so i guess best buy leaked that the metroid prime collection is coming to switch or something, so here's hoping
I saw that too. It would definitely buy the time before Metroid Prime 4 releases, plus the Switch sold a metric ton more than the Wii U so I'm sure they would sell a lot of copies of the trilogy.

I beat Metroid Prime last night, took me 19 hours to complete and I had a 75% rating for collecting items.

I didn't know that the reward for collecting all the artifacts would be an intense fight with Meta Ridley. Took me awhile to beat him because my missiles kept hitting the side of his chest instead of direct impacts so the fight went longer than expected. I did enjoy this fight but I feel like the fight against Ridley in Super Metroid was better because there was more tension to it, it felt more personal.

The Impact Crater was an unusual and strange place but it was cool to explore through it. This place definitely felt more alien-like than the rest of the areas in the game. I wish it was a little longer like how Tourian was in Super Metroid. The Metroid Prime's appearance in this state was quite unsettling as it looks like a weird deformed human face, little did I know you'd end up fighting this thing's face in it's final form later on.

Like with I felt with Super Metroid, this is a game I wish I grew up playing but instead I had a PS2 and Xbox. Metroid Prime 1 was truly a game ahead of it's time, especially in the years from 2000-2003 when FPS games were still trying to find their identity in the PS2/Xbox/Gamecube era.

Final thoughts, I still can't get over the visor effects when you're near bright flashes of light. I tested this out some more in the underwater frigate location where it looks the best. You can see the entirety of Samus's face if you get it in the right spot and Samus will blink and react to it as well.

On to Metroid Prime 2 I went immediately after I finished the first game. I hope this game is just as good. I've already met Dark Samus and can't wait to see how this goes.

They're already gonna release Reach without Forge on PC. We're off to a good start.
...................................... LOL
They said that they need to “tune” the Forge mechanics for the PC version of Reach even though the forge tools are perfectly fine.

The one Halo game that solely depends on Forge is not being shipped with it on release.

What exactly have they supposedly changed in the MCC? Sound is pretty bad and the exact same problems of poor connectivity and overall bullshit still exist just the same.

Correction: the Halo 2 remaster is the first one I've played that actually feels snappy and good. Got 23 kills in my first team slayer game there.

Eh, I don't see myself playing much more of this. I only renewed my Gold for one month to play with my brother last night. It was fun to get in some games with him but the state of the game just doesn't seem to be that great. Overall performance is pretty bad, the hit registration is kind of embarrassing for 2019, the amount of quitters / AFKers is insane, matches are rarely balanced (like, we were split-screening and ran into the same 4 man team of American tryhards repeatedly - all with twitch links in their name, identical tags and just overall toxic behavior). Let's hope they do better for the PC release.
Understandable, I haven’t played in long time for similar reasons you listed.

343 better prioritize fixing the current issues with the MCC before they release any of the games on the PC. What we don’t need is another disastrous launch for this game and repeat history.
"But - But we are doing s-staggered launches. There is n-no way we can screw up this time!"
And somehow I expect 343 Steps Backwards Industries to break something, again.

I live about 2 hours from the coast. Along PCH where I go, there's spots where you can park your car and just enjoy the views, weather, and sounds of the ocean. Every once in a while I will drive out there and enjoy all of that. In that moment I feel so relaxed, stress-free, and I feel like all of my troubles are nonexistent when I'm there.

Beat the Omega Pirate, he was the most annoying boss I’ve fought so far.

Now I have to collect the rest of the Chozo Artifacts. I have 5 more to find.

Been awhile since I played the MCC.

Is the hit detection still shit?
Yeah.
Colossus and Tombstone are in 8v8 now but I still haven't gotten to play either
343 better fix that before even thinking about releasing the games on PC

13 hours into Metroid Prime 1 so far and I had my first death. I was planning on finishing the game without dying once. Oh well.

Found some more Chozo artifacts as well. I have half of them collected so far.

Get something heavy that no one else has?



Get some Strya into ya
Do they even sell Holdens here in the US?
Maybe, I think they are rebadged under Chevvy
I’ve only seen a couple Pontiac G8s here with Holden badges.
I just looked up what that was and thats literally a Commodore with a fancy nose. Why do they do this?
Some Pontiacs were just rebadged Holdens and Vauxhalls. Look at the ‘05 Pontiac GTO and ‘05 Vauxhall Monaro as a prime example, and the one you just listed.

Im trying to like them but the front just looks....too wide.

Your money dude its still a nice car. Ever thought of shifting to a newer Mustang?
I’m not that big of a fan of the new mustangs. They look nice but if I’m gonna have a mustang, it’s gonna be an older one (1970) just because of how cool they are. The newer mustangs just don’t do it for me.

The only thing I like about them is the turn signals and how they move across the taillights.
The looks and the performance are what get me.  Don't get me wrong dude I not here to insult you car taste and the end of the day your a fellow gearhead. Were all on the same team.


I would have to say the newer Challengers are the only muscle car that tried to keep it's historyit it's looks
The Challenger I would get but my aunt and cousin already have one so it’s burnt out. My aunt also has the Trackhawk too.
