@NintendoByNature How long ago did you play it? There already have been some free updates, I've noticed. When I first booted up the game, I had to download quite a bit of data.

As for paid extras: if you get the Expansion Pass, you'll not only get the Fantastic 4/Doom content, but also two other packs, namely the X-Men: Rise of the Phoenix DLC pack and The Marvel Knights: Curse of the Vampire DLC.

@ThanosReXXX I played last August so shortly after launch. Maybe I'll grab the expansion. But before i do i want to do a strict run through of only avengers( cap, hulk, iron man and thor). I promised myself that would be my next play through. I can easily play this game another 3 or 4 times.

@NintendoByNature Ah, that's a while ago, then. Should probably mean you'll also have to download that hefty bit of extra data. Or maybe a smaller bundle: in my case it was probably the entire bucket load of updates and free DLC released so far. Maybe you've already downloaded some of that when you first played it. But if that's not the case, then you had better prepare for a 30 minute download break, at the very least, depending on the speed of your internet...

@ThanosReXXX cool, I don't think I've archived any data so maybe it's downloaded. I do at the very least want to finish bioshock before i start that. Considering I'm play xenoblade for 3-4 hours a day, the last thing i need to do is add a 3rd big game when you take bioshock into consideration

@NintendoByNature Well, you could always just check the game's data page, and see if there's an update available for you, even if you're not going to play it yet, so it'll at least already be downloaded, whenever you do decide to play it. Certainly a better option than wanting to play it, and finding out that you're gonna have to delay your plans for at least another half hour. Had to play some other stuff to keep me busy..

Ugh, busy weekend. Honestly I'm gonna miss not having a lot of things going on outside of work, grocery shopping, and normal things I need to do around my house. I did manage to fit in some XC:DE earlier.

@Heavyarms55 I can't recall all the ingredients off the top of my head, but I know artificial flavoring and dextrose are included with it.

@BruceCM Sorry, my mind is made up!

@ThanosReXXX Not only creatures sitting on your chest, but sometimes in other areas within your vision as well.

I'm fortunate that I've never experienced sleep paralysis....Well, not to my recollection anyway.

Heh, you have pineapple on your pizza if you must, @Tyranexx......

@Tyranexx Eh... okaaayyyy.... kind of at a loss for words there. I'm a healthy human being of the male variety,
so I don't mind the odd bit of naughty entertainment, but demons on my lap? No, sirree...
Or no ma'am, in this case.

So, never had the "falling" sensation either, then? Most people between around 10 and 17 must have experienced it at one time or another, at least. As described in my initial comment mentioning it, the feeling is literally as if you're "landing" in your bed, due to the sleep paralysis ending, which makes the muscles instantly relax, and that difference between the body first being completely rigid, and then relaxing, creates that falling sensation, because your brain tries to make sense of it, while you're actually still in the process of waking up.

@ThanosReXXX XD That wasn't what I was getting at. I meant in other areas of the room in general, like corners, the ceiling, and so forth.

Nope, I still don't ever recall experiencing the falling situation. It may be that I have, but maybe I mentally censored it. /Shrug

Ha, we finished the pizza conversation and went straight back to sleep. Sorry, @ThanosReXXX, but I don’t think anything will ever beat this sleep conversation. I’ve never had the falling sensation either, though.

Heigh Ho Heigh Ho. It’s off to work (from home) I go.

@Tyranexx Ah, erm... so... >embarrassed< yes, erm... right. Typical case of "what's on a man's mind" then, I guess.
Me so sorry...

@BabyYoshi12 Well, I guess that means that either you and @Tyranexx started drinking WAY too soon, in which case you've forgotten all about it (just kidding, obviously), or you two are some of the rare cases who actually did have a relatively undisturbed sleep history in your younger years, in which case, you should count yourselves lucky.

As @Link-Hero will confirm, the falling sensation can actually be quite harrowing, or at the very least pretty annoying to wake up to. It sometimes had me bathing in sweat, because in my dream, I fell out of an airplane, or from a high building, or something to that extent. I've also had a dream of stepping onto an electrified plate a couple of times, and then woke up with that as my "falling" sensation. Imagine your barely awake self trying to make sense of that one...

As for the pizza conversation: trust me, it has already beaten the sleep conversation, because it has been going on and off for YEARS. You just haven't been around here for long enough to notice...

@ThanosReXXX I do have a vivid memory of literally falling out of my bed more than once, and I may have had the falling sensation and just not remember. I do plan on staying on this website for a few years longer, so maybe we should start a new argument.

ThanosReXXX

@BabyYoshi12 Well, good to hear, and you're very welcome here. Especially since far as I can see, all of your contributions so far have been positive, and I like positivity.

But that also means you'll have to sit through the occasional pizza discussion, especially if @NintendoByNature and @HobbitGamer throw their weight in, so you better do some mental preparation, or whatever it is you do to brace yourself...

P.S.

The falling sensation does not include ACTUALLY falling out of bed. Well, unless of course the sleep paralysis set in when you were already teetering on the edge...

@ThanosReXXX Thanks! 👍 I’m fine with pizza discussions every once in a while.

@BabyYoshi12 I see you can still use some lessons on in-house emoticons, though: that's not an NLife thumbs up...

@ThanosReXXX I don’t know how make any of them with text in brackets so I just use the ones that are installed on my device.

@BabyYoshi12 It's the word "thumbsup" in between colons, like so, except without the spaces:

: thumbsup :

EDIT:
You can find the codes for most of them on this website:

just look up the one you want/need, and scroll down all the way on the relevant page to see the code in between colons.

Even if it works, I’m good with my normal emojis! 👍

@BabyYoshi12 Yeah, man. No sweat, I was only kidding. Saw you working on your text formatting in the other thread, so I figured you'd might want to know regardless.
