  1. Good evening everyone! Hopefully your Monday wasn't too bad, I only have one more day of work then I'm off for five before I start my new position. I'm leaving work early tomorrow too, and will be saying my goodbyes to everyone. I already had one coworker tell me that he was going to miss me today. Makes me wonder if he's going to come into work tomorrow or not.
  2. Honestly I would eat it every day now despite it not being that healthy. If money wasn't an issue, I'd get different things from different places so I wouldn't get tired of having the same thing over and over again.
  3. I had no clue they were bringing back Carmen Sandiego! I loved watching the show back in the day, but I'll admit I never played any of the games. My wife enjoyed playing a few of the games in the series as a kid, I'll tell her about this game I think she would enjoy it!
  4. I'm currently using a Motorola Moto G 5G 2024. I got it last month and I love it! I made the switch back to Android from iOS and didn't have a lot of money so I looked at more affordable phones and lots of people said this phone was good. The camera isn't as good as the camera on my iPhone XR, but that doesn't bother me.
  5. I'll admit I haven't really cleaned my PS5 since I got it. I did dust off the vents on the top of the console since I seen dust. I need to tear it down and clean it out with compressed air. Likewise I need to do the same thing to my computer. It's best to tear down the whole console/tower and dust out the components. On PCs be sure to replace the thermal paste, and on older consoles too. Newer ones like the PS5 use liquid metal to keep the chips cool.
  6. I prefer to play video games in the evening. I have more time to do this, plus I like to try and wake up before I dive right into playing a game. When I was a kid I played games as soon as I woke up during the summertime. There were times where I would play a game right before school too.

    Next time I get paid, I'm going to get a copy of this game. I've heard so many good things about it and after watching the state of play and seeing the trailer for the new DLC, it really peaked my interest. Plus Spyro the Dragon makes a cameo appearance in the game too, which is cool since he was my favorite Playstation 1 mascot.
  8. I think both Pokemon and Palworld have some great creature designs. Also Final Fantasy has good creature designs too, the Moogles and Chocobos are my favorite creatures in Final Fantasy. Some Digimon look cool too, but then there are questionable designs for both Pokemon and Digimon. xD
  9. I don't think it's violent at all. Cpvr summed it up pretty well, it's a genre that started as a way to express how the artists felt at the time. Over time it's gone a different direction, but it's not violent. There's many different artists who rap about different things so it's not all about drugs and women. The media just portrays the genre as degenerate because the media is racist.
  10. I would just end up shaving the rest of my hair off if I went bald. However, I don't really have to worry about this since all the guys in my family have a full head of hair. My dad's hair has thinned out recently though but he's in his 60's now.
  11. I find it amusing that Pocketpair's answer to the lawsuit is to release the game on the PS5. I'm not a fan of Nintendo as a company, but honestly I'm surprised they haven't tried suing Pocketpair sooner. There's models of the pals that look eerily similar to Pokemon designs, but I know this isn't the reason why they're going after Pocketpair, it's the fact that you capture pals in balls and Nintendo apparently claims they patented the "use balls to capture creatures" idea. I hope Pocketpair wins, but it's going to be tough since Nintendo has so much money.
  12. Sonic was the first video game I ever played, so I just fell in love with platformers from day one. Also Pokemon made me really appreciate turned based RPGs, and they're my second favorite genre of video games. It's fun playing a platformer and collecting goodies along the way, plus just jumping and progressing in a platformer is fun.
  13. I'm not a fan of sports games, real time strategy games, point and click games and storybook games like Ace Attorney. I never been a fan of sports in general, however even though I don't care for the genre there's a few sports titles on the Sega Genesis I actually don't mind playing. Real time strategy games bore me because you only click on the screen to place your troops and tell them where to go, this is also why I don't like storybook and point and click games there's not much interaction IMO.
  14. I know why they're quite popular, so many people grew up on the NES and started with Mario. I don't think they're over hyped, but I don't think they're as good as Sonic. I know that's quite a unpopular opinion, but it's mine. Sonic is just a cooler character and his games are just better overall. I know there's some bad games in the series, but the good games outweigh the bad and I think Sonic gets too much of a bad rep from critics.
  15. I drink at least two a day, never diet soda since I don't care for the taste. My favorite is Mountain Dew since there's so many flavors I can choose from, with my favorite being Typhoon. It's a shame it's no longer available though. As for the current flavors Voltage is my favorite.
  16. It's gotta be either the Shredder from Turok 2 or the Cerebral Processor from Turok 3. The shredder is a cool upgrade for the shotgun that shoots out a laser beam that can bounce and hit multiple enemies. The Cerebral Processor allows you to control a enemy for a few seconds until they explode.
  17. Absolutely not, it's too much money! If my current PS5 kicks the bucket I'll just get one of the slim models. The unit itself is already $700, but if you want a disc drive and a stand you're looking at $810 and that's before taxes. I think Sony is charging too much for the new system, plus I'm not really that much of a stickler for graphics in games so I don't need to upgrade to enjoy the games I have because I look at gameplay, story and music to be the top three things to make a game enjoyable graphics don't matter to me.
  18. I used to play Mafia Wars back in the day. I made a lot of friends on Facebook playing that game too! I still need to purge them though, I never got around to removing them after the game was removed. My wife and her mom would play Farmville all the time.
  19. The 16 bit era hands down is my favorite era of gaming. This was when platformers were the most popular genre of gaming, and there were so many different Sonic clones trying to beat the blue blur but none of them even got close! Plus the awesome turned based RPGs like Final Fantasy 5 and 6 were out, plus Earthbound.
  20. Back in the late 00's and early 10's there was a point in time where you could become friends with people on Youtube! I honestly forgot about that until I was reading very old emails I had left in my inbox. I had quite a few people add me as their friend years ago, this was when Youtube was more like your typical social media platform where you could send messages to people and customize your channel to your liking too. I wonder if those people eventually would become subscribers of your channel once they removed that feature. Did you use Youtube during this time period and did you have friends too?
  21. So how many jobs have you worked in your lifetime? I've currently worked at three places, but I'm about to start a new job on October 7th. It was a bit hard to put in my two weeks at my current job but I just needed to get out of the factory environment since it can get quite hot at my current job. Plus I didn't really feel like I was really appreciated, now that I'm about to leave that's changed. :V The two jobs I had before my current was in retail, I worked at a grocery store and Walmart. I've been at my current job for over five years but it was time to move on. I'll be working at a bank soon.
  22. I'll definitely be getting this collection! I've been meaning to play the Lunar games, I own two of them currently but haven't had a chance to start going through my huge backlog of games. I know I could emulate the originals, but I'd enjoy getting trophies or achievements. (I'm still not sure which platform I want to get it on.)
  23. I believe money does truly make us happy. Without it you can't survive unless you live remotely and know how to hunt for your food. It'd be nice to not have to work for 40 hours to make a living, I watch train hoppers on Youtube and they're living life to the fullest IMO since they get to travel the country for free and live free. But they still need to earn some money in order to keep living that lifestyle.
  24. Either the Genesis or Master System. I know the inner workings of the Master System more than the Genesis. I mod the 8-bit Sonic games on the Master System, but to be honest with you I do better modifying existing code rather than writing code from scratch. Fun thing is about the Master System, there is a C compiler so you don't have to write your code in z80 assembler if you don't want to!
  25. My best friend growing up would rage at video games. I do too unfortunately, and I feel like I learned it from him. Anyways back then I would just look at him in disbelief, I even witnessed him breaking a game in front of me because he got mad at it. His mom came in and told me to go home because he got in trouble for breaking his copy of Street Fighter Championship Edition on the Genesis. I never broke a game nor console before, I almost did break a controller when I was a kid. These days I don't throw things or try to break things when I lose at a game, I will vocally express how I feel and maybe rage quit but that's it.
