  1. I regret not getting it while I was there... I was at a store earlier today and saw Lonard, Part 6 on blu-ray!  Yeahhh I'm going back to get that sumbitch tomorrow; hopefully they still have it.  I never thought I would see that anywhere, and on blu-ray?!?  Yeah that's mine.

     

    ...I also spotted a dvd collection of the old C.O.P.S. cartoon... I didn't realize that was ever released as a complete thing on dvd... I was kinda lukewarm on that show though.  Now if they had some goddamn SILVERHAWKS in there it would've been bought SO fast.

     

    Seriously, man... observe the greatness:

    That's GOLD, Jerry!

  2. yeah, I miss this franchise...


    I only played Nosgoth for a short time though; it just irked me that it had nothing to do with Kain or Raziel, was multiplayer only (absolutely NO story content at all) and of course online-only.

    I loved Blood Omen so much I would record certain parts of the game back in the day, and of course that was back in ancient times when VHS was still the thing.  Oddly enough I never bought it for PSP; it was re-released on PSN for either that or Vita; I forgot.

     

    *I had forgotten about that newer game until this video mentioned it; I remember seeing the preview footage; once again frustrating that it had apparently nothing to do with Kain or Raziel.

     

    At least now I have a game with more traditional vampirism being represented well anyway [Vampyr] and a more pure action one coming up next year (Code Vein got delayed to 2019)

  3. 3 hours ago, DangerousJ said:

    Million, what systems do you have?

    Modern/recent stuff---- Switch, XB1, PS3, XB 360, WiiU, PS Vita (x2; Slim and original OLED version) and PSP (x2).  I also have a few games on a Windows PC laptop. (Diablo 3, Torchlight II which I barely played... Kingdoms of Amalur and Bayonetta, and random other things.)

     

    Older stuff--- Gamecube, GBA SP, the original "brick" Gameboy, Dreamcast, SNES, NES, my original Atari 2600 (though no power cord for it) and I have one of those Atari Flashback systems; funny that even that remake of the Atari...that itself is sooo old now...I got it several years ago at a Target.  I noticed recently there is a portable one now; funny that it has 6 buttons for some reason---it's a goddamn Atari; the 2600/VCS version always had just 1 button..what are the other 5 for?😆  There is also a portable Genesis I saw in Target and Walmarts recently; I might actually get that...it's about 45 bucks.

     

    Systems I had that are dead or gone---> Playstation(dead), Original Xbox(dead), Original Gameboy Advance (sold) GB Color, Genesis and yes... the CD-i.  Yeah I actually had that shit.  Damn I've had a lot now that I think of it.  

  4. It's good to read that this game is apparently doing well enough that the company is happy... 

    http://www.playstationlifestyle.net/2018/07/13/vampyr-sales-numbers-first-month/#/slide/1 

    I still plan to get the PS4 version too... I have about 66 hours total on the XB1 version...nearly at the end of my 2nd run; last thing that happened was me turning an entire district hostile; everyone over there is dead or missing. 

  5. hahaha this game is failing as hard as possible... I'll admit to being a bit out of touch in the first place since I never got the appeal of this "battle royale" trend in gaming... none of them look fun to me...(*I actually was one of those people that got Fortnite for the regular game that is now called "Save the World"; couldn't care less for the Fortnite BR)

     

    *anyway, I'm cracking up at these numbers... apparently 249 players online on launch day 😆 🤣

     

  6. cheh, Jiren from DB Super was/is such a goddamn monster....*spoiler warning of course...though it's odd if a Dragonball fan somehow has NOT seen Super at this point, imo*****

     

     

     I was just thinking about it out of the blue... it took allll that from Goku with help  to defeat this guy......and even that was only because Jiren was worn out at that point....he was exhausted.... yet still handling them, and they just barely won.  Sheeeeit, I love how insanely overpowered that dude was.

  7. So... checking the eShop just now on Switch, I noticed GALAK-Z Variant S was on there... and FREE!?! (sheeeeit, Galak-Z was one of the reasons I was going to get a PS4 at least back when it was a new thing)

     

    but of course my initial hype was immediately killed when I saw those dreaded words that are attached to a sadly increasing # of games lately---"internet connection required".  Well you can fuck right off with that horseshit.  I almost still went for it because it's free but just the principle of the matter irks me....and it's not the same shit that was on PS4 and PC anyway, so nah they can piss off with that foolishness.

     

    These devs that keep onnnn barking up the "online only, lol" tree... I really, really wouldn't mind seeing people like that just get punched as hard as possible for a while.  

  8. Well, as usually I will have to watch Originals later... Dad called earlier so I had to call him back... in anticipation of the usual long monologue, I called at about 6 something, figuring he might be wrapping up his speech by 8-ish and I'll just miss a few minutes of the show...nah, he spoke for 2 hours and 42 minutes this time.....I still turned on the tv when the show came on but could only halfway listen for most of the episode. 

     

    ...anyway, that girl playing Niklaus' daughter Hope is one seriously FINE quality white meat....goddamn that girl is somethin' nice.....ah, I found the instagram...ohhhh and oh yes she's 18, folks...feel free to have all the nasty freaky thoughts you want:

    Tabs will be kept on this one for sure.  CW casting directors strike gold once again....they know what's up.

  9. yeah I'm also glad I procrastinated on Sonic Mania... I'm also looking to get the physical version on Switch.  Whenever there is the option to get a physical version of a game, I go for that....even though on X1 (and apparently PS4 I hear?) you still have to install the shit which is another stupid thing, imo.  Switch still does that like the previous generation where you just play right off the game card itself...no need to install.

    *edit---I also waited and fortunately Azure Striker Gunvolt got a physical version on Switch... I bought that immediately when seeing it in a store one day.

     

    that vampire show I mentioned earlier-- Kindred: The Embraced...this was based on the rpg Vampire the Masquerade.... I've already found a spot for all 8 episodes...of course since it's an obscure, forgotten show no one gave a shit about, I doubt it will ever be taken down.  I'll be able to watch all of that... the first episode was quite boring though, unfortunately.....kinda surprising since it was supposedly produced by the great Aaron Spelling...a guy that knows how things should be done when it comes to prime-time tv. 

     

    Another vamp show that got canned more recently--- Dracula on NBC... I really miss that one; it was actually quite good, imo.  Reference--- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dracula_(TV_series)

     

    There was also a daytime soap -- Port Charles...a spinoff of General Hospital, but it also had some supernatural stuff going on in there. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_Charles

  10. *recent conversation with a close friend-- the topic of the game Fable came up-- as usual he never got around to finishing part 2 (that guy never finishes any games...one of the downsides to being "Mr. Family Man", y'know).  Since he didn't mind I went on to explain exactly why that is the absolute WORST final boss encounter I've ever experienced in a game, then it suddenly hit me--- this is like if Rian J. along with the rest of the current Star Wars "regime" wrote the ending to that.  Basically this sort of troll ass thinking, behind the scenes->>"Ohhhh you THOUGHT there was going to be some epic final battle, eh? Ehhhh?  GOTCHA! We put the most anti-climactic horseshit EVER in there instead! GOTCHA!!! HE DIES IN ONE HIT, LOL!"---yeah fuck that.  It has been years now, and that ending sequence still irritates me.  

     

    We fondly remember how awesome part 1 was though; I only played a bit of that but it was a damn good first impression.  I remember the townsfolk running back to their houses when I transformed into that hulking beast...they'd shut the doors thinking they were somehow safe in their homes but they were wrong...you could bust down the door and get in there...ravage the entire town.  In both games you could be such an evil monster... heh, man those were good times.

  11. surprisingly, this one sneaked past me; I've never heard of this vampire show until just now on a random search:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kindred:_The_Embraced 

    sadly it only lasted 8 episodes though.

     

    *on the issue of Vampire Diaries--- I recently got almost all of them now on dvd or blu-ray.... the only one I don't have is season 7 now.  I should go on and get everything else I want, since it appears that the days of physical media are coming to an end.  Unlike the average person of today (surprisingly), I happen to like actually owning physical copies of games, tv shows and movies I truly care about.  It's stupid that everyone's apparently on board with this upcoming scenario where everything is streaming (*good luck watching your favorite thing when Netflix or whatever other service suddenly doesn't have the rights to host it anymore) and/or "online only!".... fuck that.

  12. Vampyr--the continuing adventures...

     

    hell yeah, I made it back to a certain part in the story where I am now hanging with the elite vampire club.... about to turn a certain someone; this will be different course of action from my previous go at it.  

     

    Powers-- surprisingly I haven't gone for the "coagulation" ability yet...but it is a good one (you magically stop the blood in an enemy which results in them being immobilized for a few seconds)... I'm just trying another setup in terms of my abilities.  I'm sittin' on 11,170 xp at the moment since I fed on some folks in Whitechapel.  I intend to turn that whole district hostile very soon; my mesmerize level is 4 and probably should go up after this next point in the story.  I also ran into one citizen I didn't speak to the first time around...this guy is quite an asshole... I imagined they purposely designed him to be a tempting kill... but the amount of points I'd get from him at the moment is pitiful (only a few hundred), so I left him alive for now.  Clay from the first area is like that too... right now he's only worth 700 points...not quite a worthy meal at the moment.  There's other people that are worth thousands.

     

    I picked a different ultimate this time... this power where you summon shadows that grab and hold a person up in the air and stab at them... this is THE SHIT, man...it looks so damn cool, does great damage AND immobilizes them since they're swept up into midair like that.  

     

    heh, awesome... just turned that character successfully.... also went on a quick feeding spree; had 22,000+ points to work with!  I went from something like 24 to level 30.  Vamp GOD status attained, folks.

     

    ...hahah yeah just ate 5 people in Whitechapel, then rested; on the next night "The Fall of Whitechapel" is front page news.  Haha all those fuckers are GONE, man... the people I left alive all died. 🤣

  13. Ok I'm finally watching Luke Cage again... season 1 though... holy shit the girl that plays the counselor in episode 4 of season 1!!!!  Goddamn that's a gorgeous one... looking her up now... hmmm this is a tough one; apparently there's a million people involved with this damn show..?  I will find out eventually.  She looks like a slightly browner version of Lisa Bonet...perhaps a little Rae Dawn Chong in the mix too..with...glassesssss... absolutely gorgeous. 😮

     

    yeahhhh and looks like Luke is about to pounce that fine little ass....

     

    ah there she is...that took a while going through the whole list of cast on imdb

    Parisa Fitz Henley

  14. haha this beatdown on that dog is goddamn hilarious, man... "that escalated quickly" would be quite an understatement.

     

    heh, this guy has some cool powers.  FINALLY this show got good again, imo.

     

    back on powers---another solid choice for me would be Intangibility...a strong 2nd tier power there.

    Also--Elemental: Earth power... basically; you could be like a real "Gaara" with that.

  15. man, the world would be so much more interesting/cool if it were like the world of My Hero Academia....hell yeah I'd like to go to a Hero School and perfect whatever my "quirk" ability is.  My top picks for powers has always been the same (assuming we can't just cheat and say "I have the Power Cosmic" or "Magic" or any other "I can do anything" deal)...it's always one of these for me:

     

    • Strong Psychic powers...like Xavier level, of course.
    • Physical Invincibility, perhaps combo with superhuman strength.. at least Spiderman-level or better strength.
    • DC Speedster powers.
    • Elemental-- water control.
    • Perfect animal mimicry like Vixen or Beastboy (especially if I could mimic multiple animals at once; like imagine going with the strength of a silverback gorilla + the speed and agility of a cheetah + the extremely poisonous bite of a black mamba!  That shit is too awesome, man).
    • A "Copycat" power; in a world of other superhuman things...this has obvious potential to be ridiculously OP like AMAZO.

    ^I'd be be happy with any 1 of these abilities for sure.

  16. hell yeah, this "Nineties" show on CNN is bringing back all the memories... they've mentioned Dream On from HBO, Def Comedy Jam, the late night talk show wars of Leno vs. Letterman (who would be chosen as Carson's successor), Beavis & Butthead, etc. etc. etc.

    They just mentioned the tragedy of Freaks & Geeks only being around for about 18 episodes 😞 

     

    Tomorrow night they'll do "The 2000s"... I suppose it is finally time for people to have nostalgic feelings about 2000 -2010.... let's see from the 2000s, off the top of my head:

     

    • 24 on Fox; surprising since if I recall it was shortly after the 9/11 attacks.
    • Survivor was a hit for CBS
    • Power Rangers Time Force; I think that was 2001 or so... Wild Force was then in '02, then Ninja Storm after that.  "raaaacing toooo anotherrrr time, CHRONOMORPHERS areeeee online!  Timeless wonders fire and thunder allll to save the worldddd GO GO TIME FORCE!"
    • In gaming we had Dreamcast still out there; it was released 9.09.99.  PS2 later in 2001.  MvC2 was that NEW hotness at the time, man.
    • Real World and Road Rules was really going strong, at least for me; I was watching every season...along with those "Challenge" seasons where they'd get together and compete.
    • WWF had to become WWE; and it was much better back then, imo... Stone Cold and Rock was still regulars in there, and they had a solid lineup of "Divas" to watch... ohhhh and I was buying those Divas DVDs every damn time.
    • MTV's "Undressed" was on and one of the hottest things on television, imo...if you're like me and actually like softcore TnA stuff.  I was recording every episode....that's another thing; I was still using a VCR regularly back then.
    • S Club 7 featuring my baby Tina Barrett 😳 
    • That goddamn BET UNCUT!!! Woo lawd yes all that ASS you'd see on there....lawd have mercy 😳 

     

     

  17. ^oooooh damn YES.  That's more like it.  I guess she wants to downplay her hotness on her own instagram page for some silly reason.  When she's all dolled up the results are INSANE.  That girl had me mesmerized the first time I saw her... I was checking out Teen Wolf since I heard Shelly Hennig joined the cast (former CW hottie; Shelley was on The Secret Circle)...and bam...fine ass redhead with SHORT skirts on, showing off those lovely pale legs.  Goddamn she is fucking incredible😳  

     

    I wonder if that show is still on netflix...it's one I kept putting off... always thinking "ehhh I'll get caught up one day.."
