We are all Samurai Jack.

In the end, we are all FOOLISH SAMURAI.

It feels weird to have people mention my name in the podcast, haha.

That "stand alone" and "complex" thing is really cool, damn.

 

[Grexeno]

What BBboy nooooooooo

 

[cntr]

wait, whaaat

 

[Zonic]

Looks like BBoy got BBanned. Though no idea why.

Yeah, looking through the post history I don't see much. Hopefully ban is over by toonami.

 

[grandjedi6]

Aku did it

 

[YoodiHoshi]

Yep, SAC's soundtrack was composed by Yoko Kanno

Yeah, I almost don't want to go into those threads sometimes...

I'm personally interested in both games and I think the discussion ends up becoming like distorted and bickering of which game will be better, blah blah blah, post this thing to make the game look in the worst light, blah blah blah.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

BBoy got sent to the future? :0

 

[RampagingSoul]

Yep, Aku sent him to the future...

He might be back in the past/present eventually...

Edit: It's kinda cool seeing all Aku headers for [adult swim]'s Facebook and Twitter along with a recent post on Facebook of some intern's art of Samurai Jack. I'm assuming intern because it's accompanied by #internartwednesday. Pretty cool art.

Here's the link to the art if anyone wants to see that hasn't already seen it.

People are probably checking out of JoJo BECAUSE of Part 1 tbh. If it started as weird and exciting as Part 2, I think it might have done a tad better.

I honestly think there are people that aren't crazy enough to be into Jojo regardless of what part they started with. Jojo is some bat shit shit and it only gets crazier after part 1. Seeing the Part 4 reactions really proved that. That and people liking Part 3 more than Part 4

RIP IN PIECES BBOY. NEVER FORGET

So I turned on my old fat base PS3 today. Took it out of the closet to play some PS2 games.

Boy, that system just constantly sounds like a plane is taking off. I'm guessing that's because it's old?

Oh damn, the launch PS3? That might explain it. Though it's kind of amazing to look back & realize the small storage size that came with it.

I somehow only discovered sometime last year that my PS3 can play PS1 games. How I went YEARS without knowing that just baffled me. I guess I figured if it couldn't play PS2, it couldn't play PS1 as well. Guess that'll be nice for not having to deal with hooking my PS2 up, though I felt so stupid for not knowing such a thing when I tend to try & be up to date with gaming.

One of these days, I need to figure out the best way to play older systems on a HDTV that won't cost me hundred of dollars for those upscalers. It's partly why I haven't gotten a Saturn yet, because I'm expecting it to look washed out on my 43" HDTV like when I hooked my GCN up.

BBoy...nooooo!

Yep.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

when I had a fat PS3 it seemed like certain games just...didn't run very well?

 

[Man God]

Phat PS3's sounded bad at launch, can't imagine how they sound now.

They're also incredibly prone to overheating and cooking the system.

 

[Man God]

For Seda on completion of Gundam Zeta.

 

[YoodiHoshi]

Holy crow..."Seda" and "Zeta" sound exactly the same when whispered

Spoiler

if I'm pronouncing Seda right

Even Seda doesn't know, hence his tag of "The Worst Pokemon"

There is going to be a year of the CA arc in HxH alone hah

 

[Grexeno]

I don't think Samurai Jack has a confirmed episode count

 

[Moaradin]

There is going to be a year of the CA arc in HxH alone hah

And what an amazing year that's gonna be

 

[Schadenfreude]

No, no, no, no. It's like Sedan but without the n.

 

[Crimson_Echidna]

That's going to be pretty rough to watch weekly. I feel like more than any arc, the Chimera Ant arc works best in a binge session.

 

[BassForever]

They confirmed 10 episodes last year

 

[HStallion]

Speaking of Samurai Jack the marathon has gotten up to the learning to jump good episode. A few of my favorite episodes are coming up like the one with Demongo and the ep with the Ultra Bots

 

[Hellwarden]

Remember when Samurai Jack fell into a Western?

I think it happened more than once actually.

Aku ordering a pizza is even better for absurd moments in the show

 

[Mizerman]

Or the time where Jack pretended to be a mod enforcer just to get close to Aku.

 

[BassForever]

My only concern with Jack s5 is that it'll go too far down the dark path.

I'm hoping he goes Guts on some poor monster

Why isn't it March 3rd already?

I was showing my friend the Switch super bowl commercial yesterday.

His one take away reaction was "Link can JUMP!??!" on account of the fact he's been mainly going on media blackout for BotW since he doesn't have a Wii U & is waiting on a Switch.

Still need to decide if I want to get a pro controller or just stick with a charging joycon grip controller.

You can probably marathon it in 2020.

I'm probably getting a Pro Controller eventually. Seeing how the JoyCons feel in the grip will be when I decide to get the Pro Controller sooner or later.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

On a different note, my girl Lyn topped the Fire Emblem Heroes poll and demonstrates the FE fandom doesn't have completely garbage tastes.

In related news, vote spitting has allowed Nowi to reach the top 10. Tiki, Anna, Severa, Nephenee, and Mia were robbed.

 

[Zonic]

I'll probably do the same thing. I've heard the grip is fine, but not something you'd want to use for hours like with Zelda, but I'll try it myself.

Thankfully, I should only pay around $50 out of pocket for the Switch, but then there's also $100 for the Master Edition of Zelda, plus deciding if I want a 128GB or 200GB storage (I didn't even use the full 64GB flash drive for my Wii U, so 128 should be fine, but 200 would future proof myself).

 

[bigkrev]

I'm probably getting a Pro Controller eventually. Seeing how the JoyCons feel in the grip will be when I decide to get the Pro Controller sooner or later.

I'm not sure if i'm even going to set up the dock for the switch, unless it's significantly faster than charging with just a standard cable. I'm really hoping that the Joycons are good because they are going to be the only control option I have using it as a portable

 

[Moaradin]

I'll probably wait a bit. Picking up a console + Zelda and a 70 dollar controller is just too much for me at once.

I'm getting the Switch & Zelda on Day 1, but I'm gonna give the Joy-Cons by themselves & in the grip a fair shake before I drop $70 on the Pro Controller.

 

[Regiruler]

Anyone buying one on launch is a fool.

And in a few cases, the enemy.
