Californication

Okay, so ya, it has a very specific style that isn't for everyone. My favorite nes games are precision action platformers like Dragon Fighter or Shadow of the Ninja or Darkwing Duck so this is a continuation of that genre for me. The level design is really top of the line and built perfectly for the character. I think I can get to the fifth level without dying.

I'm not sure what you are referring to because the gameplay is perfect for me. This is essentially a precision platformer where you have to memorize everything to run through smoothly. I enjoy going through seeing where I screw up and tweaking my gameplay over time to get better so the game is perfect for me. The precision and memorization remind me of Joe & Mac (Sega), Revenge of Shinobi (minus the attack elements), Toki (with more variety.) Obviously the artwork is beautiful, but the variety of gameplay styles that changes seemlessly is beautiful as well. There is the standard platforming, then the short cart ride level, then you have the elevator, then running down the tower, then running across the forest with dropping obstacles, to running towards the screen away from moose. I mean that took a lot of talent to do and that is just the first two levels.

Isn't Ned Kelly like the Australian Jesse James?

Having deja vu, feel like we've had this conversation before. I would take Darkwing Duck over any Mega Man nes game. The game looks great, level design is good, and the bosses battles are great. I've never heard Aladdin called forgettable. It has top of the line graphics, the magic carpet ride, and genies lamp levels are very memorable and as I said before if the game is to easy, collect the diamonds. I am starting to think part of the problem is you are a really good player.

Mickey Mania on the Sega not the Snes, you are calling that a bad game?

I like it and the 360 version more so. It's on the easier side, but that is a welcome change if you get burned out from more difficult games. In response to Sumiez - Mickey Mania, Magical Quest 1, and Darkwing Duck (nes) are each nearly perfect imo. Maui Mallard maybe a 9. Aladdin (snes/genesis) and Lion King are above average, maybe 8's. Gargoyles (sega) 7. And then there is a bunch of lower to middle tier stuff. I don't know the nes lineup as well, but this is a pretty good track record imo. I agree a little more difficulty is always welcome, but there is a good spread in difficult if you look across the games. Darkwing Duck, Lion King, and Mickey Mania are going to make you work. And Aladdin and Maui Mallard have collectibles and end of level totals for people that want a challenge.

Happy Birthday to me. First Press? One more publisher to add to the list.

I was hoping Cyber Shadow would be my Ninja Gaiden lV. I am on board for GnG Resurrection and Cup Head - they've got to get physicals at some point. A zero ranger or crimson clover would also be dope af.

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but aren't almost all of the largest mass shooting in red states? Nevada, Florida, Texas.

I can't completly agree because there are some issues we're the democrats have enough people that don't want to help the issue so they sink it Healthcare, student loan forgiveness, school privatization, fed appointees, disproportionate tax system, foreign wars all come to mind. But to your point, the Supreme Court seats that the Republicans were able to steal are going to cause damage in nearly every aspect of our lives. They care about big business more than about Americans lives and they are already looking at dismantling things like the EPA.

I agree with the final outcome, but this is not a both sides issue. One party is okay with guns being everywhere that result in children getting murdered.

When people continually give suggestions that have zero percent chance of solving a problem at some point you have to decide they are either acting in bad faith or are really stupid.

Kinda pissed at Gamestop. I ordered Pocky and Rocky ntsc so I can enjoy the game while I wait for the CE. These f@#$ers listed the release date as 5.29.22, then they moved it to 5.31.22. Went to pick it up today and they said it won't be out until 6.24.22. I could have ordered it from Play Asia like a month ago, and on top of that I think Play Asia raised the price.

What's also very dangerous and a more material issue is that people keep talking about newer Republicans as "Trump" Republicans as if they are different from the rest of the party. All of these people move in lock-step and their ideas come from the same place. A republican is a republican is a republican. These people are okay with outlawing abortion and putting people in jail for a miscarriage as well as supplying weapons for children to be murdered. No differentiation is needed for this type of trash.

About half-way through Doom Eternal on Nightmare. Pretty good challenge so far. Got stuck on level 2/3 for over a week. But now that I have the mechanics down, it's speeding up.

The ask was to re-organize what the police were responsible and to use the funds associated with the duties they are no longer responsible to support other organizations who can better perform those duties. Exm. Mental health professionals to responds to people having emotional issues. People were not saying the cops would no longer be responsible for responding to violent crime. I still don't understand why the request does not make sense to people. You wouldn't call the fire department to fix your car. You wouldn't call the doctor to do your taxes. I don't understand what is so confusing about this concept.

47 Republicans block gun control legislation.

It's all about the children, we have to stop abortions! 19 children murdered by a gunman. It's all about the guns, we need our guns, f#ck the kids! There is no consistency to what these soulless ghouls say. It takes a special kind of trash to do this to women and children.

That's good that your mentoring blacks. Too bad most of these shooters are by white, right wing terrorists. Legislation makes the most sense since the Republican party is not going to stop helping transition white youth to terrorism.

We need a stronger community? That sounds like you're blaming everyday people for a bad system. We need men to help the younger generation? That is the same excuse Republicans give for blacks not having the same life outcomes as whites. Too funny. It's amazing how the conservative view is always do nothing. We should also not obfuscate the fact that at least 95% of these shootings are done by right wing terrorists.

Your focusing on one instance. There are mass shootings what everyday? And again there is no clear path to mental Healthcare so it is a useless statement since Republicans are unwilling to sign onto legislation and the democratic leadership is against it. (Catching up on the news for the day and my news sources are making the same points. Wish more other people could recognize the difference between good and bad news sources.)

Sad. He really shined more as he got older. I personally think "Killing them Softly" was one of his best performances.

If you put an average person in a prolonged shity situation, average people can have a lapse of judgment that results in an atrocity. Also, a lot of these shooters are also young, and younger peoples heads tend to still a bit wonky and result in more extreme behavior. The issue is that we are the only country whose politicians have no will to limit access to guns. If America is the greatest at anything, it is being business friendly and that includes trading lives for the profits of gun manufacturers. We know the solution because Australia did it and it worked.

Can I get a Participation Charm?

Considering she brings in a lot of money for the Republicans, I am expecting her to he around for a long time.
