What games have taught you the most about yourself?
The Blackangel replied to StaceyPowers's topic in Gaming Forum
Hatred. Seeing the fear in people and hearing them scream is so soothing to me, that I would love to actually do it instead of just doing it digitally. But digital is my only option, so I have to settle. -
Tell Me Why
-
Some kids I knew when I was younger had one, and I tried it out. I think I played Mario Tennis. It was a major pain in the ass to get into a position where I could hold the controller and push my face into the headset. I got a headache really quick and quit. It was that trial at the time that made me not want one back then. But if I could find one now that I could afford, I would love to have one.

New Year Gaming Resolutions
The Blackangel replied to Reality vs Adventure's topic in Forum Games & Fun
I have several PS3 games I haven't even played yet. I also have some PS4, Switch, and Xbox One games I haven't gotten to yet. So I have a good backlog of games to get into. Thank the Gods I have a 512g card in my Switch. -
Should cheaters be banned for life?
The Blackangel replied to Kane99's topic in Esports & Competitive Gaming
There's a big difference between a mistake and cheating. It's a big part of why so many marriages end. If the one you're married to is a whore, then you can do a lot better and need to kick the worthless piece of shit out. Unless you're like me, and would punish them by killing their family and friends. Or worse.... -
@StaceyPowers made a post about transferring PS3 files to a PS5. It got me wondering about the same thing but slightly Being that the PS5 is fully reverse compatible with PS4, would it be possible to just move files from the PS4 straight to the PS5? Like through an external hard drive type thing? The same way you would with a thumb drive or microSD card? I'm curious because at some point in a few years I wouldn't mind getting one, but I don't want to lose all the files I have on my PS4.

It has to be only Americans that would enjoy that shit. Looking like a total ass just to piss off the locals. A solid American trait. We're some of the dumbest fuckers on the planet. How we're a world power and haven't been taken over by Canada yet boggles the mind.

KFC's KFConsole Is Real: Secret Ingredient Is Intel Silicon

Imagine all the grease you would have to clean out of it just to get the damn thing to run without catching fire. -
Do you think that more consoles will be coming out?
The Blackangel replied to Kane99's topic in Gaming Forum
There are always challengers to the big 3, but most don't get much press, if any at all. They come in silently, and usually go out silently. We will watch it happen for the rest of the time that gaming even has a market. Sure some may get a bit of popularity, but will have a short lifespan. Think Sega Dreamcast. But that was a rather unique situation, as it was a last ditch effort of a formerly extremely popular company to make a console to stay in the market. There's also the Virtual Boy. It only had about 22 games. Eight of which were exclusive to Japan, and three that were exclusive to North America. So not even the big 3 are immune from bombing. -
Most Complicated Moral System In A Video Game Series
The Blackangel replied to killamch89's topic in Gaming Forum
I think RDR2 is a prime example. Typically people would loathe Arthur and the entire Van der Linde gang for what they do. They rob, kill, and steal as a "profession;" for lack of a better term. Yet they also defend the ones they love, and are willing to give their own lives to do it. That's a rather quick and shallow example, but there are more. Arthur can stop and help random people all over the map, he can give to charity, he can defend animals, and can do a lot of good. But he's still a killer and a thief. As are the rest of his gang, with the exception of Jack. But Jack is only about 4 years old, so that's a given. -

The Official Winter Soltice VGR Celebration Thread
The Blackangel replied to Shagger's topic in General Chat
My xmas dinner was a can of corn. -
I remember the keyboard. It was a limited release, and wasn't received well. It was kind of like the GameBoy camera and GameBoy printer. There were tons of other pointless and useless accessories, most that flopped selling less than 1000 units. Some that were proposed and never released. Such as the GameBoy sewing machine. Nintendo got ridiculous with that shit.

Dbrand making custom PS5 faceplates, dares Sony to sue them
The Blackangel replied to Kane99's topic in Gaming News
I don't know who Dbrand is, but daring someone like Sony to sue them is pretty much suicide. One of the biggest companies in the world, will have some of the most powerful attorneys in the world. There are only a handful of companies that could stand up to them. And those could most likely be counted on one hand. Microsoft Facebook General Motors Hell, that's all I can think of at the moment. You have to have some serious power to put up that kind of fight. So unless Dbrand is backed by someone like those I mentioned, they're fucked. -
Heroes vs. anti-heroes: which do you prefer?
The Blackangel replied to StaceyPowers's topic in Gaming Forum
Arthur in RDR2 is a good example of an anti-hero. He's an outlaw, and not bothered by killing people. He robs and steals anything and everything. But he does have a code of honor that he lives by. So rather than a "save the princess" rhetoric, it's more of a survival and protecting his gang mindset. He does what he has to to keep everyone going and surviving. Regardless of what that is. -
DKC and any variation of Tetris. I can't stand either, but Tetris is the worst abomination in the history of entertainment. It is nuclear shit out of the bowels of Hell that would make the Devil say "Fuck that!" within seconds of even seeing it.

I had a couple others, mostly RDR2, but can't find them at the moment. If I do find them I'll post them. And for those who can't tell, that's my horse's head sticking through a closed door.

Games that have helped you understand human nature
The Blackangel replied to StaceyPowers's topic in Gaming Forum
Not all have a natural instinct to “do right”, as that is entirely interpretive. In war when one soldier kills one of the opposing side they have “done good” by their view, but done wrong by the other side. bin Laden thought he was doing good on 9/11. The rest of the world would mostly disagree. Take me for example. I can watch a person dying and do nothing, without feeling guilt or remorse, as human life means nothing to me. To me, if anything that’s doing good because one more is now dead. That wouldn’t be good to you though would it? As for heroes and villains, I think an anti-hero is more realistic. Take RDR2. You play as an outlaw who is a part of a gang of killers and thieves. Not exactly a hero, but you still side with him when he kills members of an enemy gang. Not just because you don’t want to die in game, but because you believe in his cause. Even though that cause is centered around criminal activity. -
Damn, isn't it WAY too early to even think about a third one? TLOU2 isn't even 6 months old yet. Have a some fucking patience people.

It's not just Twitter. There are trolls all over Reddit that apparently know more about any given OP than the Op does. I have had people educate me that some of the posts I have made are pure bullshit. It's nice to know that there is someone out there that has followed me every second of every day and knows absolutely everything about me to the point that they know exactly how many hairs are on my fucking head. Apparently people on Reddit are now required to run posts by these fuckwads to make sure about whether it's true or not.

The Official Winter Soltice VGR Celebration Thread
The Blackangel replied to Shagger's topic in General Chat
And from those of us that are/will be alone, have fun and get drunk with us. Especially if, like me, the holidays mean absolutely nothing to you. -
I remember it well, but never had one of my own. Some cousins of mine were Sega fans instead of Nintendo, and had every Sega add on and Sega system that came out. Sega Saturn, Sega CD, 32X, Game Gear, Nomad, Dreamcast, all of it. I wasn't all that into it, mainly because I'm a Nintendo girl. But if memory serves me correct, they had a lot of issues with it. I don't remember all of them, but I remember them saying that the system ran really violently and scratched the discs a lot. They said their friends who had the system had the same issues. I think that was why it didn't sell all that well.

KFC's KFConsole Is Real: Secret Ingredient Is Intel Silicon
The Blackangel replied to Kane99's topic in Gaming News
>bangs head many times< For the love of the Gods, will someone please tell me this is just a bullshit joke, and that all we saw was an advertisement for a cooking utensil REFERRED TO as a "console" for some misbegotten reason? Maybe it's one of those air fryers or something? "We're having chicken tonight, Where's that chicken console at?" -
I took about 6-7 months to work on it when I was in my 20's and came up with a decent drawing of Squall's Gunblade. Typically I can't even draw a stick figure, so it took a hell of a lot of work. Literally several hours daily for those months and it still wasn't very good. The stick figure was better.

Games you love despite truly awful bugs
The Blackangel replied to StaceyPowers's topic in Gaming Forum
One that I'm sure most don't remember is a bug in Zelda Ocarina Of Time. It happens when you try to jump from one platform to another. Link will make it but will get stuck at the corner, and the game will start jerking him up and down on the corner really fast and get stuck doing that. I'm not even touching the controller and it stays there doing that to the point that your only option is to reset the game and lose all your progress since the last time you saved. It's infuriating. And it happens way more often than people would think. It's the main reason why I have gotten into the habit of saving every 3 minutes. And do I even need to mention any specific Atari games? Buggy as hell, both due to age and the tech of the time, but completely worth it.
