@noyoushutthefuckupdad@Moon My first introduction to the DK rap was in Smash Bros. Melee I kinda liked it as a set piece there for the level. I can't do smash bros. anymore I got burned out on the series after 1000's of hours of melee and now I get nauseated thinking about playing that game. I kinda hit the same issue with counter strike but I quit when I realized the game went to shit with the introduction of F2P and the new ELO system with global leaderboards is just encouraging rampant cheating. Used to be bad enough you'd have people cheat to get global elite rank and now it's ELO score as well so more clout chasing.
> I can't do smash bros. anymore I got burned out on the series after 1000's of hours of melee
Me too lmao. It was my only game for a long while and I, quite literally, had over 1000 hours in it. Brawl sucked ass. 4 was nice but there was something missing and I just really couldn't anymore at Ultimate
@olmitch@coolboymew@ooignignoktoo@Moon I used to have an internet friend who worshipped Smash Bros Melee. we're not friends any longer; he went insane during the 2016 election season.
also, I can confirm the stereotype that Smash Bros players smell like shit. I was at EVO 2019 and their whole section of GameCubes and CRT televisions smelled like a fart from a dead pig's asshole.
Yeah I played Brawl at a friends house and hated it. I do have a factory sealed copy of Smash Ultimate for Wii U that I got no intention of playing. Now that physical media is becoming obsoleted and retialers are planning on stopping to carry it and the Wii U is no longer got a shop or online. I'm probably gonna flip the sealed game for some money. I can just soft mod the wii U anyways if I ever got interest in playing smash. Though I should buy Kirby and the Rainbow Curse it's really the only Wii U game I want but don't have yet.
Smash was the first game I got with my Cube as well. The gamecube had a lot of solid games at the time it was a hated console and considered kiddy but now everyone wants cube stuff and are paying absurd prices for it.
Hard to say what my favorite game in my collection is currently that I still have. I have contemplated unloading my cube collection because I don't really play the games anymore and I can play isos on dolphin with a usb gamecube controller adapter.
Smash Bros. was a fun game when I was a kid especially when you got all the neighbor hood kids together to duke it out.
Tourney smash players are kinda cringe since Smash was never really designed to be a competitive game. There are way better fighters designed around that scene. Typically the Capcom fighter games.
I still need to try the new Killer Instinct that came out awhile ago but I haven't got around to it yet. I did enjoy the crap out of the SNES one even though Cinder is technically a broken and overpowered character since he has an unblockable attack.
My cousins and I spent many nights with original Smash Bros and Diddy Kong Racing. That is a game that really doesn't get its do. Mario Kart 64 looks and plays like it's from a previous generation compared to Diddy Kong. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjKnAnBZJCg
@olmitch@noyoushutthefuckupdad@Moon@coolboymew Diddy Kong racing was a cool game I never owned it personally but played it at other people's houses and enjoyed it. I really liked the title theme song for that game.
Rare was only one to excel heavily in the audio department. I know Tommy Tallarico like to fellate himself because of his music he made for Earthworm Jim but David Wise was in a league of his own.
I remember having this start playing in Truth and Reconcilation.
It's a really epic song even more so if you're playing on legendary all skulls on solo. CE is probably my favorite Halo game of the set. I like Halo 3 as well but CE just has something about it that really sets it apart from the rest.
I don't have much nostalgia for the campaign. I went to a church youth group in high school for a time which had the coolest space. It was a super church so they had a whole separate building for the youth group across town. It was basically a private arcarde. They had 2 player Gamecubes hanging from the ceiling, pool tables, and then a room off to the side with bean bag chairs, a couple of xboxes on big screen TVs, on a LAN. so once a week I go to play 4x4 Blood Gulch. It was amazing.
All of the music was hummable as fuck, and the sound design made it exciting in was that perhaps only the first Halo game made me feel since. This clip, the people playing suck. When my cousins played there was almost a constant whistle of heat syncing missiles flying around. So fucking exciting.
I never did a LAN I did 4 player local split screen but had a lot of fun playing blood gulch and hang em' high with my older brother and his high school friends.
