49799 | Legacy Sequels | <p><img alt="" src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/d4/31/fe/d431fe13327ef57132b57905d0099de6.jpg" /></p> <p>In 1966, one of my favorite teachers in school said, "people who wallow in the past possess an immature mind". So here I am in 2023 repeating to everyone I know, "I want to remember the past, not relive it".</p> <p>I now realize that it's not the fault of the audience or franchise fans. It's the big studios and production companies that see money in telling the same stories, over and over.</p> <p>As a boy growing up in the 1960's I enjoyed all the magazine articles and TV shows predicting the 21st century. No one could have imagined the awful people heading major production companies in the entertainment industry. Greedy people who only know how to make money selling the same story again, and again.</p> <p>This horrible cycle of "sequels/reboots/prequels/remakes" must come to an end. Otherwise one day this generation will see "2060" on a calendar, and realize they wasted the best of their lives reliving the 20th century.</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://i.pinimg.com/564x/dc/60/9c/dc609c4ea9fb0b5fff373171662e6417--best-movie-posters-steven-spielberg.jpg" /></p> | eddstarr | Apr 23, 2023 | |
49798 | My Danny Thomas Moment | <p>Also, we must thank him for creating The Andy Griffith Show.</p> | Mr Magic | Apr 23, 2023 | |
49797 | Best Fighting Games | <p>The one I played the most was Eternal Champions on Genesis, which was kind of Sega's answer to Mortal Kombat. It had really cool lore, a great soundtrack and instead of fatalities each stage had a unique "overkill" that was always cool when you managed to trigger it. But I tried replaying it recently on and the fighting feels really stiff. It's still conceptually awesome, but the gameplay doesn't hold up very well sadly.</p> <div data-oembed-url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxdrHQOHsEE"> <div> <div style="height:0; left:0; padding-bottom:75%; position:relative; width:100%"><iframe allow="accelerometer *; clipboard-write *; encrypted-media *; gyroscope *; picture-in-picture *; web-share *;" allowfullscreen="" scrolling="no" src="//if-cdn.com/sAU1wPn" style="top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute; border: 0;" tabindex="-1"></iframe></div> </div> </div> <p> </p> <p>The other one I really liked was DBZ: Hyper Dimension on SNES. I only ever played an untranslated emulated version, but I still love the unique style of the character sprites and the animation was really smooth.</p> <div data-oembed-url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_BMcxOe71k"> <div> <div style="height:0; left:0; padding-bottom:56.25%; position:relative; width:100%"><iframe allow="accelerometer *; clipboard-write *; encrypted-media *; gyroscope *; picture-in-picture *; web-share *;" allowfullscreen="" scrolling="no" src="//if-cdn.com/9MHafr3" style="top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute; border: 0;" tabindex="-1"></iframe></div> </div> </div> <p> </p> | MamboGator | Apr 23, 2023 | |
49796 | Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire | <p>Looks like it might be cool. I really liked Skull Island and the first new Godzilla (which everyone seems to have thought was boring I guess?). But I skipped Godzilla vs Kong because King of the Monsters lost me at the end. It was really good in the first third, but by the end it's like the studio ran out of money and the special effects for the final battle looked like a Syfy channel movie.</p> <p>But if they're going to keep the series going I guess I should get caught up.</p> | MamboGator | Apr 23, 2023 | |
49795 | The Café | <p>Looks like a retro dream come true, Vapor.</p> | Mr Magic | Apr 20, 2023 | |

49793 | Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire | <p>Well that was unexpected, but kind of awesome. Who would have thought a villian for the two kings would come from the Kong side of things. I'm interested in this.</p> | Vaporman87 | Apr 20, 2023 | |
49792 | Your favourite crappy old games | <p>Does anybody remember Treasures of the Deep on the first PlayStation? It was a submarine game. You start off by collecting old treasures but eventually end up fighting an international terrorist group.</p> <p>I played it a lot as a kid, and eventually found a copy of it when I was in college. It was a pretty hard game, I had to play with some cheat codes enabled. My favorite mission was when you are in the Great Barrier Reef fighting off aggressive Great White Sharks.</p> <div data-oembed-url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wkr_ThjkcCw"> <div> <div style="height:0; left:0; padding-bottom:56.25%; position:relative; width:100%"><iframe allow="accelerometer *; clipboard-write *; encrypted-media *; gyroscope *; picture-in-picture *; web-share *;" allowfullscreen="" scrolling="no" src="//if-cdn.com/sucUc8j" style="top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute; border: 0;" tabindex="-1"></iframe></div> </div> </div> <p> </p> | Rick Ace Rhodes | Apr 20, 2023 | |

49790 | Your favourite crappy old games | <p>Oh, I didn't say it was crappy.</p> <p>Other than the transformations I mentioned, the storyline was quite amusing.</p> <p>It may have been tough, but it wasn't crappy.</p> <p>I do apologize for mentioning this game in this thread btw.</p> | Mr Magic | Apr 19, 2023 |
