You got a job?!!?!

Indeed

YAYA! Congrats!!!

Congrats! @Knuckles-Fajita. Good luck with everything.

Not sure how, but I somehow started humming "sweet dreams are made of this" and it slowly morphed into the bug's life theme song instead.

Yep, it's Vita and animu time.

Sounds like the time I mixed up "Back in Time" (from Back to the Future) and the Marvel v Capcom 2 fighter select screen.... for about 8 years

Congrats! What kind of job?

Yeah, I'd kind of be playing Hunters more for the story tie-ins to the rest of the series than anything else....It really isn't about much of a desire to access more Prime gameplay. I'm totally comfortable reloading my MPT save files on my Wii U to do that. I think I'll just stick with YouTube for this one.

...Though the morbid part of my brain would still like to try out Metroid: Other M at some point since the game is supposedly pretty decent once you throw out the shoddy story elements.

It is a bit slower-paced, a little more horror-centric, and IMO pretty difficult at times as well. It's enjoyable in its own right and has one of my favorite suits in the series to boot, but overall I preferred Prime 1 and 3 to it.

I found Other M to be pretty ok, I actually enjoyed the story far more than the gameplay though.

Watching JFK (1991).
Didn't read the synopsis so I thought this was a JFK biopic, but it's actually a conspiracy film about JFK's death. Silly me.
(It's a great movie regardless)

@Yosheel The bug's life, is that the 90s Disney film with the fat caterpillar? I only know Eurythmics...

@Tyranexx The game isn't bad. I don't know where the internet went wrong lol. There are some cheesy story flashbacks, and there's a gameplay element that isn't... great, but it only shows up a handful of times. The rest is actually pretty decent. I enjoyed the game.

@Tyranexx tock replenishment at a new store opening in the next town over.

@octane Yes that one, the fat caterpillar with the german accent.

@Yosheel I don't even remember the film, let alone the accents lol. They were probably different over here too.

Probably. It was basically his one defining character trait though.

Love the game, it was fun! Antz, on the other hand, was a terrible movie in comparison.

@Octane: I might hit up a couple of local stores for it sometime. I'm sure there are still a couple of copies floating around. Walmart has been cleared though; I last remember seeing about half a dozen copies in the clearance aisle a few months ago.

@Knuckles-Fajita: Not bad at all! As long as you won't be lifting anything too heavy anyway.

[Disclaimer: Tyranexx is a certified wimp in the upper body strength department....]

I was obsessed with A Bug's Life at one point. I even had a bunch of little toy figures related to it.

Antz wasn't bad either, but I definitely preferred the former.

I checked earlier, and Other M is $10 used a GameStop. Def worth a snag at that price, I was shocked. Does it require the motion plus?

I bought it new at Walmart for 5 bucks some years ago.

I enjoyed both Antz and A Bugs Life as a kid. However Antz gave me the impression that it was not appropriate for kids my age back then. It felt more adult.

LOL
Rocky III was my first Boxing movie i knew when i was Kindergarten.
I knew that movie from my Mom's VHS Betahifi video compilation. It included James Bond movie demo (with Horse butt as disguise of aeroplane) & Rocky III opening with Eyes of Tiger song.
Suddenly, Boxing was my First Love sport that i like most.
And that's why i drew a lot Chibi Boxers.

@HobbitGamer Nope. You use the Wii Remote... sideways. D-pad and face buttons. It plays a bit like a top down Super Metroid.
