All Things Videogame Related: EXTREME VS!!
Tking22 replied to Keith's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
To be fair that complaint could be lobbed at a number of upcoming PS4 titles. Last of Us 2, The Outer Worlds, Death Stranding, etc. Every one of these titles could have been a PS5 launch title, with FFVII supposedly still being multi-platform, coming to PC and Xbox One as well, I'd say Last of Us 2 would be the bigger PS5 selling point. FFVII is just a flashy, multi-part remake, with vague details on the length and content, Last of Us 2 is the sequel to a mega hit with a massive, dedicated fanbase, was one of the most praised and highly rated games last and this gen, and is an original Sony owned IP. Either way, all of the titles mentioned could've been PS5 titles, and will undoubtedly get a PS5 remastered or "ultimate" edition, so for me it's hard to muster excitement when an unarguably better version will be coming out soon. But you have a PS4 right? I can understand PC gaming over, say, having an Xbox One, since Microsoft is pretty awesome with the PC and Xbox One parity, but Sony exclusives, like Nintendo games, can only be enjoyed on their hardware. PC games have their exclusives, sure, but Sony brings a lot of stuff to the table that in my opinion, makes owning at least a Sony console mandatory, I'd say the same with the Switch as well at this point, I'm currently playing Link's Awakening and it's frakking amazing. PC exclusive games aren't bound by console hardware, so there's no limit to them, and there never will be, graphic quality will progress as the devs themselves handle it, nothing to do with console games. Multi-plat titles, on the other hand, are a different story. As we've seen, titles coming to PC, Playstation and Xbox have far less distance between them, and some titles get stiffed on their PC ports, thankfully Microsoft and a few other seem to being putting the time in on better PC ports, but Ubisoft and some of the others doing mutli-plat titles seem to put far more thought into the console versions. PC versions will always look better sure, but that's a given, and has been for a while, I'm not sure what boost you would expect, the limit is usually just your hardware. I personally would like to see a focus on frame rates for next-gen consoles. Higher resolution games are fine and all, but if it runs like crap, and at this point, 30 frames per second, that's an issue for me. I think 60fps should be the standard for next-gen, but nope, just higher resolutions. I can't help but praise Gears 5, beautiful game, buttery smooth 60fps for ALL modes, crossplay with PC, and the PC port was absolutely phenomenal, every bell and whistle you could want was there.- 6837 replies

That's the Mezco original Wonder Woman, the one above is their take on a "classic" or Lynda Carter Wonder Woman. This one's a pass for me, I want the Mezco original one shown at Comic-Con above, the one with the skirt. This Lynda Carter one looks good, but it's not for me, that Mezco original one is more what I'm looking for for my Mezco One:12 Justice League.

No, Bruce Wayne is in it, but he's just a kid when the events of the film go down. It's really not that kind of film, there's no hints there are any superheros or villains in this universe, and no metahumans or people with powers either.

I'm on board, I liked both the first films, and most of Kevin Smith's connected universe movies. Confirm Rosario Dawson and my butt's in the theater opening night.

It's gotten way too egregious with the more popular lines like Marvel and Star Wars. It sucks, if you don't pre-order you don't get the figure at a decent price, if you do pre-order the figure and buy in on the first release you'll probably just end up feeling duped by a future, better, more substantial release. I love Bandai's stuff, but they suck.

Agreed, hot damn do I need him, looks bulky, very Batman Arkham influenced. Cable, the Mezco original, does look a bit more meh then expected. Gambit looks pretty decent though, I may be on board for him. I'm also collecting a Mezco original Justice League, so I'm very much in for their Wonder Woman and Aquaman, they both look good to me. Also, wow, that Bluto looks better and better with each new set of pics we get.

And of course, after half-ass Endgame Cap, we get a better final battle Endgame Cap, with all the crap he should've come with in the first place. How fun. I just paid for a third party add-on set with several different versions of mjolnir, lightning effects, and a battle damaged half shield, so this release can frakk right off.

Unfortunately I already bought Demoniacal Fit Ginyu, but he's not that great so it's not a big loss. Behold, official Figuarts Ginyu, and Oozaru Vegeta! They both look good, Oozaru is unexpected, but I'll take it. Fortunately I never bit on the other two Demoniacal Fit Ginyu Force members, no need to even consider them now with an official team probably on the way, at least we'll get a legit, official Ginyu, the DF one was floppy and disappointing.

Damn, Nebs looks good! I'm glad I grabbed her. Now I just need NY to get off their asses and ship mine, prep in progress for 6 days, again! They did this with Yoda too, almost two weeks just to ship, NY has been dragging their asses lately, more then usual which is crazy.

Great shots, but Tyler Hoechlin looks tiny next to Routh and Welling :). Oh well, I'll still love it and he's still a pretty fantastic Supes and Clark. Question: Which Supermen are in this? Answer: All of them. Except Cavill and Dean Cain I guess.

I considered getting a third Sith Trooper, then tracking down a gold necklace to make my own, just for fun, but my OCD won't allow it, Hip-hop Stormie was original trilogy, not sequel trilogy. VERY close though, I'm sure before release I'll add a third to keep sealed for just in case, sequel trilogy Hip-hop Trooper can be a thing too.

Yeah Rey looks a bit meh, I'm in for just two Sith Troopers, and my wallet is appreciative. I already bought Last Jedi Rey, and I have both of the previous Kylo figures, for reasons I can't remember myself, so it's a pass on those two, but yeah, those red Sith Troopers sure do look purdy. I may go in on several of those snazzy Tamashii Stages though, I'm a sucker for a nice custom Tamashii Stage.

And yet there's no word of Jessica De Gouw, the CW-Arrowverse's actual Huntress returning? WTF? Why did she NEVER return? She even appeared in some of the .5 between season comics.

This Roy VF-4 is a pass for me, this scheme just isn't doing it for me. That said, it's good to see a new release, but I'd be far more interested in M&M VF-4s.

The Unlicensed Third Party Transformers Thread
Tking22 replied to slaginpit's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
FansToys don't look anymore animation accurate to me, they just look bigger, and are more expensive. IF I wanted an MP Menasor, which I don't, I'd go X-Transbots, they look just as animation accurate, more-so in some cases, and I like the bot mode scale far more, FansToys are way, way, way too big in bot mode.- 9240 replies

Gotham ended with a full shot of their Batman, it didn't look great, but it was full on Batman, no shadows or other nonsense hiding him. That said, this was Gotham, like Smallville, there was zero chance it wasn't going to end with a little taste of their take on the character, but that's it, just a taste. I just think Warner is stupid when it comes to the Batman property for film and TV, like, for some reason, that's still the ONE character they refuse to have multiple live action versions of, even alternate universe versions. I think it's because they know Batman is their most popular character, but again, to me, that's just a sign he should be everywhere he can be, Batman sells whether people are tired of him or not. This odd mentality of having him only on the big screen is once again, odd. As I mentioned above it appears WB is still dead set on NO Batman, or Batmen period, in live action outside film. It's stupid, even alternate universe versions seem out of the question for whatever reason. Three versions of Superman, still not a single take on Batman.

It was indeed, I'm ready for another season, also.

Yeah Kevin Conroy himself is set to play an older Bruce Wayne, Bruce Wayne though, not Batman, CW still isn't allowed to have a Batman in costume, for whatever idiotic reason. Multiple seasons of multiple shows and we still haven't had a damn CW Batman, it's insane the lengths Warner will go to to prevent having another live action Batman. But Superman? We can have three of him apparently, even one who was a former film Superman. This dancing around Batman CW is still doing is maddening. Who gives a crap? Batman is whored out in basically every other form of media DC puts out, why not CW's shows?

Dark Crystal age of resistance on Netflix
Tking22 replied to Bolt's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
There's plenty, plenty, plenty of time between where the series ends, and the original film begins. What about Deet's story and her darkening infection? What about the Garthim War? How do the Skeks get the Crystal "working" again like normal so to speak, by the time the film starts? What happens to Rian? How do the entirety of the Gelfing people fall after uniting? I feel there's more then enough story for at least several more seasons. Yes. Or, work within that timeline on something new and interesting, like the first season. Flip expectations, make a story for the season people think is shallow, and they know, then surprise them like this first season, which was more then just a lead up to the creation of the Garthim. Knowing how it all ends was already a criticism lobbed at the first season, if it didn't apply there, I don't see how it would apply to further seasons. Also, the big mcguffin, the crystal shard, just popped up at the end, there's zero chance that doesn't have another little adventure before landing where it should be for the start of the film. Either way, Henson studios already revealed they have content and ideas for a second season, and are ready for it, it all depends on Netflix and how well the first season's viewership was.- 88 replies

I missed the PO on PS4 Spidey Advanced Suit so I just went ahead and slightly, slightly overpaid for one off Ebay, will have it soon, looks good in hand. I loved the game to death, phenomenal, one of the best superhero games made, I wasn't too hot on the Insomniac "White Spider" suit at first, but as I played and got a couple of hours in it grew on me, I love the look.

The Transformers Thread (licensed) Next
Tking22 replied to mikeszekely's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Are you going to pick up MP Soundwave? I recommend him, and if you can, get the Hasbro or Hasbro Asia version, you'll get all the tape bots in one package. That said, I almost guarantee there will be a + version announced at some point in the near future, I don't know if a more cartoon accurate color scheme is of interest to you, but yeah, that's definitely going to happen at some point.- 16946 replies
