So nice to see someone else voice this... I am in the exact same boat.

I can watch any horror movie, giggle though any level of gore and the worst thing del Toro can dream of... but when a game puts me into water, I am instantly terrified and a lot of times will avoid or bail out of a game just to avoid the sensation.

M…

Not even taken from “his book”...

This entire story is based on a short blurb from some writer’s book (who obviously does not like Trump)... from 25 years ago. Nobody knows when it happened, Playboy has no memory of it, and the Trump camp said it’s a lie, but hey, print it anyway!

(FWIW, I’m in no way a pumpkin-man…

I don’t agree with a lot of what you said here, but I’ll give you huge points for addressing the North American (continent) aspect of it, which people rarely do...

My Grandmother never called herself Indian or Native American and would just say, “I’m Lenape”, but from what I understand the root of that tribe’s name…

Worth looking/asking at your bank as well... Two of the three local branches of my bank/credit union have the machines with no fees at all.

Huh? The project lingered in development hell for close to 20 years and likely would have stayed there had Ramis not passed away... It was quite literally the only reason Reitman finally walked away and allowed someone else to finally get it made. (With his full support incidentally.)

It’s been reviewed well, enjoyed…

Lego Marvel Avengers is also on sale on Amazon right now. $24.50 on Ps4, and I believe $35 on Xbone. Easily the cheapest I’ve seen it yet, the digital copy at Amazon (and physical at any retail store) is still $50...

Hah, ok, fair enough... Now that I think about it, I had to buy a better charger as none of the half-dozen I had could keep the thing at full juice while it was running, and I ended up buying the controller too when using a Dual Shock on it became more of a hindrance than I wanted....

I’ll also give you that it doesn’t…

Haha, yeah, I have a ton of console emulators on my Nvidia Shield; I’ll regularly fire one up, play about 30 seconds of 20 different games... and then remember why I hadn’t played any of them in a decade. It’s a fun little nostalgia trip, but it’s also kind of depressing when you realize how shallow everything was (in…

Oh, I hear you on how long ago it was, I just meant I would be no more surprised by someone saying they remembered Parappa, Spyro, Syphon Filter, or Twisted Metal... Jet Moto was that big of a deal to my circle of friends.

I wish I could get excited about the concept of rebooting games like that, but I personally just…

Well, from what I understand, the Ps3 processor was considered “alien” in structure by a lot of game devs, and was also obscenely powerful. (Last I heard, there was even some benchmarks you could run on it that would surpass Ps4) So, those two things coupled together are both the reason why there is no legitimate Ps3…

Well, it’s not exactly a hidden gem... It was one of the biggest profile, most respected racing games on the Ps1. (Not to mention it had a very well-received PC port as well.)

It was crazy-hard (and 2 was even harder), which turned a lot of people off, but everyone I knew who had a Ps1 played the hell out of that game.

Rebel Galaxy is flipping awesome; easily one of my favorite indie titles on Ps4. (Frankly kinda surprised to see Patrick poo-poo the Ps4 offerings for the month when that’s in there...)

So far as BC on Ps4 goes, it’s just not possible; the architecture is just too different. The only way it would even be theoretically…

MUA2 was/is hardly “garbage”... It got relatively solid reviews, and I personally had blast with it. Also, it does have Alt costumes, just (IIRC), only had one per character as opposed to the original which had a few (3?) each...

No question both games have repetitive combat, but given the genre and era of them, it’s…

The K1 still is a costly affair?

It’s $200... for a top-of-the line tablet/console hybrid that can play the entire Android game library as well as it’s own proprietary titles, has massive emulation/homebrew support, can be used as a media center, and can stream games from PC & Ps4...

I seriously don’t consider that…

I don’t think it would really serve it that well honestly... It’s not the visuals holding it back these days, it’s the relatively archaic game-play and wildly unpredictable physics.

I had played it when it came out and loved it, but I just recently revisited it on Nvidia Shield... and, man, it’s not super easy to go…

So much wrong with this point of view... For starters, digital distrobution isn’t free. It costs a whole lot of money to store and transfer those massive files. Beyond that, production costs are an insanely minuscule fraction of a game’s total price...

Last breakdown I read was about 1/2 to the publisher and 1/3 to…

Yep, I also remember that back in the day most pre-owned places wouldn’t take a game without the manual either. Now they don’t even require the dang box.

Same here. I even had the SMS and I still didn’t know those existed...

From what I just read (and despite them being released after Genesis came out), they are not simply watered down ports of the 16-bit titles. Apparently Sonic 2 especially is an entirely different game on the MS. Slightly mind-blowing...

Well, the site itself seemed to handle the traffic well enough... It was noticeably slower when it was populating pages full of items, but it was completely usable. I’m guessing they just didn’t accurately load-test this one particular action.

I’m just speculating, but it appeared that there was a (very short) timeout…
