Checks out... I got my first financed car from a buy here pay here lot in “that part” of Schenectady. I probably should have known better than to sign a contract in the amazingly shady-looking office (trailer) of this place, but I was a dumb kid (18 I think), and I desperate. I was a pizza delivery guy at the time, so

Ah, I gotcha. So not limiting your abilities, as much as just how visible you can be with them. That could be super-cool. I’m down with it. Heh, make it happen.   

Well, I haven’t played Sunset, but based on enjoying every Insomniac game I have ever played, I’ll join you in being (cautiously) optimistic about it; I just fear a bunch of Peter choose-your-own-conversation segments or some recyclable minigame where you walk around the city (at a snail’s pace) taking photographs...

Haha, yeah, that’s very, very true. There’s certainly way more examples of horrible misfires when attempting those divergences than there are success stories. Hell, just look at my avatar; I like to pretend that abomination never even happened...

I dunno man, that is the only piece of information revealed so far that gives me serious pause... I can’t think of a single time playing as the hero’s “secret identity” or in some sudden narratively-driven, powerless segment wasn’t a horrible slog of tedium.

Those sequences in most hero games are generally the point

Sure, but you also get things like The Crow (1), which outside of his makeup was about as far removed from the books as humanly possible... and yet was still a pop-culture defining thing that everyone (including me, who read them) absolutely loved. A good story is a good story, and I’m just not sure I can get on-board

You get that “Hollywood” doesn’t give a rat’s patootie about being “true to the source” or to “the fans”, ya? Look at the Avengers, or Iron Man... 99% of the movie-going audience (in a figure I just invented based on anecdotal evidence) had no relationship with those characters at all, outside of probably having seen

Calling it a “remote control” is extremely downplaying what that thing is... It’s a hub solution, and the remote is just one piece of it. I have a different model that was slightly less expensive ($150 IIRC), but it’s worth its weight in gold if you have a large/complex setup.

I press one single button (or say “watch

Nope, what you’re talking about was a Ps3-era peripheral for playing Move games. (The Sharpshooter.)

AIM is a dedicated VR gun they released last month for Ps4. You don’t snap anything into it, it’s a fully featured Dual Shock 4, with rumble, both analog sticks and all the buttons, in the shape of a two-handed rifle.

It

Yeah, I’m sure you’re right, it’s just wishful thinking... I’ve been hanging onto these Xbox games for years despite my OG box dying a decade ago, just because they were so important to me in their day.

If I could buy the XoX and not only get rid of my 360, but also be able to play all these OGX games collecting dust,

The other question being, is this just the 360 BC list ported over, or true compatibility where you can play any and all Xbox games you own on disk, ala Ps1/2 on (launch) Ps3s?

That’s already playable on 360, so I’m sure it will; they currently sell it digitally. I turned on my 360 the other day specifically to see if I could buy it.

Yeah, that list is what I’m most interested in here... A bunch of my favorite Xbox games were never on the 360 BC list (The Matrix titles and Total Overdose come to mind.) If they will run on the Xbone, I’ll definitely buy one.

I think ababyseal was more commenting on how well the PsVR Aim Controller works for FPSs in VR... (and it does work excellently.)

Was thinking similarly myself when I read this. My mother knew something was off with my son when he was still an infant; like, less than six months old if I remember correctly... We pretty much dismissed her completely, which was absurd given her background as a special ed teacher, but denial is a hell of a drug.

I’m

Oh, no question there... The whole, “you killed my childhood” reactions were just laughable (currently resurfacing on the announcements of Labyrinth and Dark Crystal sequels,) and the so-called MRA response was even worse.

I can’t believe in 2+ years nobody has corrected this incorrect correction... Well, let me be the pedantic fanboy to correct your pedantic correction.

Bill Bixby did NOT play Bruce Banner, he played David Banner.
Both Dr. Banner and the Hulk were changed for the TV show; they are a wholly different interpretation than

Not debating the absurdity of the GB reboot backlash in the slightest, but it is a pretty different scenario here... This is a simple remake, from a film series that nobody was really pining for another entry in at this point anyway. GB3 was somewhere between unsubstantiated rumor and development hell for like 20

Said that myself above... It’s actually very, very good; still play it all the time, and my kid freaking loves it.

It’s actually a really deep game. Has tons of modes and tracks, dozens and dozens of cars, jumps, tricks, power-ups, branching paths, shortcuts, absolutely perfect control and drifting, and looks pretty

Cars 2 (Ps3/360) was actually really, really good; I still play it with my son all the time. It got solid metacritic scores, and several of the big game sites gave it glowing reviews. This is by the same dev team, and looks to be that game, with modernized graphics.

Really not sure what all the sarcasm/hate is
