#113116 Next Generation

Posted by LinkandShiek on 08 July 2020 - 02:15 PM in Sci Fi

I've seen episodes here or there, but this is my first time reallly watching it through in order. Almost finished season 1.



#113097 Who's is your favorite character from the X-Men Comics?

Posted by LinkandShiek on 06 July 2020 - 08:00 PM in Comics, Books, and Graphic Novels

The original cast + Wolverine. I got into the series because I used to watch X-Men: Evolution.



#113096 Controllers

Posted by LinkandShiek on 06 July 2020 - 05:19 PM in Video Games

The N64 controller is simple to use. Right hand on right handle. Left hand on either left or middle handle depending on whether the game uses dpad or control stick, respectively. Not as refined as the dualshock and everything that came after, but a servicable intermediary step. I would only want to use the N64 controller for N64 games.



#113091 Controllers

Posted by LinkandShiek on 04 July 2020 - 10:20 PM in Video Games

The N64 controller is actually my favorite. As far as playing any game well, Playstation (any generation) controllers are my favorite, followed closely by NES and SNES controllers.



#113089 Next Generation

Posted by LinkandShiek on 03 July 2020 - 04:13 AM in Sci Fi

My favorite would probably be TOS, but it's been awhile since I've seen it. For fans of the original, voice actor Vic Mignogna did a very good fan show Star Trek Continues, to finish out the original 5 year mission.



#113084 Next Generation

Posted by LinkandShiek on 02 July 2020 - 12:55 PM in Sci Fi

Getting back into Star Trek. Watched most of TOS as a teen, but not much since then. I haven't seen most of Next Gen apart from the movies, so I started watching the show. So far I'm on the one where the Ferengi try to frame Picard. Gonna finish the episode after work.

Thanks for the warm welcome!



#113066 Looking for good Spider-Man Comics

Posted by LinkandShiek on 01 July 2020 - 08:38 AM in Comics, Books, and Graphic Novels

I recommend either collecting the Spider-Man Epic Collection or subscribing to the Marvel app. If you do want to collect old floppies, you should head out to a flea market. There's one in PA called Roots. I don't know what's in your area, but generally you can get a stack of comics for a dollar. Unfortunately you can'y0t always find what you want.

Someone already suggested reading Ultimate Spider-Man, and I agree. I'd also suggest reading the original runs in the 60s to any Spidey fan. Also check out the J. Michael Straczynski run. One of the best until he was forced to write the worst Spider-Man comic of all time.



#113065 Flash games

Posted by LinkandShiek on 01 July 2020 - 08:18 AM in Video Games

Speaking of Cartoon Network, I always loved the adventure games they did. There was a Courage the Cowardly Dog one, and one starring some of their Cartoon Cartoon (I think) characters. It was episodic, with a different character in each one. One was a cactus person, another was a caveman. I remember Dexter wanted elevator shoes.



#113059 Flash games

Posted by LinkandShiek on 30 June 2020 - 11:17 PM in Video Games

I used to go on newgrounds every day. I especially loved adventure games or platformers. Really liked adultswim's games as well, especially Amateur Surgeon. Also played a lot of Neopets as a kid. There was this ice cave game, as well as a fairy cave game that I especially loved.

Hey all. I started an account here because I've cut out social media and reddit. I want to discuss nerdy things in a place that isn't overly political in every corner of the site.

I'm into most nerdy things. I love Dungeons and Dragons. I like the old Star Wars movies and I'm getting back into Star Trek: the Next Generation. I loved watching TOS as a teen on my dad's computer. I love vido games, as can be seen in my username. I just finished watching the Jojo's Bizarre Adventure anime. I think I'm gonna like it here.
