System Wars Lounge V82: The High Horse Edition

FuMBLE!!!!

You didn't figure it out just by seeing his name the very first time he posted? LOL.

I assumed everyone knew and was just letting it slide.

Wow! Dat Russell Wilson!

@briguyb13: Ya, that pick 6!

lol these refs must all be kin to Stevie Wonder.

It weirdly feels like what the Starwars sequels should have been.

Well i haven't seen 99% of Star Wars so i couldn't talk about that, but the last episode of season 2 of Cobra Kai has lots of unanswered questions that they have plenty of content for season 3, i'm looking forward to it.

Hmmm, slight optimism towards maybe having a future qb. Only one game though

Yea on Season 2 now.

This is straight up Starwars. Mean that in a complimentary way. Shares a lot of the same themes. It seems to legit get it better than those shitty Disney movies.

Was going to wait until i got the SeX to play Valhalla, but gonna play it on the X instead, hopefully its as good as the 2 previous games, just not as long hopefully, 50hrs would be nice.

21 hours in I personally find it better than the last two so far. I think you'll like it, at worst you'll enjoy it as much as the previous ones.

Think I'll check out The Karate Kid the next time the 4K is on sale.

I would wait for the next gen version. This game looks stunning!

Ugh, this is why trusting YouTubers for 4K reviews is such a dumb idea. Totally misrepresenting the picture. They Live isn't this colorful or bright even in HDR. Yet everybody trusts him just because he's on YouTube.

Agree. Playing the latest AAA games on next-gen is really the best option to get the best experience and as of now, don't even bother with last-gen games if PS5/Xbox Series X version exist already.

By the way, SolidGame, I'm gonna cave-in and try to buy PS5 this year as my PS4 is already showing its age and by that, the fan has gotten so loud, it hits 100% max when I'm playing TLOU2.

The game looks stunning, I agree this is meant for next-gen consoles (or pc).

Nice! I think you won't be disappointed! I sold my PS4 Pro online for $325. But after fees and shipping, it was like $270. If I was more patient, probably could've gotten more. Especially now that everything is hard to find lol.

@lebanese_boy: Yea I was very surprised by how good it looked on PS5.

@ezekiel43: Is it that they are lying, or is it that your display isn't set up correctly?

@davillain-: @SolidGame_basic: But guys i'm not a graphics whore though. This game will look fine on my X just like Origins & Odyssey did before it. And i'm sure it will play well also.

I didn't get to start it last night as i had visitors, uninvited i might add.

WOW so many cheaters on Streets of Rage 4, doubtful half the people who S ranked the levels did it legit.

Neither. It's that he's taking pictures with his phone and his settings are probably messed up anyway. I took a screenshot with MadVR, which is still a better representation even with the HDR converted to SDR (I think 100 nits). If I didn't do that, the screenshot would look washed out/pale on my/your display. But my point is that my picture is not manipulated by the settings of my TV or phone.

More colorful scenes for comparison.

Then I guess it was a good idea for me to upload two of the harder levels to YouTube.

@ezekiel43: I was looking at the high scores on some of the levels and some people have scores in the millions in levels, the devs should be wiping these people out.

I spent over 60hrs trying to get the 5 million total score achievement legit, others cheat it on 1 level.

I dont get it, why cheat it when its so obvious, some people are sad mofos.

Took me 73 hours to get all the achievements. I feel like people don't even look at them, though. I can't even remember the last time I checked out someone's achievements. So I don't know why I'd ever feel compelled to cheat.

@ezekiel43: I was on trueachievements and saw that some people had all the achievements in under 5hrs which is simply impossible.

The leaderboards there are full of cheats on that game. Yeah not sure why one would want to cheat when its easy to see who has been cheating it.

Man, 4th time I've had drift on a switch controller. Shit's ridiculous.

@Chutebox: Maybe you should start a class action, oh shit never mind no one would dare do that to Nintendo.

Some people are just chievo/trophy addicts. Don't care if others know they cheat. Don't even care if they enjoy a game or not. Will legit just pick up games if they can get easy achievements. Shits weird.

@i_p_daily: I mean, they did offer free "repairs," but what good is that if they break easily in a few months?

Should definitely be a lawsuit.

Never had the drift issue. People always say it's only a matter of time, but had a Switch from day 1 and still in the clear.

Only controller issues I've had this (last) gen are with the DS4, particularly the batteries.

Somebody should definitely make a thread about controller batteries. 🤔

@Chutebox: You can't do that to Nintendo, even the judge would throw it out because its Nintendo lol.

I wonder what they even do when they "fix" the controllers that are sent in. It's no where near good enough.

Nothing wrong with going for achievements, its yeah when people buy easy 0-1hr games to get them that i see is the problem.

I have a high GS but not from playing easy games, i play what a like and will play the game normally picking up whatever achievements come my way, and then go back and do stuff to get those achievements after my initial playthrough.

But there are people who play online for wins, K/D ratio etc, some playing to S rank all levels etc, so there is all sorts of weird shit going on with gamers.

@Chutebox: Do you have bear paws n claws for hands? What are you doing with your joy cons? Smash Bros? I've had two pair with no problems, one from launch.

It's not even me! My kids use it. I picked it up today and tried to play some Zelda...nope!

I put in for another fix from Nintendo, assholes should just give me a new pair, but they won't.

Kids are awful with electronics. Get them some pro controllers.

Nah, I make sure mine are fine. If I see them being stupid I take it away and give them a smack. It's just the controllers.

@briguyb13: nah. Not where bruises can show haha

That S3 final of Cobra Kai was ultra cheesy good.

Nice to watch this stuff when turning on the news and seeing the world turn to shit.

Wait S3 is out on Netflix?

Shit if so that means its closer coming to dvd where i will get to see it.

Please no spoilers.

Just watched Escape from New York for the third time. I don't know if I thought of this the last time I watched it, but Snake's "snake" tattoo probably goes down to his cock.

One of the darkest discs I own. So much blackness. Lovely.

@i_p_daily: Yea, binge it all, none of the Disney+ where they try to dribble out your subscription week to week.

Overall I thought S2 was better on a whole, but this had better highs and some pretty neat callbacks.

The kid plotlines are sort of repetitive, goes a bit over the top with the fights where it feels like they are being hodgepodge'd in their because gotta have fight-scenes. But at the same time it's in line with that 80's mentality where it's complete fantasy and shouldn't over-examine it with reality as a measuring stick, all this shit is stupid if you actually apply an ounce of reality to it, but that's part of the joy.

A childrens karate school is serous business

@uninspiredcup: I only read yes you binged watched it all, i don't want to know anything else in the slightest.

Just tell me one thing, how many episodes are there in S3?
