  1. Wow. Maybe it's a dumb question I am stating but why would a gamer want to plagerize? Hell, I love giving my own person reviews of games. Nothing in detail like a gaming journalist but hell, I love providing my own unbiased opinion and thoughts.
  2. @Slug Good stuff earlier. Sorry I had to take off but told my son I'd take him to the park. Appreciate the tips as I'm trying to get my skills better.
  3. Death of Superman It's funny that this is WB's 3rd Crack at this but they finally nailed it. This may be my favorite Superman story of all time just due to Superman not quitting knowing what's at stake but what makes it so great is the people around in his life and seeing how much Superman means to them and Metropolis. Superman:Doomsday and Dawn of Justice failed at all of this. The set up for the real Return of Superman with the 4 copies coming is something that can be done right with the Man of Steel's inevitable return. 5/5
  4. Yeah, unfortunately a whole lot of people would flip their shit with a black Bond. I wonder if the Broccoli's and the studio are ready to defend their decision? Would Idris be fine with both the positive and negative attention? would seriously be like Jackie Robinson all over again, sadly, in modern times.
  5. Idris is one smooth dude and British. He's perfect for the role. I would love to see him do the role one time. I would also love to see people lose their minds that there is a black James Bond, lol.
  6. Gladiator It's been quite awhile since I have seen this but I wanted my son to see it. It's a little slower than I remember but still a excellent watch. Phoenix just gets better every time I watch and Russell Crowe just owns this role. And again, Hans Zimmer....nuff said. My son also loved it. 5/5
  7. If the Virtual Console on the 3DS had a bigger library of NES games, I know I would replay the hell out of a lot of those games I grew up on. But I still play the hell out of Punch Out now like it released yesteday
  8. Yeah! Looking forward to this after all the episodes release so sometime in 2019 I'll play it. I can't do Telltale games month to month.
  9. OMG! I didn't know whether to get tissue to wipe my tears of sadness or tears from gut busting laughter for the Bears. But the one fan quote said it best, "If there was no Cleveland Browns, we'd be it." Go Bears.
  10. It is, lol. Maybe a little obsessive but I had fun doing it but other games like Assassin's Creed to collect feathers or the Spider-Man games to collect comics issies, hell naw. I think I was initially turned off to them in Batman until I learned you could go back after the main story completion and get them. By that time, Batman is able to manuver and get to spots easy. Whereas compared to AC and Spider-Man, the collectables were in odd places that required more trickery to manuver than I had patience. But those were needed to see a portion of the story like the Arkham games so I get it. If Rocksteady is working on a new DC game, hopefully they will have learned the lesson and reduce the collectable searchnausea if they are working on Superman, I can easily see Mr. Mxyzptlk serving as that character or reason to have Superman search for collectables. But I don't see myself doing collectables like I did with Arkham again. Well..........maybe, lol.
  11. If it was any other game that had collectables, I skip them. I can't remember any other game or series that had annoying collectables that I got them all but I'm that big a Batman nut that I've collected all the trophies for every Batman Arkham game.
  12. As I played Arkham City my 2nd time, while I loved collecting them, I can admit it was too many. I never complained about it but I can understand the gripes especially when it's a key piece to the story.
  13. I've thought about this and as much as I hate that the Oscars don't recognize popular movies, this is dumb and won't fix people not watching the show cause there is a token cataegory. I've come to accept that movies I like won't be respected by the academy and that's fine. I will continue not to watch until they start taking movies that deserve (I repeat, that deserve) actually nominations and wins in the categories they already have. Oscars can continue to kiss ass.
  14. It does pick up in difficulty but it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Some parts were challenging but I think if you played the game already, you know those parts already to be mentally ready for. I came in with my reflexes warmed up though cause I had just finished the HD Return to Arkham: Arkham City and was just so in love with the story, I felt the urge to jump on Arkham Knight to revisit the story and to earn that platinum as well which I did. What was really good though was that you did not have to find and search for the Riddler trophies in NG+. I enjoyed searching and solving them my first time thru but not doing them really made the story mode fly quickly.
  15. This is a very excellent question. When I was younger, like in the NES and SNES days all the time because my mom bought the games or the allowance was only enough for a new game every so often. When I started earning my own money and started buying games all the time (which would become my ridiculous backlog building), I didn't play too many games over with maybe the exception of Metal Gear Solid 1. But over the recent years whether due to having a need to revisit an old game with my son or an HD remaster, I've been replaying quite a few games within the past couple of years. The most notable ones are: God of War Series Batman Arkham Series Metal Gear Solid 4 Ninja Gaiden Sigma Gears of War Series Honestly the games have tight stories interwoven with great game play along with modes outside of the single player that keep these games in a healthy steady rotation in my consoles. Plus they probably have inviting and attainable trophies/achievements that I will hunt for after my initial first play thru. But these games I have probably beaten at least twice. It's not telling how many times I've beaten the first God of War and Ninja Gaiden Sigma but it never feels old when I replay them.
  16. I buy Marvel and Star Wars movies so Disney is really the least appealing of the streaming services, as of now.
  17. Great news. Glad you were able to cop one.
  18. 100 years? Hell, I think it will be done in our lifetimes if not sooner with how rules are being implemented for safety that's fundamentally altering the game making it less entertaining. Hell, some football summer camps I know are having less numbers in attendance and some high schools are having difficulty putting whole teams together for a season in my home town as parents are not letting their kids play the sport. I'm not knocking the sport I like to watch but I often wonder what football will look like in the next 10 -20 years?
