Arthur's death. I bawl like a baby when I get to that point. Which is why I never play that far into the game anymore.

For me it's TLOU1 and TLOU2. Everyone here who has played it constantly raves about how awesome the game is. But a monster in it triggers a potentially lethal phobia for me. That's not an exaggeration. It's bone hard medical fact. I don't know what the monster is called, but I saw an image of it several years ago and @Rain Dew had to come home from work to (for lack of a better term) "talk me down" so to speak.

It’s hard to say. It could unite the world, or it could drive us further apart. It all depends on the intentions of the new creatures. If they want to be our ally, then it could lead us into a golden age. However if they’re hostile, it could unite us against them. Think the movie Independence Day. Then flip it to envision the opposite and they’re friendly.

If you’re into senseless violence and sheer brutality, you should try Hatred. It’s an extremely violent game, but I love it. It helps when I’m in a mood when I just want to kill for no apparent reason. I get that opportunity with Hatred. Here’s the intro for the game.

Riven was great game in the Windows 95 era. But as for now, my vote goes to Hatred. It’s a game that I not only relate to, but challenges me. There are things you have to figure out if you want to survive and maintain enough ammo to keep killing people.

Does anyone else still play games from the first 3 PlayStation consoles? As I have said before, I missed the entire PS2 era, which means I never got into any games from it, hence I don’t actually play any PS2 games. But I keep my PS3 hooked up. I play Castlevania SOTN on it all the time. I also play God Of War games and other games like Dante's Inferno as well.
So I’m curious if anyone else still plays these 3 systems.

It's worse than sickening. I can't stand it. I have refused to date anyone who smoked since I was young. My parents were heavy chain smokers, and I had to breathe that shit in through my entire childhood. My mother was such a heavy smoker that her teeth were gray. My father's fingers were permanently stained by the tobacco. The mere thought of it makes me not only sick, but enraged as well.

In my opinion, their first real leap was the N64. The 360° viewing, and 64 bit graphics were more than mind blowing in 1996. Their next big one was the Wii. Motion control was the fevered dream of a madman before that. And now, we have a hybrid system, in the Switch
They are showing no signs of slowing down any time in the future. But I still think they shot themselves in the foot, because what's left for them to do? They’ve already done EVERYTHING so their system creativity has to have hit a wall by now.
Right?

Remastering classic Nintendo games presents challenges like updating graphics while maintaining original charm. Developers must balance nostalgia and innovation, ensuring gameplay feels authentic. Addressing technical limitations and modern expectations requires careful design choices to preserve the essence of beloved titles while enhancing the experience.
You just said the exact same thing that @killamch89 said. You used the same words and almost quoted him directly. Please think your posts more thoroughly in the future.
Now, to respond to the post, a lot of us classic gamers will be disgusted by remasters of our old and beloved games. Nostalgia is a very big thing for us, but sometimes a remaster is the only way kids today can experience the games we grew up playing. But going for AAA style graphics to play SMB1 is a step too far. Just look at Super Mario All Stars. They updated the graphics, and classic gamers hated it, myself included. It just wasn’t the same game. Link’s Awakening is a perfect example. Sure it’s the same game (more or less) but at the same time it’s not.

They're spot on with this one.
-
They should definitely retaliate. They ARE the ones on top. We're at the bottom. Personally, I would rather have Saddam Hussein ruling us. At least then we would have a few freedoms.

Adolf has hated this country and its people his entire life. He saw the White House as a means to alienate us, completely destroy our economy, and let bigotry run rampant. We're no longer a world power or even a nation. We're a third world country and ruled by a dictator with an iron fist. The constitution no longer matters. It's nothing but old paper. He probably plans on taking it out of the Smithsonian and literally wiping his fat diseased ass with it.
Nazism and Fascism is what our political system is now.

For this, I would say Diablo II. Sure the first Diablo game was amazing. But there are more characters to interact with in Diablo II, and it just immerses you in multiple ways.
-
I hope to hell it's died. Those things made me sick. Kids would get one and then think they were retro gamers. The things may have been convenient, but it's not actual games from classic systems. There was what? Twenty games installed? Do they even have a clue about any games that weren't installed in it?
I hope the crazy is dead and buried.

Johnny Depp
His versatility is unmatched by actors these days. He has done comedy movies (Pirates Of The Caribbean) and dramatic movies (The Libertine) like a master. He is also the only actor I’m aware of who has done everything. Comedy, drama, horror, thriller, musical, romance, TV shows, western, spoofs, and everything in between. Even Robin Williams didn’t have that kind of resume. He also doesn't go for a role just because it’s a blockbuster. If he doesn’t feel it, he doesn’t take on the role.

I use them all the time. I have at least a dozen, all for different things. They’re more than handy. I love using them because they have great storage capacity and are easy to tell apart, unlike microSD cards. You can also print out labels with a label maker, which you can’t do with a microSD card.

Sometimes it’s a good thing, but it can also be a real bitch. In my case for example, BOTW is both confusing and hard. I don’t know where the hell I’m supposed to go or what I’m supposed to be doing. I left Kakariko Village but even with the map, I don’t have a goddamn clue. Don’t get me wrong, the game is fun, but it’s starting to seem like a game that I would need a guide to. @Rain Dew isn’t a fan, and I’m not sure if it’s for me either.
Don’t get me wrong, I love a challenge. But sometimes the game in question just goes over my head. It’s no fault of the game, it’s on me. But it’s frustrating as hell to not have a clue what I’m already doing and what I’m supposed to be doing.
On the other hand, Mario Odyssey is pretty simple to me, and I do enjoy it, despite the fact that I don’t play it very often.

I started this petition, and I’m posting it everywhere I can think of. I’m hoping it gets shared all over the world.

I like the early 80’s style. If you’ve ever seen Clash Of The Titans (1981) you’ll know exactly what I’m referring to. Here’s a clip of Pegasus flying in.

As long as it packs heat into the meal, I’m good. Jalapeño mac & cheese is a favorite of mine. Jalapeño biscuits are really good too. Jalapeños are one of my absolute favorite peppers. I eat them like candy.

Fuck urban. You might see a tree or two, but it has nothing to do in relation to the real thing. You’ll see and hear so much in the wild. Birds chirping, squirrels chittering, maybe see a deer or something. You can’t get that in an urban park. The only reason to do the urban shit is if you’re not able to do the real thing for whatever reason.

To put it simply,
IF YOU AIN’T SWEATING, YOU AIN’T EATING.

I’ve never been into this style of game, but with all the discussions about GTA that I’ve seen here, my curiosity is peaked.

This is the kind of fucking bullshit that has me praying to anything and everything that Canada grants me asylum.

I have to concur with @killamch89 on AOE2. It's the best one in the entire series. But another one for me is Diablo II. Again, best one in the franchise.
