  1. I have an iPhone 12 pro, and would trade it in for an iPhone 15 max. My hands are so big (especially for a woman) that a regular size phone is just hard to use, so I need something physically bigger to make tings go easier and more smoothly. Don't get me wrong, the 12 pro is a great phone. But I can't count the number of times I've tried to post from it, and my message got so jacked up that no one could even understand what my point was. Most of the time, I was with them and couldn't understand or remember what the hell I was trying to say. I've gotten in trouble for it in the past, both before becoming a mod, and after becoming one. So I'm going to be looking forward to getting a new one that fits my hands better. @Rain Dew on the other hand (no pun intended) has really small hands and the only iPhone that fit her hands and actually use, was the mini. It was the only one she could actually hold.
  2. Like a fiend. I played it non stop whenever I could. We had family friends that had an Atari with it, Pitfall, Q*Bert, and Pacman. At least those are the ones I remember best. They actually had to get a second TV because we were always playing on the Atari. Frogger is a cherished memory from those days. At the time, that 2 bit was the cutting edge of graphics. That was before Nintendo came out with their 8 bit graphics, and completely changed the game. We were all amazed at how lifelike SMB was. But we still played the hell out of Frogger. The goddamn gators drove me nuts, but at least I could time my jumps however I wanted. Unlike withe the damn cars and trucks. I have to go on their schedule.😡 Ah well. I still kicked ass on it. And I still have it to this day on Atari, among other systems.
  3. It looks like Q*Bert fucked Final Fantasy. I'm in!
  4. Gameranx has done a bit of a review of the game. After seeing this, I say it's just a PS3 disc with a new label on the disc. Metaphorically speaking.
  5. The antichrist can be human or supernatural. The mythology says that people will be duped by them, and start thinking they're the correct prophet. In my opinion, that's a load of complete bullshit. The closest anyone would come to, is people. Especially people with a grudge (or total hatred) against xtianity.
  6. I picked this up yesterday, and want to get some reviews of it before I begin playing it. My PS5 came with Horizon Forbidden West preinstalled, and everyone said I should play Zero Dawn first. So I'm wanting to get a bit of info and opinions so I don't go in totally blind. What do you all know and think?
  7. Linkin Park is number 2 in my favorite bands. The only band above them is Disturbed. Disturbed's music is just awesome and every one of their songs tell a story.
  8. Yes rats are mischievous as hell. But that's part of their appeal. Coincidentally enough (and appropriately) a group of rats is called a Mischief. I've had and raised rats since I was a teenager. The first two I ever had was an albino female named Ghost, and a solid black male named Daemon. Ghost wasn't particularly friendly, but Daemon was friendly as hell. And smarter than a lot of people I knew. I've written an article about rats as a guide for anyone wanting to get any as pets. Wild rats get a bad rep due to the black plague. They carried the fleas that spread the disease so far and wide. So now people look at them as vermin. But when a wild rat saved your life, they tend to become sacred.
  9. First of all, welcome to VGR. Secondly, your game ideas seem like something that a lot of gamers would be interested in. You’re giving a hell of a lot of detail about them, which I for one appreciate. If I may, I would like to offer a bit of constructive criticism. Your Castlevania like game might not have any success. The fans of the franchise don’t want modern capabilities, such as guns.
  10. Stray Atlas Fallen Mortal Kombat 1 Has anyone gotten any of these games? Or at least knows of a review they can lead me to? Preferably YouTube, but articles are fine. They have peaked my interest, but I can't find much of anything about them. So I'm looking to get it straight from the horses mouth, so to speak.
  11. Has anyone got this? I'm wanting reviews before I buy, assuming I buy it at all. It looks good, but looks are deceiving. I haven't played every FF game, but I've played most of them. My favorite is FF8. I don't know if that would make a difference or not. I have tried FF14, and despised it simply because it's an online game. So if FFXVI is either a single player game, or has a single player mode, I'm interested. If it's strictly online, I have absolutely zero interest, and want nothing to do with the game.
  12. Wow. And I thought I had a lot of guns. I'm 100% sure he has modified at least one of those rifles to be fully automatic. Which adds another felony on top of his crimes. Not even the military is fully automatic. They only employ a 3 shot burst. At least with the M16's.
  13. This is from an email I got from an organization I follow, and occasionally donate to. I only changed things that directly call me by name and such to protect myself. With those exceptions, this is word-for-word exactly what the email said. ******************************************************************************* Dear MoveOn member, Last night, Donald Trump was indicted for the fourth time, and the charges lay out exactly what Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis believes Trump to be: an organized crime boss. Trump was charged with 13 felonies related to his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia, and 18 of his co-conspirators are charged as well, including Rudy Giuliani, his former chief of staff Mark Meadows, Sidney Powell, and John Eastman. The charges are all damning, but one stands out above the rest. Trump is being charged under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act statute in Georgia, more commonly known as RICO. If that word rings a bell, it's probably because you've heard it in a mafia movie, as RICO is most often used in cases involving organized crime. And that's exactly what this effort was. There are two important differences between this indictment in Georgia and the federal indictments Trump is currently facing. First, the RICO charge in Georgia is the first charge in any of the indictments that comes with a mandatory minimum sentence, five years in prison. Second, unlike the federal indictments, Trump will have no way to make this case in Georgia go away or pardon himself from the charges—even if he wins the 2024 election. MoveOn is determined to ensure Trump not only loses the 2024 election but that he is also finally held accountable for his crimes—and to the fullest extent of the law. That will require us to run the largest presidential election campaign in our 25-year history, and we can do it only with your help. MoveOn has been preparing for this moment for months, and we are ready to stand at the forefront of the fight against Donald Trump. Here is just some of what we have planned: A massive effort to disqualify Trump from the ballot. The 14th Amendment makes it clear that no person who engaged in insurrection against the United States may ever hold office again. We are calling on secretaries of state across the country to do their constitutional duty by refusing to certify Trump as a candidate for president, and our call is gaining momentum. Just last week, two conservative lawyers from the Federalist Society joined our call to disqualify Trump. Our petition has almost 400,000 signatures. A huge ad campaign to ensure that voters know exactly what crimes Trump has committed. Polling is beginning to show that these indictments are causing Trump to lose support, but we need to educate voters so that people who don't closely follow the news know about the crimes and are motivated to ensure that Trump loses. We are planning a huge, monthslong ad campaign to hammer that message home all the way until Election Day. The largest voter turnout campaign we have ever run. As these charges remind us, Trump lost Georgia by only a razor-thin margin, which means that every single vote is critical. MoveOn will be expanding our successful work from 2020 and 2022 to turn out "high-potential voters"—voters of color and young voters who otherwise may not vote—in swing districts and states, using innovative digital and on-the-ground strategies. Before this year, no president or former president of the United States had ever been charged with a crime. Over the last five months, Trump has been charged with 91 felonies. After so many years of getting away with his crimes scot-free, it finally seems that the chickens are coming home to roost. And yet, Trump is still the unrivaled front-runner for the Republican nomination, and polling has him in a dead heat with President Biden in a general election matchup. That means the work MoveOn is doing to hammer home the message to voters about Trump's criminality and disqualification from holding public office could not be more important. We have a real opportunity to put a stop to Donald Trump and the MAGA movement once and for all in 2024.
  14. I've never heard of it, but after seeing some screenshots, it looks like Sony's version of F-Zero. I'm not going to lie, I love F-Zero. So, unless I'm wrong, it looks like Sony should have hit a home run with this one. In my opinion anyway.
  15. I can't say that I've played most of them, but I've played the hell out of number one.
  16. It's very possible that the Xbox Series X, the Switch, and the disc capable PS5 are going to be the last systems that offer physical media capabilities. People are already buying digital games. Even I have bought a lot of them. I would honestly be surprised if the next gen has even one system that could run physical media.
  17. I'm watching this video again, and something caught my eye. What does this look like to everyone else.........?
  18. It's worse than we thought. The re-release actually has LESS content than the original PS3 release. Not to mention it being released on Switch, which is a severely bad move. Switch doesn't run AAA titles worth a shit. The only plus it has in that arena is being mobile. And the price tag of $49.99 (£39.37/€45.65) is just bullshit. Here's the article.
  19. I thought it was insane when they went nuts on the blue M&M for being “too sexy”. Listen, if you’re turned on and getting all hot and bothered by a piece of chocolate with a colored coating, then the candy ain’t the problem. But now they’re taking things up a notch and going just too goddamn far. I don’t know where it can possibly go from here. What food will be sexualizing children next? Hot dogs because of their phallic design? But regardless of what it is, they’ll find a way to blame it on us. The LGBTQ+ community. At this point the shit officially hit the fan and no one had time to duck. It is now apparently a competition to see who can make the sane world reach for a bucket the fastest. https://www.meidastouch.com/.amp/news/stephen-miller-gay-pop-tarts-kelloggs
  20. I just wonder how long it will be before they try to sue nature when a rainbow pops up after a rainstorm. I guarantee some psychopath is going to do something along those lines.
  21. It is surprising that a GI Joe game hasn't been made. From what I gather it's a really popular toy. I mean TMNT has a ton of games, so why not a classic? While girls mostly have dolls, I was a huge turtle fan and had every one that came out. I also had the 3 movies. However, that was before they started completely remaking the whole thing. But GI Joe has a cartoon, movies, and toys. So (unless I'm missing something) why the hell hasn't there been a GI Joe game?
  22. The first one that comes to mind for me, is the Red Dead franchise. That includes all 3 games. The fan base is extremely loyal. Trust me on that one. But there are those that look specifically for fan made games. For example I have three. The Legend Of Zelda Ancient Stone Tablets The Legend Of Zelda Goddess Of Wisdom The Legend Of Zelda Parallel Worlds While a lot of people stick to those kind of games, I no longer play them. With Goddess Of Wisdom, after six years I had only made it to the third temple. The difficulty is beyond extreme to the point that trying to play it is just cruel. It was literally designed to not be beaten. But as @killamch89 pointed out, Zelda has a massive cult following. I have been playing the franchise since its inception, and have only abandoned 2 games that I can think of. Windwaker, and Twilight Princess. I refuse to play Windwaker simply due to the graphics. With TP, while it had beautiful graphics, it was just massively overdone. A very poor attempt at an open world Zelda. The Mario franchise has so damn many entries and it's not just a franchise anymore. It's a world that literally offers you pretty much anything you can think of. It has so many branches that even trees are saying it needs pruning. There are so damn many, that I wouldn't be willing to even try to list all the games. It's beyond massive.
  23. They don't care about women anymore. It's a "Never said do what I do, I said do what I say" situation. We no longer have freedoms anymore. Only privileges. We are literally watching the destruction of the former United States Of America. Everything is being dismantled, twisted, rewritten, and willfully misunderstood. We modeled our government after the Roman system, and look what happened to them. The only difference is that the crumbling of our country happened in less than 250 years, whereas with the Romans, it took well over 1,000 years. Which means we have been gunning for this hard and heavy. This shit is why Americans have been fleeing the country in droves seeking asylum. I have every intention of applying for asylum in Canada if it gets much worse. I have already spoken to the Canadian government about it, and have all the necessary paperwork ready to go. Those of us of the LGBTQ+ community have a much bigger target not only on our backs, but now our fronts as well. We're the new boogeyman. Especially the transgender community. And like you said, discrimination is legal now on the basis of religion. Which means I can refuse to drive someone based on the fact that they're xtian. I do a rideshare, and can now legally ask someone if they're xtian, and if they say yes, I can tell them to piss off. That it's my right to discriminate on the basis of religion. And there would be nothing they could do about it. Kinda sucks when your bigotry backfires on you, doesn't it? Also I have said it many times, but it merits being said again: Welcome to the fourth reich.
  24. I wish he was wrong. But he's not.
