re: Starcraft Shooter coming in 2030

For some reason, I thought they had made a single-player shooter in the past. It looks like the Starcraft: Ghost game was canceled in 2006.

Everything is overly detailed to the point of it looking fake

Reality isn't as detailed as Links clothes and accessories are.l in this game. It's like it's under 10x magnification


Yea, I'm not really a fan of how absurdly detailed Link is compared to the NPCs in castle town, but the more I see it, the less I care. It's just annoying is all.

That said, they compiled some extended and additional footage that was posted in japan.

Is it $69.99 for the disc version?


The disc version is back to $59.88 on both WalMart and Amazon. It looks like the price is going back and forth at random times.
Looks like you'd have to go through Amazon now. Walmart is showing as sold out.
FYI, you can pre-order the physical version on Walmart's website right now for $59.88 with free shipping.

Whether or not you get the hologram version is anybody's guess, but I usually get the game on release date when pre-ordering from them, and it beats paying the full price and having to pay an extra $25 for overnight shipping on Nintendo's website.

re: Soundbar Test Subject?

I second Baraka.

It might not be the best movie in the world, but it's the epitome of putting sound systems to the test.
I don't remember how young I was, but it had to be pretty young, like 5 or 6. I don't remember anything from seeing them when I was a kid other than thinking ewoks were awesome.

Can these people just not turn everything into a political or social statement?


To be fair, if you ever look at these clips, it's always someone from Variety asking about how gay or diverse the show is, and the actors are left having to ad lib some ridiculous response to not offend. It would be nice if the actors would just deflect, but I would guess they're more afraid of being ostracized if they don't give the interviewer the rage bait response they're looking for.

re: Deadwood or The Walking Dead?

Each season of TWD is like every day of Peter Gibbons' life.

Peter: So I was sitting down in my living room today watching The Walking Dead and I realized, ever since I started watching, every single season of this show has been worse than the season before it. So this means that every season I'm seeing, that's the worst season of this show.

Hypnotherapist: What about this season? Is this the worst season of The Walking Dead?

Peter: Yeah.

Hypnotherapist: Whoa, that's fricked up. I'm sorry.
Honestly just the Ocarina of Time remake. There are other games I'm interested in, but this one is top of my list by far. I haven't played it since the N64.

re: Office Space was 20 years ago

Idiocracy was one of the most uncomfortable movies I’ve watched. It was terrifying to me to imagine being Luke Wilson in that situation


quote:

I think it's borderline terrible, but for some reason everyone here adores that movie. The only thing I can think of is that I watched it on TV, so it was edited some. But even watching it that way, it just wasn't very good IMO, and I've always wondered why people seem to hold it up as some sort of classic like Office Space.


quote:

It’s A flawed movie but that’s because it was neutered by the studio. Office space is a better movie in just about every way. However, idiocracy is filled with some hilarious scenes and characters.

I don’t know how you can watch idiocracy and not laugh. The real brilliance of the movie that no one thinks that movie is making fun of them.


I don't think I made it through the movie. I had absurdly high hopes going in because Office Space was one of my favorite movies, and I think my high expectations set up Idiocracy for failure. I, too, got uncomfortable thinking about being in Wilson's shoes in the movie, and Maya Rudolph's character was just annoying.

My one positive takeaway from the movie was a video about it that Judge made, where he said they chose to make everyone where Crocs because they were the stupidest footwear ever invented.

I would recommend them back to back


This. TotK can wait. Majora's Mask is a great game, and I think you appreciate it even more right after ending OoT

I had to consult Youtube when I got stuck


That water temple will get ya
So I only caught a few seconds here and there. Sounded like it was mostly ports of switch games to switch 2? What was actually announced?

I saw a couple of new games... Sports Resort 2 and Xenoblade 4. And then confirmation of OoT remake for this year. Anything else?
quote:

I greatly prefer the Switch 1 pro controller over the 2. I find the handle buttons distracting. And the switch 2 controller plastic feels a little bit less grippy.


Agreed here. The handle buttons you can program are a bit weird when you pick it up, but then you quickly forget about them once the games start. And yeah, it does feel a little more flimsy and less grippy than the original switch pro controller.

That said, I still do prefer either pro controllers to the joy-cons. My only gripe about the Mario Galaxy games on the switch is that I felt like you needed to use the joy-cons, and I never quite got over how annoying they are to use over a regular controller. I wish they had some way to use the wii controllers on the Switch.

Probably a liberal NGO funding them as part of their media propaganda


I thought you were referring to the game's publisher, which was founded by Larry Ellison's daughter. :lol:

The company has backing from one of the world's richest men, so figured that's one of the main components of the 10/10 reviews.
