Smartphones own, I love them. While I'm at it - computers also own and consoles too. Cars and houses are pretty cool as well, I have no problem with them. Printers are loving trash though, drat I hate printers and if I didn't want to print something from time to time I wouldn't even own one.

What about 3D printers?

2003 to I want to say 2008, basically my college years, was kind of a weird/dark time for me and video games. I can remember a few notable titles but I otherwise largely skipped games that were not flagship Nintendo titles or things on the DS. The result of my actions resulted in an enormous PS2 backlog that took me nearly 10 years to eventually complete.

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


Nice, Agents of Mayhem is hovering around 69 metascore. That's a kiss of death for a AAA release.

Interestingly, the fact Agents of Mayhem technically isn't a Saints Row game didn't stop Volition from cramming it with references to the immature open-world series.

Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.
SCENE - A Volition board room.

[Man 1] Okay, circling back around to "entering car animations" we have a lot of holes to fill, so I want to hear some ideas.

[Man 2] Let's have someone flip the bird to the camera.

[Man 1] Nice, edgy, I like it.

I don't specifically remember 2003 but I think Castlevania and Megaman weren't dead yet so I was probably playing one of those.

It's hard to remember it's been so long.

fake edit: yeah no, 2003 was rad after looking at a list
