    Coolio died yesterday (9-28-2022) at a friends house. He was 59 years old. Apparently he just dropped dead in the bathroom. He finally reached the Gangstas Paradise.
    Rest In Peace, Coolio. You have earned it.

    Thank you all for these great recommendations.
    I love Zelda, I really do. I wish the weapons didn't break in Breath of the Wild and that I was better at figuring out the combat system and what to do/where to go.
    I'll try to contribute back to the forum somehow - my vid game knowledge is limited in recent years, but I'll try to put in some response posts to threads where I can.

    The Blackangel got a reaction from melanie_marie27 in Best Bottled Water in your opinion   
    We have small, large, and jumbo size bottles of Fiji here. 500ml, 1 liter, and 1½ liter.
    A hell of the water here in the states is too toxic to drink, and I'm not talking about Flint. Their water is deadly, whereas with the rest of the country, it's just too toxic to drink. It's fine to do things like shower and do laundry. But it's too dangerous to drink it.
    It was somewhat like that for me. The water at home was enough to make you sick just from the taste alone. But only a couple miles away at my grandmas house, the water tasted amazing. And we were on the same lines. I'll never understand what the hell the damn difference was, but I guess it's a moot point these days.

    The Blackangel reacted to Yaramaki in Microsoft accuses Sony of paying developers to keep some games off Xbox Game Pass   
    The Blu-ray disc association are the patent holders of licensing blu-ray so let it be clear that Sony isn't the sole patent holder of the blu-ray technology, was going to react to this yesterday but it probably slipped my mind and got sidetracked along the way. It's doubtfull that sony alone would even be able to provoke microsoft their license for putting their games on blu-ray discs, besides if it were to happen nothing a big sack of cash can't solve. No with Physical media sales in decline they aren't going to stop microsoft from putting their games on blu-ray and grab whatever money they can get.

    Your confusion is completely understandable. And thank you for not holding your tongue, as many do. What we're looking for is members wanting to add to the forum, not their personal numbers. What many don't realize is that posting numbers don't relate to popularity. Members who have posted for years now have gotten a feel for this place, and know how things work. Thus their posts are for the most part on topic and educating. Sure there are places to post goofy and light hearted fun, and that's always welcome in the correct sub-forum. If you look at the leader boards, you will see many people leading in different categories. But just because they are leading in the category doesn't mean that every post they have made was worth making. So post as much as you want. We don't mean machine gun posting. But post when and where you feel you can add to the discussion. If you have any questions you can always PM me, or @Shagger and @DC if you prefer. Part of our job is helping members when they need it.

    The Blackangel got a reaction from runswithspatulas in What was the worst thing about gym class?   
    Having to interact with a bunch of assholes you didn't like to begin with. I took body conditioning as an alternative to typical gym class. Body conditioning was just spending time in the weight room, without any kind of set activity. If you just wanted to stand around and chat that was all you did. I did max out on some weights. I could push 410 on the leg press, squat 250, and even got to where I could curl 100. Most didn't dare try to challenge my records. Funny enough, I could never bench more than 115. Being a girl, I typically just benched the bar (45 pounds). The guys enjoyed watching me. Perverts every one of them. So I eventually just started going to the gym and running laps. The guys in the class were always too busy playing basketball to notice me, which made it even better.

    The Blackangel got a reaction from killamch89 in GoldenEye 007 is finally coming to Xbox and Nintendo Switch   
    I don't know how to feel about this either. Goldeneye 007 was a monumental game, and pretty much universally loved. But sometimes for a game to remain legendary, it needs to stay where it was to begin with. I'm not saying that a remake/remaster is necessarily a bad idea. But the odds of them screwing the game up by adding too many junk features, or removing something the gamers felt was critical are just way too high in my opinion. I say leave it alone and leave it where it is. Or if you're desperate to bring it back CHANGE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Give the gamers what they remember and love. Update the graphics if you have to change anything, but just give us what we loved. Personally I won't be playing it on anything new, because I feel that the N64 graphics are part of the charm. The crux of being a classic gamer.

    The Blackangel got a reaction from killamch89 in Games you'd want to take with you to the grave   
    If I was to list all the games that I would want to take with me, we would be here all day. So instead, I would rather take the system itself. That being said, I would take an NES with me. But if I absolutely have to pick a game it would definitely be Legacy Of The Wizard. Not because it's a favorite, but because I have been playing it for more than 30 years, and STILL haven't been able to beat the bastard. Those crowns are impossible to find. I have found only one crown so far and I have to find FOUR OF THE GOD DAMN THINGS!
    This game has been making me nuts for more than three decades. It has earned the right to make me clinically insane for the rest of eternity.
    wait a minute.......... "make me"?

    Technically speaking, you're right. But when someone you love is unable to come home for "a few more days" those days feel like a lifetime. Trust me on that. We're going out of town for about a week here soon, and I'm already having separation anxiety due to being away from my pitbull for so long. I'm looking forward to getting home to see her again as much as I am to the trip, if not moreso.

    The Blackangel got a reaction from Akun in Addiction   
    Alcoholism tends to run in my family, so I'm predisposed to it. My parents were both heavy chain smokers. The instant they put one out, they lit up another one. Even when pregnant with me, my mother didn't quit or even slow down. The damage it did to me while I was in utero is pretty obvious to those that know me in person.
    I understand your compulsion. Many men I have known had addiction to pornography. I don't really get it myself, but that doesn't negate the fact that it's a real addiction. That's why there's sex addict support groups, the same as there is AA and NA.

    It depends on the game. Some of the games I hate the sounds so much that I play them muted. Some I have to lower the sound on certain aspects. Some are just too repetitive or too annoying. They start bugging my anxiety.

    The Blackangel got a reaction from Heatman in What game broke you of completing all side quests?   
    RDR2. There's the trapper requests, and I can't do it. The reason why, is because for a few articles of clothing that he can make, it requires rats. One hat requires ten rat pelts, and another requires a single rat pelt. I will never harm or kill a rat. They are sacred animals to me, so I no longer try to complete all side quests. I complete as much and as many as I can. But there's a limit to what I will do.
