it's never because they are old that they are evil though. They all have their own reasons for being the way they are, and it's never, "I'm old and thus feel like being evil."
the first game wasn't on there: The PS2/XBOX/GCN/PC titles are easy to make look decent in HD, just by raising the resolution. Really, that is all they are doing. They are not making new textures, or adding more polygons, or anything like that. They are just doing the same thing PC gamers do to their games when they want them to look better... Flipping the switches on the graphic settings Now if you tried this with a PS1 game, you have a very weak source, and the game will still look really dated. It just would not fit in an HD remake collection. The same would also apply to tons of last gen titles. It just happens that the games being chose for these ports already look really good. Truthfully, if you don't care about the addition of trophies and achievements, you can already do exactly what these guys are doing by using a legal emulator on your PC. And that would cost you absolutely nothing, except the original games, which are dirt cheap right now. Oh, and you'd actually get 60fps at 1080p. Not this 30fps at 720p crap. Anyone buying these HD ports is getting scammed, hard. There's no new content, not even new textures, just the same games in a higher resolution. You can do the same damn thing with your PC in 5 seconds for free. Paying $60 for these collections is just... ugh. It makes me sick what these companies are getting away with.
Oh no I never actively keep my emotions in check, I'm not into that. Not that I display anger, since I usually don't have that. Plus, I'm indifferent to a lot of things. Whenever someone gives like a really juicy story, either something about sex, street racing, dog fights, or general insidious activities (I live in the middle-east) I have to do my best to show interest, especially considering that as much as I like some of my friends, they have huge fragile egos. So I always do a lot of nodding, a lot of "hmms" and "oohs" and "aahs" and a bit of "oh I see." Even if I really don't find myself caring, as I've never been into this stuff at any point or age in my life (but beggars can't be choosers when it comes to friends in such a small population) I think this persona of mine has now become like part of me or something.
All the time my friends tell me they love how I have such a comedic expression whenever they tell me news or whatnot. It's usually intentional when I'm trying to be silly. However I've noticed recently that... well it's difficult to explain. I think I overexaggerate my facial expressions subconsciously. This is with strangers, like a mechanic at the garage telling me bad news about my car, and then they keep telling me not to worry while looking flustered themselves. Also a bank teller. And a clerk at the store when they were all out of pop tarts. Does anyone here tend to betray their thoughts in their facial features?
