What's the most number of times you've bought the same game?

There were some Metal Slug games I bought at least twice. Technically I bought Final Fight a few times because of all of the re-releases and game bundles over the years.

There was a time when I would buy fighting games for both console and PC.

Game Journalism Layoffs: Everyone Suffers Without Expert Criticism

Expert criticism?

The most recent articles I have seen concerning "expert criticism" have been:

"I have played Diablo IV as a Druid in bear form and I hate it"

"Super Mario Theme is being inducted for preservation in the Library of Congress and I hate it"

"This is MY theory about video game movies"

I'm convinced video game journalists are idiots that skated through college writing about their favorite Nintendo games.

At this point, I believe Dwayne only cares about movies that involves him in the production. Black Adam was a pet project outside of any cohesive plan or roadmap. That has been the common DCEU problem before Gunn became involved.

More of Elon Musk being Elon Musk.

Apparently a clown based on this RE4 situation. Never heard of dude before this and this doesn't make him look good. 

Most of his videos are interesting, but his take on RE4 seems like a misfire. He just seemed bummed out about the changes to dialogue and action scenes.

A nice rundown of indie games by genre.

SF6 is so close to the finish line now Its gonna be a shame when MK12 gets announced 2 weeks from now and it kills SF6

It is going to be a busy year for fighting games. Between SF6, MK12, Granblue Rising, potentially Tekken 8 AND season 3 of Strive, the later half of this year will be wild.

The movie released March 17th, and wasn't one of those simultaneous digital releases. Was it that bad?

I haven't seen it, the reviews have been lukewarm at best. It is weird since the movie still is in theaters, the Flash won't be out until mid June and the next Warner Bros movie release is Renfield.

E3 was just an over-hyped trade show. With video game companies doing their own presentations and video packages it cuts out the middle man. No need for corporate trips, elaborate booths or excessive advertising costs.

So the bed's gimmick is free attacks after a special as well as forcing the opponent into a mix-up guessing game. Cool.

It varies area to area what is considered a busy, active dating site. My sister met her fiancee on plenty of fish years ago. I usually try to get dates through networking (friend of a friend, etc).

Fun fact: Almost all dating sites are owned by the same company.

Was the super meter in SF6 ever discussed? I did not play the beta and I was watching the most recent developer matches. My understanding of it is this:

-Whiffs do not build meter

-Landing attacks build meter

-Getting hit builds slightly more meter than landing attacks

-Landing a super does not build meter

I'm not certain if drive meter attacks factor into building super meter. Does this sound accurate for the super meter system?

What do you guys think about SF5 newcomers getting into 6?

Laura, G and Menat. I am hoping for Lucia, but I know she is a long shot. I am surprised that previous Final Fight characters were not included in the beginning since so much revolves around Metro City in SF6.

Playing Pokemon Emerald for the first time. I can see why people hold the game in high regard. It is fun to play and it is interesting how routes in existing areas continue to open up throughout the game.

Stumbled upon this.
