@TheJGG
I don't even like realistic racing games.
They are extremely boring for me
Just only riding to the fastest very flawless, without drama, what is the interesting point ?
I don't see any interesting point from riding the car without whimsical situation.
I always like cartoonish racing games with at least looks like Mario Kart.
The only F1 game i bought was F1 Race Stars PS3 because it was Chibi Cartoonish and have items like Mario Kart.
No items to smack on opponent, No buy.
And i don't even watch F1 race on TV.

@Anti-Matter If you've read the debate between myself and @ThanosReXXX you'll realise there's more to racing games than Mario Kart, F1 Race Stars and otherwise. I've raced online with other people, and the skill level is quite astonishing. Making mistakes is so punishing, so at times when I'm in the lead I just get in the zone.

@TheJGG
I don't even have any interest into realistic racing world.
Even i am 36 years old man but still adore Cartoonish things.
My brain nerves have different configurations that only accept Cartoonish things than Realistic things.

What ain't broke, don't fix @Tyranexx. That doesn't include your unfortunately damaged legs and otherwise. My careful nature means I don't do things like stupid jumps, parkour, or bike tricks. Ironically I've done an unusual amount of outdoor activities, such as canyoning, paragliding and skydiving.

I was in Wales last August while I was stuck in the UK for half a year (the longest I was in the UK for a good thirteen years or so). One day we travelled to Snowdonia National Park and did a three hour canyoning session. It was pouring down, and it was about ten degrees outside, so it was a very painful experience at first, because of the cold. It was very numbing.

We travelled through dense forest, slid down waterfalls, and ended by climbing up one for fifteen minutes. My legs felt like they were going to detach from the rest of my body but I somehow pulled through. I did paragliding before I left France. We did a... ten day road trip as a farewell, and stopped at the southern coast, which is full of beach. We drove up just above Monaco, and with a few instructors we glided from the top of a mountain all the way down to the beach.

Trucks in Place, you got correct, it was at 1:28 indeed, that's the sampled siren. I played it in the car and it rocked my back teeth. Just amazing, even better with the appropriate scene. Another I can say is absolute perfection is a song played at the endgame of the movie, the battle scene.

It makes me realise that if there was one man who could at least substitute for Hans Zimmer, it's Ludwig Göransson for sure. I can't fault you for having a giant movie list, I imagine you don't have enough free time to binge five movies a day. But when you do have time the one's we've recommended on this thread, are very good.

The Uncontrollable song structure reminds me of the Fogbeast Battle Theme from Xenoblade; Future Connected. It's such a heavy song, and the two lead instruments have a duel. The music in X is so good; half the tracks can be used in battle and be very relevant. I want Xenoblade X to be ported to Switch too, and from an engineering point of view I've no doubt it can run on Switch.

The Titans don't have internal organs. They can't reproduce, but they also can't eat or drink. I'll leave the interpretation to you!

Guys, can you share some online shops in the EU that you use for second hand games. And possibly if they offer international shipping in the EU again

I really need a shop to find some DS games.

@TheJGG Yeah I like how all the Zelda games have these different art styles. Though I didn't like Skyward Sword initially (have yet to revisit it, I know), I do like how its art style is bursting with color. It's quite pleasant to look at. I dig Breath of the Wild's art style too. Can't say I'm too big into Twilight Princess's darker and more realistic looks, but in terms of its story I can see why they went with it.

Always loved the 2D artwork of anything Mario, even the ones made today. They have this nostalgic vibe to it, at least for me that is! It's pretty much how Mario and his friends/enemies looked back in the NES and SNES days.

@Tyranexx Yeah I'm really careful with bees and wasps (example: I don't move a muscle if one's on me), that's why stings have seldom happened to me. I think you're right about wasps being more aggressive, plus those are the most common stinging insect that I've seen. I've seen some bumblebees as well.

Sort of off-topic, but there's one bee I'm not scared of, and that's Bee Mario. At least he doesn't sting.

Oh my god... ohmygod... that race... was... just awesome. There was so much unbelievable pressure from those behind. It was absolutely thrilling for easily the last fifteen laps.

Sounds quite good, @TheJGG .... You do lots of those yet, then? Or thinking of doing more?

@BruceCM My bad, I was referring to today’s Bahrain Grand Prix. Hamilton for once had a slower car than his competition and watching him fight for the win was so good. He had to defend against Verstappen for a good ten laps or so, and manage tyres for thirty laps. Just masterful.

I’ll tag you with highlights tomorrow, it’s very late now.

Lol, I was talking about your Crystalline Chill, @TheJGG ... I'm sure some others here are more interested in the racing stuff, though!

I’m sorry, @BruceCM, that’s a side effect of posting twice consecutively.

I’ve been doing covers for a year and a half now. I don’t post them, they’re all stored on my laptop, but I’ve made around thirty hours of arrangements. They’ve of course gotten better as I’ve learnt the intricacies of... GarageBand, so my recent ones like Stickerbrush Symphony, JENOVA, Butterfly Kiss, have been very good to listen to.

Crystalline chill was a fun arrangement so far, I’ve spent about an hour on it and I’m about 40% done. I’ll post the complete version when it arrives!

So it probably goes without saying, but there are days when I can't get to the forums lately. Rest assured, I will respond to everyone!...eventually.

I did intend to jump around the forums yesterday, but I got home very late from an obligation. I went to my first D&D session with a friend, her husband, and some of their friend group. I went with a pre-made character since I'm new, a human ranger who's a decent jack-of-all-trades, complete with a loyal wolf companion. I had a fun time, but it's certainly A LOT to learn. XD We wrapped up later than I thought we would. To top it off, some very nasty weather was rolling through the area, and to drive home I would've been heading right into the thick of it. So I stuck around for about another hour and waited out the worst of the storm. There was lightning galore, wind, heavy rain, the power went out, and there were some severe thunderstorm and tornado warnings. Everyone made it through fine, and I came home to a standing house. All is well. As a result, I got home about 22:30/10:30 PM.

@BruceCM I grew up on a farm. We would have preferred to let the dog just run around, but she couldn't be trusted with livestock nearby; she liked chasing/herding them. Not the best thing for expecting bovines. So we had to keep her penned up and walked her instead. Too, she wasn't the best at staying on the property.

Not all the fence was electrified, but certain problematic sections of it were; cows can be pretty stubborn when they want to be lol. That particular zapping incident was when I was ten; I was looking for kittens in the barn - we knew a cat had some - and slid between some metal fence I knew I could climb on to get on top of some straw and the live line (Didn't know it was still on). Unfortunately, I was zapped in just the right spot on my rear that it affected the nerves in my right leg, so it seized up. I couldn't move it out of the 90 degree angle it was in. I was very scared lol. I could move it eventually, but it took a couple minutes. It felt a lot longer to my kid brain though.

@TheJGG Funnily enough, I'm usually pretty careful by nature. I'm normally a pretty cautious individual. With the fence incident, I was trying not to hit it, but...I did lol. When I was a pretty young kid, I did arguably take some risks, particularly with heights. I loved climbing ladders and anything similar; I climbed up our TV antenna tower once. Two stories up. Another time, I also innocently picked a toadstool, thinking we could have fried mushrooms. I was told to throw it back outside and wash my hands. XD So...I guess we can say I was a careful kid, but a curious one in some aspects. That, and I'm just somewhat accident-prone. I call my right leg my "bad leg" thanks to all the trauma it's been through. My knee sometimes aches if weird weather is coming, though that happens less frequently these days.

Those sound like really cool trips! I haven't done a lot of outdoor activities like that. I'd love to try paragliding, but I'm not sure I'd do skydiving without some kind of instruction lol. I'd also like to try ziplining as that's a big thing here, but it isn't something I've done either; we were supposed to do it on my senior trip before I graduated high school, but due to a change in plans we couldn't do it. I like doing some outdoorsy things, but the rest of my family that I normally travel with....Well, they like seeing National Parks and cool scenery, but they aren't a fan of getting out in it. I'm a happy medium; I don't mind walking around in nature for a few hours, but I'm eventually going to need somewhere with plumbing and electricity.

Listening to Posterity as I type this out. Another excellent track! Again, I have GOT to watch Tenet....

On free time, I usually have enough time in the day to prioritize my two main hobbies - gaming and reading - but it's hard for me to insert in much else. Now that restrictions are loosening up a bit in my state, I'm starting to deal with more obligations again on top of my job and usual house cleaning/maintaining + adulting. And I'm also trying to stick to an exercise routine. It's a fine balancing act, one that I feel that I'm still trying to perfect a little.

Uncontrollable and the Fogbeast themes do have some similarities, don't they? Could be why I really enjoy both tracks! I daresay the latter is my favorite out of the entire Future Connected addition. The dueling instruments work so well together. I hope most of the tracks in XC2 also measure up! I've heard a couple pieces from that game as well, but the only one that's really caught my ear so far is titled Old Factory, according to YouTube.

I did actually know that about the Titans. No worries about spoiling that much! Though I don't know too much about them past that point.

@MarioLover92 Most insects in general aren't aggressive unless they feel threatened. Hence why I also freeze; not out of fear, but out of caution. Too, bees realize the only sting they get is fatal to them as well, so they're more reluctant unless they or their hive are threatened. Wasps and hornets don't have such a restriction, so they can use their poisonous stabby sticks with relentless abandon.

True! Bee Mario does not sting.

Yeah, sometimes stuff will still happen despite your best efforts, @Tyranexx .... So kind. @TheJGG! I'm sure someone around will be more interested in that, though
