  1. I was reading old posts here looking for the list of Wii game suggestions I made to other people and came across this gem

    I usually don't care about pirating, I'd be a hypocrite if I did. But people who mod and pirate Wii games I legitimately get mad at because they're ruining it for everyone else. Hence the weakest damn library in existence.

    Guess I'm just a big stinky hypocrite now. I caved and modded it about a year later, haha. I bought a 500 gig HDD the other day to load Wii games and store my digital comic collection (because I accidentally deleted it all back in September and it was traumatic). It's super awesome. Basically it's this:

    With...I think I've got 40 games on it right now. Started playing Skyward Sword today but had to stop about a half hour in. The game is a blurry mess on my plasma, hard to look at. Bought some component cables off amazon for 5 bucks, hopefully that improves things.

  2. Completely missed this sim. To be honest, I'm off since December 19th and don't even know what day it is anymore.

    I think a lot of people were like this, there wasn't a lot in the HQ last night.

    I've been off since the 13th, everyday feels like Saturday to me lately.

  3. I had a great Christmas in the video game department

    Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword

    Modern Warfare 3

    Assassin's Creed: Revelations

    Rayman Origins

    Mario Kart 7

    Super Mario 3D Land

    Metal Gear Solid HD Collection

    Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3

    I got $600 too so I'll probably use a chunk of that to buy even more video games. :lol:

    On top of that I need to keep up with Skyrim. I'm still only like, level 6 or something.

  4. What do you mean for Extremis? The motion comic? I don't really watch motion comics, the story itself is fantastic though. Big fan of Warren Ellis.

    All of the animated comic shows on right now are A+ as well. Young Justice and Avengers. The pilot for the new Green Lantern show aired a couple weeks ago as well and while I still hate the animation style (it's this weird lazy 90s CGI style, sort of reminiscent of Reboot), the show itself was great. Really excited for season 2 of Avengers, last I checked they still hadn't announced an official date but it should start soon. February I'm guessing.

    Also the Thundercats reboot that aired over the summer. Ridiculously good. Great cast.

    And because I'm pissed they cancelled it solely so Disney could do their own version, I'm going to mention Spectacular Spider-Man. Ended it on a giant cliffhanger, it was done by the creator of Gargoyles (don't know if anyone else will remember that show), it was great. WAY better than the 90s Spider-Man.

  5. Actually I just thought of this Colin, (and yes I know thinking of this at 11 pm is weird) I didn't include any of the animated superhero movies on that list either. I only think of this because we were talking about how DC generally doesn't know what they're doing outside of Batman.

    If you don't feel like a manchild watching animated movies, check most of DC's out. They're almost all fantastic. And they've recently started doing 10 minute shorts for lesser known characters. So far they've done shorts for Captain Marvel/Black Adam, Jonah Hex, Spectre, Green Arrow and Catwoman. As for the actual movies, the only ones I didn't like was Batman: Gotham Knight and the two Justice League movies. Best one would be Batman: Under the Red Hood. The Superman/Batman ones are really good too, mostly because they retain the voice cast from the DC Animated Universe. So you've got Kevin Conroy, Tim Daly and Clancy Brown all back.

    Don't watch Marvel's though, they're all terrible. I made the mistake of buying most of them without watching them beforehand. The only tolerable one is Dr.Strange.

  7. Oh, I was expecting worse judging by what other people said but it wasn't actually a bad sim for Detroit. Split the home and home with St.Loo, tied Winnipeg and then lost to Phoenix. Also more improvement for all my prospects. Can't complain since most of that was on the road.

    And now I see Paradis got hurt against Winnipeg so I won't worry about the Phoenix shitkicking either. Jamie Benn on H&G will never turn out well, lol.

    Colorado goes 2-1-1 as well, can't complain there either. I might need to look for a better replacement for Rita than David Bisson though.

    Edit: Uh, scratch that. Injuries just ravaged the ###### out of Colorado. Dammit.

  8. Sent

    And that could be interesting. Sort of Inglourious Basterds with mutants instead of the Basterds. But that just reminds me they killed Nightcrawler last year. I miss him. =(

    David Fincher has been giving his ideas on Spider-Man while promoting Dragon Tattoo. I feel like Sony really missed out by not picking him. He would've been like Matthew Vaughn and not followed comic canon much but I think he would've made a great film. Said he would've just jumped straight to Spidey being an adult and would've killed Gwen Stacy. We'll see if Webb has the balls to kill her but somehow I doubt it.

  9. Yeah, they need to find someone who can take one of their lesser characters and put together something both character driven, but also intense, intelligent and totally fun. Kinda like the Iron Man films, actually (particularly number one). Joss Whedon anyone? I need to sit down and make a list of all the comic movies so I can evaluate them all and buy the bulk of 'em.

    Well lets see how Joss does with the Avengers before giving him more superhero stuff. I was going to say I'd like him to get another shot at trying to do Wonder Woman but Nicholas Refn has also been campaigning to do a Wonder Woman movie with Christina Hendricks. I'd rather see the latter. I think Hendricks would be a great Wonder Woman (the other suggestion I've liked is Gina Carano since apparently she can act)

    I have a list of comic movies here on my laptop if you ever want me to shoot it your way. Well, superhero movies really, it doesn't have things like Road to Perdition or Scott Pilgrim. I rank comic movies as I see them so thats why I have it.

  10. Shame Nolan won't do more. This is the kind of franchise that could go a long way. Still, once this is finished it'll be the new benchmark - perhaps for all comic movies (and the only one DC seems to get right) - and it'll be fun to see where the next Batman movie team will take the stories.

    Supposedly the next time we see Batman after this one will be in a Justice League film. Chris Nolan has also said he'll stick around as producer for the rebooted Batman, same role he currently has with Man of Steel.

    I was pissed Green Lantern did so poorly, I really want a Flash film. DC has even come out and said straight up that they're terrified of making a movie that isn't Bats or Supes. Even their animated movies, they're basically all Superman and Batman.

  11. I didn't think it was a bad game but it just largely felt like going through the motions. Once I beat the story, I just kind of moved on. I thought it was weird because usually a big budget game will stick in my head for a bit, even if it sucks.

    Also there were a lot of better games released, in my mind.
