  1. But 4 has the best star fox level made in the past 2 decades. 4 really does make a lot more sense when you actually understand what happening in the story rather than what you get told. Its a shame they put so much of it in external sources from the game. 5's story is just.... ugh.
  2. 4 is included in MCC. Reach should be coming fairly soon to MCC and it looks to get of the horrible motion blur and film grain while adding 1080p/60fps. I wouldn't look forward to replaying 4 or 5 if you didn't like them all that much. 5 is the low point of the series imo. EDIT: This post kicked up some old memories. Especially your hype for Halo 2. My best friend's older brother was friends with a popular "Pro" player. He ended up getting a french copy of Halo 2 a couple months before release and let us borrow it after he beat the campaign and messed around in MP. We had our fill of the campaign thinking that it was pretty fun, couldn't wait for everyone to get it. Little did we know that the online portion of the game would change our lives
  3. This is probably the best answer. Though you could always check how much it would cost to replace the battery in your current iPad.
  4. Definitely in the minority here, but this is my least favorite season. I thought S3 started off incredibly strong, but as time went on I found myself increasingly bored. I found myself looking at my phone from time to time, completely missed what happened, rewound it and found that I missed out on..... nothing. Didn't care or El and Mikes relationship, them being together or separate changed nothing for me outside of a few chuckles. Hop and Joyce were mostly an annoyance for me, their arguments felt forced and the talk they had in the Russian base didn't feel real to me at all or their feelings for each other. Steve/Dustin dynamic was my favorite part of the show, even if it meant Dustin being away from the group. El/Max dynamic was fun too. Season 2 definitely has the lowest point in the series, but I still found it overall more enjoyable than I did S3. I'll rewatch it again after I finish Dark S2 and a couple other shows.
  5. Had no idea win trading was a thing, I still want the seal though. Its the only one that I really want to buy from bungiestore.
  6. I'm like 2 triumphs away from the crucible seal and all I have left is the eggs and bones for the dreaming city seal. I need to find a dedicated team for the competitive. My friends I play with I'm continually carrying and we can't break over Fabled II. Also the freaking energy weapon glitch where it just becomes a outline of the weapon. I have to switch to coldheart because its the only gun I can reliably aim with without a reticule.
  7. Don't think Hardware/Scarlett is the focus of Xbox anymore. They've acquired a slew of studios to remedy the usual trio of series that continually pop up and XGP is quite a steal for the price. Software is definitely their focus next gen, which is fine by me
  8. Its really hard for me to nail down who exactly was the main driving force behind a ton of my favorite games/series. Its more of a studio thing rather than an individual. You definitely still have some developers today like Sakurai and Kojima, but for me to name a singular person for say Halo is a disservice to everyone that worked on it.
  9. You noticed! Yeah on the previous map I stuttered for the star, this time I just ignored it and it saved me a second
  10. Maybe misdirection isn't the right word. The star in the second last room and then the arrow pointing to the left as you come out of the pipe. I was pretty sure I was going to have to run with the star power over some spikes to the next room, instead just ended up in a poison pit at the very end .
  11. Dunno what kind of feedback you are looking for. I dislike the misdirection at the end, its a very short window to correct yourself and forcing a player to replay the stage because of that isn't my cup of tea. The first room can be ran through almost without slow down. The only time you have to slow down is the first Wiggler and Piranha and then the following jump up after that. Everything else can be ran at full speed once you know the route (I tanked your clear rate figuring this out). Second room you almost can't make it through without taking a hit before the boss (at least going fast). You can also pull the boss before the canon and bullet bill start firing, don't know if that was your intention or not. I have like a 1/4 success ratio of the first set of springs actually sending me to the next level, maybe I just suck at jumping though. Dunno if it was your intention or not that you can just jump over the blue switch blocks at the top so that you don't have to worry about grabbing the first shell. Good map, enjoyed it.
  12. Even if you didn't want the TV out, the better battery life is well worth it and the ability to buy new joy cons later down the road when your analogs inevitably get worn down.
  13. Nolan’s Batman trilogy 4K is the only thing so far
  14. I’ve played such a level already, please don’t. They set up a switch every other step with blocks in between so that you have to hit every single switch and did 3 levels of it.
  15. I have made a total of 0 maps. I do have WR on quite a few maps I played during endless.
  16. When I was in my parents basement I would so my cat could freely walk in and out of my room since he would sleep with me most nights. Now that I am in an apartment with a co-worker without my cat I keep it closed
  17. Newegg technically has them, just have to wait 1-2 weeks for it to ship.
  18. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07SXMZLP9?creativeASIN=B07SXMZLP9&linkCode=w61&imprToken=ejs7S3o2shiYJNTLdvj4MQ&slotNum=0&tag=wepcus-20 Been unavailable for as long as I've seen it up.
  19. Machine Gun Kelly - Hotel Diablo 7/10 (I linked my favorite songs) I typically don't like 75% of MGK's albums. Its usually two, maybe three songs stand out, this album is the exception though. It's like all of MGK's different rap styles mixed into one album and most of the songs just happen to be solid songs. Hollywood Whore could 100% be a Linkin Park song. Definitely got that Nu-Metal feeling to it and MGK actually pulls it off really well. I would love to see him continue with this style as I haven't heard it a bunch from him. Its most likely the standout song from the album and it probably contests for favorite song on the album. El Diablo, Floor 13, and Roulette are all "hard" MGK. El Diablo being the standout, its got a sick beat with a fast flow. Roulette and Floor 13 just don't feel as polished in almost ever way. Floor 13 is a little more dynamic and mixes up the beat, both songs just don't feel as polished as El Diablo. Glass House, Death In My Pocket, and 5:3666 are MGK's depressed side, talking about the struggles of life, being famous, his depression. Some hit harder than others, but Glass House hits me the hardest with his lyrics. Death In My Pocket is a close second though. 5:3666 just doesn't have a good hook and that's what holds it back, but its still a solid song. Candy, Wasted Love, Burning Memories, and I Think I'm Okay are MGK's pop/drug side. These are my least favorite songs on the album. I've never really liked his pop stuff all that much with a few exceptions, but Wasted Love and Candy are bearable to listen to. Wasted Love could also been looped in with his depressing songs as well, but it definitely fits the same vibe as the other pop/drug songs.
