I got a cooler-looking playable character and beat a guy into submission with politeness and guilt tripping. You mean 3?

Keeping my expectations low. Understandable from what I've heard about how the series ended, but I don't think it'll be that bad. I watched it around the time it came out and seeing it a few months back I think it's alright enough still. (It's ~20 years though so keep the expectations on CGI in mind.)

Acacia Sgt Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 I think the first one I watched was the third movie. And I think because I don't really remember. My experience with the first movie's events was definitely first through Kingdom Hearts II, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Update: It still does not work The SD card and the adapter thing work when connected via an IDE to USB thingy, which leaves me to believe that it's some problem with the network adapter Or jupiter is in retrograde or something, idk I gave up and installed PCSX2...which was also a pain. On Linux it seems the only simple solution was this development PPA. Building from source didn't even work. :v I was also going to complain there was no Snap like there is for dolphin....but there is a flatpak, which is basically the same thing. ...Not that anyone here understands what any of this means, mind.

Considering inflation since then, those numbers are even worse. Considering Earthbound was released in the US in 1995, using the first inflation calculator I find doing a quick search and setting '95 as the year of conversion, the price in present day dollars would be $157.57. Tetris would be 119.12. Not to excuse the price creep to $70 at all (which would be $39.95 in 1995), but we are fortunate in ways you could say.

Sooks Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 Oh speaking of watching older “classics”, I just watched the OG Spider-Man today, the first of the Raimi trilogy, which I had never seen before (I’d only seen Marvel’s Spider-Man movies). And like, all of the acting was... not good? Like everyone was sucking and then JJ showed up (J.K. Simmons according to Google) and completely acted circles around everyone else in like his three scenes. I mean I was expecting the special effects to not age well, and they didn’t, but like... dang, the acting. Is that a popular opinion? Other than that it was, I don’t know, a little dull but I didn’t hate it. The acting was sometimes entertaining with how bad it was, though. 2 minutes ago, Armagon said: HP sponge 9 minutes ago, Sooks said: Physical pain.

Statistically speaking, there surely is at least someone out there who has. I mean, many things I got introduced to was thanks to crossover works. So from personal experience I know it's possible.

Tetris would be 119.12. Damn. I guess games could be considered a luxury back then. We all have the stories of "i could only get a new game every few months" but i imagine that was especially true back then. Of course, the cost of production was the main factor to the higher prices. 9 minutes ago, Sooks said: Oh speaking of watching older “classics”, I just watched the OG Spider-Man today, the first of the Raimi trilogy, which I had never seen before (I’d only seen Marvel’s Spider-Man movies).

A lot of people treat the Raimi trilogy (well mainly 1 and 2) as if it were the Holy Grail but the movies do have flaws in them that a lot of people seem to ignore. The acting is one of them, as you said, J.K Simmons is in a league of his own. He basically owns JJ now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I don't have a flatpak installer currently. But the whole points of snaps/flatpaks is they "just work" regardless of your system environment, so I see no reason why it wouldn't. I couldn't actually build an executable from the source and the instructions I found on various places to setup a 32-bit build environment didn't work, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benice Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 btw @Saint Rubenio,When you get back to Kiryu, there's a move in Beast you might like. Knock someone down, then use the grab button near their legs. After that...I think it's the Strong/Heat attack button you'll want to use? Might be throw. Anyways, that one seems like it'd be up your alley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
