I already checked those and the Tomb Raider 20th Anniversary Edition is just slightly too wide to fit ;A;

General / Video Game Protector Boxes
« on: April 12, 2018, 12:05:51 pm »
Hey everyone.
I've been buying protector boxes for my games recently but I've run into a bit of a snag. I'm having a lot of difficulty finding boxes for 2 games in particular:
1) Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year edition (5 5/8 x 7 1/16 x 1/2) - the problem I've been having is that its like 1/8 larger than normal dvds
2) The Legend of Zelda Breathe of the Wild: Expolorer's Edition (5 3/8 x 7 1/2 x 14/16)
anyone know a place that does custom protector case orders or game cases with similar sizes?

I'd play the shit out of laser tag if it was the same price. I think the problem (at least for me) is now that I'm 25 the play areas feel so small compared to when I was like 8.

There's a Japanese game for the original Xbox where the US President pilots a mech and fights terrorists. I could 100% see them remaking that game with Obama.

Modern Video Games / Re: What would you like to see in Fallout 5?
« on: September 28, 2017, 02:06:37 pm »Ideally: Bring back additional rpg mechanics, put in meaningful dialogue and sidequest choices with interesting story lines, make siding with different factions have more of an impact, less dev time, and use a new engine
Realistically: Todd Howard will hype us up for FO5, only to end up being another ehhhhhhh game within 6 months of release.
Bethesda's internally developed products from the last few years have been dissapointing, and i don't expect much to change, especially from a management standpoint.
A great compromise would be to have one mode where its traditional rpg stats or a simplified mode where its like fallout 4

1) More quests. Literally the best part about Fallout was just walking in a random direction and finding new towns or quests.
2) Fix the difficulty. The harder difficulties simply became a chore. Enemies took so much damage that combat became tedious. On the hardest difficulty setting, melee combat was literally impossible.
3) Have the outpost system actually mean something
4) Make halfway decent DLC. Bought all the dlc for fallout 4 and never even got close to completing any of it.

Classic Video Games / NES Classic Help
« on: September 28, 2017, 01:38:35 pm »
Hey everyone,
I bought an NES Classic for my brother and he's having some trouble with it. Basically, every game that we try to play looks glitched as hell (the colors are wrong, the sound is weird, and words are illegible. I bought it from a store and they plugged it into a TV at the store to show me it worked. I only cleaned the outside of it when I got home by lightly spraying windex on a rag then wiping it down. The only things I can think of it being are 1) the cables (I threw out the tv cable it came with because it was disgusting and grabbed one I had lying around) or 2) his TV which is fairly new.
Thoughts/suggestions?

Hardware and Tech / PSP Mod
« on: May 01, 2016, 11:28:09 am »
Hello! I was hoping someone can help me mod my PSP.
I want to mod my PSP to play Valkyria Chronicles with the english patch (I'm gonna use the only one I know of/the most well known one https://vc3translationproject.wordpress.com/)
Here's the thing, I have no idea what I'm doing and I would be forever thankful if someone could help me.
I have some decent computer background skills, but only with Macs and Windows XP (that's the last format I used for windows) so I have some understanding of the instructions but by and large I don't know what I'm doing.
Thanks in advance!

Modern Video Games / Question About Total War Atilla
« on: July 07, 2015, 12:56:37 pm »
Hello Everyone!
So please bear with me for a minute while I get to my question.
I'm a huge fan of the Total War series. It's hands down my favorite RTS series and I've played everything from Empire to Rome 2. I bought Rome 2 when it was on sale AND MAN DID I REGRET IT! The gameplay was fine, but the camera controls were completely different and super awkward, and the graphics were so bad that it made me feel physically ill. I usually don't complain about graphics, but this is an exception because Shogun 2 and Fall of the Samurai both look and run very well on my computer. Plus, I'm pretty sure the game isn't working properly because enemies are invisible until they are quite literally 40 feet away.
I'm just about finished with Shogun 2 and the dlc so I thought I might give Atilla a try, but I don't want to make the same mistake. How does Atilla compare to Shogun 2/Rome 2?

« on: April 25, 2015, 07:02:23 pm »
The best thing EA could have done was give it to the guys who made Bad Company.
The only way I see this game going wrong, is if Visceral tries to make it like Battlefield 3, with the classes being very similar. But I don't see that happening since it be really weird to force things like scopes, combat flashlights, and grenade launchers into the star wars universe when they weren't really there to begin with.
They'll probably make it more like Bad Company, with defined classes that have their own roles.
What I hope they do is make a faithful remake of Battlefront 2, with better graphics, more balanced classes and units, bigger maps, and add more bots on the field. SO HELP ME GOD IF THERE AREN'T BOTS!
Also, do away with that verterancy bullshit that was in the second game.

Classic Video Games / Re: Your favourite console, and why?
« on: April 15, 2015, 03:02:26 pm »Although I have some great memories from my SNES and Gamecube, I'm going to cast my vote for my good old Game Boy Advance. Its vast library of SNES remakes eventually led me to buying an actual SNES later, and the e-Reader's small library of NES ports also influenced my decision to purchase an NES a few years after that. Not to mention it has backwards compatibility with the Game Boy/Color library. As such, my top 20 will draw from all 3 generations of Game Boy games.
1. Pokémon Gold
2. Pokémon Emerald
3. Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones
4. Super Mario Bros. Deluxe
5. Final Fantasy V Advance
6. Super Mario Advance 2
7. Super Mario Advance 4
8. Pokémon FireRed
9. Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls
10. e-Reader
11. Advance Wars 2
12. Super Mario Land 2
13. Pokémon Red/Blue
14. Mario Tennis (GBC)
15. Ms. Pac-Man: Special Color Edition
16. Tetris DX
17. Bomberman Quest
18. Super Mario Advance 3
19. Yoshi
20. Pokémon Trading Card Game
Okay that's total bullshit. You can't call the pokemon games different games because they're all the same game!
