    Miniature Painting

    I saw this neat Eldar stealth ship paint job the other day.

    The LEGO thread - or how to step on bricks in the dark

    To be fair at 97 she probably forgets a set by the next week, so you can probably recycle 3-4 sets forever if you just take them apart after a few days and put them back in the box.

    Warhammer 40k

    I'm on book 22 out of 54 in the Horus Heresy series, and I can attest that it's very uneven. I've not found any downright BAD books so far, but some have much more interesting stories than others. After a while some of the stories kind of blur together because you can only have so many...

    I'm surprised he didn't call it The VVerwulf.

    A cool statue of what though? The white trash junkie whore NPC or the loud obnoxious black LaQuisha NPC?

    When you get entirely dissolved in acid, I suppose it makes sense to keep going as Smoke.

    Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow (2026)

    Of all the stupid reasons she has to be running her mouth against men who are the main demographic that watches super hero movies, what percentage is from having to go through middle-school as a girl named Alcock?

    I really enjoyed Blasphemous and happily grabbed Blasphemous 2 when it came out, but I couldn't even finish it. I'm not sure why, I just got really bored about halfway through and couldn't be bothered. I might go back to it someday, but I think the general consensus is that it wasn't quite as...

    Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026)

    Trailer's fine, I always thought the memory wipe arc was a mistake anyway. I'm no expert on Spider-Man comics, but when I think Spider-Man I like to think of a fun quip-throwing acrobatic super hero, not a kid / young man depressed, miserable and self-loathing. The world need less super hero...

    Stargate SG-1

    Clearly the solution is to take the Expanse team and send them on SG-1 missions in an entirely new show.

    Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow (2026)

    The problem about this idea of putting those franchises on ice for 20 years... who will even care then? Most kids these days never read comics or read books. Most haven't seen Star Wars stuff except what came out in recent years maybe, and to them it's just a pew-pew space vroom bunch of moving...

    If you're just rushing through the levels, I'd say Yoshi is probably 10 hours tops (maybe a lot less because I'm not sure if you unlock worlds 11 and 12 without having completed a lot of the earlier worlds). You do need a certain number of stars to unlock new worlds, and stars are earned from...

    Stargate SG-1

    Not to go too off-topic, but I wonder sometimes if Amazon will bring back The Expanse in a few years with the actors older to do the post time-skip final books. Ending the show after the Marco arc wasn't particularly satisfying.

    I also recently played Shinobi : Art of Vengeance. It's available on PS4/PS5, Xbox, Switch 1/2 and PC. It was made by the same team that did the excellent Streets of Rage 4, with beautiful drawn graphics, smooth animations and responsive gameplay. I enjoyed Streets of Rage 4 but Shinobi Art...

    Finally finished Yoshi & the Mysterious Book. As I said in my early impressions, it's a very cute and whimsical game and it didn't look very deep in the early previews and announcement videos. However, it took me over 50 hours to 100% it, there's a LOT of levels (you have six worlds with six...

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    I don't really watch any streamers, or rather not their streams, I'll watch on Youtube after the fact usually. I generally close the chat window because I too find it insufferable, but it depends on the game too, and some channels have a really slow casual chat that's not full of obnoxious...

    Nintendo Switch 1 and 2

    I agree it was very frustrating, but part of me also thinks it made me play the game differently and made it a bit more interesting and challenging because I'm usually the kind of guy that uses one weapon for a whole game or at least a small selection of weapons/items, but BOTW's weapon system...

    Nintendo Switch 1 and 2

    BOTW was Myamoto being blown away by Skryim and wanting to make his own version of it in the Zelda universe. The end result came too late to break any new ground and it had some features that made it both frustrating (weapons breaking as mentioned) and not really feel like a Zelda game (little...

    Nintendo Switch 1 and 2

    I've been thinking for years they should re-release A Link Between Worlds on Switch using the same engine they made Link's Awakening and Echoes of Wisdom with. I'd also like A Link to the Past with the same engine, but the art style of SNES pixels hasn't aged a day, I still find it beautiful.

    Nintendo Switch 1 and 2

    You may not have liked Metroid Dread, but the same studio also did Samus Returns, a very good Metroid 2 remake on 3DS. That's more what I had in mind when I said give them the Zelda 2 remake personally. As for Ocarina of Time, I played the 3DS version and it was indeed an upscaled remaster...

    Nintendo Switch 1 and 2

    Ocarina of Time remake sounds like an obvious money printing machine (and it WILL print money), but I'll admit I'm not sure what I want from it. If they're going for a 1 to 1 remake with modern graphics, then the game will be done in a few hours because every Zelda fan has played it dozens of...

    The Acolyte

    The other day I watched The Empire Strikes Back on Disney+, just the one. It ends and D+ goes "Hey since you liked this, you'll probably like The Acolyte" and was about to load it up. Return of the Jedi was the second suggestion after The Acolyte.

    Resident Evil Veronica

    Remake the game where you shoot blacks, or remake the game where Claire calls the villain a crossdressing freak. I bet that must have been a fun brainstorming session at Capcom HQ.

    Did someone put a curse on the Buffy cast or something? That's three stars dead in 2 years.

    Nostalgia is the only driving factor to get people into seats these days. Young people don't go to the theater except to see horror movies.

    Stargate SG-1

    I love Stargate SG-1 (and the Stargate film), I've seen some of Atlantis and never watched Universe but I know what they're about and will watch them eventually. However, I can't really imagine another direction for this franchise.. I mean, SG-1 already used a LOT of various mythologies, then...

    The Mandalorian & Grogu (2026)

    As I said in a previous post, the toy manufacturers have long since adapated their lines to what works. Hasbro and LEGO, the two main Star Wars stuff manufacturers, are focusing mostly on the original trilogy, a little less on the prequels, and a little on the current flavor of the month (Maul...

    Season 2 trailer if you want to see what it looks like (not really any spoilers for season 1 in this, it's mostly snippets of action scenes but you'll get a taste of the art style and animation)

    Devil May Cry

    I couldn't find any threads about this TV series on Netflix. I watched the first season out of curiosity because I enjoyed the games (never played the dumb reboot though), and it was decent, the character of Dante was pretty much the same as the games but it was a mostly original story. I...

    The Mandalorian & Grogu (2026)

    Depends on how expensive going to the theater is for you I'd say. It's not really a must-see-right-now, I liked the Mandalorian series and I wasn't particularly hyped or excited about this movie, so I could totally have waited to see it on Disney+ in 6 months or whatever. For us it was an...

    The Mandalorian & Grogu (2026)

    I can't honestly say I noticed a difference in the quality of direction between this and The Force Awakens which is JJ Abrams' best Star Wars work (not a high bar) but of course this kind of thing is probably quite subjective and I'm admittedly not some kind of cinema school graduate. To me...

    The Mandalorian & Grogu (2026)

    Went to see it today with some friends and their kids and the wife and teenage kid. Overall everyone liked it, despite only our family having seen the TV series so it confirms that you don't really need to know much about the Mandalorian to appreciate this movie. That said, despite not having...
