@ThanosReXXX Ugh, you are lucky today! I'd typed a big reply because I think you're coming away with inaccurate information due to a misunderstanding of what I said, which I hate leaving "fake news" floating in anyone's head....but then Nintendo Life decided to explode, lost my reply and greeted me with an error. And I don't feel like retyping it.

"Internal Server Error

Ah well.

@HobbitGamer I'm pretty sure where Thanos is there's a government council regulating the exact phrasing of the "i" in "Oink" though

And the cow goes: Oënk oënk

No, it's pronounced O&nk O&nk

And the Black Angus barns are filed with ever-flowing Heineken taps.

@HobbitGamer - I could take down an entire big bag of twizzlers over the course of a few hours. Do you go twizzler straw in the soda, or keep them separated?

I grabbed that escapists 2 game on sale. The idea sounds awesome but I just can't figure out the gameplay. Kinda stinks,I was really looking forward to it. It has a brief tutorial escape, but it's kinda hard to replicate when you get to a new prison.

@NEStalgia Haha. Cool comparison. The first time I tried the flavor trifecta of Kung Pao (salty, spicy, tongue numbing) it has that kick of “I Can’t Explain” on your taste buds. The sound of a “Chinese Invasion” has a bit less of a appeal though. Too bad they brought mostly Muzak with them, because I’d like to hear some Chinese equivalent of garage rock or merseybeat.

That’s cool your place includes the Sichuan peppercorns. I’m not sure the place in my hometown has it in their kitchen. Or maybe they are keeping it to themselves 🤔

Too bad that Disney Tsum Tsum Festival game isn’t a bit cheaper. I’m going to totally get a drinking game going with that one. It looks like Wii era graphics with fun loving friends good time. Imprecise controls be damned.

@bimmy-lee I go for the cherry pull n peels, and just tear em as I game. Two pieces, about an inch in length, one for each side of my mouth. Squirrel style.

@HobbitGamer - I like it. Amazing technique. If you have a whole bag of pull n peels, you have to eat one strand whole for a flavor stampede.

@NintendoByNature - I’ve stared at both Escapist games every time they’ve been on sale, and even though it’s intriguing; I’ve never pulled the trigger because they seem like games I’d never fully figure out, or give them the amount of time it takes to figure them out.

I have watched Frozen 2 from cinema just now.
Well.... I wasn't really impressed.
I didn't drop any my tears of happiness indicated i didn't drive my emotional feelings for 103 minutes. Just some giggles from Olaf's jokes and funny attitudes. The songs weren't memorable and i forgot how did the songs played. Overall, quite mediocre for me,

@bimmy-lee I mean, i WANT to like it. I Just don't get it. I end up doing roll call, lunch, showers, exercise and job fairs, but I cant seem to get any items to craft or find anyway to break out. It's really confusing honestly. I'll keep trying but i was really hoping for a Great experience as this was on my wishlist since launch.
@anti-matter I'll probably take my daughter next weekend. She loved the first one.

@Anti-Matter This proves my theory that sequels are never as good as the original - they can't be. If the first is a runaway hit like Frozen, there's going to be so much hype for the sequel it'll never live up to it. Oh well, I wasn't planning on seeing it anyway.

@Matthew010
Frozen 2 focused on searching the mysterious voice, discovered the reason why both their parents died, remove the thick mist that covering a whole forest, Kristoff plan to get married with Anna, searching for the fifth element to solve the problem, water have memory so it could tell the history or what happened in the past, etc.

@Sunsy That's cool you played SA2 on Dreamcast back in the day. I really wanted a Dreamcast as a kid, but it was a lot of money back then. I did play Sonic Adventure on a kiosk at Sears, but that's about it. So I ended up sticking with the N64. I did have one eventually, but mine kept resetting over and over again.

I like Mario Tennis Aces quite a bit actually. It's a bit light on content, but the gameplay has a ton of depth to it. I like the moves you can do in that game, particularly the trick shot and that slow-motion move. I would recommend it when it goes on sale.

@MarioLover92 I think I also first played Sonic Adventure on a kiosk, though it was when GameStop first opened where I lived.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. I had fun playing the trial and I still have the save file in event I pick up the game.

@Sunsy I can’t remember if you’re in the US, but Target has Aces as a Black Friday doorbuster for $30. I think.

I'll be able to go out on Black Friday since that place who hired me to play Mr. Voorhees turned me down for their Christmas operations since i'm just to tall for their costumes.

@Matthew010 I have few exmaples of the opposite

Predator 2 is at least for me better than Predator (yeah sorry Arnie).

Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust for me is better than the Original Vampire Hunter D.

I prefer Die Hard 3 than any other Die Hard.

I am sure I could think of 1-2 more.

But your point still stands. Sequels are usually worse!

@SheldonRandoms - You’re being typecast! Even so, I see no reason why Jason can’t be a part of this operation. Christmas comes for him too. It’s probably a real special day for him. I’m sure he gets something nice for his mom’s head.
