I know all VR users probably know this already, but I just have to say that Superhot VR is amazing. If you don't own it, you're missing out.

So yeah, playing Superhot VR is so incredibly satisfying. You feel like a super human when you finish a level. And you SWEAT while u play it

And, of course, BTAS led to Mask of the Phantasm aka the best Batman movie ever.

 Tue Sep 05 19:12:56 +0000 2017

What I love about the show is that it often managed to highlight the duality of Batman/Bruce, while other adaptations didn't. https://x.com/io9/status/905114797636759552

(Probably the aspect of Nolan's films that I hate the most. Bruce Wayne barely exists in his versions.)

Shirley Walker's Batman theme is the best. That is all.

Idk, all this thinking about Twin Peaks 2017 makes me want to revisit Inland Empire, which I both hated and loved on my first viewing.

 Mon Sep 11 18:16:56 +0000 2017

Inland Empire has some amazing moments, some absolutely horrifying shit, and also some of the most boring stuff I've had to sit though

 Mon Sep 11 18:18:51 +0000 2017

And, of course, it also looks like total garbage, which is a big strike against it no matter what.

 Mon Sep 11 18:19:29 +0000 2017

I've seen it twice. First when I bought it (when Lynch was selling direct), and then a month later to confirm that I actually didn't like it

 Mon Sep 11 18:23:04 +0000 2017

I think Lynch's work began taking a different angle after Mulholland, heavily focusing on "fuck you, I'm David Lynch". Inland has too much.

The moment I probably hate the most is when the goddamn Rabbits show up. Fucking hell, man.

I've enjoyed Guardians 2, but it was *quite* inferior to the first film.

 Thu Sep 21 02:23:25 +0000 2017

I really enjoyed Logan. It was full of surprises, and broke the template. That's more than what I usually get when watching an action flick.

 Thu Sep 21 02:25:10 +0000 2017

Same with Deadpool, which I though was very funny, and good. Simply because someone tried to do something very different.

Like, oh shit, The Smurfs and Kung Fu Panda 3 made hundreds of millions of $, but Kubo didn't. There must not have been enough toys. What?!

 Thu Sep 21 03:57:28 +0000 2017

Goodness

 Thu Sep 21 04:03:32 +0000 2017

They've always lost money. They also have Phil Knight money behind them, and the studio in a way is Travis Knight's toy. I doubt they care.

This won't run DOS all that great. DosBox really chokes on processors like these

 Thu Sep 21 21:46:58 +0000 2017

People keep asking me about this thing, since it's gonna support DOS, apparently. Here it is: I don't care. This is dumb.

 Thu Sep 21 21:49:30 +0000 2017

I could at least understand a Retron in a way that there's no ready way to plug in retro controllers and cartridges into your PC, but...

 Thu Sep 21 21:50:27 +0000 2017

... last I checked each self-respecting PC still had a DVD drive, which is really all you need. No one will be getting this thing for DOS.

 Thu Sep 21 21:51:31 +0000 2017

Also DosBox is awesome, but it's not exactly the most optimized piece of software. It doesn't care how many processor cores you have.

 Thu Sep 21 21:52:43 +0000 2017

Meaning on something like this, you'd be *lucky* if you could run DOOM at full speed, but most likely you won't be able to.

 Thu Sep 21 21:53:42 +0000 2017

Yep. Here's a bit from their campaign. Good luck finding all these pre-486 CD-ROM games

 Thu Sep 21 21:56:19 +0000 2017

I'm talking about emulation here, obviously.

 Thu Sep 21 21:58:36 +0000 2017

If there's a computer in the household that has a DVD drive, this is redundant

 Thu Sep 21 22:00:09 +0000 2017

What? This is an emulator box. Run emulators in your PC, and you get the same thing. Play all your PSOne & Dreamcast games all you want

 Thu Sep 21 22:03:16 +0000 2017

Retron fucking blows. I went through two of them. And Retron's appeal is that I CAN'T plug cartridges into a PC. Not the case with discs.

 Thu Sep 21 22:06:20 +0000 2017

Btw, all Retron's emulators ARE "shitty pc emulators", only like five versions behind & used without permission. Idk what u're talking about

 Thu Sep 21 22:07:30 +0000 2017

Ok. But... You know... See all my previous tweets.

Attach a Rapberry PI instead. Cheaper too.

Also keep in mind that okay, u're not willing to plug in an HDMI cable, fine, but if it's Commander Keen you want, you'll need to burn a CD

Nobody did yet, so I doubt they will either. Hence the 386 note. That's about how well DosBox usually performs on mobile.
