I have cracked a 360 controller out of anger. On a little part and it never affected the controller at all. Threw it down a bit too hard and hit my table. Never a game though. But anger issues are another matter entirely of course. But to get up, eject a disk, and then break it? If this was a court room, that wouldn't be considered accidental. They'd need to go get some professional help.

Do you own a PS4 or Xbox One yet?
Matt Bellamy replied to H222G981's topic in Japanese Entertainment
That's probably for the best, especially if you're a Sonic fan... -
I personally think not. He's done a little growing up, and has probably realized that Sho killing his teammates was a result of them being jerks, and vengeance for that is not very honorable, especially when Sho has saved Aptom from certain doom. I could honestly see Aptom sacrificing himself to protect Sho if it came to that now. Both Aptom and even Agito have both seemed to realize that Sho is the example to follow, and both of them have been doing things wrong. Aptom would probably never admit to any of that... But his actions in battle would.

Do you own a PS4 or Xbox One yet?
Matt Bellamy replied to H222G981's topic in Japanese Entertainment
No option for both? For shame! Fortunately for you, I will fix that for two reasons: 1. Because I have THE POWER, and I am going to horribly abuse it because... 2. I own both Though, you did not specify as to which system that is owned, only that they own one or the other. I play my Xbox One much more than my PS4 simply because I prefer the controller. I only one one PS4 game currently, and that is Bloodborne. And it is awesome. I mean, even with the PS3, I only ever got exclusives for it. I must have something like 50-60 X-Box 360 games... But maybe 10-15 PS3 games. -
The Guyver is pretty much "Anti-Deity" as it explains almost everything regarding human creation as " because jerk Aliens" And I think Salkafar said it best when he noted: Of course, there is a higher power that directed events: Takaya himself

I am definitely more of a pessimist. Not to say I don't have optimism in smaller doses, in certain situations. But that comes from a life that has had too many broken promises and failed decisions. I'm not really a Negative person though. I just tend to look at a lot of things from a more pessimistic or "realistic" view as I sometimes refer to it as. But I thankfully find that it's that view that allows me to be pleasantly surprised a lot more when things do go well, or better. I find that keeps me more grounded, and much less likely to be actually get sad or disappointed when something fails badly.

Human for sure... But ONLY I admit, because what I know about Chronos and their dealings as an outsider to the world. As a citizen of Guyvers Earth though? With all the propaganda? It would be a lot harder choice to be sure. I mean, they did just bring World Peace technically. And the offer to make yourself better genetically? That is pretty enticing.

Gaming Researching a game before you buy it?
Matt Bellamy replied to H222G981's topic in Japanese Entertainment
With Games, I am slightly different than movies. With Movies, if I see one or two trailers for a movie, and I like what I see, I will usually stop caring about watching any more, as I am already planning on seeing it, and watching too many trailers could spoil some plot. However, with games, I will watch cinematic trailers all day... But it doesn't do anything for me other than hype. I need gameplay trailers before I can really make a decent choice. So I end up watching a lot of trailers/footage of games. There has been too many times where cinematic trailers have hyped a game... only for the game to be a shitty mobile, or just plain poor game. Games are usually always at least 3-4 times more than a movie ticket, and while some have lots ( and I mean LOTS) of hours of enjoyment... But some are so short that it feels like a waste of money. Which is one of the biggest reasons why I like purchasing physical copies of games from a store... I can bring them back and at least get SOME of my money back. -
Snakepit Power Ranger costumes!
Matt Bellamy replied to PrimalNemesis's topic in Japanese Entertainment
Actually, now that I look at the images more... The Kiba costume is most likely unfinished. If you look at the other guy wearing the green, he is still using classic gloves, and not the ones JDF uses. My guess is only the body suit was done. Not even the chest armor was new. Likely, they had not had Aniki Cosplay make new armor.I would now very much like to see it completed. -
Snakepit Power Ranger costumes!
Matt Bellamy replied to PrimalNemesis's topic in Japanese Entertainment
Here's the best part! The video that Jason David Frank USES the suit! It looks REALLY good in motion, and JDF is still in top form. My favorite little bit of geeky info though? Is that actor Jay Tavare reprises his role as Vega from the Van Damm Street Fighter movie. I mean, how totally geeky/awesome is that? -
Nintendo Code-Named "NX" Announced.
Matt Bellamy replied to H222G981's topic in Japanese Entertainment
Even though this isn't a rumor, as Nintendo has confirmed it... It basically should be treated like a rumor, with a lot of speculation, as Nintendo has done this before, and screwed up badly. Currently they have confirmed that we will NOT be seeing anything on the NX at E3 this year (June 16-18). So it's really to early to say ANYTHING about it. Because Nintendo hasn't either. It is literally nothing other than a name at this point. -
Say hello to the newest console - Nvidia Shield.
Matt Bellamy replied to H222G981's topic in Japanese Entertainment
Meh. Pointless unless they can get good exclusives. My friend has a portable Nvidia Shield, and it is a great little device, that is best used for emulation (great even. If I didn't just buy a new PC, I'd have picked on up). But as a console? Even for that price point, it is still better to spend more, and get a better system, with a lot more features. Plus, there is the other big elephant in the room: PC gaming. It's the " I can do everything you can, and better... If you put enough money into me." It really makes no sense at this point, until it can score some exclusives that might help. And that will be the ONLY way it can actually "Compete" with the big 3. (much like the guy in the video, I agree that the Wii U is in a class of its own) -
People who literally take gaming seriously.
Matt Bellamy replied to H222G981's topic in Japanese Entertainment
It sadly is the culture that has arisen around "TV/Game Parenting". Younger people these days are much more likely to be spoiled, bratty, and moody than in the past, because parenting is not the same as it was when I, or even my parents generation was little. They are used to getting their way with everything, and as soon as someone changes that, it's a huge shift and they can't handle it. Kids are being left in front of TV's, Computers, Tablets etc... so that their parents don't have to put up with them. They use them as a means to calm their kids down, and keep them distracted. When you do that for so long ( ie years), it takes a horrible toll on a childs mind, and it becomes their obsession. Then, when the same parents, who didn't care to properly raise their children decide to take away their obsession, the kids go berserk because they can't mentally handle the fact their obsession has been ripped from their hands. My brother is currently having this problem with his daughter, who is only 3. She has her own iPad ( an older model they had when they upgraded), and would not even eat dinner sometimes unless she had a movie playing at the kitchen table. Thankfully, now that she is getting older, and playing with actual toys, she doesn't depend on the ipad, so they are hopefully trying to get her away from it as much as possible... And not make the same mistake with his son. -
Cheating for yourself is fine. Just so long as it does not affect other people. Like in a vs game or an online game. This I cannot condone at all. I tend to try not to cheat the first time I run through a game, but later runs I might throw a cheat or two on. Some for fun, other because of frustration or just to make it easier. Especialy when I jump back into old snes/ps1 RPG's and just want to play for the story. Max lvl, infinite hp, max money, no random battles... etc. As for the PS3 cheating... I would NOT recommend it AT ALL. A ton of games you might cheat with, have onlien playability. IF you get reported for cheating, many bad things can happen: - Ban from the game servers - Ban on your current account from Sony - Sony making your console ONLY play offline. Even with other accounts. They can, and WILL do any of the 3. You may OWN the system, but you LICENSE software, and are subject to their rules. For example... I see Borderlands 2 listed in that cheat list. If you bring your cheated character online, they can ban hammer you, and you have no one to blame but yourself. This is also why Rockstar are banning GTA5 accounts because of cheats used online. You are free to use any mods or cheats so long as you stay offline. But as soon as you cheat online: BANNED. It's why everybody should actually READ the agreements they accept when they sign in on their consoles.

Haha... Wow. So bad. Granted, I am NOT the targeted audiencefor these shows, but man... Awful. Way to run decent characters into the ground DC! They need to give all of DC's licenses to Bruce Timm. Movie and TV. He knew what t do with their characters.

It's not a problem at all. The issue here is that no one else is doing it. So people bitch and whine that they can't find free stuff. However the Advocacy decides to release their stuff is up to them. And as the only one releasing it, they can do it how they want. If they don't do it, literally, no one else is, so it won't be available freely anyway. So it's a moot point. If another group picked it up, and started releasing chapters, then the Advocacy way of doing it would indeed make less sense. If the people of Reddit, haters, or whatever, REALLY want the manga translated, they should stop bitching about how the Advocacy does it, and try and convince someone else to do it.

How many hours a week do you spend gaming?
Matt Bellamy replied to H222G981's topic in General 'whatever'.
All depends if I just bought a new game. Then those hours shoot up to about 40-60. Without a new game though, it definitely drops to 10-20. -
Snakepit Power Ranger costumes!
Matt Bellamy replied to PrimalNemesis's topic in Japanese Entertainment
I like them. Especially the new shield/armor parts for the Green. And Jason David Frank filled out the suit well. The white ranger suit on the other hand... Not as much... As they didn't change the armor at all, and it just seem like a dirty version of the suit. Not enough contrast between the different colored parts. I do like how they used gold trim for the seams... But it doesn't stand out that much in the outdoors picture. The gloves and boots could have used a touch up too. -
Yet...another Spider- Man Reboot in the works.
Matt Bellamy replied to H222G981's topic in Japanese Entertainment
This has been known for a while now, and really was inevitable when Marvel and Sony announced the plan officially. I have faith that Marvel will do a decent job on it. They pretty much have creative control over it, and have not failed to entertain so far. And while I have no problem with them starting out with an actual teenager... You have to remember... BOTH previous Spider-Man franchises had them in high school to start. This is nothing new. Only this time, they are hiring a more age appropriate actor, not an adult who looks young(ish), and will probably focus a bit more on the actual school/Spider-man issues, rather than just be a setting for a scene or two. Plus, if you look at the actor they mentioned, Asa Butterfield, he is already 18 years old, so if they make him slightly younger, by the second or third movie (because you know they will) he will be "Collage Peter". And while Sony is still continuing with their Sinester Six movie, this is probably the best for ol Web Head. Even if we have to put up with another reboot. Plus, the current rumors are that it will not be an origin movie, and that Spidey will already be established, since he will be appearing in Captain America: Civil War. We might just get a flashback to the origin, and move on with the plot. -
I would hope that if he knew what we were saying, that it would get some kind of reaction... If only to maybe let him know that we like the series... But he's clearly not keeping up with basic standards of his colleagues or the industry. I have a feeling he's only being allowed to continue because of seniority. This would not fly at all in something like Shonen Jump. He should very aware that he is VERY lucky that they are still allowing him to put out whatever he does.
-
Same complaints as before... Doesn't seem like there is much plot movement, and now its only characters we have not seen in a while reacting to old events... The dialogue could prove me slightly wrong... But we'll see.

Dark Souls Dark Souls 2 Bloodborne I whined, screamed and punched my couch while on my way through these games. They can be so hard and frustrating, especially when they don't communicate very well on how somethings in the game work. Yet they are some of my favorite games of all time.

Just picked up my new gaming PC... I have joined the "PC Master Race"... but will still most likely pick up games for the XBox One and PS4... because reasons. Core i7-4790K @4.00GHz Geforce GTX 970 16 GB DDR3 250GB SSD 3 TB HD

I think the hate more has to do with the fact that we KNOW they could do better. But it seems like they don't want to copy all of Marvel's playbook, but still want all the money.It just screams of a spoiled brat who has seen a young upstart beat him out in a contest and screams " I CAN DO THAT TOO" but without realizing WHY he lost. For example, it feels more like they are throwing out all the criticism that man of Steel had (too dark), and amping it up, instead of trying to make it better. The whole atmosphere behind Warner bros. decisions just don't seem to make much sense at the moment. Maybe it will become more clear once this movie is released, but until then, speculation is all we have... And the current teasers for it aren't doing it much good. I mean, look at the new Fantastic Four. People have been talking drenn about it for probably over a year with the little bits of info they put out. It's first teaser was very meh and not that impressive. It's newest trailer has put a more positive spin on the movie so far. If the next BvS trailer is great, maybe the talk will turn positive. But so far, they are not giving us much to go with.
