The Blackangel

@Crazycrab you're not the only one triggered by that term. It makes my blood boil too. You have nothing to apologize for. But that term has almost singlehandedly driven me away from this forum.

It looks like a mix of Contra, Metroid, and Battletoads. I'm getting it. Thanks for the post @skyfire!!!!

But that's precisely my point. The console IS meant to do only one thing. As such, they are able to concentrate more on the game itself, because that's all the console is crafted to do. Whereas a PC is set up to do hundreds of other things on top of gaming.

I'm 38 and with a handful of exceptions, I suck. I can count the ones that I really rock on one hand. I used to be good at a lot, but since I missed more than 10 years of gaming, I went rusty as hell, and now suck at almost all of them. Zelda games are virtually the only ones I'm any good at anymore. But when you're so old that you remember when dirt was the hottest toy on the shelves, it kinda comes with the territory.

I remember it. I thought it was stupid.

In every level, Goblin Sword has 2 treasure chests, and 3 crystals for you to find to fully clear the level. The thing with that is that there are tons of false walls in every level that keep them hidden as well as give you access to otherwise inaccessible areas in the level. It can be frustrating as hell, and a major puzzle to figure out how to get them all. But it's totally worth it. The game is a blast.

My girl has been trying to beat this bastard for a while now and just can’t kill it. We know that we have to take out its eyes first. Then go for the mouth, but that’s easier said than done. Does anyone have any tips or strategies for killing the damn thing? Here’s our inventory: 2 freeze bolts 4 flash bolts 6 harpoons 5 explosive bolts 6 shock bolts 2 grenades Revolver Shotgun Sniper Rifle HELP!!!!

I found this at walmart.com and thought it was rather interesting. https://www.walmart.com/ip/SanDisk-256GB-MicroSDXC-UHS-I-Card-for-Nintendo-Switch-SDSQXAO-256G-GNCZN/482759929

I would say the worst team in the NHL would be the Blues. Until 2019 they had never taken the cup. In fact they had never even made it though the playoffs to the finals.

I would go for a couple of the old ones, but for just a couple bucks, I can get the entire NES and SNES catalogue, so I doubt I'm going to bother with it. I have a 128g card in my Switch. Don't judge me, it was all they had or I would have gotten at least a 256. Preferably a 512 or bigger, but they were sold out.

The only card game I ever played was Magic. I was never particularly good at it, but enjoyed it. I quit playing during 8th ED though. I have no idea what ED it's on now, but do know there are some gamers around here that can take you out in one turn. Those damn Infect decks are brutal.

What about something like react videos? Where the person has themselves in a small square in whatever corner and they're watching the video in full frame and vice versa? How do you do that?

Not around here it’s not. There’s hundreds of hotdog eating contests every year, and just about every steakhouse has some form of challenge. But then again, rednecks think that eating their weight in beef daily is the equivalent to a congressional Medal of Honor. So it’s normal around here.

A long time ago I heard or Nier Automata, but never paid it any real attention, because it wasn't really my kind of game. Or so I thought. But after watching the trailer you posted, my interest is peaked. I'll admit I knw nothing about the game, but the images do have me interested.

I know that I had to deal with broken game the first time around. The whole reason I got it on Switch is because it's a newer system and to me that should have meant that they had time to fix a lot of the bugs and blowouts that the early releases had. Also it's kinda nice to have it portable.

I switched systems for the game. I doubt I’ll play it on PS3 again. Now I’m playing it on Switch.

people are always talking about this. I don't have a clue how you would stream gaming, or even record it for that matter. I can play games obviously on my PC but doing anything that would be able to go online is out of my knowledge area. Do I need specific equipment, or does my computer/Windows come with what I need? I'm at a total loss here.

Pretty much any cemetery. I find more peace and serenity in cemeteries than I do anywhere else. When I was younger, If I wasn't able to sleep, I would go to a nearby cemetery with a blanket and a pillow. Sometimes in a mausoleum, other times just out in the open. I have always waited until late at night to walk in a cemetery. The stillness of the night, and the quiet is so relaxing. There was a forgotten cemetery in the woods near the house I grew up in that I spent a large amount of time at. The most recent headstone had a death date in 1927. The rest were from the mid to late 1800's. A lot of them were veterans from the Civil War. I spent time pulling up weeds, and trying to re-erect stones that had fallen over. Some were broken, so there wasn't too much I could do for them. I even took some black paint and repainted in the names and dates and everything on the old ones. They were limestone headstones, so they were worn down like crazy. That's the weird thing. The one that had the 1927 date on it was marble. All the rest were limestone. That always perplexed me. If I wasn't stuck in a damn wheelchair, I would go back to it. I really miss being able to visit that cemetery. I think I'm the only one that even knows about it anymore.

That’s when classic gaming comes into play. I play my NES, SNES, and N64 regularly. I’m on one, possibly two, every single day. No regrets.

AOE3 and Twilight Princess make the list for me. AOE had a very eye pleasing look, but the game was just horrible. It was tedious, boring, and just a pain in the ass. And WTF was up with the cheats? A monster truck and a bouncing bust of George Washington? Twilight Princess was absolutely stunning graphically. But the gameplay was so boring. Hyrule had little to offer, the dungeons were cheaply made, it was overblown, and being turned into a damn wolf was the straw that broke the camels back. Not to mention being forced to get whatever move the game wanted you to learn and not letting you progress in the game until you do get it. I know some are optional, but that’s just bullshit. Link is a swordsman, not a fucking ninja.

I’ve never been welcome in any crowd. Always rejected, before I even say my name. So I get attached to the group on FF8. It starts with a loner who isn’t interested in playing around and is all about getting the job done. Then slowly, after working with the other 5 characters they all end up becoming as close as blood. They end up remembering childhood things that they had all forgotten that brings them even closer still. Since I never had an actual family, and literally never once had a friend, I get attached to them. I feel like I’m part of the group when I play the game.

SC2 came out on Game Cube, PS2, and Xbox. I think SC5 is the current one. It may be up to 6 though. I haven’t really kept up with the series. I remember in SC2, the combos were really easy. I always used Kilik. I was best with him and really went far in the game.

I didn’t even start it. I loaded it. But that’s as far as I managed to get.
