  1. Man, Leo finally won an oscar!

      Think he was better in What's Eating Gilbert Grape. "I WANT HOT DOG"

      I think they just felt like they owed him at this point.

      Good news for the Tech Guy!

  2. Criterion Collection Blu-rays make some older films look pretty fantastic.

      If you are region free then check out Masters Of Cinema in the UK.

    2. Cobra Kai

      Not just Criterions. The movie studios like MGM, FOX and WB are well equipped to push high quality transfers of old flicks. Check out Ben-Hur or The Ten Commandments. Criterion has some good marketing though, I'll give the that. They offer premium packaging (ie booklet inserts) on rare movies, and charge a small fortune.

       

  3. Hopefully the AA store needs some Atari carts! Would love to get me some store credit.

      So I can of course immediately spend it on a homebrew... the question is, which one...

  4. RIP Harper Lee.

  5. -20ºF last night walking back from the pub. Awful.

      it was about -5 here last night, that was enough for me leaving the bar. Yuck.

      Next time set your breath on fire. That should give off some heat.

  6. Definitely feeling some New Super Mario Bros. Wii after finishing thesis work for today.

  7. I'll definitely be getting this, although I'm holding off on the Megaman Collection for the PS2 version instead: https://twitter.com/SEGA/status/690234462546751489

      Interesting that they used a SMS background even though they are Genesis titles.

    2. Bixler

      Bixler

      Yep, that is indeed interesting; I thought it was a nice touch all the same. Really looking forward to nabbing this, esp. for Puyo Puyo.

  8. Putting together my honors thesis works cited is the perfect time for some Gorillaz.

  9. Simply can't stop watching Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood. What a fantastic anime.

    1. Impaler_26

      Impaler_26

      Yeah, FMA Brotherhood is awesome! I watched the whole series around x-mas and it's now one of my favorite Anime. :)

      You should check out Steins;Gate. Best anime I've ever seen.

    3. Bixler

      I watched that just before FMA:B; it was also amazing.

  10. Finally able to knock out some of my Vita/3DS backlog.

  11. Finally got an old CRT into my dorm room for the price of a cup of tea – once finals are over, it's Atari time!

  12. Looking forward to seeing Heart of the Sea in a couple of weeks!

  13. PS2 on the way with GTA Trilogy, MGS Essentials, and Katamari! Can't wait for winter break! :)

    1. Bixler

      Bixler

      Even if winter break is a thing of the past at this point in your life, I certainly hope that you will be able to spend a few days with your family during the holidays with cheer, pizzazz, whatever else! :) My break is only a little over a week this year, but I'll be sure to do a boatload of crap around the house for my folks when I'm not busy rolling shit up in Katamari. ;)

    2. Nutsy Doodleheimer

      Nutsy Doodleheimer

      Nice!! Vice City is my all time favorite in the GTA series.

    3. BassGuitari

      BassGuitari

      I will get a couple of days, yeah, and thank you. My family's so scattered geographically and Christmas is one of the few times we all get together. Incidentally, I'm getting my brother some Saturn and 3DO games, as well as an AV cord for his Jaguar, so it will be a good time. :)

  14. Thanksgiving vacation is coming to a close, and I already can't wait for Christmas. These upcoming two weeks are the worst of each and every college year.

  15. "In the room the women come and go / Talking of Michelangelo."

  16. Can't believe I waited so long to pick up a Vita. Tearaway and Hatsune Miku Project Diva F 2nd are fantastic!

  17. Just ordered a used PS Vita with Tearaway and Resistance: Burning Skies. Can't wait to finally try this thing.

    1. TheObscureGamer

      TheObscureGamer

      with or without the added power, playing Marvel VS Capcom with 2 sticks on that beautiful screen is a plus and yeah you need older firmware

    2. Crazy Climber

      Crazy Climber

      Sorcerers saga was pretty good if you like cutsie RPG's (only game I played on it)

    3. Bixler

      Bixler

      Well you were all right. I'm loving my Vita! Almost done with Tearaway.

  18. I will be so happy if I can convince my roommates to play some Atari with me and step away from Smash Bros. for once.

    1. Random Terrain

      Random Terrain

      Maybe you can talk them into playing a nice game of naked Twister?

    2. SpiceWare

      SpiceWare

      You need Medieval Mayhem and 2 more friends

       

    3. Bixler

      Bixler

      Haha thanks for the input, I'll try my luck today with these!

  19. Absolutely loving Space Dandy; just finished Season 1!

    1. BDW

      BDW

      He's a dandy in space!

  20. Well Jurassic World was all kinds of awesome.

    1. Hatta

      Hatta

      It was a few kinds of awesome. Not quite all kinds. It was not Speilburg/Williams level awesome, but well worth the time and ticket price.

    2. Bixler

      Bixler

      Yeah, I wrote my status off the cuff. It was definitely subpar in a number of areas, such as character development, plot holes, etc. but was overall a very enjoyable experience!

  21. Summer vacation is upon me; it's time for Atari once again!

  22. Diving into some anime. Thoroughly enjoying Cowboy Bebop thus far.

    1. Papa

      Papa

      Isn't bell peppers and beef supposed to have beef?

  23. I've never been in a huge snowstorm like this before. Exciting!

    1. Keatah

      Keatah

      Ohh I know! Isn't it?? How much so far?

      xucaen

      Front and back doors are snowed in, I won't be able to shovel until tomorrow because it's still snow hard here.

    3. Bixler

      Bixler

      Jeez, that's crazy. I couldn't even begin to guess, at least 15" or so! The wind speeds are incredible to listen to. Wish I had time to muck around in it... today was mostly a study day.
