| Topic | What's worse; a game that is Too Easy or Too Hard? |
| xlr_big-coop 10/29/25 4:21:03 PM #94 | If a game is too easy I simply lose interest and drop it. Part of why I hate the Mario & Luigi series, nothing but endless tutorials --- :) |
| Topic | Do you like this movie: Shaun of the Dead |
| xlr_big-coop 10/28/25 4:52:52 PM #20 | Yes, it's a fantastic movie although I prefer Hot Fuzz. --- :) |
| Topic | If you could send a message to your younger self to not watch/read Harry Potter |
| xlr_big-coop 10/27/25 10:27:11 PM #52 | No but I'd love to send myself one to drop pokemon right after bw2 --- :) |
| Topic | Trump joins GameStop's 'End of Console Wars' celebration |
| xlr_big-coop 10/27/25 12:32:35 PM #11 | Unsuprised_Pika posted... "I ended the war between the great nations of Sony and Microsoft. I think that makes 8 wars I have ended. They didn't give me a nobel prize and I didn't ask but they absolutely should have. Therefore I have to no choice but to put 200% tariffs on the AMERICA HATING COMMUNIST nation of Norway! Thank you for your attention to this matter."LMAO --- :) |
| Topic | I wish the creator of My Hero Academia had stuck to the original idea SPOILERS |
| xlr_big-coop 10/24/25 6:26:30 PM #39 | I'd have preferred that premise as well but the Japanese love their tropes, they love self inserting and as you can see from most isekai, the more op the better. --- :) |
| Topic | The new Katamari game is pretty good |
| xlr_big-coop 10/24/25 6:21:42 PM #20 | Played the first mission last night and the king of all cosmos had me laughing at his silliness immediately. Glad to see the series back --- :) |
| Topic | Favorite type of educational content? |
| xlr_big-coop 10/24/25 6:19:49 PM #15 | I pursued aerospace engineering because of all the NASA shows on Discovery channel. I knew more than my own professors on the subject by middle school --- :) |
| Topic | Has AI finally saved da foreveralone epidemic |
| xlr_big-coop 10/24/25 6:18:59 PM #56 | Watched a video on "my bf is ai" subreddit and I legit lost a ton of hope for the world --- :) |
| Topic | Can u tell the diff between 30 FPS and 60 FPS? |
| xlr_big-coop 10/23/25 8:42:05 PM #156 | Yes I can tell when fps leave 30 and approach 60. Let's say you ser a game to 40 fps, even that has a different feel. My rig usually can hit 120 so I'm used to that but I definitely can perceive the difference in framerate --- :) |
| Topic | japanese government calls out sora 2 AI for copyright infringement |
| xlr_big-coop 10/23/25 7:59:52 PM #7 | Eh, most of it is parody anyway. They can cry when people charge for AI which is sadly what most companies want --- :) |
| Topic | Google Gemini is extremely useful for project-based work |
| xlr_big-coop 10/23/25 7:58:35 PM #8 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] That actually sounds pretty neat, thanks for sharing --- :) |
| Topic | Why does Gen Z have to be different about everything |
| xlr_big-coop 10/23/25 7:57:33 PM #107 | SwayM posted... Instead of saying someone is funny they say theyre so unseriousTheir language is getting fucked over by censors. That's why we get dumbass shit like unaliving and whatnot --- :) |
| Topic | Remember how Toph grew up and became a cop? |
| xlr_big-coop 10/23/25 7:56:09 PM #33 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] I hate that sometimes I feel like rewatching it but every season has a bunch of stuff that stops me from doing so. --- :) |
| Topic | Do you like this movie: WALL-E |
| xlr_big-coop 10/19/25 10:50:06 PM #24 | Absolutely, one of Disney's last good movies. So glad I gave it a chance and watched at a theater, such an amazing experience. --- :) |
| Topic | Do you like this game: Pokemon Legends: Arceus |
| xlr_big-coop 10/14/25 7:22:48 PM #13 | No. It's hideous graphically, NPCs are lifeless, it takes monster catching to an absurd extreme. Also not a fan of the gameplay loop and designs for most mons like palkia and dialga. --- :) |
| Topic | This might be the dumbest thing I've ever seen... *PLZA new mega evo spoilers* |
| xlr_big-coop 10/14/25 7:20:06 PM #28 | Man I really don't like any of the new mega evolutions. Most were made solely for the memes or are outright a downgrade from the original design --- :) |
| Topic | Hoodies - Zip up or pullover? |
| xlr_big-coop 10/14/25 7:18:34 PM #34 | Pullover. I had beloved hoodies fail on me due to the zipper. The pullover ones are still comfy a decade + later --- :) |
| Topic | RUMOR: MS exiting the hardware market; more retailers pulling Xbox from shelves |
| xlr_big-coop 10/04/25 6:55:26 PM #22 | Deteled posted... So does that mean I can get a cheap Xbox??This. You'd think that if they're pulling out they'd have massive fire sales --- :) |
| Topic | Pokemon Scarlet/Violet Shiny Koraidon & Miraidon distribution event |
| xlr_big-coop 10/04/25 6:53:09 PM #171 | Puglia77 posted... GameStop restocked codes as of 20 minutes ago. Have been hearing comments saying stores don't have them yet so they're probably finding out about it too. Codes might be in the next shipment or something. I'm outside anyway so I'n headed to my local GameStop to check. Or you can call them in advance.Thanks, managed to get my code because of you. I would have spent my weekend doing something else, by the time I'd have found out it's have been too late. --- :) |
| Topic | Are you gonna get Pokemon Legends: Z-A? |
| xlr_big-coop 10/04/25 4:39:02 PM #23 | Nah, the battles look absolutely lame and the real time system is of no interest to me as well. Coupled with the game costing $70 + dlc + having to pay for online to get stones AND being unable to transfer pokemon from it make it an easy skip --- :) |
| Topic | It's crazy how much hate there is for Rosemary in Metal Gear Solid 2 (spoilers) |
| xlr_big-coop 10/03/25 7:19:19 PM #11 | Well she is quite a bitch in the game, legit wondered why Raiden cared by the end once everything was said and done --- :) |
| Topic | Do you like this game: Persona 4 |
| xlr_big-coop 10/03/25 4:51:00 PM #26 | Yeah but I prefer 3 and 5 --- :) |
| Topic | Microsoft jacks the price of Game Pass Ultimate up to $30 a month |
| xlr_big-coop 10/02/25 3:09:50 AM #143 | As if the value was there to begin with, they dropped the ball on releases this gen. It'd be one thing if they at least gave you access to their entire backlog up until gen 6 but as is I wouldn't ever pay for their crap. --- :) |
| Topic | Would you watch a 6-hour-long retrospective on the Metroid series? |
| xlr_big-coop 10/02/25 3:04:56 AM #13 | Absolutely not, not even on topics I love. Partly because most video essays are just narrated playthroughs, they feel like a summary, something meant for new players rather than a proper breakdown of themes or perhaps a new way of interpreting the lore. I could just replay the game instead. --- :) |
| Topic | Mario Kart World just got further fixes. |
| xlr_big-coop 09/24/25 9:23:00 PM #27 | Hilarious how they still won't bend the knee and just give us the option to choose 3 laps. Increased chances? WTF does that even mean. Nintendo can be so backwards sometimes --- :) |
| Topic | The last few pokemon games have been unbelievably ugly to look at. |
| xlr_big-coop 09/22/25 7:00:07 PM #18 | Yeah honestly BW2 were the last legitimately fun and full of soul games. Never liked how xy and on ruined their cries and toned their color down so damn much. Then every Gen was compromised in one way or another: gen 6 never got Z because they rushed SM, gen 7 got "sequels" that instead of expanding their base games like BW2 felt like weird retellings, gen 8 brought dexit and two lame/babies remakes of KANTOOOO, then gen 9 while legitimately fun was so damn broken, slow AND ugly to look at I don't think I'll ever stop being a fan, but I will stop buying their games altogether. --- :) |
| Topic | Marvel TV shows that are worth watching |
| xlr_big-coop 09/18/25 10:33:02 PM #18 | Only the Netflix seasons of daredevil. Everything else is literally trash. --- :) |
| Topic | Do you like this movie: Spectre |
| xlr_big-coop 09/18/25 10:32:06 PM #19 | Daniel Craig doesn't have a single good James Bond movie under his name. --- :) |
| Topic | Pokemon Scarlet/Violet Shiny Chi-Yu distribution event |
| xlr_big-coop 09/18/25 8:14:43 PM #7 | Oh damn thanks for the update, I was wondering when it'd go live --- :) |
| Topic | Do you have hope? |
| xlr_big-coop 09/18/25 8:12:52 PM #68 | Yes, absolutely. More so than I felt for over 10 years --- :) |
| Topic | Metroid Prime 4 is ruined, isn't it? |
| xlr_big-coop 09/12/25 1:52:35 PM #23 | Man the whole thing surrounding the bike was stupid, what the fuck were they thinking? That shit doesn't belong in Metroid. --- :) |
| Topic | Do you like this game: Super Mario Sunshine |
| xlr_big-coop 09/11/25 7:59:52 PM #20 | Absolutely. Loved the gameplay mechanics, setting and OST. Liked it more than all Mario's post galaxy 2. --- :) |
| Topic | Kamala Harris says Biden's decision to run again was "recklessness" |
| xlr_big-coop 09/10/25 1:36:33 PM #66 | CastletonSnob1 posted... Democrats not even considering the possibility of an 80+ year old man not being up for the job of POTUS, and having backup candidates goes beyond "recklessness", and is flat-out political malpractice. --- :) |
| Topic | Nintendo's new 'summon and fight' patent could threaten hundreds of video games |
| xlr_big-coop 09/10/25 1:35:20 PM #97 | Wish the case was resolved quickly and Nintendo lost already. Hate how litigious they've become --- :) |
| Topic | Do you like this game: Paper Mario |
| xlr_big-coop 09/09/25 3:43:05 PM #6 | The first one is imo the best.ove the whimsical aesthetic and how comfy it was --- :) |
| Topic | Israel hatches plan to treat Greta as a terrorist. |
| xlr_big-coop 09/09/25 3:39:51 PM #51 | Fucking LMAO, reality does indeed surpass fiction --- :) |
| Topic | What game should be adapted to amazon of HBO max next? |
| xlr_big-coop 09/09/25 12:36:09 PM #44 | Honestly, none. Not a fan of the modern adaptations any game has received --- :) |
| Topic | Who do you think of first when you hear the name Brock? |
| xlr_big-coop 09/08/25 11:36:41 AM #33 | Brock Samson from the venture bros --- :) |
| Topic | dragon ball needs a full on ground up reboot |
| xlr_big-coop 09/06/25 1:25:47 AM #22 | AgentCoulson posted... Do you mean a new version of Goku's tale or a new protagonist set in the Dragon Ball universe?This would have been better than whatever super tried to do. Even the animation looks bad now, nothing really is salvageable imo --- :) |
| Topic | Pokemon Scarlet/Violet Shiny Ting-Lu distribution event |
| xlr_big-coop 09/05/25 5:28:15 PM #27 | Can you claim him even if you didn't battle him? --- :) |
| Topic | APPARENTLY Jujutsu Kaisen sequel coming soon...like dis sunday *spoilers* |
| xlr_big-coop 09/05/25 5:26:12 PM #12 | Nah, the concept seems really dumb and out of nowhere. --- :) |
| Topic | Are you gonna get Borderlands 4? |
| xlr_big-coop 09/05/25 5:25:36 PM #52 | Nah, the ending of bl2 made me hyped for an intergalactic vault hunting adventure, but 3 threw that out of the window to waste time with the calipsos. Then you kill them and they go "ok, galactic adventure, for reals now :D". I MIGHT get it in a year when the goty edition sells under $50 --- :) |
| Topic | I think population decline is a good thing |
| xlr_big-coop 09/04/25 2:44:50 PM #49 | viewmaster_pi posted... ok jrpg villain --- :) |
| Topic | Android is removing sideloading for the sake of "security". |
| xlr_big-coop 09/03/25 9:28:59 PM #52 | feraldrgn posted... Weird, the whole point was that the user was responsible for if their device became infected due to installing stuff outside of the Google store. --- :) |
| Topic | PS5 to get SSD reduction from 1TB to 825GB, same price. |
| xlr_big-coop 09/03/25 9:27:12 PM #19 | dotsdfe posted... This being the first generation where consoles are just actively getting worse and more expensive over time really fucking sucks. Generally they get slight improvements over time and gradually drop in price.And with how few exclusives they have one might as well skip the entire console generation and get a mid PC instead --- :) |
| Topic | Is Dragon Age: The Veilguard worth downloading from gamepass? |
| xlr_big-coop 09/03/25 9:24:10 PM #6 | Absolutely not, feels like the dialogue was written by millennial redditors. It all feels like the cringiest office banter ever. --- :) |
| Topic | Does anyone here play MLB The Show '25? |
| xlr_big-coop 09/03/25 9:21:17 PM #2 | I play RTTS only and the game is pretty fun, it's the best it's been for a good 5 years. Never dabbed on the other modes but I'm sure you could find a crowd either here or reddit for a game or two. --- :) |
| Topic | should...large people...have to buy 2 seats? On Airplanes : Southwest doing it |
| xlr_big-coop 08/30/25 5:16:06 PM #91 | I'd say so, but they could end up selling the second seat at a discount at the very least. I remember once I sat next to a massive dude and he could barely close his legs because he kept bumping mine. I could tell he was annoyed about it but it does feel like even regular people struggle in a regular seat due to airlines being cheap. --- :) |
| Topic | Someone ported Morrowind to Elden Ring |
| xlr_big-coop 08/30/25 4:58:18 PM #8 | Well damn, that actually looks pretty darn good! Thanks for sharing --- :) |
| Topic | Do you like this game: Pokemon Sword/Shield |
| xlr_big-coop 08/28/25 5:51:13 PM #24 | No, not at all. Its legacy will forever be tied to dexit --- :) |
