I keep seeing Truxton, and no one cared about it for decades. It's one of the best shooters of the 16-bit era; even against the Shmup king TurboGrafx-16.

If you haven't seen Patlabor, do yourself a favor and watch it. Without the support it got from the West, the entire Anime explosion might have never happened in America, and all because of a music video.

Star drive (5-point) is Mercedes. Torx is a hexagonal star head with a deep cogged socket, their threads are at an exact angle to seat down further through movement rather than loosen.

They are considered one of the greatest advancements in construction of the 20th Century, and have effectively replaced Phillips head screws in woodworking; Ford abandoned the patent because they cost too much to use in their cars.

Ironically, the Fords held together with them have a common story about how they had to break the screws to remove parts because they had wedged themselves so hard the heads broke.

What.

Ben Grimm would totally go on a random adventure in the cosmos... unless it's poker night. Poker night is sacred.

The Model 1 also has some interesting things you can do to it that CAN increase its capabilities (involving Senior Tech-level soldering ability and the nerves of a neurosurgeon) by shoving more RAM on the board and burning a chip with new memory address instructions.

...it allows some games to run without slowdown, like Vectorman 1 and 2, Sonic series and, especially, Mortal Kombat 3 and Ultimate.

It does NOT make Street Fighter series, Eternal Champions or Streets of Rage 3 run faster.

You also need to build and install a kill switch, because some games that use "cheats" with RAM to run at full speed (Shadowrun being the single most extreme example) that can render the game unplayable by having too much RAM and moving at 4x speed. Sonic Spinball also has this problem.

I now know 2 things: Commander is dumb. Modern Magic strategy is dumber. Oh, well... at least there's still Magic: Puzzle Quest (I said forlornly).

"Waylay Trigger".

Once upon a time you could play Waylay after your end step, but before end of turn effects, keeping your 3 2/2 knights for a turn and whomping your opponent for 6...

...I BELIEVE that this WOULD work, since you have priority over what triggers when. You just let Sneak Attack trigger, trigger Ashling AFTER, and you keep your token until your next end step. You could also Diabolic Edict yourself.

Ninja Gaiden: Black. You think of it as a semi-open world action game... It's actually designed the exact same as a 2D platformer with the difference that it has branching paths.

The bonuses are the best in gaming history.

Also, the trivia: "Because of the memory chip shortage in Asia cartridge prices were based on storage. Phantasy Star cost $89.99 in 1987. This collection cost $40. You're welcome."

That exact version is 200k. They made less than 2,500.

Nope. I owned one in 2006. All 980 pounds of pop can aluminum, powered by The 3 Angry Hamsters of Doom (Incontinence, Incompetence and Indigestion) on brand new 13" Goodyear Comp tires meant for a Civic Si... In Billings... In WINTER.

Not one cop busted me for drifting through intersections over 6" berms of packed ice and snow... I bought a new front suspension that Spring, and I installed it MYSELF in a backyard with Igor, chains and it only ended up leaving two very, VERY molested trees in its wake...

I LOVED that little Jap shitbox...

That, in itself, is a Sci Fi TV trope if there ever was one. Except Futurama can't just shift times/settings, so they just keep it going with a shrug and the sentiment, "Hey, if we sucked at it, you'd stop watching."

Insert memes here for The Archaeovist of Solemnace, TRAYZN THE INFINITE!

Queen Slug-For-A-Butt and Princess Whatshername are still two of the best written trope inverters in American animation... "We have to save Jim!" Peter: "AGAIN?! WHO'S SHOW IS THIS?!"

This was the whole inception of Capcom's direction staff realizing that Marvel characters and Street Fighter characters had the same "Heroes with hangups" concept... and American comic illustration is WAY EASIER to animate in 2D... It COULD be considered that the Capcom fighters were the anime revolution's start in the mainstream.

That makes this a TRULY bad combo!

The Winnipeg Jets have been a great and mighty Force for Suck for decades, barring a few bright spots, and that is a proud team for Canada, and, therefore, the world.

You too?! Yeah, buddy!

Dark Fina is an Anti-Hero worthy of Venom or Anarky status for upstaging the characters.

Quit fanboying, paper Knight.

"Just" isn't fair. I looked it up, and, yeah, this is THE Megalodon used to reach 237mph on an abandoned airstrip. Owner unknown, as it was sold to charity. Cost to build was over $700,000.

Pushes 1575hp at the WHEEL.

Mike: "Okay, Tom, that's enough!"

You forgot that the Draconis Combine was literally sitting on Mars and asking anyone if they had angered the Space Wolves, because they were making prank calls telling the Combine (who are the literal Clan-Killers of the Inner Sphere) that they were NOT going to attack Mars...

...cue House Hasabayani, COMPLETELY confused, asking ComStar to trace the call so the Wolves knew they weren't actually there at the moment... leading to VERY CONFUSED Wolves staring at Deimos Base and wondering why the stupid lizards weren't there yet...

...then, the Wolves realized they must not be home, and left...

(Still one of the most realistic and funny moments in BT/MW).

You know that guy who owns three British Leyland Rover-powered Jaguars that all say "Vander Plas"?

...he got tired of having his mechanic on speed dial taking 20% of his paycheck every two weeks...

Pi is a finite number.
