| Topic | People really want Rian Johnson away from Star Wars. |
| kukukupo 02/18/18 11:29:41 AM #11 | Well, he did make one of the worst Star Wars moves. It's a toss up between VIII and I. |
| Topic | I'm new to baseball, need advice |
| kukukupo 02/18/18 11:12:21 AM #27 | If you want to learn to hit a baseball, buy an old broom and some plastic golf-balls. Practice hitting the golf balls with the broom handle. Your hand-eye coordination will improve a ton. As for fielding and gloves - most of that you need to practice with a friend. If you have a brick wall somewhere nearby, you can buy some tennis balls and practice throwing/pitching at the wall. It if is a wall you can mark, use some tape to put some 'targets' on it and practice throwing at the targets from different distances and angles. |
| Topic | WFT happend to Secret of Mana? |
| kukukupo 02/18/18 11:06:20 AM #1 | I just saw they released a remake. I'm not usually a 'grahpics guy' - but it looks awful. |
| Topic | Since arcades are all but dead... |
| kukukupo 02/11/18 7:03:22 PM #6 | Action53 posted... That's why I got my own Nice! I like your Asteroids. It was on my list a while ago. I'm pretty happy with my current collection, though. |
| Topic | What was the WORST SEQUEL you've ever seen?? |
| kukukupo 02/11/18 8:36:37 AM #32 | The Last Jedi ranks up there |
| Topic | 90s were the best decade for games by far |
| kukukupo 02/10/18 10:10:36 AM #33 | The best answer IMO is late 80's into late 90's. No loading times, no 1-3 hour tutorials, no loot boxes, no micro transactions, there were still printed books/manuals, consoles and games were still built to last physically, renting games was still a thing. There are more reasons I'm sure, but that's just off the top of my head. |
| Topic | 90s were the best decade for games by far |
| kukukupo 02/10/18 7:21:08 AM #16 | Sorry, but arcades were basically pay-to-win by the late 80's. They were a shell of their former self by the 90's. |
| Topic | Recommend albums for me to listen to. |
| kukukupo 02/05/18 7:01:27 PM #2 | Rock + Classical = Dream Theater. Some of it is a little metal-ish. Check out these two albums: Images and Words Metropolis Part II: Scenes from a Memory The first song of Images and Words is a little Heavy. I'd check out Metropolis first if you have never listened to them before. |
| Topic | Canada is changing its anthem to be gender neutral |
| kukukupo 02/04/18 6:18:03 PM #168 | Nightengale posted... OhhhJa posted...I'm in no position to judge the media from my own country? Trump is the result of a perfect storm. There was no real Republican candidate. The Democrats already crowned Hillary because it was 'her time'. If it was anyone other than Hillary, Trump wouldn't have won. |
| Topic | Should U.S. currency still have 'In God We Trust's on it? |
| kukukupo 02/04/18 10:37:59 AM #7 | jsb0714 posted... I'm indifferent. |

| kukukupo 02/01/18 8:54:51 PM #10 |  |
| Topic | FFVI was better |
| kukukupo 02/01/18 6:16:47 AM #28 | VI is pretty great, but I like V better. |
| Topic | It is time for.. THE CEREAL BATTLE OF DEATH AND LOVE |
| kukukupo 01/31/18 4:22:23 PM #10 | I'm assuming this is for the current versions of cereal? Most of them suck now, but had better taste 10-15 years ago. |
| Topic | Did you do your taxes yet? |
| kukukupo 01/30/18 8:23:50 PM #35 | If you are self-employed, 1099'd, or own a business you can end up paying because you were expected to keep track of your own tax deductions. People who are good with money will always owe or break even. They have the willpower to get more money per paycheck, invest it, and make more in the long run. I'm not sure how much more one can make that way. Personally, I just have the maximum taken out and don't sweat whether I'll owe or not. |
| Topic | Are men's dress clothes terrible or are mine just cheap/too small? |
| kukukupo 01/29/18 8:51:33 PM #15 | Go to a store where they actually fit you. You will learn your sizes and find that dress clothes can be some of the most comfortable. I miss wearing suits every day, personally. Here is some advice: You will likely spend 1/3 of your life sleeping and 1/3 of your life on your feet. Invest in a good mattress, a good pillow, and at least 1 great pair of work shoes. You won't regret it. |
| Topic | is there a darker scene in a kid's movie than that one scene in Toy Story 3? |
| kukukupo 01/28/18 9:11:19 PM #39 | The horse scene in Never-ending Story. Basically all of the Dark Crystal. |
| Topic | Any others with Magnavox Odyssey 2 as your first console? |
| kukukupo 01/28/18 2:05:05 PM #1 | Most people just give me a blank stare when I mention it. KC munchkin was the best though. |
| Topic | Pizza is a not a good food for loners |
| kukukupo 01/28/18 9:16:26 AM #30 | Disagree completely. When I was single and living by myself I almost exclusively ate pizza. (this was circa 2002-2008) Nearly every pizza place had $5 large one-topping pizzas. Just pick one up after work on the way home and you have a hot meal. You probably won't eat it all - so you'll have some left over for the next day. Even if you do eat it all - eating at McDonalds costs $4 or so - so it is very comparable. |
| Topic | Suggestions on which version of Final Fantasy II I should play? |
| kukukupo 01/24/18 7:12:10 PM #7 | Just my opinion - the FF games on mobile have terrible controls that are very frustrating. I'd avoid any mobile version unless they have started to allow you to use a bluetooth controller. |
| Topic | Scarlett Johansson gets on board the crazy feminist train |
| kukukupo 01/23/18 8:01:21 PM #41 | Amazing how fast you can go from hot to not. |
| Topic | how can the republican party possible blame the gov shut down on democrats? |
| kukukupo 01/20/18 7:08:44 AM #34 | Well, Republicans were blamed for the last shutdown when the Democrats controlled all 3 phases of government. The minority always gets blamed. |
| Topic | Had Chick-fil-A and Johnny Rockets for the first time this week. |
| kukukupo 01/18/18 6:43:46 PM #28 | Just had a chicken sandwich tonight. So yummy! |
| Topic | Had Chick-fil-A and Johnny Rockets for the first time this week. |
| kukukupo 01/17/18 9:21:32 PM #23 | Chic-fil-A is awesome. I do admit every once in a while I get a so-so sandwich instead of a good one. (maybe once every 10 times) Yeah, it's just bread and chicken - but still so tasty. Plus, I have lots of respect for a business that actually has values and puts them above profits (even if it does seem a little creepy/cult-like) |
| Topic | Subway brought back $5 foot-longs |
| kukukupo 01/14/18 8:47:10 PM #33 | Ranzoh posted... Quiznos and Jimmy Johns all the way. But these cheap sandwich deals are tempting. Like their 3.49 Sub of the Day deal. Might have to get the Spicy Italian or Meatball Marinara. Now if only they came back with the Round sandwiches I had when I was a kid, but I doubt it. I used to like Jimmy John's, but they are pathetic now. Subway actually gives you more meat on the sub. Jersey Mike's is the best one going now. I eat there any chance I get since there isn't one in my area. My second go-to is Penn Station. |
| Topic | What would you say is the best WRPG before Baldurp Gate |
| kukukupo 01/14/18 8:45:00 PM #6 | I'm biased but I always liked the Eye of the Beholder. Probably doesn't hold up too well today, though. |
| Topic | Playing Chrono Trigger. When does it become good? |
| kukukupo 01/14/18 8:38:33 PM #13 | rexcrk posted... When does it get good? Pretty much this. Not sure what you consider a 'good' game if Chrono Trigger doesn't do it for you. That being said - you are close to a major point in the game. I'd try playing it up until you get to the Kingdom of Zeal ( I'm not spoiling anything - but you aren't too far away) and if you don't like it by then, you won't. |
| Topic | What is your single favorite video game EVER. Like EVER? |
| kukukupo 01/13/18 6:40:52 PM #69 | Chrono Trigger #1 |
| Topic | That best part of Final Fantasy 7 is.... |
| kukukupo 01/13/18 1:44:32 PM #24 | when the screen finally loads and you get to play a game again. |
| Topic | Anyone played Blossom Tales: The Sleeping King? Looks like a LttP clone |
| kukukupo 01/07/18 1:07:34 PM #5 | It is not as much aLtttP as it is Link's Awakening, IMO. |
| Topic | Which of the NES adventure games did you like most? |
| kukukupo 01/06/18 7:05:24 PM #15 | crystalis |
| Topic | Sears, Kmart, and Macy's will close more stores in 2018. |
| kukukupo 01/06/18 7:02:47 PM #23 | WastelandCowboy posted... LinkPizza posted...Mead posted...Dikitain posted...If the Sears near me closes soon, I am raiding them for some Kenmore and Craftsman stuff. I need a new stove and some tools. No. Some good brands today for hand tools include Wera, Klein, Snap-on, Channel Lock, knipex. |
| Topic | Chrono Trigger - PS1 or DS? |
| kukukupo 01/02/18 6:33:37 PM #31 | As pretty much stated, SNES > all others > PSX. The problems with the PSX are the AWFUL load times. That being said, if you are getting a digital copy, the load times might be slower. Still worse than SNES, though. |
| Topic | In RPGs, do you usually prefer turn-based combat or real-time combat? |
| kukukupo 12/31/17 10:47:01 AM #29 | ATB is best. |
| Topic | Are any of these books good for learning to program/code? |
| kukukupo 12/30/17 8:41:51 AM #9 | AllstarSniper32 posted... Lokarin posted...The best way to learn to code is to... read the manuals But it is the truth. |
| Topic | I want to watch a let's play/walkthrough of a game. Recommendations? |
| kukukupo 12/28/17 6:38:39 PM #47 | I like the ones where someone is playing a game for the first time. Especially with the classics - like Chrono Trigger or Final Fantasy. |
| Topic | I saw Star Wars (probably spoilers) |
| kukukupo 12/24/17 8:43:38 PM #32 | SmokeMassTree posted... Bad movie was bad |
| Topic | Just had my first disgaea experience, and woah... |
| kukukupo 12/24/17 8:41:07 PM #16 | Disgaea 1 has the best story and humor, IMO. It is a great game and should be played first. The reason being, Disgaea 5 has much better mechanics and system but not as great of a story. The real joy in Disgaea games however, is after you 'beat' the game. My opinion: Buy 1, play it and beat it (doesn't take long). If you are into it - by all means play the post game stuff. Personally, I'd jump right over to 5 and start there. You can easily get 100+ hours on any Disgaea game, but once you play 5, the others seem a little clunky. The stories in 2-4 aren't really that great. Once you get into Disgaea, most other tactics games are way too slow and boring (looking at you Final Fantasy Tactics) |
| Topic | Your favorite Christmas movie |

| kukukupo 12/18/17 4:11:29 PM #9 | 5 > 4 > 6 > Star wars is like Indiana Jones. There are only 3. It would be nice if they would make more some day, but alas, we will just have to enjoy the greatness of the trilogy. |
| Topic | TLJ fucking sucked |
| kukukupo 12/18/17 4:00:12 PM #81 | Doctor Foxx posted... kukukupo posted...I honestly don't understand how people think this is a good movie at all. There were SO many cringe-worthy moments and virtually NO plot. Ironic that it was about failure since it was failure. |
| Topic | TLJ fucking sucked |
| kukukupo 12/18/17 3:59:21 PM #80 | I'll give a couple off the top of my head: To expand on the above point, R2 is the one with the map, and finally 'wakes up' and the end of the first move. Is he involved at all? Nope! He gets one tiny scene with a Nostalgia trip and that's it. |
| Topic | Did you like the Rose character? the last jedi spoilers maybe |
| kukukupo 12/18/17 12:59:36 PM #38 | You could remove the whole Finn/Rose plot from the movie and nothing of value would be lost. |
| Topic | snoke's role in the last jedi is VERY DIVISIVE... |
| kukukupo 12/18/17 12:57:00 PM #3 | Yes, I guess you could say people are split down the middle over it. |
| Topic | TLJ fucking sucked |
| kukukupo 12/18/17 12:54:16 PM #70 | Doctor Foxx posted... Yellow posted...Why did this movie suck? Without any good reviews I have no way of knowing. I'm not wasting my time in a theater to find out. I honestly don't understand how people think this is a good movie at all. There were SO many cringe-worthy moments and virtually NO plot. Plus - it doesn't even tie in with the previous movie. If you watch VII right before VIII - they just plain flush away all of the setups or ignore them completely. No continuity whatsoever. The Last Jedi is on the level of 1-3 at best. I could even understand arguments for the Prequil movies being better. . . |
| Topic | TLJ fucking sucked |
| kukukupo 12/18/17 5:37:48 AM #35 | SmokeMassTree posted... Yeah it was terrible |
| Topic | They really screwed up Jumanji's release date. |
| kukukupo 12/18/17 5:36:49 AM #14 | Mead posted... Wouldnt be surprised if audiences like it more than the last jedi |
