When I got my first job, one of the things I did was buy some of the rented games I loved but never got to own. I believe the first two Ultima games for NES and Bionic Commando were the first three games I eventually bought.

When somebody assassinated him in Ultima Online because he forgot to put his invincibility flag up, its one of the funniest things I've seen in online gaming. But yeah I would like to see a more modern take on Ultima, not just the isometric view. Renting the NES games is still one of my fond...

That's a good one. Coincidentally I was just thinking about that the other day. Then it popped up on a YT short for no reason at all. Random algorithm. Must be a sign.

If they're having this much trouble with the PS5, I can't imagine how horrid the Steam port is gonna be. I might wanna wait a few months to a year after it comes out on Steam to play it.

Yeah I think dubs are great for video games, but for films like these, voiceovers ruin the weight of the characters. Doesn't matter how good the voice actors are, it kills submersion. Like I can't watch Red Cliff with dubs.

"Jaws" is a good comparison. People shouldn't go into it expecting your typical monster movie. A lot of time is spent building the human characters, which actually works because Godzilla is not their buddy this time around. He is a menace. His atomic breath is particularly nasty. I kinda...

I think it looks/sounds better than XVI, at least in terms of graphics, setting, and gameplay.

Yeah this is my point of contention with the whole thing. Especially if this has been going on since the 30's. That's a lot of people over the generations to cover something so big, more so when you start factoring in all the countries that would have to know about it. It would not just be...

Pretty much what I expected. Grusch said some things that were eye-opening. Of course no evidence, but I imagine all the good stuff would be behind closed-door hearings, at least for a while. Hopefully they will continue to pursue this and not get bored of the topic. Not a fan of AOC, but I...

Transformers: Rise of the Beasts - As the saying goes, I went in with no expectations and was still disappointed. Probably tied with the Last Knight for the worst Transformers movie. It amazes me how they keep having these McGuffin devices come to earth by pure coincidence. Outland (1981) -...

Very hesitant about this with people like Corbell, Burchett, Luna, and Elizondo involved. Graves and Fravor seem legit, but I don't see what they're gonna tell that they've not told already. So I don't expect much from these hearings, unless Grusch drops some bombshells. Hopefully, at the...

I go back and forth on this issue. Aside from no hard proof, I do have a hard time beleving that all these governments have been involved in this for so many years, and managed to keep it a secret. As the saying goes, the more people you have involved in a conspiracy, the less likely that...

Instead of shooting it down, they need to try and retrieve it so they can figure out what it is China is trying to collect, and what information they've collected already. Sure satellites can pick up lots of things, but there are things they can't pick up that a balloon in closer proximity can.

"Lips Like Sugar" Thought it was from U2 when I first heard it. Turns out it was Echo and the Bunnymen.

Rollercoaster Tycoon used to be that game for me
