Take a page from the Clone Wars or Star Wars Rebels cartoons. Thrawn and Asokah are awesome, use them.

@Grindspine .... weird... we've had a few of those pop up lately.  I'm thinking some of the security is being over zealous... I already have a host ticket open for another one I was encountering.  Let me know if you can get in from this email.  If it's cool, I'd like to test with  you a little on that to I can report it to the host - might be a config issue. 



buh... happy afterbirth.

I saw another "403 Forbidden" today.  My birthday is a forbidden topic!

StarCraft the movie!  Oh wait, Starship Troopers did that in the Zerg context.  Oh, StarCraft the movie on the Protoss side!  Wait, was that Independence Day?

I have an NES Classic and SNES Classic, mostly because I had rented many games back around 1990, but not bought some of them that I really enjoyed.

That being said, the nostalgia wears off quickly, much like with my barely played Sonic Mega Collection PS2 title.  On top of the nostalgia being quite temporary, the lack of production made both very hard to get.

At this point, since the original Xbox is not supported, I have considered if it would be worth modifying.

Ah, I thought you were talking about the email that I got telling me that I was mentioned in a topic.  When I clicked the topic, I got a 403 forbidden message.  I was like, "What?  I am forbidden from my birthday?"

A co worker of mine once said, for a belated birthday greeting, "Happy afterbirth!"

On that lovely note, thank you for the wishes!

I still play sc2 here and there.  The game mode depends on my mood.

I have yet to beat Mega Man X2 or X3.  Mega Man 7 was rough.  I beat that once, then took it out of my SNES and never played it again.  I hate that game  >:D

It is a fun romp, but can be finished within a few evenings of playing.

Great movie.  It is impossible to talk about the ending without invoking spoilers and the other Marvel Cinematic Universe movies though.

I have played one night with Spartan and MasterMario, but need to revisit the game.

Don't die?  ;D

I played a bit with my nephew joining a game.  I will have to invest a bit more time to it.

The necromancer expansion was a welcome nostalgic foray into Diablo II days.  I have not had much time to play it lately though.

I would be willing to play a bit more.

I played quite a few games that I had not touched.  Some of those games gave me the impression of, "Oh, yeah, I should play through more of this when I get a chance."  Several left me with the impression of, "No wonder I had not bothered to install this before."

I have many games that I picked up in those Steam sale packages where I bought a package to get one or two games cheap, but ended up with several games being added to my library.

Bloodstained Ritual has been in the works for so long.  I really hope that it does not flop.  It has been far too long since a solid Konami Castlevania (Metroidvania) game has made an appearance on a full console rather than a handheld system.

It looks like Valve realizes how many Steam users have massive backlogs.  This holiday weekend is all about spring cleaning!

Wow...

This is the worst Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse imitation that I have seen.  It would have had potential in 1989 if it were by Konami...  Maybe it appeals to some retro fans.  Thoughts?

My nephew has been bugging me to play Fortnite.

@mastermario want to play some tonight around 8 eastern?
#444
It is on my list.  Nintendo games rarely seem to ever go on sale.
#445
I replayed Zelda III: A Link to the Past, but have not spent much time with it since beating that game.
#446
I got a 3dsxl mostly to play DS games on a larger screen (Castlevania Portrait of Ruin, Dawn of Sorrow, and Order of Ecclesia).  Now that I have it, I am seriously considering Mario Kart 7 and Metroid: Samus Returns.

Halo: Master Chief Collection (Halo 2 HD)
Halo 5: Guardians

Does Xbox one have any other killer apps or exclusive titles?  If so, I have not heard of them.

Trying to watch LIS now... but, I have to work in the morning, so I have to stop in the middle of episode 3.

Game Boy Advance, PS2, and Xbox are becoming retro.  PS3 and 360 are still current.

To be retro, support has to be totally gone for a system.

Digital is better for quick access with little physical storage space and no disc scratches to worry about.

Physical is better if I want to sell a game.
