“Yes.”

As is customary of older anime, be aware most if not all of these contain any of the following: graphic violence, graphic nudity, high amounts of foul language. In other words, its probably not for your grandma or your living room TV.

Bubblegum Crisis (DO NOT start with Tokyo 2040, start with the original OVA first, it has better aesthetics and art) is always a recommendation from me. Along with the related series Bubblegum Crash, AD Police Files, Parasite Dolls, and A.D. Police: To Protect and Serve.

Armitage III has a cyberpunk aesthetic but on Mars, the story isn’t perfect but it’s interesting enough. The original, not the movie with Kiefer Sutherland which is just the OVAs cut down into a movie.

Dominion Tank Police was a fun series.

Goku Midnight Eye is all attitude and little substance. I really liked it, but don’t watch it expecting an intricate plot. Its just entertainment, not more. But its cool entertainment.

Cyber City Oedo 808 is another one that isnt that deep but oozes pure classic cyberpunkium.

They intentionally wanted to make the shot-for-shot remake fail so they can point at it “still failing” and continue to ruin more remakes.

Please clarify what game you are talking about in the title of the post next time, talking about Colonel Miller had me thinking this was about Metal Gear’s Colonel Miller, the father of Kazuhira Miller.

Ah yes, Quake III At Home But With Mecha.

This one’s Axis. Good times, though I didn’t get to really play it that much.

Good. SteamDB is completely dead being bought by NexusMods.

Who wants to bet the first thing to go will be concurrent user count? Or perhaps I will need to make an account (for data harvesting) or pay a subscription to view the numbers.

IMO too expensive. Especially since it cannot play 3DS games. If it could handle 3DS also, at its price I’d probably pick one up. But for now just playing on an R36H gets me most of the way there for way less cost ($40 USD).

I am having a hard time telling if this is a rat or a wolf. Is this a Were-Rat? The front teeth are throwing me off. Still cool regardless.

This is such a Japanese business thing to do. I’m not even surprised. I understand the need to protect your employees, especially when Japan has a history of whackos damaging businesses that sometimes result in deaths, but this is going a bit far IMO. I think they could comply with Japan’s new law about worker protection without needing to go this route.

In Japan, laws have pretty much always been dictated by big businesses, just look at their defamation laws. Even if what you say is true, if it harms the company in any way, you will still be arrested and are basically guaranteed to lose a case in Japan for that.

I am interested to see if they try to implement this outside Japan. I mean, Japanese businesses almost always try to apply Japanese law outside Japan (most famously, Nintendo), but still interesting to see if it happens.

Well according to Sony, you don’t own any even if you paid for them on their storefront.

Piracy has never been tried successfully as theft, because it does not deprive the original owner of their lawful copy. It has always been tried as Copyright Infringement.

Its not the source code, and nobody ever suggested or thought buying the game meant you owned the source code. What you buy is a copy of the compiled code and assets, which is what everyone assumed.

The problem is how do you enforce deletion of the copy if it gets resold? Thats why games use licenses now, it was the path of least resistance that also gave the publishers more control than they should have had.

I used to really dislike Retroarch, but ever since they started defaulting to the ozone UI, I have less complaints about the usability of it. Still prefer standalones because their performance is usually better, personally, but it isnt as bad as it used to be IMO.

This game has absolutely horrendous performance problems.

It baffles me that people are rating this higher than games like KOTOR and Republic Commando.

Guess this is what they had in mind asking all those chibi questions in their surveys.

I always suggested they rework the Sufrace Mode into a Fire Emblem-styled Strategy RPG spin-off game and use the chibi models in that. A one time purchase $40 game with a story that coincides with that of tha game would be pretty cool IMO.

Hope this doesn’t mean they arent making more Outpost Tales though. I need a full 1000 episode, 24 minutes per episode show from that.

EDIT: Spelling.

Just for everyone to know:

42 is the maximum age for voluntary enlistment with the US Army where it was formerly 35. The maximum age for the Selective Service remains 25. This means the Army now matches the maximum voluntary enlistment age that the other branches of the US military have already had. The US Army temporarily did this in 2006 during the Iraq War, but lowered to back to their former normal of 35 in 2016.

Historically, the US has involuntarily conscripted for the Civil War up to age 45, WWI up to age 30 initially but was later expanded to 45, and WWII registered up to age 64 but they mostly picked only up to about age 40.

In other words: THIS ONLY APPLIES TO VOLUNTARY ENLISTMENT WITH THE US ARMY. IT DOES NOT APPLY TO SELECTIVE SERVICE.

I think CoD peaked with World at War.

I stopped playing after that. I played Advanced Warfare and Infinite Warfare and thought they were cool but not what I expected from CoD. Also played CoD WW2 and that game isn’t even a shred of what WaW is.

Let me guess, just like the FallOut 2 DMCA a few weeks ago, which Bethesda rescinded after learning about it, some third party that uses AI to search for DMCA violations filed yet another false takedown. Again. Most likely without Microsoft even knowing about it.

EDIT: Its the exact same third party as the one that Bethesda overturned after learning about it earlier. I expect this one to be overturned soon as well.
