    https://www.gamesindustry.biz/atari-acquires-atariage They also bought Mobygames last year, meaning two of the oldest and most precious vintage game resources are in the hands of... whatever the hell Atari is these days. This must be why they firesaled out all of their bootleg games recently. AFAIK AtariAge is the oldest and biggest vintage game forum on the internet (although I could be wrong). Unless they were in dire financial straits, I can't imagine this is a good thing.

    History will remember you for documenting all the collector bullshit for the most important system ever made Dave We know Mike Etler's name for making a nice list and you're out here releasing volumes.

    I always read A manual (PDF, etc.), not always my physical copy if it’s not in a jewel case or something. I’ve been gotcha’d too many times with some obscure missing info I would’ve got from the manual.

    New hot T-Pac content and I'm only the third subscriber, wtf

    Apparently two of youse guys have beat Aidyn Chronicles which is how I know I’m on the website for true hardcore gamers. Can you imagine buying Aidyn Chronicles as your first console RPG as a kid after seeing FF2, FF3, Lunar, FF7, and Chrono Cross at your friends’ houses and probably around the time I was playing Neverwinter Nights? Because I can. Tbf my memories are 20 years old at this point. It’s a poignant Hollywood Video bargain bin regret!

    I have an ancient X-Arcade trackball (smaller than the tankstick, PS/2 interface!) and it actually feels good. Pretty nice design for the whole thing too. I had a MAME cabinet with a U-Track that felt worse.

    I can't imagine slogging through Aidyn Chronicles, but Blast Corps would be a lot of fun. So no matter how hard it is I don't think 100% in Blast Corps would be the worst N64 game to beat.

    What’s up dude. I like old video games.

    I know nothing about Xbox 360 but bought a copy of Autobahn Polizei once because it seemed cool and uncommon. Like most of the games discussed, there’s still a bunch available or sold, but it seems maybe in the same range? I am much better versed in Xbox and I tend to say there are no truly rare regular black label Xbox games, which could be the same case for 360 beyond NBA Elite 11

    I didn't realize how popular Christine was. I can't remember a conversation I've ever had with anyone about it. The Thing is obviously my tops followed by Big Trouble in Little China. Action movies aren't my favorite genre so I had low expectations going in but that movie is delightful.

    Post Void. It's an FPS roguelike that's literally 5 minutes long. It's fantastic. The people who complain that adults need easy modes to respect their time are wrong. Games need skip-the-easy modes that lets you play only the most engaging content and not waste my precious adult time with bloated BS to justify some pricetag. I wish more games had the balls to be this short and focused. It's like if Robotron was an FPS.

    Yes, we don’t know what we’re doing either

    I’m too busy thinking about werewolf usually

    I never read Getting Things Done but this is one thing I picked up from my wife I think. If anything would take less than 2 minutes, you have to do it now. It prevents little stuff from building up.

    Productivity tools are a waste of time. You dive into Notion or Obsidian, then you're spending hours making your productivity tool more productive and juicing every last gram of potential productivity gains!, rather than actually just doing the stuff you're supposed to be doing. I have a single text document with Today, Soon, and Someday headings that I throw all of those kinds of things into. Never had a better system.

    I mean sure I guess you could release Panzer Dragoon Saga on the moon but no one in the real world is going to care.

    A port of a Saturn game?? But then it would lose all of its exclusive mystique.

    Oh I'm in. I was only tagged twice, so I forgot twice. Gotta tag me like 4 times.

    7/10, it is the good version of Superman 64.

    That can't be true Atari is TRUE CLASSIC gaming. Atari will always matter. It's the base that all other games are built off of. Even kids growing up today are going to look back and remember Atari. Oh sorry you're talking about NES? That can't be true, NES is TRUE CLASSIC gaming. NES will always matter. It's the base that all other games are built off. Even kids growing up today are going to look back and remember NES. Atari is garbage boomer shit btw.

    Complete, less ambiguous. CIB stands for “Cintellivision IamicoNFTcard inBox”.

    This post was just a trick to get people to think of more walking on ceiling NES games, thanks.
  24. DefaultGen
    9, I dunno what more you'd want from an NES platformer. You can walk on the ceiling. Only 4 (??) NES games let you do that? Metal Storm, MC Kids, Battle of Olympus, and Little Samson, the four ideal video games.

    I got taken by friends to The Avengers because it was a huge deal when it came out. Just a big dumb superhero movie with an over the top CG dragon fight at the end. Then my wife watches them and wanted to see Shang Chi. Just a big dumb superhero movie with an over the top CG dragon fight at the end. I rode the Guardians of the Galaxy roller coaster at Disney World. That was pretty rad. I'm going to change my vote to that.
