Barring an exceptional Remaster posing as a Remake, there is literally nothing compelling on offer, 6 months in. It makes the system scarcity outcry all the more farcical. Gonna have to agree here. Playing Miles has been fun, but there has been nothing compelling about the console thus far to warrant the scarcity.

My grandfather ate sauerkraut quite often...I vaguely remember even the smell was disgusting to me. Now that I'm thinking of it... there was quite a lot he liked that I found repulsive... like sardines. Grandfather ate those on a regular basis too...it was yet another food that would cause me to leave the room whenever he was eating that. Even as someone who likes it, kraut does smell awful. Have you had a reuben? My wife isn't a kraut fan, but even she likes the flavor combination of a good reuben. Hell, I don't like thousand island dressing (or russian dressing) either, but on a reuben, it's great. OPTIMUS124 and HD-Man 2 Quote Link to comment
MillionX Posted May 10, 2021 Author Share Posted May 10, 2021 (edited) nah, the combo of sauerkraut and Russian dressing is immediately off-putting to me. Gaming on a phone--- even with how advanced phones have become... this is still a turn-off for me....a game could look like something potentially great, but when I find out it's only on phones and tablets, right away it gets the "....oh." reaction for me. 👎 Diablo Immortal is the latest example of this.... if they put that shit on a "real system" then I'd definitely get into it. *Tablets are a bit closer to being acceptable to me though...since they naturally can have a much bigger screen, at least.... but gaming on a phone? Nah get out of here with that. *Maybe* I could picture myself playing something super-simple on it, like an older Pacman game but that's about it. (*but even that example is already pointless, as I'd just keep thinking---"Pacman games can be played on 'real systems' already....so why play this on a phone?")

DarkSakul Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 I agree, mobile/phone games aren't appealing to me. I seen very few mobile games get it right And it's still has to be a careful curated and tailored experience to work with phones and tablets. Like Pokémon Go and the Steven Universe RPGs are the examples how you do a mobile game. And even those do not grab me for long. Quote Link to comment

Camacho Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 I liked Samus Returns quite a bit. I too, would have rather controlled movement with the d-pad, but that would have wrecked the precision aiming. Other than that, the only 3ds games I played were Between Worlds, Shinobi, Starfox 64 remake, Majora's Mask Remake, Mario 3d world, NBSMB 2, some VC titles, and a couple indies (CotM and Shovel Knight, both of which were double dips). There were a couple of 3ds games I was interested in that were ported before I bought one too (RE Revelations and Mirror of Fate, the latter of which isn't particularly good). It's good for playing DS games too, as my DS doesn't like to read some carts anymore, and the screen is much smaller. The grip was worth it, I have no intention of taking the thing out in public anyways. Hawkingbird, DoctaMario and Chadouken 3 Quote Link to comment

Yeah, it's really acidic, so it has a vinegary smell. Sauerkraut is a naturally fermented food, so all the bacteria you need to make it is already on the cabbage. Lightly wash some cabbage, toss in some salt to keep any nasty stuff from growing, cover and wait a week or two. Kimchi and pickles are made in a really similar way. Vinegar is also fermented, but it makes its acid by germs eating booze and pooping it out. That's why there are different types of vinegar: it's tied to the type of booze it was made from.

Sauerkraut, vinegar, kimchi, pickles, kombucha and such are all made the same way, though fermentation. Like what KingTubb said. Yogurt and Cheese is also made by fermentation. Fermentation is one of the ways how people used to make food last for a while before refrigeration. 1 hour ago, iStu X said: It just always smelled like vinegar to me You supposed to drain Sauerkraut before you cook/prepare it some people also rinse it slightly. I usually squeeze the kraut by hand till I get almost no fluid left, then pan fry it with some oil, maybe some smoked meat along with it (turkey or pork). Quote Link to comment

DoctaMario Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 (edited) The real hero of Silent Hill 2 is actually Pyramid Head. He's the judge, jury, and executioner of the game and is there to remind James that killing people doesn't come free. Now, whether PH is real or just a figment of James' imagination (i.e. his guilty conscience come to life) is a question, but, for every body James piles up, there's another PH chasing him down to remind him of it.

I know a lot of people listen to his early to mid 90s stuff when he got trapped into doing more power ballad stuff but even those are really excellent songs. I feel the same way about Prince.
