    I finished Fallout (the show) tonight and thought it was awesome.  I am not a fan of the games and don't like anything Bethesda makes.  I am just not into those kind of first person action RPG games at all.  So I don't know anything about the game world or anything like that.
     
    But I thought the show was great and can't wait for season 2.  The way it ended just made me want to watch more and they definitely left a great story to be told in the next season.  They also left some things unanswered which is fine too so they can give answers in the next season, unless I missed some stuff.
     
    I had read that some people said it got a little slow/down around episode 6 and I agreed but after finishing the final episode, the direction it went in those episodes made total sense why they did that.  In general, I just am not a fan in shows where they ...
     
     
    All in all, a fantastic show IMO.

    Man I don't think I can express how much I don't care about 8K.  We can't even consistently get 4K 60 across "AAA" titles and you wanna try to throw 8K on the table?  Ya'll already complaining about the ballooning dev costs but sure whatever...

    I don't like the games at all (or any Bethesda games really) but watched episode 1 last night and was kinda blown away by how much I liked it.  Just the opening scene is like HOLY SHIT!

    You all talking bout SF3 versions and made me flip on my cabinet.  I just snapped a video of you.  I suck at 3s but I don't really "feel" any delay.
     
    I can say though playing with a stick, especially a Happ stick, after being on leverless for like 6 months now, feels so damn weird.
     
    But I don't think it gets much better than playing fighting games like this, at least not for someone who grew up in the arcade in the 90's.

    I will only play a wifi warrior if that is all that is available, and I'm set to 4-5 bar filter, so wifi is always 4 bars (never seen a 5 bar).
     
    If I get a hiccup in the first match, which happens like 50% of the time, I will leave after the first match regardless of the outcome of me winning or losing.

    LOL this has to be the worst fucking poll of all time in regards to iconic video game characters.  I won't even spoil any of it so you all can facepalm at this list.

    Kept trying to do Cammy's Lvl3 yesterday. It would not come out at all.
     
    Then I realized the shyt is done with Punch and not Kick.
     
    Aside from that, a few mins of labbing and I feel like I wasn't away for any longer than a few days.
     

     
    I'mma be ready for the Akuma army when he's released.

    I can't believe how bad SF5 has aged.  It just looks so bad and like it is in a beta form in all aspects - graphics, sounds, UI, etc.
     
    I remember when they first showed it off with that Ryu battle (at Evo I think)  and thinking how awesome it looked.  And then from the time the actual beta came out and how bad that was handled, it just went downhill.

    I was talking about the PS4 version. It just looks bad graphically. The current gen build naturally runs and looks well

    I don't think I could possibly disagree with you more.  I think everything about it looks fantastic, aside from some of the UX stuff with like the menus and where certain options are located.  But that is more nitpicky.
     
    Go look at the Digital Foundry comparison video of all the different versions of SF6.  The PS4 (and XSX) version of the game look a lot different than the current gen ones.  I play on PS5 at 1080p on a 10 foot screen and don't notice any jaggies or blurriness.  It looks fantastic.
     
    My only gripe about the visuals of SF6 would be that some characters blend into the backgrounds a bit too much.  I have the stage that is kinda like Gief's stage in prior games out of the list of stages I play on because I don't like how red it is and some characters just blend in to the background a bit.  I have also noticed it on some other stages with very specific character outfits but I can't think of it off the top of my head.  I know it was an Aki color but can't remember which one or which stage.

    This is random AF...
     
    I was talking to my buddy just now about Ermac in the new MK1 and he wasn't aware of the origin of the actual character and the hoax from the original MK1 arcade game.
     
    So I did some digging and found the screen shot of where Ermac originated.
     
    This is from issue 51 of EGM back in the day.   It was a little side column that was in the issue back from 1993.
     
    So if you didn't know the origin story of Ermac, this is where it all came from.
     

     
    EDIT:
     
    There are some more cool rumors about MK here:
     
    https://tabmok99.mortalkombatonline.com/rumored_characters.html
     
    There are some letters in regards to readers writing in about Ermac as well on there, on how to unlock and also call it a hoax.
