    I mean if you could get a 250 ping on dialup, you were rocking it. Think about just how much better you probably were having to compensate for the lag back in the day. Kids these days now have 18ms pings and shit, and you used to have to play quake in the dark before school during the winter...

    The Cycle

    Well color me intrigued. That's a nice trailer too, because I don't really know what the hell's going on but I'm interested enough that I want to watch the movie. I can honestly say I'm pretty excited about this one. Will it be a stinker or phenomenal, who knows but at least I'm interested...

    The original PlanetSide to me is still probably the best. Vanu Sovereignty, Emerald server, dual mag riders and jump jet Maxx builds for base assault. We had it dialed in, and it really was some of the best PVP MMO related stuff that I remember playing.

    My high school buddy who got me into playing UO had an apartment at one point in Brenham, and that summer between I guess my freshman and sophomore year of college, I got my old job at Taco Bell. I would get off work and go to his place and would play UO lan party style. I'd bring a bunch of...

    Obsession (2026)

    I haven't watched it yet, and it's on my list, but I might have to figure out how to see it sooner rather than later.

    When I worked at Taco Bell in high school, we would get off work at like 1:00 or 2:00 a.m., and always stay up for a couple of hours doing dial-up Duke Nukem. It was glorious because nobody was going to call your house in the early morning and kick you off. Nothing was worse than in the thick...

    The Transformers: The Movie 40th Anniversary | In Theaters September 17

    There was a VHS video compilation of all of Weird Al's music back in the 80s or early 90s. We used to rent it as kids all the time because if you got a new release you got a free old movie and that was a good backup choice if you weren't going to find some B horror movie from Full Moon.

    Incomplete Chairs (2025)

    That whole scene where Frank starts regrowing is still pretty amazing for practical special effects, and holds up to this day.

    Was it Frank's heart when it was under the floorboards? I don't remember a heart ripping scene, but there was that little beating heart when the dad spilled blood up in the attic.

    Incomplete Chairs (2025)

    Yeah, I just can't do the torture porn stuff. It's funny because I rewatched the director's cuts of Hellraiser one and two not long ago and the stuff in there doesn't bother me, despite the fact that they're gory. It's the hyper realistic stuff that I just can't do anymore.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Yeah, I'm pretty sure there's a console command to set the stage for quests. You probably have to try to find the ID tag for it though.
