    I'd either want the Final Fantasy VI victory jingle or the level up jingle from Pokemon, specifically the one that plays when you use rare candies. (Though I don't think they've used the older jingle since Gen 1, you know the jingle that plays when your Pokemon levels up in battle.)

    Ravenfreak got a reaction from killamch89 in Do You Love or Hate Rollercoasters?   
    I'm not the biggest fan of roller coasters anymore. I used to love them as a kid though, even though I've always been afraid of heights and hated when you slowly made your way up a huge incline. I don't mind smaller rides like the Log Flume at Six Flags or the Mine Train. These two rides are smaller, but even the Mine Train has a steep incline.

    Ravenfreak got a reaction from killamch89 in What's Your Favorite Supermarket Chain and Why?   
    I prefer to go to Schnucks, it's a St. Louis area grocery chain. They're cheaper than Walmart and they have more things than Aldi does. Walmart tends to be out of the groceries I want, and I hate the crowds so I would rather go to Schnucks.

    Ravenfreak got a reaction from killamch89 in Are there any animals you hate?   
    I absolutely hate spiders and most insects. Especially spiders though, I've always been afraid of them and I hate when they end up invading my space. I live in Missouri, and we get brown recluse spiders. I've killed a few this year, one bit my grandma once when I was a young kid. She thankfully went to the hospital before it could get infected.

    Ravenfreak got a reaction from killamch89 in GameStop Retro Stores Are Opening   
    I recently watched an Austin Evans video where he went to a few different Gamestop Retro stores as well as a JacobR video and he does the same thing. Both of them didn't have much luck, most of the games they found were disc based games like PS3, Xbox 360 and Wii U. Jacob even interviewed a employee and the employee thinks it might not last long because pretty much all the retro stuff they brought to the salesfloor were older games that have been sitting in back for a while. I was thinking about checking out the only location where I live, but now I'll just stick to going to Vstock or order games online if I want more retro games. (I also get retro games from Retro Game Treasure too.) Also Austin resorted to buying games online, and welp he didn't have a good time. Here's their videos:

    Ravenfreak got a reaction from killamch89 in Handheld vs. Docked: What’s Your Preferred Switch Experience?   
    I prefer to play my Switch docked and on the big tv. My wife prefers to play the Switch in handheld mode, so I let her keep the Switch Lite and I primary use our Switch. I prefer to use a pro controller as well, since I'm not a fan of the Joycons. It's just better to experience the games on a tv rather than in handheld mode IMO.

    I absolutely love the world of ROM hacking and fan games! I'm part of the Sonic hacking community, I'm a judge in the Sonic Hacking Contest and this will be the third year in a row that I get to be a judge. I'm a tech member on Sonic Retro as well, since I have vast knowledge of how the 8-bit Sonic games work. I also like to play Pokemon rom hacks from time to time too, but I've only dabbled in Pokemon ROM hacking a little bit.

    Ravenfreak got a reaction from killamch89 in Will you be paying for the PlayStation 5 Pro?   
    Absolutely not, it's too much money! If my current PS5 kicks the bucket I'll just get one of the slim models. The unit itself is already $700, but if you want a disc drive and a stand you're looking at $810 and that's before taxes. I think Sony is charging too much for the new system, plus I'm not really that much of a stickler for graphics in games so I don't need to upgrade to enjoy the games I have because I look at gameplay, story and music to be the top three things to make a game enjoyable graphics don't matter to me.

    Ravenfreak got a reaction from Knight Plug in 70's vs 80's vs 90's Classic Rock - Which do you prefer?   
    I'm definitely more into classic rock from the 80's. I like some songs from the 70's and 90's as well but the 80's made Def Leppard, Queen, Iron Maiden, Ozzy, and more very popular. I also have to bring up Bon Jovi, who was mentioned a few times in the thread already.

    Ravenfreak got a reaction from killamch89 in Do you play multiple games at once or just one?   
    I try my hardest to just focus on one game at a time, but most of the time I will pick up a game then put it down and pick up another. Honestly this is why I have such a huge backlog of games and I even own games I've never played in my collection. Right now I'm trying to just focus on beating Doom 64 before I pick up another game.

    Ravenfreak got a reaction from Knight Plug in Should I move on from this YouTuber?   
    I would stop supporting this guy. Not only is he degrading people who pay him, he just doesn't sound like someone worth donating money to. Plus if you're not as interested in video games anymore there's no sense to keep watching his content or supporting him. It's okay to have newer hobbies, there was a point where I didn't play games too often and mainly spent my time posting on forums lol.

    Ravenfreak got a reaction from killamch89 in Steam users have spent $19 billion on games they’ve never played.   
    Not going to lie, I'm one of those people. I have a huge backlog of not only games on Steam, but on other platforms and physical games too. They have sales all the time, and people like to take advantage of them.

    Ravenfreak got a reaction from Heatman in Windows 10 to be retired in 2025   
    Windows 10 has been around for a long time now, so it makes sense that Windows will stop supporting it next year. I'm sure my work will continue to use Windows 10 until we possibly can't anymore. I know one of my department leads already has Windows 11 installed on his laptop, and from what I can tell all of the programs we use still work on his laptop. So maybe IT will upgrade soon who knows?

    I hardly go on vacations these days, but when I was a kid I would just bring my gameboy color with me. I remember taking it to Florida when my sister and I went there with my grandmother. I plan on going to Chicago in October and I think I might bring my Switch or GBA SP.

    Ravenfreak got a reaction from killamch89 in How big is your appetite?   
    I have a big appetite. I tend to eat bigger meals for breakfast and lunch at times. Then I'll snack throughout the day, and have another semi big meal for dinner. I will snack here and there but not too much before bed. Though when I'm at work, I only eat during my breaks and lunch I never snack on anything else.

    I don't get it, why equip the console with the disk drive with the larger SSD and leave the all-digital version with the smaller SSD?  Wouldn't common sense dictate it be the other way round?

    I always loved her character in the original Teen Titans Show on Cartoon Network. Although Red X was my favorite character in the show, I liked Raven almost as much. She's such a mysterious character throughout most of the series.

    My username gives it away. Raven is my favorite DC character and my favorite super hero of all time! She's so cool, and has so many awesome abilities. Plus even though her destiny is dark, she's strong enough to not give into her father's thoughts. I know in some comic book runs, she eventually does give into Trigon's control, but normally she's able to keep control of her emotions and keep her father from destroying the world.

    I prefer the evening, especially during the week. I don't like getting up early for work, and I'm stuck at work during the afternoon so evenings are great. Now on the Weekends, I prefer the afternoon. I have more time to just chill and work on the things I need to get done, with still plenty of time to do whatever I need to get done.

    Ravenfreak got a reaction from killamch89 in How do you cope with the loss of a pet?   
    Unfortunately this morning my cat Gizmo passed away. He lived a long life and was 16 years old, he was a Maine coon mix so he lived longer than expected. It's been odd not having him around the house, and my kitten Mochi can tell that something is up. Anyways what do you like to do whenever you lose a pet? I've been just doing what I normally do, listen to music, posting on forums, and I plan on playing video games later this evening. It still feels weird to me though, and I have moments where I start tearing up.

    I'm going to be 34 on the 13th and I still watch animated movies. I know people older than me who also enjoy animated movies as well, so I believe animated movies are for everyone. This also goes for animated shows and anime in general too. Of course there are cartoons that are aimed towards adults that kids shouldn't be watching.

    I just started watching the series with my wife this afternoon, we only watched the first episode so far so I scrolled past the majority of the post. We're both enjoying it so far and will definitely continue watching it! I never played the games before, but I know a little bit of the franchise so I see things here and there that make me go "oh look, there's Nuke Cola!"

    I've learned to not worry about the things I cannot control. Honestly I've been quite a angry person for a while, but the past few days I have felt more alive and less angry than I ever have. I did cut out Facebook of my daily routine a few weeks ago, and honestly I've felt much better now that I don't have to browse that toxic site! Perhaps that's the reason why I've been in a good mood lately lol.

    Nope I don't watch any music channels anymore. I don't have cable or satellite, I do have Hulu but I am not even sure if the music channels are part of the package I have. I used to watch MTV and VH1 when I was growing up. I didn't have digital cable so I couldn't watch MTV 2, or Fuse. I never cared for rap music nor country growing up so I never watched BET or CMT.
