Pokemon Bank will still continue to work, but who knows how long that will last.

It’s devastating news for Pokemon fans looking to legitimately collect every Pokemon. You essentially need online functionality to obtain every Vivillon form in X/Y. Lack of Friend Safaris is also a devastating blow to anyone trying to complete the Pokedex without importing Pokemon from other games. I

'm going to miss Wonder Trading. That’s how Gen 6 became my most played generation.

The app advises you to turn your phone over so the screen is facing the bed. The screen turns off but the game is still running. It also advises you not to place your phone under a pillow or blanket to prevent overheating.

I think Xfire and Raptr utilized XMPP.

RIP to my favorite Android app. I was being rate limited earlier. Now all I’m getting is a 401 error.

I think I remember the Giant Bomb crew discussing this game a few years ago. I’m surprised to see that it has not left Early Access. It must be the 3D Realms influence.

I’m holding out for the return of BonziBuddy.

I watched this a few days ago. The fix regarding the loading time when launching the game reminds me of my old university online portal that had a fixed load time of 5 seconds regardless of connection speed.

I’m looking forward to more videos about the progress of this project.

It’s rare for me to put over 100 hours into a game. I know I’ve done it with Burnout Paradise, Pokemon X and Rock Band 4 and a couple of others. I try to play a wider variety of games. I like platformers which are on the shorter side if you are not doing multiple playthroughs.

As long as the forums are easily searchable then this is a good move. It looks like the subreddit is in read-only mode so we haven’t lost any knowledge yet. That data should be preserved elsewhere, just in case the subreddit becomes unviewable.

Everyone should own a Harbor Freight Neon Dead Blow Hammer.

I top my popcorn with Lawry’s garlic salt. Tastes great on actual corn too.

Guitar Hero 3 introduced me to this band. Fantastic debut album. I am the Resurrection is a fantastic song. I blast it in my car pretty frequently.

Late night Uno sessions are a great way to pass the time. It’s a shame that Ubisoft’s version of the game doesn’t have cross-platform multiplayer.

For $4, I might have to double dip on Contra Anniversary Collection. It’s also on sale on Xbox for the same price.

Currently, it’s Forza Horizon 5.

All-time favorite would be Burnout Paradise. Some would even call it the game of the generation.

At least Xbox One support was longer than the original Xbox support after the 360 release.

To be fair, knowing that a film is directed by Hayao Miyazaki would be all the information that I need to figure out if I wanted to watch it. I do.

It would be interesting to see the impact on the box office numbers. They may not dip as badly after opening weekend if there is positive word of mouth.

@hybridhavoc @Los Greetings. I’m testing out replying to this comment from Mastodon as it seemed like others were having issues.

@worfamerryman Yeah, you share the board. If you are looking for side-by-side Tetris without the garbage pieces, the mode you want is Score Attack which Tetris Effect has two variations of (Modern Tetris style with holds and classic NES style Tetris). You play until someone tops out and whoever has the most points wins.

I believe the Puyo Puyo Tetris games also have this mode and a bunch of other versus modes, but most of them lean into sending garbage pieces.

@worfamerryman Tetris Effect has a co-op mode and is one of the best versions of modern Tetris that you can get.
