  1. Zelda: Twilight Princess had great art. It was an absolutely beautiful game, artistically speaking. Killer Instinct on SNES had graphics ahead of its time. DKC did too. The original Mega Man games on NES were also extremely well done. Then there's Conker's Bad Fur Day. That one had amazing design. The current South Park games look exactly like the show. That's almost impossible to do with TV show based games. Sonic The Hedgehog always had great art as well. It was amazing. Leaps and bounds above most SNES games. Say what you want about this next one, but I think Castlevania SOTN was beautifully done as well. Dantes Inferno and the God Of War games are also graphically beautiful.

    There are so many games that were drawn beautifully, that it's hard to list all personal favorites.

  2. Depending on what the item is often determines whether or not I will go for it. With controllers, I always buy from the parent company. For example, my PS4 controllers have to come from Sony. I won't buy knockoff controllers. I've had knockoffs for other systems before, and they never worked right. So not I just spend the extra money and go with the name brand in relation to the system. With headsets, I just go with something decent that works well. If it's a gift, that's fine with me. For example I have a special Zelda edition headset that @Rain Dew bought me a few years ago. It's a great headset. But I've also had knockoffs that served their purpose for a while.

    So for me, it all depends on what it is.

  3. Diet Pepsi or black coffee. More often than not it's the Diet Pepsi though. I have a mini-fridge here in my office/den/computer room or whatever the hell you want to call it. It is always stocked with soda, and my coffee pot is right beside it. So whether I want something hot or cold, I have it right there waiting for me.

  4. This doesn't have to be anything tangible. It doesn't have to be a game, or online subscription to Game Pass or anything. It just has to be related to gaming.

    For me, it came from @Rain Dew a couple days ago. She got me one of the greatest gifts I have ever received in my life. She was on Cameo, and she bought me a shout out from Roger Clark, aka Arthur Morgan. I got a video message from Arthur Morgan. I was in a stunned silence for over two hours. I eventually ended up throwing up. The shock was almost more than I could believe. I actually told her the next morning that I had dreamed it. She told me it was real and we watched the video again. Since then I have watched it over and over. I still can't believe it that I got a message from Arthur Morgan himself. He talked to me in his real voice and as Arthur. He gave me some tips on voice acting, which is something I'm really wanting to get into. It's still mind blowing.

  5. I spent almost $200 on RDR2 Ultimate Edition. I wanted the code that unlocks the extra quests and free items/horses and all the other stuff. The Special Edition would have done fine, but I couldn't find that one. I was all over the internet trying to find it, and finally found it on eBay. The Ultimate Edition does all that but also does it for the online version of RDR2 as well. There was only one that had the code unused, so I bought it. Then later I saw on Rockstar the bundle that I could customize that was less than that one copy of the game. So adding them both together, I probably spent around $380 or so to buy the game.

    Here's a comparison between the Ultimate and regular editions of the game from the Rockstar webpage.

  6. I have 2 Master Swords, novelty coins, clothing, posters, and other random crap. I don't have a whole lot. Most of it is just random junk that I don't even know where the hell it is. The big things are the swords. One is a hell of a lot higher quality than the other, but they're both good quality replicas.

  7. Motion capture is a major thing to produce games these days. Sure every company does it different, but they all still do it. The actors from RDR2 have joked saying they looked like ninjas with ping pong balls all over their bodies, including the horses. YouTube interviews is how I know that. So with that in mind, I would see that coming in the future to make VR fully immersive, until that little chip that you stick to the side of your head that transports you to a matrix like world comes out.

  8. I hope to hell not. Zuckerberg has his grubby little paws into almost everything else, so there's no sense in Facebook making a console. We see consoles come and go, but no one can really compete with the big 3. So in my view, it would just be a waste of time on their part, because I only see it being a major flop and the company losing millions if not billions. Not that Zuckerberg would really notice if it was just millions.

    Yeah I guess Cuphead would fit into this, because who would have thought a game about a cup would make it big. But yeah, it does seem to be quite meme heavy in some regards. I've yet to play it myself, I hear it's pretty tough. 

    It’s extremely difficult. But in my opinion, that’s one of its more endearing traits. The art style, the difficulty, and the sheer goofiness just makes it a great game. It’s up there with Conker’s Bad Fur Day if you ask me. But as for Cuphead, I’ve been playing it for a good while now, and still haven’t gotten past the first stage. So either I suck at gaming, or this one is more difficult than I anticipated.

  10. Cuphead would easily fit the category. It's one of the looniest games I have ever played. But I like it because it's the exact same art style as the cartoons I grew up watching. I miss those cartoons. Not even Boomerang has them.

    That's can't be right. Every android I've owned has allowed any audio track on stored your device to be selected as a ringtone any image stored to be used as a screen saver or wallpaper provided the format was compatible, and because it's android, almost all of them are. I'm not trying to criticize nor call into question your competence, but is it possible that your android phone could do it, but you being used to iPhones and thier indigenous UI, you couldn't figure out how?

    That's a possibility, as much as I don't want to admit it. Another could be that I just got a bad phone. But either way, the one that I had was purely a piece of shit.

  12. It all depends on the game. For example 1943 on NES is a WW2 game. For it, it needs to be historically accurate, or the game just doesn't work. Then there's games like RDR2, that take place in 1899. It is somewhat accurate for the time, but not entirely. And that works just fine for it.

    Most games need a little bit of accuracy for the time they're related to. Very few need to be historically accurate, as very few are based around a historical event.

  13. Yes they do feature online capabilities. First you have to have someone linked as a friend on both your Switch's. Second you both have to subscribe to Switch Online. Then you just link with your friend, and you both load up the game. That's how it worked for me when I subscribed. But I quickly unsubscribed since it was just an emulator, and nostalgia is 95% or what matters to me.
