Problem is - I use a cochlear implant and my taste in music is rather eclectic. Most people HATE my musical taste cuz unfortunately I don’t have the audio fidelity of full stereo sound that hearing people typically have. Thus my range of enjoyable listening is rather difficult to find. My wife finds my music…

*could* be wrong

Love the last point about readability. Too many games have large swathes of text. I’m all for subtitles, as I’m hard of hearing, but if you have long boring length of dialogue and shit... I’mma going to the next game on my hit list - thanks.

Well that might have been me when I was young and single. Now I only have two game categories, “The game I’m playing now” and “The game I wish I had more time to play”....

Because all we see is the end result, but cults often begin quite innocently and it’s a slow game of seduction where you give a little more trust every step of the way until finally you don’t know what you’ve gotten into.

That crap was fine when I was a kid and handle oodles of time to screw around, but now that I’m an adult with a limited amount of gaming time - cutting out the bullshit is highly appreciated. You don’t necessarily have to hold my hand - but if I was I was physically present in that world - don’t you think the quality…

Damn, wish I knew that. My whole childhood I had a couple lines of dead pixels on my Gameboy. Pretty much from day 1, but no matter how many times I exchanged it at the Toys R us there would always be a problem with it, so I just lived with it and figured that’s the way it went with gameboys....

Oh fuck, I remember how PISSED I was about the fucking price gouge at the grand canyon near Las Vegas, drove 2 hours on shitty roads to deal with a shitty tourist trap that cost an arm and leg. Jesus. And that was in 2008

LOL I must’ve said half of those to my daughter last week on Easter Vacation.

I’m actually going through the repair process on my 3DS too. So far they’ve said it’ll only be $106 no matter what. Which to me is extremely generous. I’m hoping it stays that way any nothing changes... We’ll see.

I wanna know the story behind that comment too...

Same, I finally pulled out my 3DS again only to discover it’s got some weird freezing issue. Have had to send it in for repair. Here’s hoping it comes back quickly.

Peach was my favorite, she could hover the longest. Dammit, now I want to replay. Wonder if it’s available for Switch?

And the sad thing is - where can you go? Sure if you want to go to some middle of no where place that has no running water, no facilties... I mean nothing that we’ve grown so accustomed to as a life for ourselves. The bottom line is - there isn’t much of anywhere in the world that isn’t ruled by banking and politics…

Because we’ve become a culture of SJW’s who think everything is a cross to bear and rage against.

Funny thing. I bought MEA right out of the gate when it was released and I hated it... picked it up again a couple months ago and now I love it. I don’t know if they added patches or maybe my perspective has changed but... I love it now.

Frankly - I think every kind of technologist should be unionized. If you give support via computers - it should be unionized. Gaming is only one aspect to the technology industry that gets abused. Along with the capacity to increase workload via computer, so goes the capacity for abuse by management and corporations.

I wonder if guys ever do that... measure their dicks. What kind of ruler do they use? Is it in Imperial or Metric? Do they measure to the tip? So many questions...

Oh god, when I was young and stupid I shot the air from the BB gun into my cousin’s ear. Stupidest thing I could ever have done. Obviously he went into a blind rage and kicked my ass. Damn lucky I didn’t blow his ear drum or worse - killed him. I’m a dad now, and if I caught my kid doing that...

Thank GOD we didn’t have access to handguns when I was a kid. My brother chasing me with an axe was hair raising enough.
