We should all try to behave like the person we have been switched to and be judges for our performance!


I love giving huggles and the N64!

I'm glad for the bump too because I missed Sadame when I read this thread earlier. It looks engaging. Blast Master Zero was pretty much nailed on as a nostalgia purchase anyway, but I'm really digging the Zero polish.

Lol! The Khushrenda week shenanigans are working. I signed it to post the same story, saw the avatar, and was WTF?

Anyway, an article regarding Khushrenadalord's post: http://deadspin.com/sacramentos-mls-bid-possibly-derailed-by-last-second-ow-1791856813

Lol! Krushrenda got me. I was confused as to who I was talking to this morning. I even questioned how I could have been so mistaken before signing off last night.

Yeah, we are are really coming from different places. I wouldn't think of describing what LeBron is doing as acting like a spoiled brat anymore than I would a GM lowballing a contract or trashing a player in arbitration.

Barkley can't be wrong, but he can't be right either, and that's kind of the point. "Competitiveness" is a subjective designation that's ambiguously defined and can be tightly bound up with notions of masculinity. Barkley is essentially defaming LeBron's character, and has been doing so for a long time. But for what purpose? Pointing out Barkley's hypocrisy is not to refute his position, but to provide evidence that it is not based on principle. So if it's not on principle, then what's the agenda? Well maybe Barkley is literally paid to try to publicly humiliate any athlete the owners, GMs, and existing agents (who have long standing relationships with owners that outlive CBAs and individual client contracts) deem to be too upitty.

Hey BlackNMild,

I'm still working on your PM, it's getting into article-like length to keep all the moving parts coherently arranged, but LeBron touched on some of the issues last night. You have to read between the lines a bit, but you get the sense he wants to go at Barkley the same way McGee went at Shaq: http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/18589897/lebron-james-cleveland-cavaliers-throws-gauntlet-charles-barkley-hater

Drill Dozer (GBA) - This game has a certain amount of quiet hype behind it...Despite many positives, I'm not sure that I enjoyed the game. It never really drew me in, either due to story or gameplay, and I could have easily set it down and just quit without feeling any regret. So despite being a technically solid release, it's hard to recommend.
 :-\

Interesting, I agree on the hype part, I feel like I've heard the game referenced quite a bit on the NWR podcasts, but I didn't know it.

TalkBack / Re: Pokemon Bank Update For Sun And Moon Now Live
« on: January 30, 2017, 11:24:14 AM »
I would love to be able to see all the Pokémon I have across every game (at least as of the last connection). I would also love to be able to access Bank from my phone, and to be able to extract all its data in a format that allows it to be sorted. And it would be great if the UI had the art design and personality of the Alola rotom. I'd be willing to pay for it. Is it a plausible wish? I was hoping that some Bank features were part of the mobile plans.

It's more perspective than details and is too divisive for this forum. I will just say that LeBron's way of doing business is challenging existing power structures and there has been a substantial racial dimension to the backlash since at least "The Decision".

Melo's low efficiency, low defense, ball-hogging game is the same as it was when the Knicks traded for him, and when they most recently resigned him (both times in opposition to the majority of Knick fans). If they are moving him now for basketball reasons, then it is an admission of massive failure on behalf of management. If they are moving him for off-court reasons, then it circles back to Phil Jackson's racial arrogance regarding LeBron. Either way this is all on management and that's whose incompetence the media should be focused on.

Again, there are issues of class, race, and power lurking as to why there is a lack of accountability for ownership and management, and why the personal characters of black men like LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony are drug through the mud, and people like Dan Gilbert, Jim Dolan, and Phil Jackson are protected.

I don't want to bring politics into it other than to say that there are dimensions to both the LeBron and Melo conflicts that transcend basketball and I will support both players for those off-the-court reasons. I will also just say that the media coverage of the conflicts, and how management responds, won't be primarily driven by on-court agendas either.

It's actually a little worse. At first he's incredulous that she's even asking.

Kat: ...looking at the Switch at all? Any interest?

Him (Brian Fargo I think): The what? What do you mean?

Kat: The Nintendo Switch?

Him: Oh no, not possible [laughter]

117
Kat Bailey asked the developers of Torment:Tides of Numenera if they had plans on bringing it to the Switch and they literally started laughing. They walked it back a bit by the end and starting talking about fit but "not possible" and "it's not gonna happen on that machine" was the cause for the laughter.

There's a Boba Fett series out there? I'm not aware of any other Space Bounty Hunter Series in existence. I mean, Boba Fett could still be alive. No other series about Space Bounty Hunters that I know of is alive.
I once knew a strange fella in Rangoon. Wore a suit of all silver. Covered his face with a mask.
Called himself Rom, Spaceknight. Whatever the hell that meant.

When you adjust the odds for the relative sizes of the markets and fan bases (which will artificially deflate the Sox/Cubs lines) Cleveland is probably a little closer naturally.

I'm disappointed in the lack of ARMS votes. :(

I think it looks very interesting visually and like it might be fun to play, but I'm waiting to see how much depth the single player has (assuming there even is single player).

Any word on the Marvel Square Enix Games coming to Switch?

actually, I don't think I saw any mention of the SE Marvel game(s) on this site at all.


Is no one excited behind the potential of the MGU? (Marvel Gaming Universe)

I was very excited when I saw this, but I'm waiting to see if it will be on a platform I have.
