PS Plus is awful due the sole fact that nobody ever wants to use it for the sales but for the online which should be free.


I never liked Xbox selling their online features but Atleast their servers aren't hot garbage and when it gets hack, it only lasts at most a full day before fixing itself while PS has to wait over a damn week to fix its issues.


PS4 is a great system and so is the Vita but for **** sakes their online is worst in the industry. Yes, worst than Nintendo's whose a decade behind but is acceptable due to not having to pay to use online mode in games
Id take paying for a modern day service over Nintendo's that's a decade behind any day.

The crystal in the sun & moon logo looks similar to the one in ReBurst that allows for fusion.
This + Ash's Greninja has lead to people thinking.
I have a feeling that the Ash-Greninja thing won't stay anime exclusive but I don't think it's based off an obscure non-canon manga that many called generic and mixed feeling.

So I just found out that one of my favorite Indie characters is in a crossover Go-Karting game inspired by Mario Kart!


Might pick up the game to try it out tonight. I hope they can get Shovel Knight, Shantae, or Undertale representation in there sometime down the line. It's still early access, so they'll be adding more to it. This game looks like it has some good potential to me.

She's also the only character in that game I recognized.

So anyone who has finished S2 of RWBY has seen the best scene in the show.


But have you seen it done by Cinder's crew, Penny and Ironwood, and the ****ing Grimm?


Yes I know this is old but it's new to me

Well I'll upload it and if anyone wants to give me criticism I'd appreciate it, thanks!

I do like the simplicity of it though I have really grown to prefer layouts that are more minimal. That said it doesn't seem like it'd be too distracting from the stream itself which is good.

Been playing Maiu Mallard in Cold Shadow (PC version). Man, it pretty hard. I wish the controls were more responsive too.

But man, dat game's soundtrack:

What do you think about this?
http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/792673-pokemon-omega-ruby/73361864

"#789. - Dark/Psychic - the boxart legend for Pokémon Moon
#790. - Fire/Ice - the boxart legend for Pokémon Sun

#766. - Pure Flying Hummingbird - the bird we've seen in the trailer, evolves into Flying/Electric

#753 and #754 are ice wolves that will probably be version exclusives to Moon
#756 and #757 are "morning sun" bears that will probably be version exclusives to Sun

#770. ends with "ia" just like "Nymphia", - its the dragon eeveelution

#771 - strange phenomon happened in 2012 when millions of Pea Crabs washed ashore in Hawaii

#724 and #725 are seemingly cockroach's. Squalid means "dirty", and screenshots revealed we have a Motel Inn with a Slaking as the mascot. That implies the workers are "lazy". Imagine a dirty motel with wild bug/dark roaches

The reason why their aren't any new starters on the list is because they're going to celebrate 20 years of Pokémon by allowing us to choose any starter!"


Also #773 and #774 are dolphins, pretty common in Hawaii.

It makes some sense.

The pepper lives!

I'll start looking into Sun & Moon rumors once they decide to actually show off a Pokémon first (not counting Magearna).

They're putting a LOT of eggs in the hawaii basket.
Fire/Ice doesn't... make sense for a Sun Pokemon.
AND A PURE FLYING TYPE?! WHAT IS THIS? SKY PLATE ARCEUS?

To be fair:

1) Ice makes sense to a degree. Ice could be a reference to to coldness of space and the the sun rays must go through the coldness to reach earth. Because of the heat, it is able to get past these and create the heat we have on the planet.
So it's a little weird, but I could see it.

2) If this is still considered a game tied to Kalos, it's not out of the question for us to have the same starters. Especially if Delphox, and chestnaught got poke human forms as well.

This isn't likely but could still happen.

And Hawaii may not be confirmed, but there is way to much evidence towards it right now.

That Habenero Pokemon rumour is so fake it's ridic.

GF aren't going to give us so many unique typings in one game.

And they usually have like... 1 or 2 Pokemon based off the region max.

Well, considering that the Sun Pokemon is the Thermodynamic Pokemon in the list, it makes some sense.
You act like all the Pokemon types makes sense, example: Lugia, Malamar, Gyarados, Solrock, Stunfisk, Helioptile, Flygon, Lucario, Gothitelle, etc.

It's just speculation, for fun.

Except for the fact the Woodpecker pokemon (I am 100% positive it's a Woodpecker) that was teased pretty much disproves the list...Only way I can see it being plausible at this point if it's an incomplete/unfinished list...

There are a lot of things that make sense about this list, such as Dolphins and Coconut Crabs, Fire/Ice does make sense because the Sun helps control temperature and Fire and Ice represent two extremes of temperature....but as of now until we get any further evidence, I don't have much faith in this list at all...

I was skeptical in the beginning (albeit hopeful that it was real) of the list simply because of the Pure flying type; discounting Arceus, it wasn't until Gen 5 that we got one which turned out to be a Legendary pokemon, that wasn't even a bird...unless they had some other typing, ALL birds were Normal/Flying...This Woodpecker, or even if it did turn out to be a hummingbird would end up being Normal/Flying also...There's no reason why GameFreak will suddenly add a pure flying type bird pokemon after they've gone 6 generations without it...

I still want it to be real because of all the potentially awesome pokemon it could add, but I don't think it is...

Who knows? That being said, I'm more than sure that there will be new starters, even if they allow us to choose any starter.

As for the Pokemon, I don't exactly see how a Fire/Ice would work for a Sun Pokemon. But who knows?
-Would like to see another Dark/Psychic though. Despite them being rather underwhelming battle-wise, I liked Inkay and Malamar(I've always found interest in the more sinister Pokemon and I love the fact that they actually went that route with Malamar in the anime unlike most sinister Pokemon).
-I could see how a Hummingbird would work as a Flying/Electric-type, considering how fast those little guys can flap their wings.
-Ice wolves have always been one that people wanted as a Pokemon, so no surprise seeing it on a "leak."
-Morning Sun Bears? Well, considering we already have a Brown bear, a Polar Bear and a Panda, I guess we have to go somewhere different, but what exactly would a "Morning Sun" Bear represent?
-Another eeveelution would be unsurprising, other than that it would break the "Every 2 gens" pattern.

Also, I just realized after looking at that list that there's only 3 sets of Fairy Pokemon there. The 2 Fairy/Poison-types, the 3 Fairy/Flying-types and Magearna, the Steel/Fairy-type. So I'm leaning more towards fake.

Yeah, me too actually. It seems that Freedom Planet is the biggest IP represented in the game at the moment. I also recognized that Runbow was in there. I'm sure that anybody who's really into Indie gaming would probably recognize a lot of these.

The whole fusion thing found in X and Y might be a reference of Bill being fused with a Clefairy in the Generation I games. I don't see how they would refer to a manga that wasn't liked by many, especially RéBURST.

We'll see though.

So, here I thought I'd have a good day. Everything was going fine, we were having a really fun day at universal studious. Even got to visit the new Harry Potter section because of the soft opening... But.... Of course.... Right at the end, right at the end.... We got ice cream, everything's going swell right?

Well.... I start eating my icecream cone and right off the bat he tells me I'm eating it the wrong way and that I'm for a world of hurt if I don't start eating it the right way. Okay, fine enough, so I just start licking it from the bottom so it doesn't melt. But then, as time goes on and on, he starts taunting me. Belittling me. Saying things like "This is how exactly it's suppose to look!", "HAHAHAHA, this kid", "Wow, 16 years old and doesn't know how to lick an ice cream cone" etc.

It started giving on my nerves to the point where I threw the delicious thing away, because **** enjoying your treat, right?

But that's not what I'm talking about, it goes further, he continues to go on and on about me. And at one point I say "You know what? You're just a terrible parent". And then, as he's yelling at me, he keeps on jolting at me like he's going to strike at me, so I eventually just grab his neck out of pure fear.(Keep in mind, I'm a little twig, while my Dad's a huge body of muscle.) We go on and argue for awhile longer. Until we just end up leaving. Not a single word to one another the whole car ride home....

So uh, yeah, I'm gonna go practice my Ice Cream licking skills.

Two pandas actually (don't forget Spinda), but Sun bears specifically are real animals, they are primarily found in asia...and would actually support a Singaporian influence to the region which is one possibility people have been talking about...
That tongue tho...they could make decent fire type pokemon...

My thoughts on the last few pages:
Can't wait till Source Gaming makes general news too. Because right now it feels like it should be called Smash Source. It's like mew2kings channel 'most valuable gaming' which is even worse. But keep up the good work till then and continue your fight with your rights!

Pokemon- Human fusion sounds interesting but I personally don't really want it to happen. I'll need to see how it looks first. I want my first Poke game not to be too weird.

Miyamoto needs to retire. My opinion since like, 2 years ago. Or at least stick to Pikmin and small, budget-titles. He is no good in the current age. His decisions and certain opinions feel like they are from the early 2000's at the latest. He is the main reason why the next Starfox will make the series stall to thier potential. - personally think it's actually a small step backwards.... Oh, I don't see anything wrong with Krystal. If you do, then I believe you looked at some furry things you shouldn't have.
Smash has had TOO much misinformation. We are almost done cleaning it up :) Got a loooooong Brawl interview that we should probably translate, and some Famitsu Columns but most of the major things have been addressed. Thinking about how to reach a wider audience, and carry the tradition of Source Gaming to other franchises. Don't be surprised if we become a gaming-research organization with a focus on fixing misconceptions.

Oh as I was typing this, a magazine I ordered just came in the mail. Rumor has it is a contains an interview that everyone missed :). Going to read it now and see if it's worth translating.

a Gen 7/8 3rd Legendary Mascot Pokemon
















?









what bosses do you agree and what bosses do you disargee?

BTW by ''Boss + Boss'' i mean you will fight the first form then after you do a bunch of levels you will fight the alternate form later
Just like how you fight Ridley first and Meta Ridley later

Edit: i added Grand Doomer or Dyna Blade, Thunder Roc and replaced Scolipede with Yveltal or Shadow Lugia because Scolipede looks too small to be a Boss it would look more like a Big Emeny instead of a Boss

The malmar in the show was pretty good. I wonder where they are going with it.

And here's a sunbear:


Another point against it, I think:


Well, I still can dream.

Clearly the evil's teams go, is to destroy the Hawaiin ecosystem by introducing non native species to it.
They call it the great migration.

Sounds intriguing! I can't wait if true!

And what are you hinting at with the thread title?
