Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

@Tyranexx - Yep, it’s just a green thing for me too. Haha, insanity sauce just sounds like a dare to me. “Insanity sauce, huh? I’ll show YOU insane, sauce.” Glad you made the restrooms though, nobody needs a day ruined by something like that, even if you did earn it a bit! I got my little brother to drink a bowl of salsa at a restaurant once, and it was a five alarm emergency on the way home. My dad was flying down the highway trying to get us home, screaming at my brother to hold it in just a bit longer. Thai food hot is the hottest heat I’ve experienced. I like spicy stuff, but I’ve basically ruined meals by trying to punch above my weight at Thai restaurants.

I gotta agree with Roy, I can’t imagine you being anything other than nice unless it’s a situation with the phone company, or your ISP; and we all get flabbergasted with them. It’s a basic human rite of passage. Everyone has screamed at their phone or internet provider.

@roy130390 - Are you by chance a digital pinball player? I think I’ve seen a handle close to your NL name impressively high on some of the Midway leaderboards.

@bimmy-lee I wish I was since that sounds awesome haha. I do like pinball, but unfortunately I don't have such a nice accomplishment. I was on a somewhat high rank on Dark Souls indicted list on PS3 though, if that counts for something

@Tyranexx IKR, its so dumb that we have to pay for this service just to have data back up only for some games not to support it.

@roy130390 - Well, that’s certainly impressive in its own right, and I’ve never played a Souls game. I just know they require skill and patience. Well done. There’s someone on the Midway boards with a username close to yours, must have tricked me. I play a bit, but my best games are usually in the 5,000-6,000 ranks, which somehow feels worse than not even ranking. I sometimes scan leaderboards on games that have them for NL folks, and they show up from time to time. We have a handful of great Pure Pool players on the site.

I heard something about human turned into monster from Digimon.
Meanwhile, if you know Yokai Watch Jam, some Yokai turned into human (the opposite situation).
They have reincarnated as human as the Yokai World has been destroyed by alien. (Duh... Alien was the scapegoat for all that matters?)

@bimmy-lee Thanks! Although their difficulty has been greatly exaggerated in my opinion though. If you play one someday, learning to approach things with caution is pretty much all you need to do as useless as that advice seems.

5000-6000 is quite impressive considering the amount of players in some games. Which games are your best?

@roy130390 - That’s great advice, typically I’m full steam offense, which would probably get me beaten pretty quick. Patience and caution are two of the more difficult gaming (and life) skills in my experience! I think I could get into the series if a sat down and really tried. I’m not always good at tough games, but I’ve played a lot of beat em ups and hack and slash; so I might at least have the reflexes for them. I’m sure there’s some exaggeration, but it can’t take away from the fact that it takes a lot of skill to master games in the series.

I think I have my highest scores on Medieval Madness and Black Rose, but those are tables I’ve known pretty well for a long time. My favorite table is Monster Bash, but I’m not great at it. It’s just such a cool, fun table. I recently got the pack with Arabian Nights and I’m currently hooked on that table. Taking a little break from it right now to post this reply as I had a couple bad games in a row and started to feel a tad enraged by it. Good ole pinball, it’s really fun when you’re in the zone, and totally deflating when you’re not.

OK I have to say this and I must tell you, but first, please don't crap on me and two, please don't crap on me!

I....I.....I...Ended up buying something in ₚₒₖₑₘₒₙ ᵤₙᵢₜₑ, Please I know, I know, but I do really injoy this game as its fresh air to mobas I used to play, Its more simple and I don't have to put in an hour for each game, Now this is not to say there are lots of issue, Tencent being a big one for me, But I just, Like the game, A lot actually, so please, please don't get mad at me paying for something I injoy,

Plus Tencent is in almost everything so I was going to end up buying something from them sooner or later.

Now if you don't mind me I'm going to lock myself inside a closet for what I have done.

@Tyranexx Yeah absolutely, it can be pretty expensive to travel. So that's totally smart thinking on your part in regards to saving your hard-earned cash for potential emergencies and stuff like that. As much as I would love to go to places like Walt Disney World and of course, that Nintendo World theme park, they can get pretty expensive to get to those places. Especially when it comes to Disney World. My mom and her family has actually been there way before I was born - I'm jealous of her. lol

Wow that's a lot of notifications from this thread! You're quite cool to chit-chat with.

@MarioLover92 I know right? its so much fun to chat with them.

i really love bonehead. since i was a kid ive been primarily a skeleton toy person so obviously hes the only one i had. each toyline, if there was a skeleton id only pick that one. so i had/have a mixed toyline of random skeleton figures from different companies lol
i never realized how brutal the movie was either lol

so heres the holy grail of action figure toy collecting
https://www.ebay.com/itm/294280536933?hash=item44847ca365:g:A...
$4,995.00 or "make offer"


"unfortunately this guy is very, very, very… very hard to find. chances to hunt him down for an affordable price in the wild are probably 1:1.000.000. ebay prices are a month’s rent. dethlor is the holy grail of motu ko collecting par excellence."

...there are so many replicas of him out there these days its almost a shame to drop 5 grand on this.
his body is filled with water, and theres a button on his back that you press and glitter flows through his body.
i bet he wont even take 2 grand...

Guys, i want to ask your opinion if i choose these games for XBOX: Vexx (by Akklaim) & Dr. Muto (by Midway)

They are rated Teen games, but looking at the gameplay they are somewhat between E10+ & Teen games. I heard Dr. Muto was really difficult platformer game. Explain me about those games.
And also, looking at who are the developer & publisher for those games (i have never bought and play any games from those companies) , do you think i was crazy to choose those games with darker theme due to my initial gaming preferences was mostly about rainbow, girlie girlie and kiddies ?
Or should i forget those games for my safety and avoid some unpleasant experience ?

@CactusMan
Was Vexx easy enough for casual player ?
Can i revisit the same places again after finishing the storyline ?
I have experienced with bad platformer games like Chicken Little PS2 that the game was really hard at the end of chapter and there was no revisit places after finishing the game, The End and done.
Also, Scaler was on my consideration.

@Anti-Matter Old Xbox game art, that takes me back, not to far actually.

and i quote:
"Adult collectors who deal with people telling them to grow up, remember this: those who allow their inner child to die are the same ones who develop crippling addictions because, at some point, someone made them feel as if they were too old for the things they loved and they turned to what was presented to them as "adult" things. I believe that those forms of addictions are often credited, somewhat, to trying to full that void that's left after we are forced to let childish things go. A child does what makes them feel happy... so, why can't we do the same as adults? As long as a man's bills are paid, his family is taken care of, and he has his house in order, it is better to spend your time on something that brings you that child-like happiness than something that gives you a momentary feeling of false happiness."

I changed my mind about Vexx and Dr. Muto after i watched some reviews from Youtube that clearly explained something that put me in concern due to gameplay difficulty and something i will encounter during gameplay, and after some deliberation again. Sorry, i have to forget those two games.
Looks like the 12th XBOX game i can consider will be another 3D platformer game again with age rating rated E or E10+. What do you think about Scaler, guys ?

@Tyranexx Azran Legacy is nowhere near that expensive in the UK but it is certainly pricier than the DS ones. As you say though, a lot of other DS games are frustratingly expensive nowadays. It's a shame there isn't a bigger selection of DS games on Wii U VC, or any at all on the 3DS eShop.

I have a 32GB SD card for my 3DS with plenty of space still left on it, so hopefully I'll be able to download any retail 3DS games that I can't find for a good price physically, like Layton vs Wright.

Edit: This conversation led me to check the current prices for Layton vs Wright on eBay and I found one that was 'buy it now (for £55) or best offer'. I offered £45 (the game is £40 on the eShop and I thought it would be worth paying a little bit more for a physical copy), and to my surprise they actually accepted it straight away! So that's exciting, but I've been buying quite a few games recently so I should probably slow down a bit, lol. I was going to get The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles when it comes out tomorrow but I might wait a little while now.

You know the upcoming Metroid fan album? Well by sheer coincidence I met with an artist who contributed to it via Discord. They shared a demo made for that project and honestly it sounds really good. Makes me wonder how good it can get, because that person worked on six of the 65 tracks.

@bimmy-lee They do work with Switch, but I haven't actually done that yet. I was listening to music most of yesterday then watched anime before bed. Probably gonna try them with Switch after work today.
