@ThanosReXXX Pretty much the same here for online play. Especially since at GameStop, Play N Trade, and Blockbuster, regular customers that I liked would want to game with some of us workers. Xbox’s gamer tag system is fantastic since it’s like a phone number in that it’s just one thing for any game. A very common sense approach, just expanded upon more as the service grew with parties invite scheduling and such features.
With the exception of a few games, all my pre-Switch was played on Xbox Live. Nintendo games were always played with others together in a social gathering. Playing brawl after work, guitar hero, sports. Playing starfox or Pokémon in line for midnight launches. It was very much like the Switch commercial with ‘Karen’ bringing her Switch to the rooftop dinner.

@HobbitGamer I still fondly remember gleefully elbowing and punching friends next to me on the couch, after I'd finished them off with a head shot in Goldeneye on the N64, and never even being the slightest bit of annoyed at having to accomplish all that by only being able to use a quarter of a 17 inch CRT screen...

@ThanosReXXX Haha, yes! Don’t forget the contraptions and efforts made to obscure half the tv to prevent screen looking in 2v2. Unless it’s the Stacks level. No rules in Stacks!
@ThanosReXXX I fully read any bits where I'm specifically mentioned, so don't worry.
@Morpheel What's crazy is that I only was able to bag about twenty or so; not only was I stuck in one spot for most of the performance/the community day, but I thought it would be rude to play during the actual performance. XD
I haven't had any luck with shiny spawns in the wild outside of special events, so you're luckier in that regard. Well, besides the shiny Lugia that I bagged after finishing a round of research tasks last month.

Hi, Thanos. 😀
I'm kinda curious with Microsoft presentation at E3 2019 , 10 June at 3am (West Indonesia Time).
I think it will be announcement about new Xbox machine, but since i knew Xbox games at E3 presentation will be always 99% 18+ games, i'm kinda concern to getting know what's new from Microsoft.
I just want to know if Microsoft will reveal their new Xbox or not, without watching their 18+ games presentation, i will definetely quit watching the presentation once i saw the inappropriate contents.
What do you think about Microsoft presentation from year to year ?
Did they ever at least show any kiddie Xbox games from their presentation ?
@Anti-Matter, yes, there are always kid friendly games at the Xbox show (Forza, Minecraft, and Super Lucky's Tale are franchises/games that have shown up in recent years, as examples), but it's not like they do a kid friendly segment then move on to the mature games (they kind of skip around, reveal by reveal), so you can't predict when they're going to show an E, T, or M game.

I brought a trident and my copy of Kart64. Let me know when you’re done tripping on cords and squinting at tiny televisions. I’ll pop this in and crush you all with DK. All shortcuts permitted. Nothing is banned. Chaos is a must.
@ThanosReXXX@Ryu_Niiyama - I certainly don’t have the knowledge to participate in your comic book discussion a few pages ago, but I know enough to follow along a bit. I thought of The Watchmen when Thanos (I believe) was talking about how movie adaptions can drift from/don’t always respect the source material. I was as excited for The Watchmen as I’ve ever been for a comic book movie. On the way to the theater, I told my friends, “If they even partially follow the source material, this will be one of the best comic book movies ever.” Well, that movie was a near line by line recitation of the books, and it was really... boring! I was so confused and still am to this day. It seems like a good storyline arc from a comic book could be lifted perfectly from the pages and put 1:1 on the screen, but that never happens, and when it did; it wasn’t great. Any thoughts on why these stories need to be Hollywoodized to be palatable?

Three times i have watched Aladdin 2019 movie, three times i cried again during the scene of Genie's turned into human and set free. The kindness that still touching my heart, me as 34 years old melancholy guy. 😭
@Matthew010
Much better than the cartoon version. 😄
I like Speechless by Naomi Scott, it gave me chills. 😍
The Prince Ali parade 😃, the awkwardness of Prince Ali aka Aladdin 😅, the funny dance scene with Jasmine 😆, the funny scene Dalia accepted Genie's evening stroll 🤣, the scene of "A Whole New World" 😍, the thrilling scene when Aladdin and Jasmine chased by Giant Iago with magic carpet ride 😮, the kindness of Aladdin to set the Genie free and turned into human 😭, it was very interesting moments to see.
Btw, i was surprised to find Ubisoft support for Aladdin 2019 movie when i read the Credit Roll. I didn't really remember what kind of support from Ubisoft for Disney movies but i saw it with my eyes.
I wanted to take my brother to watch detective Pikachu, but we couldn't find the chance to return to the movies before my flight back. Welp. I'll buy him the digital version or something.
