It's only a slap if Sony puts it on sale recently then gives it for free soon after. La Mulana absolutely counts as a slap. Teslagrad would even probably qualify since it was on sale barely a month ago.

I figured Sony would wait at least a month after a game went on sale before adding it to a Plus lineup. So much for that.

I'm hoping that before it starts getting cold I can fit in at least 1 more amusement park run (probably king's island this time), a kayak/hiking trip, and another beach/lake trip. Summer went by quick this year.

Nice! I love kayaking. I used to fish more than I gamed as a child but fell out of it for a while. Getting back into it now, fishing from a kayak is awesome.

And yeah it flew. I'm already counting down until April.

If you had a choice for the poll of "Too big of a pussy to have ever ridden one" I would have had to check that one.  I can barely stomach riding a log flume.  I just do not like that falling feeling at all.

My oldest is just like me.  My youngest rode the 20 story free fall thing at Disney multiple times in a row with my wife and her family.  It seems that one of the other roller coasters that went backwards must have freaked him out though.  Now he won't ride that stuff anymore. 

 
Apparently someone managed to plat Until Dawn within a day without a guide. That's actually encouraging since I should hopefully be able to trade it in before its TIV tanks.

Co-op makes the game too easy. Pancakes and I did some story mission levels together without a single enemy through without any real effort.

The endless survivals, now those are a different story. fuck those.

Replaying levels with all/most upgrades does the same thing. People who don't play a lot of tower defense would benefit from it though. Survival is a pain in the ass. I played he-man with cakes, and we got to 25.

I've begrudgingly ridden a few (and have no problem with log flumes or mild rides) but I would never voluntarily hop on a roller coaster. I don't like that feeling either.

Waiting in line for 30+ minutes is also quite the deterrent.

Too bad Nintendo didn't put Platinum Games' logo on the front, though. It's Bayonetta 2 all over again.

Did anybody watch that Walking Dead spinoff last night? The first season is only 6 episodes, so I'll probably just wait til it's over and binge it.

It was ok, kind of slow but pretty much what I expected. Felt more like a regular TV drama. I'll keep watching see how it goes.

I used to be scared of coasters and fall rides as a kid until I finally tried them. Changed my outlook real fast. I haven't been in a while though.

This exactly for me. Went on the feet dangling one at Six Flags and the straight down drop thing in high school. Enjoyed them. Wondering if it's time to get my kid on the big one at Mall of America. I think that's the last real one I've ridden.

I hate the waiting, skipped a couple rides at Cedar Point because the like was over an hour long.

We got to go in when the park is only open to special groups though, so to start all the lines for the popular rides were 30ish minutes tops. Then later in the day we concentrated on the water rides and the shorter/older coasters. None of the teen groups seemed interested in the older ones (especially the wooden coasters) so getting through those lines were like 15 minutes tops, and teen free, so awesome.

 
Wow, can't imagine not liking roller coasters. So much fun. The best part is just when you think you've ridden the most bad ass ride there is they make a bigger, faster, crazier one the next year. It's tough now going on vacations with 2 small kids and not being able to ride the coasters.

 
I don't mind them, I'm more afraid that I'm going to lose my glasses or shit out of my pockets, than of the actual coaster.

But it's awesome once they start riding them! My oldest now rides everything. Still working on the younger one.

Every time I've been to Hershey Park the lines have been short. There's always been coasters with 5 minute waits. They have enough of them and the park is big enough. That plus the app and you're not waiting much for anything. The Comet, their oldest wooden coaster, actually tends to have the longest lines, probably because it's near the front of the park.

I've never lost anything out of my pockets, but most parks have bins you can stash stuff in if you're worried. For glasses I wear a sport eyeglass strap.

My guess is that guy at Cedar Point was trying to video the ride and dropped his phone, but who knows.

I was wondering that myself. If they were trying to show how the Arwing can transform, where's the end-result?
Click to expand...
That is the end result. Its supposed to be mid stride. As to why its in land mode whilst in space.. Nintendo.

Funny imagining some shitty pilot accidentally pushing the transform button while changing the radio station though.

I *love* roller coasters. Sadly we haven't made it to any parks this year and school started up today, but we are thinking of maybe a Saturday trip to Hershey Park before the season is over. My favorite park, though, is Knoebels. Such a classic. Problem is it's a multi-day trip. Too far away to day trip it.

Huh, My first coaster when I was younger was at Hershey Park...

Also guys, had the new spicy grillers at Taco Bell, holy shit they were good. I only had the Chipotle cause I am a wimp, still a little spicy. It was huge and for only a $1! Go get it!

I tried the ghost pepper one today and it is legit hot, but I didn't think it tasted that good. I'll probably try the Habanero before giving up, though.

I might be a pussy when it comes to Roller Coasters but not spicy food. The Ghost Pepper one has more heat than I anticipated with it being a mass market item. If that actually has any ghost pepper in it then it must be one in a 55 gallon drum of that stuff.

It is pretty good otherwise though. I wish they would let me order 3 and put the stuff inside of them all into wrap though. There is not enough stuff on the inside of any of those grillers I have had.

They are already up to $1.40 or so a piece here.

 
Speaking of Star Fox Zero, I really really really fuck ing hope they have a classic controller option. The gamepad way of playing sounded like jank from most of those who played it. 

 
You guys ever ridden one of these? (Spoilered for size)

These kinds of rides tend to make me nauseous, but if you can take them they are fun. This was better than I was expecting. I uttered a few choice words while riding it with my kid. LOL.

I saw those rides shut down too many times when I was young to ever want to get into them. They were not shut down for mechanical reasons. They were shut down to spray out the vomit from other riders.

My friend started calling them vomit rockets and that stuck.

But it looks like two stages of the transformation superimposed on top of each other, not a single Arwing-Chocobo.

It did make me pretty queasy. Doubt I'll ride it again for that reason, but it was fun once. UNLESS I get myself this:

https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/meds/a682509.html

Scopolamine Transdermal Patch

I once got a prescription for that and then rode lots of spinning rides. Super effective and without side effects unlike Dramamine.

Since you're fairly close, I'm assuming you've been to Holiday World.

I actually haven't made it to Holiday World yet. Wouldn't mind trying to get there though. Its more water park than anything though right? Those can be fun, but its usually harder for me to get a group together for those ones.

 
I voted OK on roller coasters.  But I don't go out of my way to ride them either.   Probably been 10 years or so since I have been on one.  Went with a friend to the theme parks (Universal I think).  It was supposed to be me and him on vacation but at the last min he invites his GF.  Anyway he was a pussy and wouldn't ride anything.  So he spent an afternoon holding stuff while we rode the rides.  Maybe he saved our lives.  Maybe one of us would have lost a cell phone or hat (I think I did lose my hat at one point) and would have jumped a fence and been struck and killed. 

Haven't been since and if I never go again that is fine with me.

I can ride roller coasters all damn day long.

And my daughter loves the rides too.  She is OH SO CLOSE to being big enough to ride the real roller coasters.  When that happens watch out.  We will be going all over the country riding the baddest ass rides.

They've got 4 or 5 roller coasters, along with a lot of other rides. The water park is pretty big, though.

I don't ride those kinds. Not a fan of the carnival style puke rockets. I'm fine 90% of the time with the big and fast roller coasters, but those carnival type ones mess me up in 2 seconds.

I did end up feeling kinda dizzy after riding the millennium force yesterday though. It was fun, but I was definitely loosing my footing a bit trying to exit the ride after lol.

I've ridden them sure, but prefer coasters over stuff like that. My older son had me go on the tilt a whirl 3 times in a row too...my stomach wasn't happy with that.

 
Yeah those crazy topsy turvy carnival rides are dangerous and not fun like a legit coaster.  I dont know why carnivals and those rides in particular are even allowed to operate anymore.  They have lots of injuries every year at those small places.
