  1. I know how to repair controllers with ease. Depending on the console, I can repair them as well. NES and SNES are easy as hell to repair. The cartridges are easy to repair as well. If a solder point has come loose, that's a pain in the ass, but an easy fix for a steady hand. Some game carts, I can't fix because I don't have the tools to open them. Some are put together with rivets instead of any kind of removable screw. But anything else is easy.
  2. I highly doubt that there ever will be a Bully 2. The first one didn't garner any kind of real profit for Rockstar. It's sales were abysmal, and it wasn't particularly popular. It's been 16 years since the first one, and no talk has ever been made since then. It saw a brief revival on the Xbox One, but still didn't sell well. So all that in consideration, I don't see a sequel ever being made.
  3. An atheist wouldn't really fall under either, as it's more a denial of religion. Atheists believe there is no god, so there is no religion there. They're kinda off in their own group. They're alongside Agnostics. They don't deny the possibility, but at the same time say there is no proof. Satanism is a bit like Atheism, but instead is an actual a religion with practices, holidays, and traditions. I know this because I am Satanic.
  4. If I had seen it in time, I would have said something as well. But after reading the response @Shagger gave, there was nothing left for me to add. He summed it all up perfectly.
  5. I personally gave up on blizzard with WoW. It was a horrendous game in my opinion, and was showing me just how far they were sliding down the shit pile. The last game they put out that was even worth consideration of buying was Diablo II. While they obviously have other titles, Activision seems to almost focus on CoD titles exclusively. I understand that it's a wildly successful franchise, but their attempts to branch out with Tony Hawk and Skylanders is sub par at best. And for those of us who can't play war/military games, they don't have much of anything to offer. If Microsoft thinks they can make a dollar and/or save Activision/Blizzard then I say go for it. It may come back to bite them in the ass, but either way I hope they learn from it. And with the monopoly discussion, I do have to agree. It seems they're trying to get as close to a monopoly as they legally can. They'll never get their hands on longtime exclusives like Mario and Zelda. Nintendo would burn them to the ground before they would let anyone else have them. They already made that mistake with disastrous results. PlayStation isn't going to release GoW without one hell of a fight either. My biggest worry here, is that at some point they will acquire Take-Two, and thus Rockstar. My thoughts on Rockstar as well known here, and I don't want to see one of my favorite franchise's end up as an Xbox exclusive.
  6. It's a decent art style, but fails to grasp the old way of drawing cartoons. There's too much digital editing in it for it to look truly authentic. That said, it does look like a good show. I'll definitely be tuning in to watch it.
  7. I'm so glad my channels are so obscure. After seeing this, I'm also deciding that I'll never show my face in a video. It's going to be strictly an audio reviewing channel. And it may be set to private so that only approved people can see the videos, with the exception of videos that don't feature my voice at all in any way. Oh! By the way, does anyone want to buy 3 seconds worth of nothing? I'll rent you a pretty picture of absolutely nothing to mark your place in line.
  8. I've tried 12 step programs, and absolutely hate them. If it works for you, then more power to you. But it's something I personally don't have the ability to tolerate.
  9. Organized religion typically refers to religions like Judaism, Islam, and Xtianity. Religions that are rigid and exclusive to all others. "Unorganized" religion isn't an actual term. But for the sake of argument, we'll say it is. It would refer to religions that aren't major powerhouses and are more widely spread without any hierarchy or "headquarters" (think Vatican for Catholicism) of any kind. Buddhism is a good example of an "unorganized" religion. Satanism is another one. We're all over, but we don't advertise ourselves. Organized religion does advertise itself. Xtianity does anyway. But I found a way to keep the converters away.
  10. That's like praying away AIDS. It's pure bullshit.
  11. That image has made the rounds in Satanic circles for years. Here's a few other popular ones.
  12. I can't answer that, as I don't know them. But the look on his mothers face tells me that he hears it at home, but is not supposed to say even "heck" or "dang", let alone "shit".
  13. If I could, I would stand in the shower. I'm not taking offense, as this is a thread for unpopular opinions. But the ability to stand there and let the hot water run down my body would be great.
  14. True, but the fact that it was a preschool age kid saying it with no fear of consequences is what made it funny, regardless of which word he used.
  15. I'm a former addict, and adding the time I was using and the time it took to get clean, there's 4 years of my life that I only get bits and pieces of on a rare occasion. Other than that, it's a complete blank. Fighting the urge to use again, is a never ending uphill battle at a near vertical incline. We're like ants pushing boulders the size of the moon up hills the size of the solar system. I could go out right now and pick up a gram or two. I know where to get it, and who the pharmacists are. There's several in my former neighborhood. MS-13 moved a lot of it in when I was living over there. When my next door neighbor had a bullet fly through her wall one night, that was when I decided it was time to move.
  16. These days, it's nothing to hear a 5 year old saying things like that. I crack up when I see it, but it's not uncommon. The other day at Walmart, I was looking at some of the movies, and this woman and her 4-5 year old son came into the aisle. I wasn't paying them any attention, but I heard her tell her son that she couldn't find some kids movie or cartoon series. And I swear to you the little kid just said "Ah, shit." and they walked off. I laughed for the first time in years.
  17. Recent attempts at new Contra games have proven that all too true. Capcom's heyday is long gone. They were killing it up through the N64/PS1 era. But after that, they started suffering and seriously screwing up virtually everything they touched. They ended up being like a rebirth of LJN. Don't get me wrong on that, there's a lot of LJN games that I actually enjoy the hell out of. It's just an analogy that I know everyone will understand. But after that era, they (at least from what I have seen) more or less faded away into obscurity. I haven't seen much out of Konami either, especially since the death of Castlevania. The last Castlevania game I saw released was Lords Of Shadows II on PS3. Has there been another one released since then? If so, then it seems it garnered very little publicity. If any at all. The TV show doesn't count here. This is about games. It's just seeming to me that some of the best companies, (that early in their run had some of the best games) are dying off. Capcom and Konami are just the first two that come to mind for me.
  18. Lets hope its not a rehash of the Power Glove on NES.
  19. There's only one thing about that RDR2 trailer that confuses me. It's at the end. "Product not yet rated." Who the hell didn't see this game getting an M rating? Seriously? There wasn't any sexual content that was graphic enough way to warrant an AO rating, and it's got way too much to only get a T rating. What dumbass was on the fence about it?
  20. I will most likely forget tomorrow, so I want to wish a happy birthday to a man whom I have admired for as long as I can remember. Happy birthday to Edgar Allen Poe. Born January 19, 1809 Died October 7, 1849 May he find the peace in death that eluded him in life. And the raven, never flitting Still is sitting, STILL is sitting, on the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door And his eyes have all the seeming of a daemon that is dreaming And the lamplight o’er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor shall be lifted -Nevermore
  21. These are my own personal 14 tenets. Take from them what you will. 1.) Treat others the way they treat you. 2.) Mind your own business. 3.) Take nothing at face value. 4.) Stupidity is unacceptable. 5.) Entitlement is inexcusable. 6.) Defend yourself viciously and without mercy. 7.) If you allow yourself to be taken advantage of you deserve the repercussions. Some situations excluded. 8.) Respect is never to be granted, but only ever earned. 9.) Animal abuse carries with it a torturous sentence of death. 10.) Robbery/theft carries a sentence of lifetime imprisonment in solitary. 11.) Sex offenders, pedophiles, and all child assault crimes forfeit all human rights including but not limited to food and water. These criminals are the ones used for medical research instead of animals. 12.) Individuality is to be encouraged and celebrated. 13.) Those of the LGBTQ+ community are to be welcomed with open arms. 14.) Women have the right to choose.
  22. Your bonding with the horse determines how well they will listen and how quickly they will come when called. If your bonding with the horse is low, you may as well be riding a damn bicycle. If your bonding is high, then you're on a golden hog.
  23. It's kind of a mix of both. You can move the red circle in the middle around with your thumb like an analog stick, or you can just press the black ring on the outside like a typical D-Pad. The red part will act like your thumb when you move it to whatever part of the D-Pad you're needing. So it's a lot easier on the fingers. Especially if you're playing a game with any parts that you have to hit a button rapidly. The turbo buttons are a godsend.
  24. I wasn't into Undead Nightmare. It just bored me and ruined the game in my eyes. But then I'm often a bit of a prude when it comes to games. Play it original, or don't play it at all. If I'm reading this right, are you saying you didn't like the graphics of RDR2? What's your gripe? Thee graphics were so realistic, that the first time I saw @Rain Dew playing it, I actually asked her what movie she was watching.
