  1. Foxy Land for the Genesis now available for pre-order! You may have seen this game on Indiegogo though they didn't reach their funding goal. For those following PSCD Games, they are also working on a Genesis demake of Resident Evil; you can see some of their work on Twitter.

    Some weird shit happening with IPA here too. WeldWerks put lactose and fruit purée in some hazy IPAs. Milkshake IPA. They are mostly, really good.😂

    Sounds like the next generation of Four Loko, but who am I to judge, I’m drinking Cream Soda Dr. Pepper as we speak!

  3. Interesting, I agree that those kinds of beers are where I’ll find more fun. I’m not an ipa person so it can be tough to find multiple options that interest me in most places when I go out. But I will jump at any bourbon barrel beer I find.

  4. Found a use for my accidental double post: I've included a link at the top of the OP that lists what is on each volume of Action 53. Get excited for Volume 4!

  5. This year I gave up being angry for Lent.

    Lately I've found myself getting really really pissed off when someone/something annoys me such as when I'm getting lunch and I can't get somewhere because the food court near my office is full of tourists walking 3 abreast, slowly, staring at their phones, or I'm crossing the street and a car nearly runs me down to beat the light, my girlfriend tells me about everyone who harassed her today, etc. I'm not great with my emotions and I tend to bottle them up, which means I seem really happy-go-lucky to most people I know, while I'm raging on the inside.

    I hate that I do this; I know that so much is stuff outside my control as well as me failing to consider the perspective of others. So when I feel myself getting angry over something trivial, I force myself to stop and think "do I do this sometimes?" or "is it possible there is a good reason that happened?" It's been hard so far, but I've found myself feeling generally happier about life day-to-day.

    @Scrobins are you interested in playing? I think you should 😆

    Also, if I'm not mistaken, if Splain, Mega Tank, and Scrobins all play we should be at 17? Whether they choose to play or not at least one or two more players would be ideal. 

    C'mon folks, it'll be a grand old time!

    Count me in 🙂

  7. Welcome @TurtleRescueNES! Glad to have you here. I managed to get a copy of your game through Zi in Syracuse and I’ve enjoyed playing it. You raise a good point I’ve been putting off: whether and how to catalog variants.

    My thinking so far has been to note variants where there is something different in the game itself but not include variants that are the same game with different cartridge designs. For example with regard to Commie Killer, I included the Wittenhagen variant because the head and vocal sound effect for beating a level is different but I don’t include variants such as the KHan variant because it appears to be the same game as the original but with a little picture of Kevin in the corner of the label.

    Is the gameplay different across the 3 versions of Turtle Rescue you listed? If so I’ll definitely make that update to my list.

    And as always was I’d love to hear how others feel about treating variants on this thread.

    This happened to me multiple times while in university, on a night out people would come up to me and start chatting with me, swearing that I was in XYZ class with them a year or two back. Besides not having a clue who they were, the problem always was that I hadn't taken any courses with the professors they claimed to share in common with me. 

    You should have used them to get the university to give you another degree in whatever program that was! “Im telling you, Dean, I wrote a dissertation on that subject, just ask those people that saw me in class!”
