I feel so bad for PC players who bought Sonic Origins and cannot play because Steam's Summer Sale launched the same time and Steam is now down, lol.

@korosanbo Indeed!

@MarioLover92 Yeah, as I mentioned to @Snatcher, I got a 25th Anniversary shirt for Amy a few years back that sported her classic look too. I like both classic and modern styles for Sonic characters. Yeah, I remember, classic Mario artwork was different than the 3D renders they used when N64 started to appear.

@korosanbo
Speaking about very easy game, I have ever played Pocoyo Party on Nintendo Switch last year and it was too easy to play since the game was designed for toddlers 3 years old so there was almost no challenges at all. I finished Pocoyo Party in 2 hours, literally very short game as the plot was getting back all the stolen invitation from angry cute alien because he was thinking Pocoyo didn't make the invitation for him. It was about misunderstanding.

I played PAW Patrol game too on PS4 (Mighty Pups) and I felt PAW Patrol games was too easy for me but that's the reason I like that game. I will pick All PAW Patrol games on PS4 (On a Roll, Adventure City Call) and PS5 (Grand Prix).

@Anti-Matter On a roll was the one I got by accident from Target

Speaking of Paw Patrol, I had Paw Patrol Mac & Cheese for lunch. I originally ordered Frozen shapes, but the store was sold out and substituted Paw Patrol instead, lol. Still the same stuff, so no complaints, just paw shaped pasta.

Even as an adult, I still like character shaped Mac & Cheese occasionally. I still feel the homemade kind I made a few times is the best.

@Sunsy
Mac & Cheese is one of my favorite dishes.
Homemade is indeed the best, but not the easiest to get right.

@Sunsy
Paw Patrol was pretty popular in China too.
I oftenly saw the product commercial with Paw Patrol picture on it from Chinese TV channels.

@Tremblucay Defintely. It's just really good when it's homemade, here's some I made last year. As for why the Troll doll, I love Trolls, but also it's because I found the recipe from a Trolls World Tour Activity PDF DreamWorks made to promote the DVD. Funnily enough, I always wanted to learn homemade mac and cheese, and found it just from peeking at this PDF file.

I usually post a lot in the cooking thread, I'll post it here since mac and cheese was brought up. It's really cool making the sauce from scratch with real cheese.

@Fizza I usually stop watching related videos to any of that with months of anticipation and it somewhat helps with spoilers, but yeah, that stuff is getting worse and worse. I'm still pissed off that I avoided the Spiderman: No Way Home spoilers from YouTube for months just to be spoiled by a person that I didn't even remember that I had on WhatsApp by accidentaly looking at her status the day before I went to see it.

Oof, that's some unfortunate timing right there. Maybe Sonic's so fast that Steam couldn't handle him and that's why everything's down? Wouldn't be the first time Sonic's brought down an empire 😏

@Sunsy You made it so appealing, even for a non mac & cheese fan like me

@Sunsy
That's a really cute picture and that Mac & Cheese looks delicious.

yeah i do all that, just havent for awhile,. burger and shake sounds good. gotta dip a few fries

You could say it was a Deal breaker! Sorry I will see myself out.

@MarioLover92 I suspect I would've had an easier time with Luigi Circuit lol. I've never been too into racing games outside of the occasional arcade machine, but those sessions are short enough that it doesn't feel repetitive. You'd think I would have tried the Mario Kart arcade racers by now, but they aren't easily found where I am. I even work for an AMUSEMENT operator, for crying out loud, but we don't have any of those. Probably due to the cost compared to some older stock, like California Speed and Crazy Taxi.

@ogo79 Smart skeleton!

@Tyranexx
Here in my hometown Surabaya, there are some Mario Kart Arcade machines, from the oldest to GP DX. Current popular Arcade machine in my hometown is MaiMai by SEGA.

@Anti-Matter Yeah, Paw Patrol is really popular with young kids. No surprise there since toys based on characters tend to be popular with young kids.

While I don't watch Paw Patrol, I've seen other shows by the same studio, one I can think of is True and the Rainbow Kingdom. I like putting it on when I want something cute, but not too in-depth. I think it might be a show you might like.

@Fizza Nah, just the Steam Summer Sales tend to be one of the biggest events in PC gaming, and everyone rushes to Steam and crashing the servers, lol. Given a new game launch today, you gotta feel bad for people trying to launch Steam.

I've learned over the years to launch Steam days before a huge sale (this way I can play single player stuff installed), and wait a few hours to shop. Actually bought Borderlands 2 today for like $5 from the sale.

Also, Steam Summer Sale memes are fun.

@korosanbo @Tremblucay Thanks! I really do like cooking and it is one of my favorite things to cook, even if I don't make it often. Maybe I should shop for ingredients to make it again one day.

A knock knock joke

Knock knock

Who's there?

made

made who?

made you click

@Sunsy
Yeah, I have watched True and the Rainbow Kingdom from YouTube and it was really cute.
I wonder if OG Games want to release more Nickelodeon / Cartoon Network / Dreamworks cartoon series to modern consoles, unlike Disney that I really doubt they want to invest their IP to modern consoles in proper way without F2P and micro transactions.
I missed a lot of modern 3D cartoon series from Nickelodeon Jr like Paw Patrol, Blaze & the Monster Machines, Paddington Bear, etc as I didn't watch TV for long time (maybe more than 2 years).

Btw, did you play Sonic Rider games on Wii ?
If you played that game, is that game easier than 3D Sonic games since the game looks like racing game ?

@Kermit1 That's a good one!
Made me chuckle

@Sunsy
You made me crave Mac & Cheese so much, I couldn't resist preparing it for dinner today. 😅😋
