Meanwhile in America if someone busts their ass to learn English and works hard to accept American values we eventually start to accept them as true Americans. You are saying that Americans automatically consider all black people foreigners for life? Do we do the same with all people of Spanish origin? In Japan the country is 98.5% Japanese, if you are a black man living in that country you are a COMPLETE oddity no matter how long you live there. Meanwhile in America even in some of the whitest states people still run into people of other ethnicity's on occasion. --- BF ID: Birck #1559845599 Leads: Elaina, Bjorn+Linlin, Tsovinar |
Topic | Is Japan Racist? |
Monopoman 12/18/18 1:49:08 PM #65 | There is one way where almost all of Japan is pretty damn racist against foreigners. The fact is no matter how much you try to assimilate into their country, and spend time learning the in's and out of being a Japanese person they will never accept you as one of their own. You could spend 30 years in the country, and spend countless hours pursuing citizenship, learning to speak and read Japanese, and all go into great depth to understand their culture. They won't care about all that and still consider you Gajin until the day you die. Meanwhile in America if someone busts their ass to learn English and works hard to accept American values we eventually start to accept them as true Americans. --- BF ID: Birck #1559845599 Leads: Elaina, Bjorn+Linlin, Tsovinar |

Well it being the most dominant handheld for almost 10 years (Gameboy Color came out in 1998) kind of obligated it to having a lot of bad games. It's closest competitor the Game Gear really didn't even come close, so if any console rules gaming that long it's bound to get a lot of crap games. --- BF ID: Birck #1559845599 Leads: Elaina, Bjorn+Linlin, Tsovinar |

Monopoman 12/03/18 3:46:12 PM #2 | It's probably not appropriate and even if it was that type of movie would bore most 7 year old kids I know.

Monopoman 11/27/18 3:24:00 PM #37 | Chewster posted... I don't really understand the point of this topic. Of course people wouldn't mind a BC option if it's there. Beyond that, I don't think most people here are really qualified to speak on the hardware aspect/feasibility. There's more to it than just hardware being powerful enough and having "similar architecture" and a disc drive. Eventually the technology in a console becomes old enough to where anyone can make one without being threatened by the company that made it years ago. https://bgr.com/2017/06/29/nes-classic-edition-alternative-for-nes-and-snes-games/ Here you can buy a console that plays both SNES and NES games, so in another 10-20 years I'm sure we will see a similar thing for PS2. --- BF ID: Birck #1559845599 Leads: Elaina, Nia, Tsovinar |

Meanwhile most Patreon people do their thing whether or not you pay for them on Patreon. So it's more like seeing a guy playing a musical instrument and throwing a buck in his hat or something. You don't have to give them a dime even if you vastly enjoy their content on Youtube or whatever they do. It is funny those that claim they have no talent and anyone can do it, sure you could make the same claim about a musician signing I mean any moron can get up on stage and try to sing Don't Stop Believing but a damn good singer will make that song far more enjoyable.

Topic | Should next gen consoles be fully backwards compatible? |
Monopoman 11/26/18 1:38:44 AM #14 | LinkPizza posted... For Sony or Microsoft, it would be possible. But it would be hard for Nintendo. With multiple discs & disc sizes (GameCube, Wii, and Wii U) and different types of cartridges (NES, SNES, N64, and Switch [though its more of a card], it would probably by a huge system and probably would cost a lot. For the other two, they are use disc, they could probably make a few slots. It would probably still be bigger, but still. Thats if they even have to use different disc slots. But it should only have to go back 1, maybe 2, tbh. More is really nice, but it doesnt really have to go back that far. Anyone that expects the next gen Nintendo console to have a NES cart slot a SNES cart slot and a N64 cart slot in addition to supporting Wii+Wii U and Gamecube is beyond stupid. Sony and Microsoft can pull this off easier though PS3 has a very odd architecture on how games were made for it and that is why PS4 does not have BC with PS3. Though they could have easily done PS1 and PS2 support though... --- BF ID: Birck #1559845599 Leads: Elaina, Nia, Tsovinar |

Monopoman posted...Since people bitch about load times and draw distance, games are more likely to keep the textures on the models uncompressed. This means HUGE install sizes.. and the benefit to players like us is not having to wait 30 seconds to a minute for an area to load after you already boot up the game and wait that initial loading session. Keep in mind not every game company is good at designing their games in a way where load times are very friendly. I am playing Spiderman on PS4 (a launch PS4 not a fancy pro one) right now and am very happy with the load times it's long but at least you never get them going from area to area it's just going inside and outside buildings. In the old days I remember getting load screens if I went to a certain area of the city from another. --- BF ID: Birck #1559845599 Leads: Elaina, Nia, Tsovinar |

Monopoman 11/24/18 7:11:40 PM #7 | Dubcbrand posted... I really liked it for the first several hours. Definitely better with friends. PVP is a joke and really should just be separate for the open world. Maybe an arena type of game would be cool. I think is going to be like Sea of Thieves or no mans sky. Its going to take time to grow and mature but eventually the content will be there. Fingers crossed. Sounds like if all you get out of it is a really good first few hours there are probably a lot of other games worth buying. Though the game has fallen in price drastically fast you can already pick up the game on PC, PS4, or Xone at $34.99. This doesn't even seem to be a Black Friday deal it's just the game has come out to such luke warm response that Bethesda is chopping prices to get people to play. I might pick it up down the line, and this coming from someone that loved the Fallout series since Fallout 1. --- BF ID: Birck #1559845599 Leads: Elaina, Nia, Tsovinar |

Monopoman 11/19/18 7:53:52 PM #137 | The point of this question is not about heroics it's about what a person values more. Human life (not their own child), or animal life (when it's their own friend). Acting like "Oh man I wouldn't save either because i would fear for my own life!" or something is completely missing the point. I will admit for those that don't have a dog the question is pretty irrelevant though. I will point out one upside though is saving the baby would make you a hero to the city you live in for a period of time most likely.

I'm one of those "judge a book by the cover" guys and while I don't immediately write stuff off, it might mean I'm missing out on a gem sometimes. It's just a show about growing up, the stories are based off the real life experiences of Nick Kroll (one of the main guys in The League) and his friend back when they were in high school Andrew Goldberg. It's a very funny show with a lot of great comedic talent in it like Jordan Peele, Fred Armisen, etc...

A big bonus to MTG is when you sell your collection you will reap quite a bit of what you invested (with smart collecting even more than invested in some cases) especially if you own powerful cards that are worth a good chunk of money. Meanwhile in the world of Hearthstone any money spent is pretty much gone. Well even in standard you can get out as you go along, stuff like oh yeah look Carnage Tyrant went up in value quite a bit lately I should sell mine. Sure, it's hard to be 100% positive in cash over what is spent especially when staying competitive in most games requires a constant influx of cash but it is possible more than just "Oh man I have all these beta dual lands I am so rich now." I have done pretty well since I constantly buy and sell cards and that is how the smarter players handle mtg.
