So I think I found my own personal way of dealing with tilt.

It's just to let myself get mad at the game. To use that anger to motivate me. Before I had tried to suppress that anger and force myself to stay calm, to just tell myself to "adapt" whenever I got hit by something silly. Now I use my anger as a motivation to adapt. It also gets that anger out of my system and makes me feel a lot better after the match is over.

Anyway, thanks to all flowchart Wi-Fi Samus mains for helping me figure that out about myself. Quickplay wouldn't be the same without you guys.

Ok. Part of the reason I got HBO Max was for Looney Tunes. The new ones are great! But the selection of classics is so limited! I kind of expected... ya know... all of them. Or at the very least all the ones that they have sold on DVD and Blu-Ray in the past. And it would be fine if it was just obscure stuff, but there’s obscure stuff a plenty here and some of the most iconic ones are absent. I’m confused and frustrated.

They are adding a second round of classics for Looney Tunes and Popeye later this month. (Edit: June 16 is when they’re supposed to go live)

Maybe more of both iconic and obscure will be included?

The way Tom and Jerry is organized on the other hand... lets just say alphabetical isn’t how I would sort the shorts.

Wait, popeye is on this thing! Are there any other Fleischer cartoons? Can we just get every non-Disney golden age short series on this thing.

Also, thanks for letting me know about the drop later. Super excited. Hopefully there are some Bosko cartoons in there.

Question about the spider man trailer. Who is Miles fighting? They looked like if Silver Sable was a cyborg but I’m assuming that’s not the case considering she was in the last one.

When you're a butcher, but are also tryna stay available.

Looking forward to Supaidaman and Ratcheto and Cruankusu.

Can I call the PS5 a reverse Oreo?

I hate looking for older video games on ebay. Like, I just want the game. I don’t want the Japanese recalled gold coated platinum version which comes with alternate outfits for every character. I just want the game, and I can’t really look anywhere other than ebay since somewhere like facebook marketplace or gamestop wouldn’t have it-

As a collector, education and patience is the key. How badly do you want the game? Is it for an easily pirated system? How often do listings show up? Is the seller using stock/stolen photos and what's their rating? I've lost a lot of money in the past to pirates or just outright not doing my homework.

Also it never hurts to ask the seller if they'd be willing to put up a Make Offer option and eBay Bucks is a nice program to take advantage of. I generally don't buy anything unless a sale is going on.

There are other options than eBay, but a lot of them are interior or don't have the same variety. Sadly eBay is now hiding "best offer" results so I can only expect for prices to be more misleading.

As for old games, I feel I've been lucky with the ones I've been searching for. Except lately I see a lot of factory sealed ones for several hundred dollars. I want the game to play it, not to display it.

It always bugs the crap out of me when I see people complain about prices and it's screen shots of Amazon sealed listings. Not only is it one of the worst sites it buy used games from, the prices are generally worse than even eBay. Fire Emblem Path of Radiance is pretty much the new Earthbound. lol

I have been tempted to go after a few WATA graded games to be honest. Honestly I'd be curious to know what games non-collectors would want sealed if money wasn't an issue. I currently only own one game I plan on keeping sealed/am scared to open.

I think the only time I've seen more sealed/CIB copies than loose is when I was hunting down a copy of Wario's Woods NES. I once bought a rare game and the seller threw in a free sealed copy of it just because they couldn't get rid of it.

Hmm.... interesting.

I actually scored a rare guitar that usually sells for $1500-2000 on eBay, because the seller didn't show pictures of a paint crack, so I bought it for $900 (already a steal) and got a $300 refund since they didn't disclose the blemish. So I got the guitar I had always been prepared to pay $1500 for for $600.

I'm still calling it a wi-fi adapter.

Or the Seto Kaiba.

I was at work for the event so I looked over the summary and watched a few of the trailers. The system looks weird, but Ratchet and Clank and Horizon look great, I'm ecstatic to see Miles heading the next Spider-Man game, and Stray looks interesting. So at the very least there's some games I can look forward to, though it's probably not a day one buy.

Sony confirmed to be Kaiba Corp.

Watched it last night. There are a couple of games that interest me from Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Resident Evil VIII: Village and Progmata.

It's just to let myself get mad at the game. To use that anger to motivate me.

Gooooooooooood

Spider-Man Miles Morales is a remaster and expansion, Sony clarifies

Well darn.

That's disappointing.

 

[Deleted member]

Good morning friends.

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

The new Metroid game is looking really different from what I expected.

Oh thank god I wasn’t the only one who thought that the security guard looked like Samus.

Well darn.

That's disappointing.

I saw this earlier but the wording makes it sound like it's just that the game is built on an enhanced version of Spider-Man PS4.

I want to think Sony wouldn't be so stupid to reveal the game is such a misleading way but this certainly throws doubt on it.

People seem to love that new character from Ratchet & Clank Rifts Apart.

Interdimensional subspecies where females have a tale, just a feminine looking male and now trans lombax are all suggestions people have thrown around for the new character.

Lombax lore and sexual dimorphism will forever fuel fan speculation and debate.

I'd rather have a completely new thing but I'll hold my judgment until I see the result. Some expansions might be as good as individual games.

I even heard the Torna expansion of XC2 is somehow better than the original XC2.

Which sounds quite surreal, ngl.

 

[True Blue Warrior]

Will Miles Morales ever be in the MCU?

I mean, it's not hard to surpass XC2 writing-wise.

It would be cool if It happened.

And I think he was namedropped in Homecoming.

I certainly disagree with that but Torna is still quite enjoyable.

Torna straight up has different gameplay.

Whether that's better or worse is on you.

Oh, I have a sneaking suspicion why, if you know what I mean, hehehe...

Spoiler

She's a well developed character who'd contribute to Ratchet & Clank's lore and cast. It's like my boi for the Mario series
