Starfox never did it for me like Space Harrier. I’m not sure why. The primitive 3D maybe. Space Harrier creature design is just plain bizarre and intriguing.
I love Space Harrier. There are a handful of other third-person, on-rails shooters (Sin and Punishment), but nothing recent that I’m aware of.
Also, Bangai O on Nintendo DS is insanely fun. I can’t think of any other games where slowdown is a necessary mechanic.
Sexy Parodius is a bit sketchy, yes. But, it’s easily the most-fun shmup I’ve ever played. The music is fantastic, too. I’ve managed to 1cc the game, but I’ve never beaten the bonus stage which is just so ridiculously difficult, I question whether it’s even possible without a very specific strategy or something.
Unfortunately, the best version is the arcade one, and MAME doesn’t do the best job with it. Still playable, though.
Nope. Ublock Origin is the only plugin I use. It’s not a regular thing anyway. The loading problem that is. I’ve only had very intermittent success with Chromecasting within Firefox. It just doesn’t work most of the time. That is most likely due to Chromecast being tied to whatever remains of Google Home.
I can’t be 100% sure that it was the fault of Firefox or Ublock Origin, but I’ve definitely had times when videos wouldn’t load or would load excessively slowly. My Internet was otherwise working entirely fine at the time.
Also, Chromecast refuses to work from Firefox. The icon you click to start it up just won’t appear. It always appears in Chrome no problem.
Fantastic food. Entirely too rapey.
Pop quiz: four of the top five most anticipated games are Doom, Gears of War, Perfect Dark, and Assassin’s Creed: what year is it?
I guess it depends on if it is a case of there having had been 97 of 100 ingredients having been naturally derived and now only 91 of those ingredients are such. Which admittedly seems unlikely.
I can see that, but the plural “ingredients” still makes my gut say it should be fewer.
Have we just forgotten about the word “fewer” entirely at this point?
My older sister was supposed to get my name, but she was a she. It would have been fairly unique at her age. I came along five years later and got it at the height of its popularity, as a result there were three of us in my grade six class.
2027-2032 is going to be a wild ride.
Robert Eggers’ The Lighthouse is set next to a real life lighthouse in my hometown. I used to go crawl around on the rocks so much so that I recognize some of them in the trailer. I haven’t watched it yet since I don’t find much time for movies anymore. I’m really looking forward to it. Horror movies also happen to be my thing, but my to-watch list is huge at this point.
Haha! I’m still waiting for a decent sale on Spider-Man 1.
Getting Cicret Bracelet vibes from this one.
Nope. And I remember a time when there weren’t any ads. Or images for that matter. And I had to run software in DOS. Things are definitely both better and worse, now.
Ehh. What’s the average age around here? I’m guessing it wasn’t the youth that migrated from Reddit.
My hometown was in Canada’s top-ten communities in decline for years. These days, it’s got two-thirds the population it used to, the streets are full of deer, and quite a few farmers’ fields have turned into forests. Almost everyone my age that I knew moved away long ago. Going back is always shocking.
Ahh yes, definitely. I should have said that isn’t strictly a traditional shmup. Bangai O definitely has many elements of shmups, but the level design and many of the mechanics are quite unique to it.
