  1. The Bat went up for preorder this morning according to my email. Not a bad price considering it comes with Batman and Catwoman.
  2. That's how MW rolls buddy. The general feeling I get is that it's either a shot for shot remake or it's total crap for a lot of people here. There's also a lot of generalized "don't know how everyone likes X movie because I hate it" and when people actually dislike a movie it's "well, it was actually a lot better than what most people are saying." It was a good remake of a movie that wasn't that amazing to begin with.
  3. Destiny has the potential to be a truly amazing game. It's not necessarily a bad game as it is, however the problem is that the things it has don't make up for the things it lacks. There's no variety. There's no story; the grimoires are lazy. They are far too involved with the PVP side of things and blanket fixes/nerfs because of it. They've proven with Iron Banner it doesn't have to be blanketed. They have a switch that toggles power and armor. Stop breaking things in PVE. It's missing no brainer features that have to be gotten from a third party websites(LFG) or an app. Boring characters with dialogue that was pieced together from what remained of the gutting. All intricacies handled on a website. Server stability issues that have graduated into resetting modems/routers/Xbox connectivity. The Taken King is promising a lot of what should have been available at launch and people are pissed and rightly so. Just reading about this expansion makes the game feel more complete. More of what it should have been and what people were expecting at launch. Lastly, they've had to back pedal far too many times whenever Deej or Smith opened their prick mouths. Those aren't the people you want representing your company. I don't care about Activision having their nasty, greedy little hands in it. It's part of the territory. These guys are simply douchebags. I'll continue to play because I mostly have fun and I can pick it up and put it down, but I want more from it and I hope TTK delivers.
  4. Those Bandai figures are fairly inexspensive for the detail they have. Dang. Edit: Aaaaand they're sold out everytwhere it seems. =O
  5. Yeti, it looks great sir. I wish I had room like that. Soooon.Yesssss /Megatron
  6. Thanks guys. I currently have a V1 Yamato VF-1J and I briefly owned the 1/72 VF-19 and it was garbage compared to this. I didn't do much with it when I opened it, and haven't transformed it yet but it's just so perfect. I can't believe the amouunt of detail it has and the fact that everything on it is printed and not a sticker. It's also huge! It's nuts. So glad I did it.
  7. With a little help from you guys talking it up and Anubis, I picked one up and man, it's so awesome.
  8. I enjoyed it. A lot of the nuances of Guy Ritchie (Who I feel doesn't make a bad film, period.) and the trio nailed it. Music and some of the cutaways reminded me of the Ocean's films.
  9. Thanks Yeti, I appreciate it.
  10. Perhaps. Finally in a place financially where doing more than talking about buying is an actual thing for me. Thanks for the support! haha Was just looking at your website. Creeper. =P Which adapter would I ​need for the Bandai 19? Will the Arcadia work? Also, which would I need if I just wanted to display it in fighter? Thanks.
  11. You're that friend who is like "you've already talked yourself into buying it because reasons, why are you asking me? Ass." Thank you. Fulfilled by Amazon is a plus too. Done. Second valk ever. Gonna look great next to my V1 VF-1J. Haha
  12. I am very seriously considering pulling the trigger on this. Any advice on whether I should or not? Anything coming down the pipe in the 19 area I might want to wait for or is the Bandai pretty much the definitive? I just don't want to snooze on a it now and have it triple in price later.
  13. Was about to ask if $265 from Amazon was a good price. That HLJ link leads to discontinued. Is it that fast from yesterday?
  14. K. https://www.av-test.org/en/antivirus/home-windows/ That's just one site of many that utterly slams Defender. Anecdotal: I've used Kasperksy, Trend Micro, McAfee and currently use Webroot. All paid subscription versions. McAfee was the worst because it was super heavy, short of that, they've all done their jobs. I run biweekly scans with MBAR/MBAM because of a constant spigot issue because of using Vuze. I've never run into an issue. We currently use Sophos at work. If my system engineer every gets over his phobia of non-American AV companies, we'll likely move to Bitdefender. However, I've run into tons of software/false positive/security issues with free versions of AVG, Avast, and have gotten some nasty nasties with MSE. Having multiple layers of protection is great, but Defender, IMO, requires more than just itself to be worth anything.
  15. I watched it last night. I generally like the movies you guys hate. This time, we're on the same page. This movie was a steaming pile of Fox Marvel franchise abortion. Doom was a joke. Didn't know who the actor was going to be until I watched it. Toby Kebbell? Yeah, ooooook. "Wah, the world sucks 'cause the gubment, wah I need someone to love me, wah Susan doesn't look at me like she looks at Reed for the 8 seconds they develop that." Ya know, general Doom stuff except not even remotely portrayed like it should have been. It was teen-y and angsty and crap.
  16. I was like "Duke wasn't even on this page...." Has anyone seen the side by side comparison videos for the different versions of the OT? I'll say this, short of the glaring changes most people hate, the newer editions are visually striking compared to the non special edition OT. Found the link actually.
  17. My Boba Fett Kai shipped yesterday morning from HLJ. Kind of super excited to get him. I'll take a bunch of pics if you guys want to see the final product up close. HEE!
