  1. Game boy which was first released in 1996, manufactured by Nintendo was my first ever experience with an hand held video game which was gifted to me in the early 2000. I got so addicted to the game series that I virtually purchased almost all the games from Tetris to super Mario land and even my favourite metroid II: the return of Samus . though the games are not still made but it is worth it that we appreciate this gaming console that made our childhood fun.

  2. The only Ace Combat I've played is Assault Horizons and it was cool. It was a really gritty and fun game that I would recommend. Here's Angry Joe's review to give a better idea. I t may not have been the most realistic flight sim in the world and certainly not the most realistic flight sim in the Ace Combat series, but that's what made it a great game to me. Adding excitement and fun at the cost of realism I think is better philosophy. @Reality vs Adventure. That's really cool about your grandfather. I'm somehow surprised to find the F-22 was that at old and I wasn't aware they had been retired. A quick google revealed that the powers that be deemed the planes too expensive to make combat ready in the modern world, so I guess that's that. A shame, but I suppose you can't run a military on nostalgia.

  3. Maybe you're right about what has been the strategy of America and Biden but all the kudos goes to Ukraine for being able to still survive till date.

  4. I have a pocket as well. Actually I have every edition of Game Boy that they made. These days I tend to play on my GBASP as opposed to any of the others. It's more compact and it's rechargeable instead of having to use batteries. So it's just a hell of a lot more convenient. Also it is backlit where the others aren't.

  6. Dollar Tree and Dollar General tend to sell their stuff at or around $1. Dollar Tree sticks to that much more than Dollar General. But at those two stores you can get stuff a lot cheaper than you can get it at places like Walmart or Target. I enjoy shopping at them simply because their stuff sells for so much less. You aren't going to find a pack of 10 pens for $1 anywhere else. And if 7 of them don't work for shit, you really haven't lost much of anything because 3 still do their job. Also if I remember right, @kingpotato is Jamaican.

  8. Once again I have to say that this is a NATO effort to hit Russia financially so as to try and prevent a world war. Are you in such a rush for the world to jump into war? Not jumping into conflict is not weak or lazy. Ukraine has shown great resilience, so we have to see Putin's next move. Biden isn't here to try and show off might. As you can see, the strong man approach like Putin becomes an embarrassment. Unfortunately, that embarrassment becomes fuel for even madder endeavors.

  9. Okay let me clarify then, Dollar stores are usually physical stores in the US were they usually sell cheap stuff, not at the same level as walmart or amazon. As you can tell by the name the price of the items here are around 1 US dollar. I believe most dollar stores do have online shopping but people usually buy at the store rather than online. Again what they sell here is usually cheap stuff so its not exactly a place to buy groceries.

  10. I'm 36 and haven't quit yet. I'm not saying my situation can't change be cause it can, but I doesn't seem likely to happen anytime soon. I've kind of settled into a life that fits gaming better than other hobbies might.

    I mean sometimes is fun to see a clip of a funny moment on facebook, but there is a huge difference between watching a 2 minute clip and actually sitting on my ass for an hour watching somebody else play a game that I already own. Not only that I cannot understand how in the world there are idiots who actually pay for this shit like on twitch or facebook, and even more idiots that send money to big titty girls on live stream, like wtf dudes , like there is a lot of free porn on the internet, why even waste your time and money on this. And to make matters worse there a lot of gaming websites that make entire articles about streamers every single day and its not even meaningful stuff, just random shit, if a streamer farts they make a whole article about it.

    Playing my Final Fantasy VII Remake on my ps4 still exploring the FF7R EPISODE INTERmission featuring Yuffie as the main character, which is an awesome new adventure that was added to the final fantasy game world and it never gets old for me since it's release in 2020.

  16. The big question what if? If they stayed together surely another giant electronics company would have stepped up, maybe the 3do would have succeeded because it had some interesting ideas and games for the time, they had ea and a few other studios behind the project aswell. Panasonic/sanyo and goldstar were also on board and those weren't exactly small companies either so it probably should have done better then it did, if only the price was cheaper for the system. Offcourse this is just talking out of my ass i'm doing and is irrelevant. You do have to realise the Phillips cd-i was originally designed to be a multimedia platform not a gaming machine, it's only later phillips started focussing on games because people wanted games for it instead of interactive/educational/video cd software. The machine was quit revolutionairy at the time because it could run the same stuff a computer could but on cd-rom technology, at the time most of the of computers just had floppy disk drives because cd-rom were just too expensive. Offcourse the system failed because of it's high price tag. On a funny note one of my teachers in elementary school, used his cd-i in class to teach us stuff like i remember getting french with the cd-i at one point and you know it worked as a kid we never had seen anything like it and were generally exited about getting french. He also believed the cd-i would replace computers alltogheter because they were big and bulky and the cd-i was a cheaper alternative.

  17. You make it sound like it's a bad thing, it's not something i can do much about either. My parents were always hard working and were quite busy with their careers and they always told me they diden't have the time to have more children offcourse now they admit they should have had atleast had one more child. After my dad retired we became very close because he actually started taking an interest in what i was doing, he went with me on hikes atleast once a week and whatnot he's getting older so those really long hikes he can't do anymore but we genuily do stuff together now , something we never did when i was a kid because they were always busy. I never felt lonely as a kid i spent a lot of time with grandparents and my 2 nieces were also there most of the time so we always played together, when i turned 12 my parents sent me to a Boarding school where i stayed until i graduated from said school, so i was always together of kids my age from morning till it was bedtime. But it's true being alone as a kid has shaped me somewhat, while i'm a pretty social guy i like being on my own too, like i don't have a problem when i don't see anybody for a few days as i like doing my own thing and not having to give a fuck about what somebody else think if you know what i mean.

  19. Most money involved into a single transaction was 4k in euro money for a complete cib japanese sega game gear collection all 196 games probably 8-9 years ago, now with the way prices are going trough the roof that was one hell of a deal i got. Facturing in i only had to pay for postage once instead of maybe 50-60 times if i was to buy them seperatly and since it came from a french collector i diden't have to pay any import taxes either.

  21. Most people that have been playing the game for a while haven't been able to unlock them all, so that shouldn't bother you at for now.

  22. Exactly. I think that it would work more by taking a game from one's childhood that one never got to play and play it now. One can understand it better than doing it the way round.

  23. Under the terms of the Antarctic Treaty the whole continent is designated a nature and scientific reserve. There is no government and no nation is allowed to own any land there. There are no military bases or permanent human population.

  24. If you're the world power, it doesn't mean you'll attack any country at all time when you feel or think that the country have gone wrong. United States of America follow ethics, they wouldn't rush it immediately as the war goes on, they have other ways to stop the war, and to counter Russia if they want.

  25. I do hope so because it will be fun to try out the different legends and their abilities. Hopefully it's not something that will take a very long time because I noticed that my legend tokens take a very, very long time to build up. So it's going to take me an eternity to unlock them all at this rate

  26. Both our gas came from dinosaurs, I don't know why the price is different. Are you saying your dinosaurs were better than ours? 😀

  27. Unfortunately, I have to agree with you on that. There is a high probability that they will end things with RDR2. The only direction they could possibly go is a prequel to RDR2 showing how the gang formed. Or try to go on with Jack. But considering that he would have been a wild west outlaw in the 1910's to 1920's, that just couldn't work. But if they go the route with a prequel, the series would end with it. They kinda shot themselves in the foot with the series. There's virtually nowhere to go with it except a prequel t the prequel. And after that, there's nowhere at all to go, unless it's a spin off focusing on one specific character. Maybe focus on Tilly and her life. Or possibly Reverend Swanson. But I don't think spinoffs like that would sell.

  28. I was thinking the same thing. I don't think our minds will see something as being more extraordinary than some other game. And I don't think we will take in the proper meanings of what we would today. You could take some dystopian game today and play as a kid, but not understand exactly who the villain is. Like an evil corporation, a kid would ask who is the bad guy? What is a corporation? Not understanding that having total control over people is wrong.

    While i can understand watching along when you are in the same room when somebody is playing. I never really understood the appeal to watch a live stream of a dude/woman i don't know, like why i would watch somebody else play a videogame when i can play said game myself.

  31. There's also a lot of people who were never given a chance in life. We were put down and kept down. No one wanted us around, and everyone passed us over. They gave no consideration for us. We were kept in a locked closet, and rarely allowed out. We were held back at every opportunity. Constant abuse from birth (physical, verbal, emotional, mental, all of the above in my case), keeps a person down. I wasn't given any kind of opportunity. I was the worlds whipping child. The only thing that has changed since then is my age. Video games, have offered me a release from the world, but not really helped the depression. It returns as soon as I return.
