    Dune - Space Fascists and Sand Penises

    Heretics must be the one where Duncan Idaho gets super powers of sex so that he can go and have orgies with the Order of Matre or whatever the all-female collective is called. Should have just made Duncan Idaho immortal instead of reviving him a hundred times. IIRC Chapterhouse was released in...

    Avatar 3 (2025)

    Good old Jimmy C needs to give us a Future War movie to bring Terminator full circle. Yeah, I know T2 turns it into an open spiral where they maybe prevent Judgment Day, but T1 had us on the way to a closed loop. The Terminator Resistance video game is the closest thing we have to a T3 that...

    Metroid Prime 4:Beyond

    On Tuesday I've got the day entirely off and am going to take a swing at a Prime 4 marathon to try and get the game down, considering how little time I've had for it. Is 12 hours a pretty accurate guess at runtime? I've heard as low as 10 hours and as high as 18 hours, but 12 seems to be the...

    Dune - Space Fascists and Sand Penises

    Are Heretics and Chapterhouse worth reading or should one stop with Book 4? I hate unresolved cliffhangers and I know Book 6 ends that way. If Book 7 existed then of course I'd go all the way to the end, but as it is I get the impression 4 is the best stopping point to avoid frustration. Also...

    Metroid Prime 4:Beyond

    Doesn't Myles chirp in regularly during the desert section? (Which is I think later? Unless that's in the first world and I haven't seen it yet) I've only played the first world (most of it, I think) and while Myles didn't annoy me as much as I expected, he IS intrusive, and it's difficult to...

    Metroid Prime 4:Beyond

    Everywhere else that we've seen Metroids pop up, they were in some sort of containment / being used as weapons in their base form. With one exception: the Impact Crater in Metroid Prime, which had base form Metroids as well as Fission (split into two when attacked) and Hunter (base with a...

    For a split second I processed this as Fred Sanford somehow won.

    Metroid Prime 4:Beyond

    The timeline goes: Metroid > Metroid Prime series (all of them) > Metroid 2 > Super Metroid > Metroid Other M > Metroid Fusion > Metroid Dread The only real reason to have the Metroid Primes all set before Metroid 2 was so they could bring back Metroids as an antagonist (since they get...

    EQ TLP 2024 Teek (Random loot) & Tormax (Traditional) #neckbeardnostalgia

    Just gonna take a moment to appreciate how cool Epic 2.0s are. What's the best-looking Epic 2.0? Personally I'd say either Paladin, Ranger, Berserker, or Monk. All of these are sick. Double Ranger 2.0s looks insane. For Epic 1.0s I'd probably give the duke to Warrior: Ranger 1.0 and...

    Metroid Prime 4:Beyond

    Definitely play this on Quality Mode rather than Performance. It still runs in 60 FPS and looks WAY nicer. Ridiculously good-looking game. Probably the best-looking game ever published by Nintendo. The graphical fidelity actually looks modern and the art direction is great too. ...most of the...

    Metroid Prime 4:Beyond

    Only in flashbacks, huh? Well that's disappointing, considering we see it in the trailer. Anybody playing this? I might not have much time for it until the weekend but I'll at least give it a couple hours this afternoon if I can.

    Diablo II - Resurrected

    Possibly related - This looks like some sort of marketing for a new Diablo game.

    Metroid Prime 4:Beyond

    Yeah I'm also wondering WTF is up with the suit. It looks like something out of Tron. Making her a mute when she has all these guys yapping at her was also a choice

    Metroid Prime 4:Beyond

    Didn't preorder, I guess we'll see if I'm able to pick one up tomorrow as a walk-in. Asked GameStop about a midnight launch, sounsed like that sort of thing doesn't happen anymore.

    Metroid Prime 4:Beyond

    I'd love to see a 3D version of Super Metroid using the Metroid Prime engine. Pretty much the only remake of Super that would actually be worthwhile to do because it'd be so different (no Mercury Steam 2.5D remake of Super, TY) At this point given how rare Metroid games are and all, it feels...
