was one of those "I need this Shmup" games.

Maybe I will break it out over the weekend.  As you mentioned, the music in the game is well done - haunting and enchanting. 

Your CRT is still working?  Unfortunately... none of my old old tvs work and they were tossed about 2 years ago.

Interesting... so no emulation.  A legit chip based system ... but it looks that great on newer HD tvs?

1080p with zero lag the website states. This is actually a pretty cool concept.


LOL... and great sound with the Zombies Ate My Neighbor Demo... I love this game.

yeah - I Won't lie... it's hard to go back to PS1 style games for me at times.  I'll still do it - but it's a bit harder for me.  I consider myself a retro gamer as well.  BUT to be fair, I never thought it looked good when it was new either.   The N64 looked ok... but man... there some games where the fog ruined it.  Other games such as Winback... I thought it added a bit of cool atmosphere.

It's crazy to say the PS3 is / looks "too outdated."  It still looks good.

no baby-punching or seal-clubbing?

I quit.

Wait - puppy punching as well.

OK... knocked out a couple more.

Discord, Google+ and Switch Friend Codes

We will continue to facilitate the Discord and Battle.net Channels for gaming meetings.

I had a lot of trouble with Discord at 1st... For whatever reason, it wasn't reacting right when trying to join channels and start chat.

yeah... I remember that too.

I was pretty pumped for the Nintendo DS to come out.  Many were skeptical that the dual screens was a gimmick.  It turned out to be very handy.  So many good games too.

We should add in there somewhere... I think we beat ODST on  the Thanksgiving LAN night. lol

I believe you are correct. That was a good run. Solid game, too.

That was a great run... pretty fun

alright... we will get it going.

Anyone else?

Yeah. I stopped awhile ago. It's time to get t going again if we all can find a time that works out.... been wanting to get this going.  Craving some diablo 3

I know.   I ate so much of it too lol.

Ribs tonight ... woooottt

OK - I changed them to open in a new window.


Do you like the PSN and XBOX ID's being in the profile?   Or would you like to see what it looks like on the posting page?  I really wish they had links to profiles for those services.  I guess I could still link to those services but then the person who clicks has to sign in.  HM... maybe I'll do that lol ...

I will continue to push on with the rest

ok - Xbox live, PSN, and Facebook are all added.  FB will be next to Steam icon due to direct link.   Xbox and PSN are both in the user's profile.  I Could put the text on the post page as well below icons, but didn't do that yet as I don't want to clutter that up.
* if you want to see it, please let me know and I'll enable as a test... then we can decide.

The other thing I think I want to do - make it so that all of these profile links open in a new page... so you don't lose your spot in the forum.  This would be with Steam, FB...etc.... basically the direct link profile fields with images.  Thought?

I had a whopper (and my normal vegetables) for lunch... co-worker lost a bet lol.   I wasn't going to make him pay up but he was cool to buy my Whopper on Whopper Wednesday.


Then tonight.... I had a 5 guys burger.   So tasty... it's so tasty... but now I feel a bit like death.

Surprisingly,  the notify works on mobile well too.   At least iPhone. I just tested it out.

The Rights as in the rights for steam to have a "Sierra" made game or an EA made game in the steam store?

So steam has to pull it because the developer says to?


I know a couple of the ones I mentioned were pulled because too many had issues with it. However, I never encountered those same issues. 

Good!   

They queue for 72 hours. At least how I have it set right now.  So after 3 days, notification won't be received.

Yes. Go to the topic - we should get frodus and a couple others. I'll see about getting on once I'm home
