Topic | If I wanted to get into horror films, what should I watch? |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/18/17 12:54:27 PM #13 | ParaNorman is less horror, and not quite as good as Coraline, but it's by the same team and you'll likely enjoy it if you liked Coraline. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | the PS4 is built like a pile of shit |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/17/17 11:11:44 PM #19 | Yeah it is. Everyone loves to argue that it's some kind of flawless design though. The controller has no battery life because of the giant flashlight on the end of it, the usb ports are trapped between two bars, limiting their usefulness, and the cooling system is a complete embarrassment. GameReviews posted... Why would you even have a PS4 if you don't have PlayStation plus? That's like having a computer without internet. I mean, it is a complete waste of money, especially if you own a PC. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | If I wanted to get into horror films, what should I watch? |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/17/17 10:59:45 PM #2 | I personally don't think horror always needs to be about scares, so keep that in mind with my recommendations. I think most things that qualify as horror are just movies that deal with themes most people find unsettling. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (original) Dead Ringers The Brood The Fly (1986) Eraserhead Suspiria The Shining Psycho (original) Peeping Tom Inland Empire Coraline The Thing (1982) We Need to Talk About Kevin Jaws Perfect Blue Tetsuo: The Iron Man Straw Dogs (original) It Follows Invasion of the Body Snatchers (original) The Wicker Man (original) Audition (I personally don't think it's horror, but many do) The Skin I Live In --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | Who here watched "Get Out"? |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/17/17 10:44:24 PM #22 | I wasn't a big fan, but I still thought it was pretty decent. If you're looking for scares in your horror, best look elsewhere though. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | Hey potd, what games are you looking forward to? |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/17/17 1:51:46 PM #7 | As far as 2017 is concerned: Splatoon 2 Super Mario Odyssey Uncharted: Lost Legacy Dragon Ball FighterZ Cuphead Pyre Danganronpa V3 Valkyria Revolution Yakuza Kiwami Samus Returns The Evil Within 2 Mario x Rabbids The End is Nigh --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | NK vs CN: Avatar: Hey Arnold! vs Courage the Cowardly Dog |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/17/17 9:32:52 AM #9 | Woah, something beat Avatar? CN is back in the game. Courage easily takes this. Hey Arnold was ambitious, but I still didn't like it all that much. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | Finished Breath of the Wild. |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/17/17 9:08:27 AM #17 | The 4 or 5 hours I played of Breath of the Wild were pretty miserable. Granted, I was never the target audience for a game like this, but it's filled with blatantly poor design decisions right out of the gate. First of all, I spent probably 3/4 of my time wandering to get from point A to point B, having to avoid most enemies because the weapon durability system outright destroys any hopes of winning battles with higher level enemies. They just give them near endless health, and on top of that just about everything is capable of killing you in one hit in those first few hours of the game. This forces you to grind out shrines to get more health, which means you have to wander around the open world (which I've already mentioned is way too big and a complete waste of time) This problem is compounded by the fact that your stamina depletes in seconds, forcing you to find roundabout ways to get from point A to point B in what was already an overly lengthy, padded out journey. This quickly becomes the game's biggest issue, as it forces you to choose between stamina, which will help the player waste less of their time traveling, or health, which will allow the player to survive the most basic attacks. In short, it's easily the worst game I've played this year. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | intersteller got a tv ma rating on fx lol |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/15/17 6:21:18 PM #3 | Seems strange, unless it's unedited, which wouldn't make any sense since it's on TV. It's just got a couple F-bombs. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | Have you ever played any of the Danganronpa games? |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/15/17 8:22:05 AM #12 | |
Topic | Do you watch more movies on dvd or blu ray? |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/12/17 11:15:02 PM #8 | I feel like I watch both pretty evenly, just because there's still a ridiculous amount of stuff that isn't on Blu-Ray yet and I already had a large DVD collection before Blu-Rays were even a thing. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | That was a really depressing E3. |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/12/17 11:04:25 PM #18 | I can only assume Nintendo has SOMETHING going on since they have a new system to promote and all. Also Devolver. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | NK vs CN: Avatar: The Last Airbender vs Ed, Edd n Eddy |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/12/17 11:03:29 PM #11 | Ed, Edd, and Eddy was CN's answer to Hey Arnold minus the adults. It's solid, but I wouldn't say it's on the same level as any of the other shows CN has left. Very surprised it's fairing as well as it is right now. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | NK vs CN: Avatar: The Last Airbender vs Samurai Jack |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/12/17 4:56:47 PM #26 | I've never understood why Samurai Jack is so divisive. I expected this to be a beatdown for that reason, but in reality, Samurai Jack could very well be in the top 5 animated TV shows of all time. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |

Pus_N_Pecans 06/12/17 2:56:16 PM #9 | TheSlinja posted... Muffinz0rz posted...t's Street Fighter with DBZ skins (which, again, people will enjoy, but the hype doesn't seem to be matching the reality). Yeah this. This is going to be the first DBZ game I've ever bought --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |

Pus_N_Pecans 06/12/17 8:22:09 AM #20 | pipebomb_phil posted... You'll play as her I believe. Hard pass in that case. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | ArcSys Works Dragon Ball Z is REAL. Marvel vs Capcom is DEAD! |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/11/17 6:19:17 PM #13 | Aksys doesn't disappoint. This looks to easily take the title of best DBZ game. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | Rate that year in gaming ~ Day 1410 ~ 2018 |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/11/17 2:59:40 PM #3 | How did 2017 score lower than any other year this decade? Does everyone on this board only own an Xbox One? --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | how does this ice cube video about racism make you feel |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/11/17 2:48:55 PM #5 | Metal_Gear_Link posted... the only way to stop racism is integration, not proposelly segregating themselves by saying 'you can't have my word' I can't even imagine making a case for the privilege of using racial slurs, let alone comparing the way society frowns upon them to a form of segregation. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | NK vs CN: Avatar: The Last Airbender vs Justice League |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/11/17 10:51:01 AM #11 | Avatar looks like it's got the rest of these on lock if it's not even struggling with Justice League. JL is every bit as great as Batman: The Animated Series. It's one of the very best superhero shows ever made. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | So, I'm eating at Arby's for the first time today, any suggestions? |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/10/17 12:24:55 PM #6 | I usually get the Loaded Italian whenever I go to Arby's. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | Spider-Man 2 vs The Dark Knight |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/08/17 9:24:37 PM #22 | The Dark Knight. Not even close. I wouldn't say The Dark Knight is quite a masterpiece, but it's still head and shoulders above every other superhero movie ever made. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | NK vs CN: The Ren & Stimpy Show vs Teen Titans |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/08/17 9:22:37 PM #22 | Bugmeat posted... Why would that have changed your vote? The question is which you think was better. Not vote for the show that's losing. I feel like they're pretty even. It deserves to be closer than this. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | NK vs CN: The Ren & Stimpy Show vs Teen Titans |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/08/17 8:19:54 AM #11 | I would've voted for Ren and Stimpy if I'd checked the totals first. This one is really close. I love Ren and Stimpy for its complete subversion of what a kid's TV show was supposed to be. Sometimes the humor gets a bit too gross for its own good, but it's mostly great. Teen Titans is certainly the more polished show, but that's something Ren and Stimpy never really aimed to be. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |

Topic | The End Is Nigh! (new game from the maker of Super Meat Boy, Binding of Isaac) |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/07/17 8:12:35 PM #3 | Looks like a Meat Boy sequel, but a little slower paced this time around. Will definitely buy either way. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |

Topic | Best movie based on a video game. |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/07/17 8:13:51 AM #24 | Silent Hill for live action and probably that Professor Layton movie if we include everything. Haven't ever seen anything I'd consider great though. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | C/D Gen V of Pokemon is the best in the series for content. |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/07/17 7:47:18 AM #3 | Probably Gen II for content, but I'd give it second place. B/W2 has a ton of extra stuff though. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |

Pus_N_Pecans 06/06/17 8:51:50 PM #12 | avatarmight posted... I also was not a fan of Whisper of the Heart, Only Yesterday Ocean Waves sucks, I agree there, but Whisper of the Heart and Only Yesterday are literally the top two Ghibli movies. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |

Topic | What are your favorite Netflix originals? |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/06/17 8:17:51 AM #10 | Master of None is easily my favorite. A Series of Unfortunate Events and Dear White People are also pretty solid. I feel like a vast majority of Netflix's series I've seen are either outright awful or fairly middling though. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |

Pus_N_Pecans 06/04/17 12:50:51 PM #16 | Awakening is the best of the newer FE games, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. You made the right choice. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | Let's say a new serial killer popped up. Would in be sexist to assume its a guy? |
Pus_N_Pecans 06/03/17 10:39:56 PM #13 | No, there's a much higher number of male serial killers than female. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |

Topic | PS Vita or Nintendo Switch? |
Pus_N_Pecans 05/31/17 7:37:58 PM #2 | Vita is currently better, although Switch will one day be the superior system. I'd never take a system that bulky on the bus though. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |

Pus_N_Pecans 05/30/17 6:51:53 PM #18 | Really close, but I liked Kids Next Door slightly more I think. It's a shame we lost Foster's though. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
Topic | Why is it that neckbeard gamers nowadays think replayability= good game? |
Pus_N_Pecans 05/30/17 6:48:20 PM #13 | Replayability? All I ever hear is how length=quality. If people actually cared about replayability, Platinum's games might actually sell. --- My arts- http://gopherguy.deviantart.com/ |
