  1. Who do you think would have won if the fight between Ned Stark and Jamie Lannister had continued without any one interfering?
  2. I play the game, but I play it on Xbox One, not on PC.

    gaming Silent Hill

    Sadly, I don't think I ever finished playing the first one. I most familiar with SH 2 and 3.
  4. I have heard people say Jamie Lannister(before he lost his hand) was arguably the best fighter in Game of Thrones, but both the Hound and Barristan were great fighters as well.

    gaming Silent Hill

    I was going to make a topic specifically about the new chapter of Dead By Daylight, but I figured why not just make it about the Silent Hill series in general since there has been rumors lately about a revival of the series on the PS5. https://gamerant.com/silent-hill-ps5-development-dead-daylight-news-rumors/ So, Dead by Daylight is going to be adding Pyramid Head as a killer and Cheryl Mason as a survivor. I think they did a pretty good job with the map. So, what is your favorite Silent Hill game? And what are your thoughts on the next Silent Hill game?

    technology Upgrading an Old PC

    So, I don't have very much experience with building PCs. The most I have done is installed a new PSU and a GPU. The PC I currently have is about 8 years old. It's an old pre-built HP PC. The exact model is a p7-1299c. https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03360581 I was wondering whether it would be possible to use the same case and install a new motherboard and CPU in it. The reason I want to upgrade it is because I really want to be able to play VRChat (Not in VR Mode mind you, just in desktop mode). I also don't want to spend too much money in doing so(I'm poor...). Can any one help me? Or have any advice to give?
  8. I can't say I am the biggest fan of either ones of these genres. If I had to choose I prefer rap. I like listening to Tupac, Biggie, Ice Cube...even modern rap music like Drake, Post Malone, LiL Lotus, Juice WRLD(RIP). I have kind of warmed up to rap a little more since Rock is virtually non-existent in the mainstream.
  9. I hope I don't sound like I am picking on you here, but The Last of Us also has puzzles and enemies to fight in order to move on to the next section of the game. Also, what better reason do you need to be an alcoholic then to have had your daughter die in your arms? In my opinion, this is the saddest scene in the entire game.
  10. I bought a PS3 at the the end of last gen to play this and some of the other PS3 exclusives. Having played the game, I think it was one of the most overrated games I have ever played. When the box has 10 out of 10 ratings from all these gaming publications, it tends to raise my expectations for the game. In my opinion, I don’t think it lived up to the hype. However, I am probably in the minority here. I just didn’t connect with the story of Joel and Ellie the way other people seem to.
  11. 1. Given that the United States has not been testing at the rate we should be testing at this point in time, it’s possible that the death toll is less than what they say it is. However, it could also be other way around. They could be under reporting deaths. 2. A person who has Covid-19 are asymptomatic so advising people to wear masks and gloves makes sense. They could be infected and they would not even know it. 3. The only people who have antibodies are those who have already had the virus. It’s not possible to have immunity to a virus a person has never been exposed to before. 4. Prediction are based on what we have seen within the last few months. For example, Florida was one of the last states to close and has already opened. I can make a prediction that they are going to see a spike in cases due to their lack of social distancing. It’s basic cause and effect. 5. I think it’s a fair comparison as it was a worldwide pandemic that hit Spain especially hard(it should be noted that the Spanish Flu did not originate from Spain). The Flu constantly mutates and adapts to infect people hence why there is no cure for it. For example, when we develop a vaccine for Covid-19, this will not work against a future strain of the flu virus.
  12. I recently finished watching the anime "Bloom Into You." It was so good. Easily one of the best yuri anime I have seen. I guess that's not saying much when the only other ones I have seen are Strawberry Panic and Sakura Trick, but still it was great. It had so many cute moments in it. I really hope it gets another season.
  13. Did any one play the Resident Evil 3 Remake? If so, what did you think of it? I really want to play it, but I am going to wait for a price drop(I’m cheap). Also, what do you think of the news about Capcom Remaking Resident Evil 4?
  14. I am not a fan of the genre, but I do like the song “Nemesis,” by Arch Enemy.
  15. In your opinion, who do you think was the best fighter in Game of Thrones? Why?
  16. I watched it awhile back and to be honest it was harder to get into than some of the other shows I have watched. The first season is a bit slow, but it does get better.

    general media Venom

    I think Venom is a pretty cool character, but I don’t really follow the comics. My only real exposure to this character is through the Spider-Man animated series, video games(Maximum Carnage and MvC), and the films.
  18. This is not mine, but someone posted this on another forum and it made me laugh. “What’s with all these mother f’n snakes, in this this mother f’n grave.
  19. Did you know that the 19 in COVID refers to the year(2019) this specific strain of Coronavirus was discovered? If you didn’t know, well now you know.

      Are you talking about Kellyanne Conway? I saw that on Fox News. I think she knows, but she did it on purpose.

  20. If we are taking about successful video game movies then the Sonic the Hedgehog movie has done well. I would second the Mortal Kombat movie. The fight scenes are cool and still hold up well.
  21. So, I watched season 3 of Attack on Titan recently and I was curious of what people thought of Levi’s big decision in the series? Do you think he made the right call? What would have you done were you in his situation and why?
  22. I thought the film Underwater with Kristen Stewart was actually a pretty good movie. It was basically Alien, but underwater rather than in space.
  23. The impression I get from people who aren’t gamers is that gamers lack ambition in life. I do sort of feel like this is true. Video games are a waste of time in my opinion and your skills do not translate to the real world. Sure there are exceptions, but I think that is the exception rather than the rule. Does gaming automatically make you a loser? No, but it can. I think as long as it does not affect other aspects of your life, gaming in moderation is fine.
  24. I think people have reacted to the virus the way they have because it has been mishandled since the very beginning. The President and his administration have known about the virus since at least late January of this year. They have had about six weeks to start actively doing something about the virus and are only now beginning to take it seriously. It did not help that Trump and his administration downplayed the virus from the beginning. In fact, he initially claimed it would go away with warmer weather in April and that it was a hoax created by the Democrats to make him look bad. People are literally dying and he's more concerned with being re-elected. His administration also refused testing kits for the Coronavirus from the WHO because they wanted the CDC to create their own testing kits. This caused a delay in the testing kits being available to the people. As of right now, I think about 18,000 people have been tested for the virus. Meanwhile, South Korea has been testing about 10,000 people a day. The United States is supposed to be one of the greatest Countries in the world yet we are woefully unprepared to deal with this? Really? It just blows my mind. Also, people strictly blaming the media is also kind of mind-blowing to me. I think the President should be held accountable for how they have handled the situation. People will praise him for the good, but refuse to blame him for the bad. Not to sound negative, but that's what has been on my mind since this whole thing started. However, I don't think things are all doom and gloom. I do think things will get better, but we are not off to the best start right now.
  25. I think I would have to say Miles "Tails" Prower from Sonic the Hedgehog. #uWu
