re: Blazing Saddles was released 50 years ago today

[quote]No one is pissed, nor is anyone not enjoying the movie because of that reality. They are just lamenting where society is now relative to a time where you could make a truly funny movie without fear reprisal for "feigned outrage". People were just looking for something to make the laugh. Now, ...

Also for the record, I think Rocky III is way more of a tear-jerker than IV.
RIP Mickey....

re: Call to Arms - Gates of Hell: Ostfront
Posted by DesertFox on 3/24/24 at 11:41 am
It's similar... but no base management and you control individual soldiers. It's cool because you can select a soldier and go into Direct Control mode and look down your gunsights/scope/etc to shoot, then zoom back out to control the bigger picture.
Lots of micromanagement, but it's an amazing ...

Call to Arms - Gates of Hell: Ostfront
Posted by DesertFox on 3/23/24 at 12:01 pm
Yep, it's a long title but has anyone played this much? I picked it up on the Steam sale last week and it is completely badass. The controls are fiddly at first, but once you start learning the hotkeys and how unit selection works and how to go in/out of Direct Control mode, it's like having the u...

I actually thought that too until I looked it up. I know they did name Kirby after the lawyer who represented Nintendo in the Donkey Kong lawsuit and I figured this had to be a similar situation... ...

LOL that is awesome and apparently just a coincidence, although this guy was destined to work for Nintendo.

Curious how the game plays if you go the controller route.[/quote]
I've played it on both PC and PS5 so have a little experience with both. Although I almost always prefer mouse & keyboard for these types of games, once you get used ...

I need to check out War Thunder... heard a lot about it but still never tried it.
DCS is a good call too, but be prepared... you would probably be qualified to fly actual fighter jets IRL if you master that one....

I have an Oculus (Meta) Quest 2 headset and can confirm that it is pretty awesome for flight sims. There are a couple of "basic" native flight sims you can run directly on the headset, but for the full experience I would strongly recommend a PC sim. The Quest can be hooked into the PC and games th...
