    Yeah, we were all like WTF? Why IMO? He made us to understand that it's where he found happiness. 

    We all had to rally ourselves and give him support. It's where his heart beats for. 

    I have to ask: what is IMO? Unless you're saying "In My Opinion" I don't get what it is.

  2. Honestly, not a whole lot. I have more games than I can play in a year, even if I only play them once in that year. So I don't buy a whole lot of games, unless it's part of a set that I enjoy (Dark Pictures Anthology for example) or one that I have just been looking forward to.

  3. I've always been a console gamer. I grew up with Nintendo, before PlayStation and Xbox existed. Aside from the classic games I play virtually every day, I game more on PlayStation these days. I rarely use my Xbox. I do play a lot on my Switch still. As for phone, I have a couple games on there that I play all the time. Sudoku being one.

  4. I would say that it's one of the best horror games out there if you want my opinion. @Kane99's analysis of it is more or less correct about the bones of the game, but there's a lot more in it than just walking around and finding jump scares. It's a psychological game. It hits things in your mind that are laying dormant and waiting for the right time to make themselves known.

  5. This is more or less of a "my dick's bigger" contest between them. They're at the top of the gaming scene alongside Nintendo, and they want to act like idiots throwing around claims that are most likely baseless. But if they think it can hurt their competitor in some way, they'll do it. However, if Sony really wanted to fuck Microsoft, they could revoke their license of being able to put their games on Blu-ray discs. Sony owns that patent, so Microsoft better play nice or they could be in a world of hurt.

    Personally, I don't really give a shit. I play the games, but stay out of the politics.

    pretending to have schizophrenia.

    That's something that more than pisses me off. I'm schizophrenic and seeing someone pretend to have it makes my blood boil. And to add insult to injury, typically they don't even get that right. So many people have it in their heads that schizophrenia is multiple personalities. IT'S FUCKING NOT. Schizophrenia is hearing voices and seeing things that shouldn't be there. I hear ghostly voices that say really freaky shit, and I see shadow people every damn day. Shadow people are some seriously annoying bastards.

    But that I go through that shit, and someone pretending they have it for some idiotic reason makes me want to rip out their eyes and bust their ear drums. Then they wouldn't have to worry about seeing or hearing anything.

    Also I'm on some really potent anti-psychotics for this. It's not something to be made light of. No mental disease is.

    Given that Rockstar doesn't seem keen on the world remembering that Red Dead Revolver even existed, I'd say no. Think about it, why else would they name the third game in the series Red Dead Redemption 2? Maybe @The Blackangel or somebody else who has played RDR2 more extensively can help me out with this, but it seems to me that if Rockstar wanted to acknowledge and honour Red Dead Revolver, they would have named the third game "Red Dead Revelation" or whatever word fits with the theme and the story, but no. They named it Red Dead Redemption 2, like they were trying to brush the first game under the carpet and pretend it was never there. I know Read Dead Revolver was more obscure and didn't sell nearly as well as the sequel, but I hardly think that meant it deserved to ignored. To few people even know about Red Dead Revolver that they can't announce a remake or remaster without confusing everyone and exposing the poor choice they made with naming Red Dead Redemption 2, so this will never happen.

    It won't happen, unless they lease the franchise out to another company. But if for some dumbass reason they DO lease it, all we're going to get is another Link: The Faces of Evil and Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon. Complete shit that doesn't even resemble the game that it's supposed to be a sequel to. They were able to make RDR2, because people wanted to know what the relation between John was to Bill, Javier, and Dutch. People were confused as to how they knew each other so well. So a prequel was made to explain all the unanswered questions. But with Red Dead Revolver, they don't see it as a game in the same franchise anymore. It's considered a stand alone and not related to RDR in any way in their eyes. It's just another western game, that didn't do as well as they had hoped. Not to mention that the vast majority of their focus in geared towards the GTA franchise and GTA Online. GTA is their biggest cash cow, so Rockstar is devoting almost all of their time to it. The only thing they can even do at this point with the Red Dead Revolver/Redemption franchise is either a sequel playing as Jack, or another prequel where it was just Arthur, Dutch, and Hosea, which would then show and explain how the gang came to be.

    Rockstar doesn't really want it to be known that Revolver is in the same world as Redemption.

  8. We have all done it at some point. A lot of people have their profile visited on a nearly daily basis. But why? For me, I typically visit someone's profile because I'm looking for a post they have made at one point or another. I know everyone here very well, and know their personality as well as anyone can online. But often there's a comment someone has made that I want to find and possibly quote in another thread, rather than give a link to the post. So that's my reason. What's yours?

    Another thing, if a person is really into violence and murder, I think they would be very interested in games with violence in it. Now before anyone says "games don't cause violence" I'm not saying that. I'm saying that I think violent video games, may be of interest for violent people. But you could probably say that about any form of media, as I imagine someone who is very violent or into violence, would also be into movies, TV shows and other forms of media about it too. 

    But yeah, I think there are people out there who love violence in the games, because they have that personality. I don't want to make this about violent video games though, as I don't think a video game can make one violent. But I can see people who are like that, being into that type of media even more. Does that make sense? 

    It absolutely makes sense. No game will make a person violent. I'm an extremely violent person, and I love Hatred among others. I get to go out and just kill everyone I see in the game. It gives me a feeling of euphoria. It's almost a sexual thrill to murder everyone in sight. Dopamine floods my body, and I pretty much get off playing the game. The more violent a games is, the more likely I will enjoy it.

    Also it saves lives in the real world. All too often I want to arm up and just go around killing everyone I see. No reason, I just want to see blood fly and listen to the screams. I want to see and hear the agony in a persons eyes and voice when they watch someone they love die. It's bliss to me. Putting another person in as much pain as possible, in as many ways as possible is the greatest feeling.

    I don't do anything of the kind to @Rain Dew as I love her too much to harm her. But she knows my inclinations and desires. She also keeps me grounded and in control of my desires.

    Also, I find solace among the dead. I visit cemeteries at night, and when I was younger I would sleep in them amongst the graves.

     

    So the games give me that, and simultaneously save real human lives.
