8:07 PMBornDistractedI’m starting to think Andrew should of been the new Solo…
8:08 PMaddictedtochaosI’m as pro gaming as it gets, but e-sports is the dumbest thing ever. IMHO.

8:17 PMmatthew wilsonnah it will just be yoda’s great great grandfather lol
8:18 PMaddictedtochaosAs long as they stay good keep making them.
8:19 PMmatthew wilsonhow manny more years before saturation 5 years?
8:22 PMBornDistracteddo you think the marvel universe has peaked now after the Avengars did so well box office wise?…
8:22 PMaddictedtochaosMarvel is comic book people making movies DC is movie people trying to make comic book movies and failing miserably.
8:22 PMmatthew wilsonI get its not for you twoo, but the more I watch my hero academia, the less I find myself enjoying the marval stuff. marval spends so much time on action scenes, and not enough on the world.
8:28 PMmatthew wilsonnot in the US, in the US tickets are going down.
8:28 PMaddictedtochaosThe theater chain in my area actually dropped their prices to $4.99.
8:33 PMmatthew wilsonTicket sales, not prices
8:33 PMmatthew wilsonPeople just are not going to movies anymore
8:34 PMBornDistractedI think it depends on the population of the nieghboorhood
8:34 PMaddictedtochaosThat is why I went to the earliest showings for Avengers last Friday. Kids still in school, people still at work.
8:34 PMmatthew wilsonI mean maybe, maybe 2 times a year
8:36 PMBornDistractedI’m sure their better than the Last Jedi movie lol
8:37 PMBornDistractedcorrect
8:37 PMBornDistractedthat’s why you guys liked it perhaps lol
8:38 PMaddictedtochaosStar by Star killed Star Wars for me.
8:38 PMmatthew wilsonironically, I watched more movies in collage for free, at my school movie theater. I dont find most movies worth the travel time
8:38 PMaddictedtochaosPart of the New Jedi Order books.
8:41 PMaddictedtochaosThat has been out for a little while now. There was as issue with the left bumper that has apparently been corrected.
8:41 PMBornDistractedI skipped the 64 era…
8:43 PMmatthew wilsonnah prefer that to the old one’
8:44 PMmatthew wilsonunique, you mean bad
8:44 PMmatthew wilsonn64 controler is just bad
8:45 PMScottyJayManI’d have the controller as the same shape, but have an extra set of B & A buttons on the left side for Goldeneye
8:45 PMmatthew wilsonnah give me a xbox 360 controller, or xb1 controller
8:45 PMaddictedtochaosN64 is there worst controller Switch Pro is their best.
8:46 PMBornDistractedwhat about the Duke controller? lol…
8:47 PMmatthew wilsonsteam not supports the switch pro controler
8:48 PMaddictedtochaosThey are ok in the grip. By themselves I don’t like them either.
8:49 PMmatthew wilsonatleast in beta version
8:50 PMmatthew wilsonI tend to prefer the k&m
8:50 PMmatthew wilsonshooters are objectively better with a m&k
8:50 PMmatthew wilsonfor real, there has been studies on it.
8:52 PMaddictedtochaosAnyone can point and click with a mouse. Controller takes more skill to be good.
8:52 PMmatthew wilsona player using a m&k will be more accurate, vs a controller player.
8:53 PMmatthew wilsona lot of pc shooters make up the difference by removing aim assist, and faster pace
8:54 PMScottyJayManK&m really good for games like word and excel
8:57 PMmatthew wilsonyour being unreasonable, you know no one owned a wiiu, and of course they will gauge for it lol.
8:57 PMaddictedtochaosPhysical is always better.
8:58 PMmatthew wilsonwho is gunna buy it on a wiiu at this point
8:58 PMScottyJayManOk 2 things. 1. The Wii U version is back on the Wii U eshop. 2. The Wii U eshop version was missing from the eshop since February.
9:00 PMScottyJayManIt wasn’t taken off recently, It was off for a good few months.
9:02 PMmatthew wilsonmah give me a new mario maker lol
9:03 PMmatthew wilsona port or new one doesnt matter
9:04 PMaddictedtochaosLost all interest in this when it was announced to be digital only. That is a deal breaker for me.
9:09 PMaddictedtochaosHope it is successful for their sake.
9:10 PMaddictedtochaosWould love to see Atari and Sega make comebacks, unlikely though.
9:12 PMaddictedtochaosThey have claimed it will play modern games as well.
9:23 PMaddictedtochaosReports are that is for Japan only.
9:23 PMaddictedtochaosYes
9:24 PMaddictedtochaosWish Sega would move on from just the Genesis. Would love to see a Saturn and Dreamcast collection.
