7:05 PMJared Kniselygrease is just to help the bolts not strip
7:06 PMJared Kniselyu also might be able to apply after u tighten them as well
7:07 PMJared Kniselyits not black right?
7:08 PMZigonits always a better bet just to get the whole tool box that way you got it laying around. good clal
7:08 PMZigoncall even*
7:09 PMZigonyou could always get wd40 and grease up all the hinges in the house you kno
7:11 PMJared Kniselyi talking about the tool box/gamecube joke
7:11 PMZigonits the same stuff man you made a good call
7:16 PMZigonI think the game is more of a concept than anything, promotion of being responsible with resources while having fun doing it
7:17 PMZigonthe eco game
7:18 PMZigonyou want games to be challenging?!?!?! what a crazy idea!!
7:19 PMZigonunpacking is just a story game to see who the person is and how they progress in life. Another concept type game.
7:23 PMZigonits an interesting concept for sure. I kind of enjoy busywork games like the powerwashing game or viscera cleanup ect
7:25 PMSheekagoHey all
7:25 PMZigonHi Sheekago!
7:26 PMSheekagoI think I’d just pour gasoline and toss a match to clean up the mess
7:27 PMSheekagoThat’s hilarious
7:29 PMmatthew wilsonyeah becouse the post service would ever allow that lol
7:29 PMaddictedtochaosHi all
7:32 PMaddictedtochaosXbox wasn’t bad but it was exactly what I expected from Xbox. Halo, Forza and a bunch of shooters.
7:32 PMmatthew wilsonalso the wp acadently leaked the trailer 30 minutes before lol
7:33 PMaddictedtochaosPretty sure BOTW 2 is more anticipated at the moment.
7:33 PMJared Knisely10 years in the making
7:34 PMZigonlady gaga type fashion
7:34 PMJared Kniselyits like cyberpunk
7:34 PMJared Kniselyin its delayness
7:34 PMaddictedtochaosEiyuden Chronicle looks great, successor to Suikoden.
7:35 PMZigondevolver digital did a similar thing with micro transactions, i found it kind of funny
7:36 PMZigonas much as i hate devolver digitals politics they get a few things right every now and again haha
7:37 PMmatthew wilsonwashington post
7:37 PMmatthew wilsontheir video team acadently broke embargo
7:38 PMJared Kniselydid u count the old bethesda coming
7:38 PMJared Kniselygames
7:39 PMaddictedtochaosIn the 30 Microsoft showed
7:39 PMZigonlol what
7:39 PMmatthew wilsonkinda low bar to look better than avangers
7:40 PMJared Kniselycoming to gamepass in the 30
7:45 PMJared Kniselyi thought it was more like nier
7:45 PMJared Kniselyif im thinking of the right game
7:46 PMJared Kniselycreepy game
7:50 PMaddictedtochaosMonster Hunter Stories looks like a well made game but every time they said Monstie it angered me.
7:55 PMSheekagoI just played and beat Zero Mission
7:55 PMJared Kniselydo u think the new zelda will come with new hardware
7:56 PMaddictedtochaosI have to wonder how many Wii U owners bought Zero Mission and Fusion on the eShop after the direct.
7:58 PMSheekagoaddictedtachos I had to buy them ON Wii U. I have the GBA Cartridges but they don’t work anymore.
7:59 PMSheekagoI thought Other M’s game play was fun. It didn’t feel like a traditional Metroid game, but it was fun.
8:01 PMCafeFox@Sheekago your carts dont work anymore?
8:01 PMSheekago@cafefox my DS didn’t register the carts, no
8:03 PMJared Kniselyeither or
8:03 PMJared Kniselynew gen or new switch
8:03 PMCafeFoxwhat nes games you got?
8:05 PMSheekagoNew Switch, now with better kickstand and 64gb internal storage!
8:06 PMJames StriderI just want my animal crossing town to not lag like hell on an upgraded switch
8:06 PMCafeFox@still with drift
8:07 PMSheekago@cafefox there is no drift… according to Nintendo
8:07 PMJared Kniselyits been 5 years so new stuff is a possibility in a year and half
8:08 PMJames StriderIf you put enough furniture outside it stutters a lot, if you see people with packed islands its ridiculous lol
8:08 PMaddictedtochaosPossibility that all the talk of the “Switch Pro” is actually the next gen console.
8:09 PMaddictedtochaosNintendo said they wanted the Switch to have a 7 year life span and we are in the 5th year.
8:11 PMSheekago@addictedtochaos that might have been their original plan, but they’re making money hand over fist. Once sales slow down, then they might think about new console
8:13 PMJared Kniselyon the graphics side/ I saw the pc parts are starting drop in price
8:13 PMaddictedtochaosHopefully Fatal Frame will get a physical release this time.
8:14 PMSheekagoZombiU was best in WiiU. It brought an aspect of fear trying to grab stuff in your bag because you couldn’t see zombies that might attack you.
8:16 PMJared Kniselyskyrim]
8:17 PMSheekagodesert oases
8:17 PMSheekagounderground caves
8:17 PMReverend Werewolfno plans for the 35th anniversary for zelda,except for a game and watch system,that sucks.
8:18 PMSheekagoWolf that was a slap in the face to Zelda and its fans
8:22 PMaddictedtochaosThe term they used for Fatal Frame on Wii U was “free to start”.
8:23 PMLee ShowronHey
8:23 PMCafeFoxso which exclusives are left on Wii U… Star Fox…
8:24 PMaddictedtochaosXenoblade X
8:24 PMSily Chicken3421you should stream lego games
8:24 PMaddictedtochaosTwilight Probably and Wind Waker HD
8:25 PMaddictedtochaosPrincess (damn autocorrect)
8:25 PMTrilinkE3 really showed it’s irrelevance this year. Sad but I think with the internet, companies can now release thing according to their schedule and not at someone else’s.
8:25 PMReverend Werewolfi would of liked to see windwaker and twilight princess come to switch.
8:26 PMTrilinkI think Microsoft “won” this year. As they showed a good variety of games. Nintendo comes second find for me
8:27 PMTrilinktoo many ports and remakes shown for my liking
8:28 PMCafeFox@Trilink agreed
8:28 PMaddictedtochaosLike Lego City Undercover
8:28 PMReverend Werewolflego my eggo
8:29 PMZigonlego rock raiders!!!!!!!!
8:29 PMZigoni want another lego rock raiders.
8:29 PMSily Chicken3421lego city undercover on the ds was elite
8:30 PMJoey Jojo Jr. Shabadoothis e3 could’ve been an email
8:30 PMTrilinkOh and the remakes / collections they did show, are full price. thanks Nintendo 👍
8:31 PMSily Chicken3421no i never did
8:31 PMCafeFoxI was working during a lot of these Live Events
8:33 PMJared Kniselyit was recycled garage
8:33 PMJared Kniselyin those
8:33 PMTrilinkI think if they had revealed Splatoon 3 in this direct and their next DK or Mario game alongside a trailer for Bayonetta 3 then they would have stolen the show
8:36 PMZigonStalker 2, FAR: Changing tides, The gecko gods, Despots game.
8:36 PMZigonThose are my most looked forward to games
8:36 PMSheekagoI think a new F-Zero announcement would have blown me away
8:37 PMSily Chicken3421what did you think of the lego movie videogame
8:38 PMTrilink@Sheekago did you not see the Smash/Tekken trailer? Kazuya killed Capt Falcon alongside Pit, 2 game series seemingly on hiatus haha
8:39 PMZigonhaha
8:39 PMZigonyou wrote the ign review??
8:39 PMZigonnice
8:44 PMZigon250?!
8:45 PMaddictedtochaosCan’t find an Xbox One S or a PS4 right now.
8:46 PMTrilinkthere’s no buttons on the Amico? None that I can see, looks interesting but $250 is insane
8:46 PMSily Chicken3421have you played little nighmares
8:47 PMSheekagoTo be fair, Bandai Namco is a small indie company that just started…
8:47 PMZigon@Sheekago HAHAHA
8:49 PMaddictedtochaosThe Paddles controller
8:49 PMSheekagoOh I remember the Atari paddles
8:49 PMTrilinkAt least it wasn’t like Capcom’s presentation, who’s presenter’s family must have been held hostage or something, given her pained expressions and contrived enthusiasm
8:50 PMZigonI expect you to die is pretty good
8:51 PMZigonwell, how do you feel about that?
8:52 PMZigonafter so many executions you figure you’d feel like “man i could use a vacation…” *KACHINK*
8:55 PMZigonnot everyone can be reggie
8:55 PMZigonbut we need more reggie speakers
8:55 PMTrilinkNot everyone has a Todd Howard. Always impressed by his presentation style instead of the games he shows for Bethesda haha
8:57 PMZigonYep Todd Howard, Reggie Fils, real good speakers.
8:59 PMZigongood talk
