    I think you mean tempered expectations, not tapered. :p 

     

     

    Another vote for Broken Arrow. John Woo doing good John Woo, it's a dumb but very fun and entertaining 90's action movie with some flair. 

    The spell check on my tablet sucks. I wish I could turn it off cause I know I typed tempered. But yeah.

     

    Anyway. I enjoyed the movie.

    I understand that McDonalds has way more total locations around the country, but in the urban area around my house, I have more Gamestops then I do McDonald's, or damn near the same number.  In my hometown it was pretty much the same way.  Gamestop in a mall, gamestop outside the mall in a strip center, Gamestop a few miles down the road.  If I want a game, I will go in the mall to get what I needed. This was obviously moreso before the days of Amazon and Digital Sales and Delivery.  They could probably have 1/4 the number of Gamestops in some areas doing the same total traffic with way less overhead and labor involved. 

     

    I just never understood the methodology in having so many locations all over the place.

    Same. In the areas I have lived in for the past 10-15 years, I can easily say I've seen many more Gamestops in a close radius than McDonalds. 

  3. So I just finished reading Heroes In Crisis in one sitting. Reading it month to month was not helping me digest the story, which I realize is a typical Tom King thing. I stopped at issue 4 and just let them sit until I had all the issues. I just finished it and....................

     

    Did DC really just shit on Wally West like that? I get that DC seemed to have no idea with what they wanted to do with Wally but not like this. So bummed out and these are one of these stories where I will mentally not have it in my mind when I speak on this character. Wally is my fav Flash and the one I grew up with when I started collecting comics. 

     

    Ugh......needed to vent.

    Alien: Isolation

    The Stanley Parable

    The Talos Principle/The Witness

     

    I doubt I would replay any of these games if VR is added but I think these games would be fun to be played in VR

    Alien Isolation? You're crazy! 

     

    Excellent idea, lol.

  5. If I do have one negative it does stem from the Krypt. I love the exploration and being a Mortal Kombat not, I love seeing the various history of the series shown but the Netherealms made a questionable call of the grind especially with the souls. It takes forever to acquire a decent amount of souls and now I have to have the patience not to spend them to get the unlocks that require so many souls like I've seen for 2,000, 3,000 and 10,000. I unlocked the 2,000 one and I felt that it wasn't worth that. 

     

    Still enjoying the game though.

  6. I am seriously loving this game. Initially it took me a while to get used to the controls due to how much I played MKX  but once I got used to the controls, the fun was unleashed on me. Johnny Cage has always been my fav  MK  fighter but to be honest,  I am loving Jade so much that at one point I was almost playing with her more than Cage. 

     

    - Loved the story mode. I thought the story in MKX was not memorable when compared, to past stories featured from Netherealms like MK vs DC, MK9,  MKX, and the 2 Injustice games. I couldn't put this game down when I was playing the story and I seriously got a little sad when I got the 50% trophy as 

    I knew I was flying thru it and it would end soon. Even seeing the character specific ending, at least the few I have completed, have been thought out endings. 

     

    - As a vet of fighting games since Street Fighter 2 World Warrior, I was pretty damn impressed with the tutorial mode. The explanations were awesome. I think other fighters need to take note. I am one combo sequence away from unlocking the Shao Khan announcer and I just can't do that damn combo in the data and frame section. It's the last one that requires own to continue a combo after the character resets. So you need to pause but be quick and I guess I'm not pausing enough or my pauses are too long. Ugh. I'll get there.

     

    - I'm loving the grind of the Krypt. I don't know how others are feeling but it encourages me to play the game to get the money, hearts, and souls.  Wanted to just unlock looks for Cage and Jade. I then realized the various ways to unlock things thru the towers and Krypt. I know it's not every ones cup of tea but I am loving it.

     

    - Then I tried the team battle online and that's such a fun mode. I need to get back on that.

     

    Seriously looking forward to the release of the DLC characters.

     

    Hit me up on PS4 if you need a sparring partner. Chitownshogun73 is my psn tag.
