anytime some moron makes a brain dead ‘french surrender’ joke, i’m reminded of the origin issue of The Frenchman from The Boys, specifically the scene near the end at the bar.
yeah, T-1000 is one of my favorite movie villains. Even with a reprogrammed T-800 on your side, it’s still a bleak situation. The only thing on earth that could kill it apparently was the extreme heat of molten steel at a factory, or perhaps a volcano…so your only real hope is to lead it to those kinds of areas…otherwise, he will eventually catch up and kill you. “They don’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear…and he absolutely WILL NOT STOP…EVER…until you are dead.”
*and just think about that threat for a second---- you would be on the run for the rest of your life unless you kill the T-1000. Also, you couldn’t trust anyone since he could assume the form of people or even ordinary objects. Without T-800’s help in being able to possibly identify T-1000 by seeing thru the morphed disguise…it’s hopeless.
— yeah, and this is why “infection” type zombies tend to be lame, imo. Realistically, they are the most dangerous, since they are shown to be as fast or even faster than normal humans in relatively good physical condition… but the concept itself isn’t quite as true to “horror” since it has a scientific explanation. When you see zombies walking around for no apparent reason other than some mystical/magical “voo-doo shenanigans” or “end of the world shit”…that’s more terrifying since there’s no logical explanation behind it. Basically, the most powerful kind of horror is based from the fear of the unknown. …like if you look up one day and see some surreal vision in the sky for a brief moment, like an alien face (Uatu from Marvel!) looking down at you, then it’s gone…later that night, you catch another glimpse of some yellow-skinned demon in your peripheral vision…right there in your house…look directly at it and there’s nothing there…or waking up one day to realize you are the last living thing on earth, and it’s a complete mystery as to what happened to everyone else (*bump that up a notch— as the last living thing on earth, just before you go to sleep in this empty, silent world… there’s a knock at the door!)… crazy/surreal shit going on with no rational explanation— that’s 10x more disturbing than “humans are infected with a super-virus and coming back to life as a result.”
nah homey. toxic was the beginning of euro-synth/god-mode britney. she’s been dropping heat ever since she linked up with timbaland’s protege, danjahandz. her new single is kinda meh, but it’s growing on me.
Marvel vs Capcom 2: I play for 10 years on 3 consoles + arcade. I get whomped on XBL. Regularly.
Marvel vs Capcom 3: Player matches so far…I’ve lost 2 matches. Brain-dead wins for the win! Once I stop feeling like I’m beating superior players (to myself) I’ll take it to Ranked.
It’s because the system is pairing you up with people the same rank as you.
As you get higher the level does increase, not drastically but it does improve. I’ve played a few high lord and they are good. Not amazing, but good. Beat a few, lost to a few.
That line scared the shit out of me when I was a kid. To know a machine with that level of invulnerability and the ability disguise itself as anything would literally hunt you down to the ends of the earth… damn.
lol yeah. I play a fuckton of people and just run train…then I suddenly meet some guy with an alt account that is 64-0, or some guy who has played nearly a thousand matches, and I openly weep
still, not gonna lie, after the beatings I recieved in XBL MvC2, and watching some videos online, I thought I would do WAAAAY worse. I truly think this game is great. And you better believe there is a TON more shit for us to learn still
I know my biggest flaw is command moves. What I mean is, my matches consist almost entirely of command moves. I need some bread and butter. Every normal I use is just a set-up for the next special.
SNK history. It took me forever to nail down all of those elaborate ass executions. Shoryukens are easier to pull off than hadoukens, for me.
I have about 2 hours of MvC3 online matches racked up, with 25 hours of offline mode on the side. I’ve essentially watched tons more footage of this game then I’ve actually played…
Blame is solely on Tactics Ogre though. My PSP is seeing way too much playtime now.
