I hop on socials to look up and talk about comic books (X-Men!), video games (the Xeno series!), anime (Gundam!), Major League Baseball (Go Yankees!), college football (Go Dawgs!), The Muppets or whatever other topic(s) tickles my fancy!
Pinned
As my inaugural post, I figure I'll list out the stuff I like/talk about:
- X-Men
- The Xeno series (Xenogears, Xenosaga and Xenoblade)
- Gundam (mostly Universal Century)
- Virtua Fighter
- Donkey Kong
- Godzilla
- Major League Baseball
- College football
- Misc.

I just beat #NinjaGaiden4, and it was awesome! Fun and engaging combat, sleek visuals & cool music. They don't make 'em like this anymore.

It's a smidge bloated in the middle, but only by a mission or two.

It's not as good as NG 2 Black, but it's better than NG 3RE.

Needs more Ayane. 😄

We lost a legend.

But for her family, the gofundme is still up.
Burger Becky’s gofundme for cancer treatment is now for a funeral service.

To my knowledge we’ve not yet lost her, but she has announced that her doctors have informed her there is nothing more that can be done
I’ve started a GoFundMe to help with my cancer battle gofund.me/6850175a3

This is, to this day, my favorite Dragon Ball game.

Yeah, the mechanics are limited when compared to something like FighterZ, but it's got just enough to keep it interesting. Combine that with a good cast and that special, Dragon Ball charm, and you've got a winner.
21 years ago today, Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3 was originally released on the PlayStation 2 in NA. It was developed by Dimps and published by Atari.

Remember the recent middle-of-the-night apartment building raid where children were dragged outside naked & zip-tied in the street while black & Latino residents were _sorted by race_ and piled into separate vans while their apartments were ransacked & robbed? That raid? So it resulted in 0 arrests.

"If you hate GenAI you're going to have to stop playing new games when they all start using it"

My brother in Christ, my backlog is literally thousands of games long. I have lifetimes worth of earlier titles to play, & I will gladly do that instead of boiling the oceans for a new CoD or whatever

This is still a really good fighting game. If you have an XBox (OG, One or Series), I recommend picking it up.

This is cool. COURIER has created a searchable database with all 20,000 of the files just released from Epstein’s estate.

Trump's name appears in them more than anyone else, in 1,628 documents.

Trump faces heat from MAGA base on ‘America First’ agenda, Epstein
MAGA leaders erupted over the president’s assertion that the U.S. needs foreign workers. That rift and others have raised GOP concerns about enthusiasm ahead of the midterms.

Offensive Move (2 or 8, then P+K+G) gives you side advantage without needing an evade, but keep in mind it doesn't count as an Evade so it doesn't avoid anything! Many characters also have moves that turn someone 90 degrees if they hit! (3/4)

With the right sequence you can also get behind someone! The frame bonus is the same, defensive options are delayed by 5 frames, and back throws are inescapable! These tips are just a sample, there's even more to VF's side/back mechanics! (4/4)

If you evade a strike and attack immediately, it's a Side attack! Your attack gets a frame bonus of +2/+3/+6 frames based on its normal damage. This can give huge advantage if they guard, or can make unsafe launchers safe! (1/4)
