The Blackangel

There were a couple Super Scope games that were good. Metal Clash was the one I liked best, if memory serves me. I don't remember much about any others, as I haven't touched a Super Scope since the SNES heyday.

If I'm awake I usually tend to just grab my MP3 player and listen to music. I would watch DVD's on my portable, but the noise airplanes make is too loud to hear the movies. Which is confusing because I can hear my music just fine. But this MP3 player is a gift from the Gods. I've had it since the Bush administration, and even stepped on it accidentally at one point. And it still works as if I just took it out of the package. It has a 4gig storage and I absolutely love it.

We haven't driven any of our people to lower themselves to republican status. We fight hard to get rid of all the terrorists in our political system (Chump and Dense for example), and bring in intelligent people that will fight for creating and maintaining a functioning country, while facing the threats to our world like climate change. It's why I support Tom Steyer. He's the last hope this country has.

@DC if you ever want to go with an animal mascot I recommend either a rat or a pitbull. Either Would be appropriate. And I can ever offer the pics.

First off, a "real man" has to exist. Males are all horny 17 year old boys. But if there was a "real man" he wouldn't be afraid of his emotions. He wouldn't be afraid to cry. he would be strong when needed and sensitive when needed. He would be the type to take care of his family, and be responsible for his actions. He would be honest. He would be trustworthy. And above all he would be authentic to himself. But since no man like that exists, we're all stuck with nothing but horny 17 year old boys.

On one hand, I can understand why they do it. If you're bullied incessantly, at some point you're gonna snap. I remember beating the shit out of kids due to bullying in school before I dropped out my Junior year. The bullying I went through was relentless. But I never took a gun to school and shot up the place. On the other hand, when that person snaps, they may go the other way. Instead of leaving the situation, they try to kill it. That's what war is all about. I'll support a justified war. But something like this, I look down on it with disgust. Murder is so generic and uncreative. Where's the art? Where's the creativity? Do something that will be unique and worthy of being remembered. Don't take the lazy way. If you are going to take the lazy way, then you kill the offending persons FAMILY not them. Make them live with the knowledge that their actions caused their loved ones to die. That's more of a punishment then killing the person that hurt you.

Actually there's not a whole lot of that on the DW. that's a myth. The DW is full of bizarre and extremely controversial stuff, but the illegal stuff is rather rare. You have to specifically look for it. And as for those DW mystery boxes that you see all over YouTube? Pure bullshit. None of us know where the hell people got that idea. No one in their right mind would buy a box of random shit on the DW and actually give their address to someone there. You're setting yourself up as a patsy doing that. On the forums, we all get a laugh out of that.

It's mostly a turn based game. But the best part is listening to Iron Maiden through the game.

I didn't really play anything yesterday. I fell asleep really early last night. Somewhere around 5:00 and actually had to be woken up to be told to go to bed, LOL.

Are we talking something compatible with a specific game company? Like something that plays Xbox games? Or are we talking a whole new Gaming console completely different that uses its own format?

Yeah, but with everything turning into digital downloads, backwards compatibility won't be an issue. You just pick the game you want, whether it's 30 days old or 30 years old, and download it. Some will download it to remember the "good ol' days" and others will download it out of curiosity. 20 years from now some college freshman may get curios as to what the hell Q*Bert is and download it. 20 years after that, another college freshman may get curious as to what the hell Skyrim is and download that. They won't even know what a PS4, Xbox One, or Nintendo Switch is. They probably won't even know what PlayStation, Xbox, or Nintendo even means. Their only knowledge will be different companies putting out games they can download on to their gaming storage unit. But by then it will also most likely be a Ready Player One situation. These are sad times. Be ready to be dinosaurs people.

Duck Hunt was the shooter for me. The Zapper was fun as hell to play with. Silent Scope in the arcades was a great one too.

I wouldn't know, as I usually tend to sleep on airplanes, unless it's an extremely short flight.

Since the PS2, most consoles can be stood up on end, and that gives a much bigger exposed area to expel more heat and keep them cooler. But if that isn't working enough, then a small desk fan should do the trick. It has done wonders for me. Or if you're in a relatively small room, and can stand it, you could just put in an air conditioner for that room. For example I turned one of the small extra bedrooms in my house into a home office. It's where I spend most of my time. An AC unit would turn the room into an icebox if I put one in. Or if you don't have a window, you can buy AC units that aren't window units, but they are expensive as hell. Several hundred, pushing close to $1k.

I don’t think I have even one digital game. All of mine are physical copies.

I downloaded this the other day, and so far it's freaking awesome. I haven't come across any PFP crap yet, or loot boxes. So it's all good so far. Is anyone else playing this? What are your thoughts so far?

I make the occasional YouTube video. They're nothing special, and I only have 2 videos uploaded at the moment anyway. But it's fun to do when the urge strikes me.

Not really. Like I said, it was difficult.

I just got home from the movies about 30 minutes ago. I saw 2 movies. The first one that I saw was Fantasy Island. I would give it a solid 8/10. It was good. It had a few twists and turns that I didn't anticipate. Nothing all that dramatic, but it was still a good movie. The other was Knives Out. That one, was...…..lets call it difficult. It's hard to give it a rating, because on one hand it was just pure dog shit, but on the other hand, it was awesome. All I can say is that if you haven't seen it, then go watch it and you'll understand. If you have seen it, then you know exactly what I'm saying.

I honestly don’t think it will matter after a short while. Everything will be a digital download, so it’s not like reverse play will even be an issue at that point.

Only when they’re trolling. The online badass type. Other that that I really don’t give a shit.

I want to say one of Disturbed’s songs was in a video game, but I can’t for the life of me remember what game. I’m pretty sure the song was Down With The Sickness, though.

I could teach you to bluff IRL, but in a video game I probably couldn’t help. So much of bluffing is body language and showing absolutely no reaction whatsoever to your cards, whether you have a royal flush, or absolutely nothing with a 9 high. Basically to be able to bluff successfully, you have to more or less be a professional liar.

I've been there before. there have been a lot of movies that I just wasn't good with the first time around. My all time favorite movie is one of them. I made myself sit down and watch it a second time and I loved it. It was a bitch to follow the first time, but not now.
