Thank you for giving this fantastic (and painfully forgotten game) some credit for that cinematic intro.  I still can’t believe how good it is on that first console.  Simply beautiful...and while I understand how many people could get confused/frustrated with some of the game’s tricky mechanics, to that I say: Pop

Now playing

Props for the love of the Rood Inverse. I made myself a PS3 theme of it and even recorded sound effects from the game just to put into the theme and use as notification sounds on my phone (yes, to this day).

Sorry, Peter, it sounds like you didn’t have a Wunderland 5-cent arcade around in your youth. TMNT the arcade game was a BIG deal back in the day, and I excitedly went there with my roll of $5 worth of nickles. Crazily the game took TWO NICKLES, a first for the 5-cent system...but I didn’t care! I played through that

I also came to the comments to see if I was the only one that got that delightful old-school reference.  You, dear community, did NOT disappoint me!  A star well-deserved!

This...actually looks pretty good. I guess you could say I’m in the Diablo II camp, enjoying its dark and gritty gameplay/story.

That was the big surprise of the day on Sunday, that 7-time winner Jonas didn’t place this year.

I don’t like your comment!  It definitely didn’t make me laugh!  GET RID OF IT!!!

I was going to make a “Dang, we can’t do it - let the modders figure it out” joke, but everyone beat me to the punch.

Zero saves on 100%? Dude...Respect!

Ideas for Gamestop to suck less:

Oddly enough Wipeout VR didn’t make me sick at all. It took a bit of getting used to it, but for some reason it didn’t trigger my upchuck reflect like Skyrim VR did. Maybe it’s the smoothness, or the sense of being in the vehicle.

Great jeorb!

You actually made me unintentionally laugh out loud...an actual LOL.  Well done, here’s your star!

Double XP actually got a true LOL (actual laugh out loud) moment.  I’ve been there, man.  Some deals aren’t deals once you’ve got to go through the finding of the long-lost sales associate.  Looking at you, Walmart!

It is indeed still good! Heck, it turned young me, the boy into a MAN. That’s truly how I felt the first time I beat it without Konami code. It’s still my claim to gamer-fame amongst old friends.

I’m not certain I’ve got it right, but my guess was that previous F*** everything guy was going to kill everyone for fun (good times). F*** horse guy actually may want to have relations with said horse...which would function as the punchline (that is, if my guess is right).

Ah, yes, one of the few movies I flat-out walked out of. I went with a buddy and we both had a bad feeling when it had only been out about a week and there was ONE other dude in the entire theater.

Two years ago I went to the Retro Gaming Expo and saw that there were qualifiers for a Tetris competition. I thought, “Yeah, I’m pretty good at tetris...I got to level 21 once long ago” and then I watched Jonas on the big screen (I didn’t know who he was at the time) top out the score.

Yeah, Jonas is a class act. I’ve been lucky enough to see him twice in person at these awesome competitions, and he truly claps for the other guy when he loses, and seems to be a truly good sport about wins or losses.  Not something you see nowadays, unfortunately.

Right!? His non-verbal looks, the hair, even the way he spoke was SPOT ON! There were times where I flat-out forgot it was Fillion, because I was watching NATHAN DRAKE come alive!
