Uncommon Opinions

The Batman Arkham series isnt that spectacular. Its a nice game but people wet their pants praising that series; above average at best.

I'm convinced you're a real life troll lol. Like not doing it on purpose, that's just who you are.

I disagree about people liking those games b/c it's "Batman". Superhero games in general have sucked until this gen of games. Those were the first Batman games that actually captures the character of Batman, told the story, and were fun. Has their been a playable Superman game even?

Speaking of Superman, I think that whole idea and character absolutely suck! No one can tell who this damn guy is b/c of a curl and glasses? Seriously? You can eat bullets, faster than a locomotive, but can't handle a rock being thrown at you? What the hell is the fun of watching a superhero if he can do everything (except withstand a rock pelting)?

Watched the first episode of Walking Dead and didn't find it good enough to watch another. I like Mad Men which is weird to me. I have no idea what genre it's classified in. The only black people I've seen in it have servant type jobs. I also don't feel like there's an actual plot. I love history, so like others have said, that part appeals to me.

I loved Batman: Vengeance on PS2. I also played the hell out of Batman:TAS on Gameboy. Batman Returns wasn't as favored on SEGA, but I was able to play Return of the Joker a couple times and that game was cool from what I remember.

Lol be that as it may, I still thought the game was good, better than alot of others. But it wasn't groundbreaking. I only played Batman Arkham City but there wasnt anything spectacular about the gameplay, not the combat, not the "detective work". The story was good enough, and the setting/world design was great but I felt underwhelmed by the end of it. I admittingly am not a big Batman fan so maybe if I were I would have called this the GOAT like I was hearing back in 2011. It also felt kinda short to me. Idk.

I think it is silly that non european, non south american soccer teams use titles like United, FC, Real, Dynamo, Lokomitiv and City in their names.

You aren't european, your leagues are inferior, you dont fool anyone into thinking your ten year old team has a long and storied history because you decided to call yourself Houston Dynamo (MLS) Sydney FC (Australian A League) or Jeju United (Korean K League) for example. Use your own bloody imagination and culture when creating your leagues!

Daft marketing influences! Whilst on that the newest team in the Australian Rules Football League is Greater Western Sydney. GWS for short. Their nick name is the Giants. So dumb because it is so un Australian. It is a US sports nick name and fits well within US sports. It doesn't belong in a uniquely Australian competition.

Global marketing influences are turning us all into the same processed culture.

Didn't the South Americans copy those ideas from the Europeans too? I mean, there is a club called Liverpool FC in Uruguay.

The Sth Americans are seriously passionate about football and have a legitimate history with the game, I can spare them some theft.

But you raise a good point.

Buying DVD/Blu Ray movies and having a huge collection is a big waste of money.

Not if you care about audio/video quality and/or don't want to be at the mercy of Netflix/Hulu/Amazon's schedule.

I'm agreeing with you now. I've stopped buying Blu Rays for most movies now because I realize I just don't go back and watch them much.

I probably just need to go out and sell all my old DVD's to get rid of them.

That's my thinking. Not quality of movie, but I know people that own tons of movies and they have watched them maybe twice at the most. Seems pointless.

I don't even own a blu-ray movie. I just don't go back and watch them much.

Re: Uncommon Opinions

I've watched most of mine 2-3 times with probably a quarter of them more than 5 times and about a tenth or fifth over 10 times.

[Beantown]

Yeah, I've seen all but a few of my movies (usually blind buys that I don't end up liking as much as I should) at least three times.

Re: Uncommon Opinions

Im on team giant collection of movies is pointless. Same with games. When Ive experienced it enough I get rid of it. But Im not a movie buff like that so hey.

[Fresh Tendrils]

Re: Uncommon Opinions

I feel like its pointless to buy games if you're just going to get rid of them. I've started keeping them just because I like playing through parts of them again and the trade-in usually isn't enticing enough for me to give it up. Plus, I rarely buy games at launch anymore.

Re: Uncommon Opinions

I LOVE films, so I have a sizeable collection of DVD/BluRay. I only buy movies that are 'worthy' so I don't have anything I wouldn't watch multiple times.
