  2. Naoya Inoue and Nonito Donaire are gonna face off Nov. 7th in the WBSS bantamweight finals, I'm hyped as hell.

  3. Haohmaru from SamSho being a guest character in SCVI is gonna be awesome. The fights between him and Mitsurugi should be fun.

  4. Saw The Sum of All Fears today. Can't think of the last time I saw Morgan Freeman die in a movie.

  5. Hero is coming to Smash Ultimate later today! There's maintenance schedule today from 5:10-6:10 PST btw so expect the release window to be soon after.

  6. Saw the 1986 Running Scared the other day, really fun movie.

  7. Spider-Man: Far From Home has now passed $1B, meaning all three MCU movies this year have now done so. Jesus.

  8. The new Overwatch hero Sigma looks super interesting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onplsJSdp4A

      I love the character origin trailer for him, I'm excited to see what kind of abilities he has.

      Giving Zarya a run for her money, it looks like.

  9. So atm we know Marvel is giving us Blade, Black Widow, Fantastic Four, Thor 4, Eternals, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Doctor Strange 2, Black Panther 2, Guardians of the Galaxy 3, Captain Marvel 2, and they mentioned mutants which might mean X-Men. This is gonna be dope.

      As long as we keep Gunn, Waikiki, and the Russos on the line-up, this will be dope.

      Can only hope Black Widow has success after Johannson's little Twitter stunt.

    3. Shradow

      Shradow

      I actually hadn't realized that James Gunn had been rehired, so that's awesome.

    4. Shradow

      Shradow

      Oh also Mahershala Ali as Blade is gonna be dope, I loved him in Alita.

  10. Ooh, role queue is getting added to Overwatch Quick/Comp play (and old style Quick Play is being added to the Arcade or something). I might have to try and play that some more.

    1. Shradow

      Also fuck yeah Reinhardt is getting a passive that reduces knockback by 30% against him.

  11. The opening cinematic for Fire Emblem: Three Houses is pretty cool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwkVA8GlMgE

      Kazooie

      It's weird to be, like... Really excited for a Fire Emblem game again. But I am and it's awesome. I can't wait for 3 Houses.

    2. Shradow

      Shradow

      Same. And it's weird how much opinions for the game have turned around. When it was just the school stuff it seems like a lot of people weren't that excited, then when it was revealed there'd be a timeskip with a very serious story and the school stuff was only a portion of the game things turned right around. It's also nice that it's a simple case of all three paths being in one game, they're not pulling another Fates that has 3 separate games.

  12. There's gonna be a CG Lupin the Third movie and it looks really cool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uw7jrQQK3Mc

  13. I dunno if anyone here watches boxing but if you do, definitely check out Naoya Inoue if you haven't already. Dude's nicknamed "The Monster" and is a three-weight world champ with an 18-0 (16 KOs) record for a reason.

  14. I'm so happy with Spider-Man: Far From Home.

    1. The Chayncemaniac

      The Chayncemaniac

      I love how it turned out, perfect end to Phase 3, and the post & mid credit scenes set up really well for the start of Phase 4

  15. Is Big Brother still entertaining (relative to past seasons I mean, I'm sure there are plenty of people who never found it entertaining)? I haven't watched it in forever and I just randomly thought about it today.

    1. Blake

      Blake

      It can be entertaining, but there's a lot of pure toxicity involved at times.

      The parts where the producers cheat to help players is also a lot more blatant than in the past, especially if you watch the livestreams/follow the subreddit.

      I don't care about it, and this will be the first season in a while I totally skip, despite it being a family deal.

    2. The Chayncemaniac

      The Chayncemaniac

      This season was alright... until the racism ran rampant once the feeds went live. I'm just watching it, not really getting into it like I have in past seasons 

  16. Random question, you guys ever had banana sauce (basically Filipino ketchup)? It's really good, and I grew up on the stuff, but I dunno how popular it is to non-Filipinos.

    1. Thar

      Thar

      Can't say I have, but that sounds interesting.

  17. The current raid event in Dragalia Lost has ash drops on the boss battle and honey drops on the raid battle, allowing for legit infinite grinding. So that's nice.

      Sounds very similar to Blazon Summons in the DL raid events. You get Blazons from the boss/raid battle to pull items from a box that you can reset once you empty it (or for the first 4 boxes, once you pull the copy of the free Dragon for the event), but the box itself only has things like crafting materials and gold and a handful of equipment items and stuff, no premium currency.

      Though there is a special EX version of the raid boss that you can sometimes fight after doing Expert/Nightmare mode which goes away once you beat it until the next time you unlock it, and the reward pool for that has summoning tickets in it, albeit at a pretty rare drop rate. So with infinite grinding you could technically get a ton of summoning tickets, though it's not like it's consistent or anything.

      Btw that "first four boxes can be reset on drawing the best item in them" thing is exactly how it works in gbf too, down to the number of boxes. Same for the extra special boss that only sometimes spawns after battles. It doesn't drop tickets but it hasa very small chance to drop 1/30th of a damascus ingot

    4. Shradow

      Shradow

      Same for the EX boss in DL, it can drop Damascus Shards which 10 can be traded for an Ingot, and other similar 1/10th items. I assume GBF has a similar Unbind mechanic for weapons and stuff.

  18. So GOATS has been the meta for so long in Overwatch to the point Blizzard is gonna force a 2-2-2 team setup in the OWL. Glad they're gonna spice things up, and DPS pros will actually be able to do their thing and GOATS is not the most interesting thing to keep seeing for so long.

      A team comp setup in Overwatch that's 3 tanks and 3 supports, it's called GOATS because that's the name of the team that popularized it. It's been the meta for a long ass time.

    3. Nyx

      Nyx

      Huh. Strange, because most times that I'd play Competitive, the team would usually aim for 2 Tank, 2 Healer, and 2 Damage. We'd only go 3 Tank 3 Healer if we were losing and taking desperate measures.

    4. Shradow

      Shradow

      Well I imagine your average comp team doesn't necessarily have the coordination to run GOATS, unless you're a full premade who's practiced it or something. This is specifically a pro league change that the 2-2-2 lock is happening to I'm pretty sure.

  19. Got a profile song of what might be my favorite video game song, yay.

  20. TIL you can learn the Izuna Drop skill in Nioh by getting it as a rare drop from Jin Hayabusa, now I definitely need to go back and finish the DLC.

  21. Glad to see Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night is getting great reviews, can't wait for my physical copy to ship. ?

      And it's been many years but now we finally get to see where the "spiritual sucessor Kickstarter because we don't have the rights to just make another game in the series" trio of Mighty No. 9, Yooka-Laylee, and Bloodstained ended up. MN9 is a bad ~5/10, YL is a pretty okay ~7/10, and Bloodstained is a great ~9/10.

    3. Thar

      Thar

      MN9 being the only one of those three that got shafted by an actual sequel afterwards.

    4. Shradow

      Shradow

      I mean, it's not like MN9 didn't already invalidate itself on its own merit beforehand.

  22. Yangus' voice in DQVIII is the best.

      He's a precious cockney bean.

  23. Saw a VICE video where a guy went around breaking silly old British laws, it was really funny: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDBzi0n9Fxg

  24. There's a revival of Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader? with John Cena as the host, wtf?

    1. mido9

      mido9

      I can already see the youtube memes

      Amazing.

  25. Achievement Hunter has a hot dog machine in the office and so made a video about setting up a fake hot dog business. You can look it up on Google and it's at 4.8 stars with nearly 5000 reviews, that's fucking funny.

    1. Chaos Sonic

      Chaos Sonic
