I mean yeah racism and sexism can be political but saying they're bad is pretty cross culture anymore.

Please be an Operation Genesis spiritual successor

I need to see more, but it looks like a fun concept. Being able to build and manage your own Jurassic World and the species living in it is something I would love to play around with, and just as long as they have a lot of different customization options and it isn't too taxing with the micromanaging it could be a game worth picking up for me.

I'd probably be the worst manager though since I'd bioengineer a bunch of predators, kick out the sightseers, and then let them run loose on the island just to see what happens. Science demands study.


Just watched DBS.
-Zeno clearly only plays Brawl
-Baelifla is back, at least for a couple of minutes
-Goku actually did the manga strat of alternating SSGod and Blue
-Hit reminded Dyspo that Trix is only for kids
-CHAMPA WITH A ****ING VUVUZELA
-Somewhere... Vegeta probably is still disgusted
-Toppo finally quit on the Justice bull****
-"No good, no evil, only survival"
-Hearing Vados talk is still a bliss
-JirenJustStandingThereMenacingly.jpg

MVP of the week: Hit; his ability to quickly adapt to his opponents patterns can be as useful as his timeskip and pocket dimension powers.

--------

Now I can draw hands and closed fists, nothing spectacular, but progress has been made.
Time to learn another part....

*does the most serious face possible*
*types "how to draw anime boobs" on Google*
Not surprised Toppo has given up on his whole justice spiel. Him and his team has tried to play the hero and what has it gotten them? 7 Members kicked out, one forced to run with his tail between his legs, and their entire universe being the closest to the brink of erasure. The time for honor has passed, it's time to fight as if your backs are to the wall and I'm looking forward to seeing what this more ruthless attitude will do for Toppo and Jiren going forward.

That looks a lot like Operation Genesis 2.

That really excites me.

It's really sad to think that Dead or Alive 5 is probably the closest thing we'll ever get to a new Virtua Fighter...

I am heavily considering getting Dragon Ball Fusions, but if I get one I gotta get 2 copies so I can abuse KF fusions or whatever

It seems the best fusions are through streetpass

Edit: And I can't choose between a Namekian and a Majin. So, if I get 2 I'd have both.

But I can't find used copies. They'd be cheaper

And another afternoon of binging out on Fire Emblem Fates before I start my week of peer counseling is just about done. I brought down Leo with Kaden like I always do, but this time I also raked in some goods by killing Niles and Odin.

Also, I know the game they won last night is preseason, but I HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE the Cowboys!!!!!

I forgot one of my favorite quotes from the first Halo. And its my favorite only because Guilty Spark says it, and when he says it, it cones out perfectly.

"Save his head. Dispose of the rest."

Was that a teabag, LOL

TBH I did it to Metal Sonic during his opening sass and couldn't put my money where my mouth was so I have less than no room to talk
It's squatting.

Because I'd rather flex my muscles.

Oh, Sonic Forces is confirmed to get Xbox One X enhancements. I suppose this retroactively confirms that it will be PS4 Pro enhanced too (though so is Mania so not like there was any doubt).

Only 20 more days until Samus Returns...

Why do I keep torturing myself by watching gameplay?

Not that I'm spoiling myself, since they are all showing the same areas...but man I need this game already...Welp guess I'll continue playing Zero Mission....

Just watched a graphics comparison of Sonic Forces between Switch and PS4 pro.

Of course the lighting is better and the geometry is a bit sharper and not as blurry for the PS4 pro version but in terms of just pure graphics and not all that 4K goodness, there's hardly a difference. Which is really good news for anyone planning on picking up the Switch version. Needless to say, however, is that the game doesn't run as smoothly, half as smoothly in fact. The 30fps is what's a real detriment to the Switch version of the game but considering the Switch version has been in development for less time than the counterparts I imagine they'll smooth that out before release. Maybe not 60fps but I don't think they'll let the frame dips be as noticeable as they currently are.

I'm still on a wait and see basis considering the game doesn't look all that fantastic to me. What with the whole focus on the less than stellar custom character, the honestly boring looking level design (for now), and the general fact that Sonic Team is trying to throw all it's eggs in one basket all kinda points to the game not being great imo. Of course, I'll save my final judgement till the final product is out but as of now I'm far from impressed.

It's actually funny that since Mania came out I've become far more critical of Forces.

The textures and shadows are also quite a bit more pixelated on Switch.

It's really not comparable honestly, the Switch version is basically running in "low-end PC" mode.

Why does Japan not like darker skinned girls?

They tend to be fairly unpopular in polls and such.

Phone glitched. Sorry bout the double post.

Japan favours pure white skin, blonde hair, and blue eyes because to them, that's exotic. It's something a Japanese girl can never naturally be.

It's like how people in North America might prefer a darker skinned Spanish girl or something (don't know what's actually popular there, just saying for the sake of argument) because that's exotic to them. Or indeed, how they might prefer an Asian girl.

Darker skinned girls also tend to have a rougher, more masculine appearance, while modern Japanese culture seems to favour pure femininity.

If I'm getting any version of Forces it's the Switch version because I can't be bothered to buy a PS4 for "muh graphics" when all the games I want are on everything else too and my PC lags hard enough on pixelated games that even the Switch will probably run better.

I don't expect much out of the character creator and I'm not gonna be that prima donna posting Malcom in the Middle images because they stuck their nose up involuntarily. Just give me some decent Modern Sonic gameplay and some silly dress-up and the game meets par.

Switch version is always the correct choice.

I'll probably get the PS4 version of Forces.

I'm not usually a huge stickler when it comes to graphics and framerates, but if there's a better version out there I'll get that one.

Maybe I'll double dip and get the Switch version if I really enjoy the game.
