So guys as mentioned to my friends @JDCabrera , R Rangez and co, by an f you of the higher powers, my laptop hard drive has failed.

So gotta ask if thier are any IT repairmen on here.
The error was a Hard Drive DST Check failure. Yet it was OK on smart. My laptop is an HP model from the early 2010s and well banged it.

I know I'll be able to recover the stuff, just depends on money and all. Hopefully physically.

Hoping you guys can help in some form. I know a few friends know I'm in a bit of deep despair but I'm hoping for something good.

Just fought some laggy as hell Wolf on hazards ON Brinstar Depths.


I hate Quickplay oh my God.
One of my first quickplay matches ever was a laggy, t-bagging Ganon on that very same stage.

After I got the lead I spent the rest of the match circle camping him as Squirtle, and I was laughing as I did it.

Speaking of which, I am not good as PT. He's the worst of my mains, but oddly, I'm finding some success with Charizard over the other 2 mons.

I guess I'm just gonna be a solo Zard main.

I watched the final four episodes of Star Wars: The Clone Wars (the CGI one), since they overlap with Revenge of the Sith in terms of when they take place. I didn't have context for everything, but I enjoyed it, and I'd watch more of the series.

I was suggested by an irl friend of mine to watch at least one or two episodes of the entire show a day so I enjoy the finale better.

I honestly want to follow the tip since I'm obsessed with having context for everything (a main reason why I still haven't played Nier Automata since It seems I need to play the two titles which came before first).

You really, really don't. They're connected sure but it's more of slight nods more than anything, Automata is more or less a stand alone story.

Oh, glad to know then!

I'll try to see if I can buy Nier Automata this year!

Over 100 characters in(and that's including characters I can't get an image of yet), hoo boy. Got some proper images of Epona now. She has mane-like hair, and is one of three characters who can travel to other worlds freely. ...The remake adds like... maybe one or two more at best, depending if you consider that something Colleen can do, and Kiliac's ship allows safe to travel to another world, being the Isle of Skye.

That said, one other weakness of Quest RPG is very very long cutscenes. Something the N64 versions don't have(except the Japanese ending, which the game is done, so it's no big deal. Fun story to enjoy and all).

TWO games before it?

Everyone forgets Drakengaard 3 is a prequel to 1 :yoshi:

I heard great things about the Drakengaard series as well.

Doh apparently It does have a sort of infamous final boss which takes place in the Air and you are going on circles around It hitting their attacks with the right timing.

Also to get the ending that leads into the Nier series, you have to play the game 5 times doing different things :yoshi:

Valve's TF2 team actually added a tribute to Rick May in-game.


The game's composer made a new addition to the for the Official Soundtrack (a rendition of Taps). It'll be playing on the main menu accompanied by the Soldier's image for the whole month of May. That in addition to memorial statues dedicated to Rick May being placed throughout official game maps.

It's bittersweet, of course, but overall this is a really pleasant and heartwarming surprise. I'm glad Valve did this.

Yeah! That was really nice from Valve to deliver this special detail!

As heartwarming as it is, if only they'd crack down on the **** that's slowly killing TF2. Just this year alone in 5 months, the game has had countless bot and exploit problems.

Somewhere out there on this big blue marble
Video footage of JDCabrera and his friends meeting up on Monday to eat pizza:


I saw It on Discord.

I would love to pay for this as I love Square Enix and more to pay charities.

While I currently don't have money after Streets Of Rage 4, I may be able to work out something with my friends this Monday.
If you can't buy the deal, don't feel guilty, spreading awareness is more than enough
Ya'll ever just

Misinput Kamizaee last stock.

One if the worst feelings in the entire game.
No but I've topdecked Kamikaze multiple times. Even in the same match

Then I'll share the news about the bundle with my IRL friends so they can spread the news around Instagram!

Blue Shells are BS. I don’t understand why they expect me to have fun trying to three star every cup when my skill doesn’t matter because random power ups used by the CPUs can ruin my run with nothing I can do to stop them.

No one likes Blue Shells

Unless you're the one throwing them.



Such is the way of rubber-banding AI. If you're in the lead, expect the AI to magically get a Blue Shell.

Except the person throwing them doesn't even get much benefit from them. If you're in 12th place and the 1st place player gets nocked back a little, you're still in 12th place.

Truth is, the only person who enjoys blue shells is the player in 2nd Place.

I usually just thought the alarm and speeding whir sounds of incoming Blue Shell were nothing more than annoying and frustrating.

...But on this track...


...I still get horrible flashbacks and nightmares from my experience with Blue Shells on that dreaded gorge...

Not gonna lie, Dark Gaia would be cool to have in Smash as a boss fight.

You would fight him while on top of the Gaia Colossus. (The giant thing with 7 temples fused.)

Just finished the post game of Trials of Mana.

Had a lot of fun with the game. Played through it with Riesz, Duran and Hawkeye.

Guess I'll get back to FFVIII and DQXI. Hopefully I can make decent progress in them before Xenoblade comes out.

The blue Shell in MK7 was the worst, since you flip over to the side twice, which could pretty much mean you were in a 10 second cutscene if you were drifting near the edge.

Thank God MK8 nerfed them.

I know the Horn destroys them, but can you still do the Mushroom Trick where you can skip the explosion when you activate it at the right time in 8?

Just wanna take a moment to appreciate Archie's Alex Kidd design and how they manage to make him look both cool and hilariously cute
