The Emo Parker scene in Spiderman 3 is hilarious and brilliant. If it pissed you off as a Spiderman fanboy then it succeeded at what it was trying to do.
[QUOTE=thelurker1234;45875061] And it reveals that maybe having nude photos of yourself on a digital device is a bad idea[/QUOTE] And it revealed that even keeping nude photos of yourself on an external network you don't own as an even worse idea. Bad enough to keep them backed up as it is.
We have just as many good games, if not more, than we did in the 80's and 90's
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;45875910]I think its interesting someone got them from Apple's cloud storage, but celebs just look worse than porn acters.[/QUOTE] Well most porn is shot with quite a few techniques to make them look as good as possible, most are ugly tbh.
While all musical genres have potential to be good, metal is the best genre there is and will never die.

[QUOTE=Leo the Leo;45855003]The thing that pisses me off about canon is when people argue what's canon in a game with choices/branching paths. Everything is canon, don't have a superiority complex and act like the way you play is magically more canon than someone else's.[/QUOTE] But that isn't true. For example, Metro has two endings, but only one of those is canon. I haven't been on FP all that lot this week so sorry for replying to a 2 day old post, but still.
[QUOTE=Dub!;45876899]But that isn't true. For example, Metro has two endings, but only one of those is canon. I haven't been on FP all that lot this week so sorry for replying to a 2 day old post, but still.[/QUOTE] Of course there needs to be a canon ending if there's a direct sequel to it.
[QUOTE=Paramud;45876720]While all musical genres have potential to be good, metal is the best genre there is and will never die.[/QUOTE] Don't get ahead of yourself, all genres are gonna die eventually. And considering how a lot of metal nowadays (not all, but a good portion) is incoherent screaming, I don't think there's gonna be a long lifespan left for it.

And considering how a lot of metal nowadays (not all, but a good portion) is incoherent screaming, I don't think there's gonna be a long lifespan left for it.[/QUOTE] Certain types of music that are centuries old still have a significant following. I don't think any specific genre is going to die out soon.
[QUOTE=Novangel;45877335]Of course there needs to be a canon ending if there's a direct sequel to it.[/QUOTE] Those walking dead games though.
On the topic of metal: my unpopular opinion is that metal is really annoying and needs to go away already, especially death metal
[QUOTE=Chaplin;45877622]On the topic of metal: my unpopular opinion is that metal is really annoying and needs to go away already, especially death metal[/QUOTE] Get a load of this dweeb.
[QUOTE=Skyward;45877627]Get a load of this dweeb.[/QUOTE] this person doesnt like what i like better take it personally and insult him :^)
My unpopular opinion is that if you can't detect sarcasm on the internet you should have your net license revoked. "Ma'am, we've received word that you didn't think what your husband said on Facebook was sarcastic. I'm sorry, but we can't let you use the internet any more."
[QUOTE=Chaplin;45877641]this person doesnt like what i like better take it personally and insult him :^)[/QUOTE] I'm just saying you clearly don't understand how diverse metal is as a genre if you think you can actually condense it all into one definition. And saying ____ genre needs to go away because you don't like it is just totally stupid and selfish regardless.
Whenever someone asks me about metal I generally end up sending them this link [url]http://mapofmetal.com/#/home[/url]
[QUOTE=Skyward;45877697]I'm just saying you clearly don't understand how diverse metal is as a genre if you think you can actually condense it all into one definition.[/QUOTE] a fair enough point, but I didn't exactly take what you just said out of "get a load of this dweeb" As for metal, believe me I've tried. I'm close friends with some huge metalheads and honestly i can barely get past the entry level stuff like slayer, let alone the more obscure subgenres like thrash, prog, screamo and all that for me its not an absolute blind hate for the genre, but at its core I simply don't like the way the music sounds. I don't enjoy long ass guitar solos, the violent lyrics and rhythm, song made of nothing but power chords and a monotonous bass line, (edit) which is from what ive seen what dominates the genre. there are exceptions obviously, what I stated are simply what I've gotten out of the metal I've been exposed to and yes, saying something like "i hate metal" is extremely broad and generalizing, but by that same logic saying "i love metal" is equally broad and generalizing

[QUOTE=bdd458;45877707]Whenever someone asks me about metal I generally end up sending them this link [url]http://mapofmetal.com/#/home[/url][/QUOTE] This thing introduced me to eisbrecher and for that it is amazing. Though half the embedded videos don't work
[QUOTE=Paramud;45877859]Let me know when you start listening to Ukrainian orchestral viking death-folk[/QUOTE] Or Russian Turbo Polka Thrash/Folk Metal. [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVWfqOSdzs4"]No, that actually exists.[/URL]
I never listened to Limp Bizkit because I'm not interested in doing it for the nookie
feel free to chip in because there are going to be a lot of glaring omissions (because this is just the stuff I listen to) Traditional (they don't make em like they used to): [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G90ngH2anxQ"]Iron Maiden[/URL] - if you took could take a vote, maiden would be voted the best metal band [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOF0i4I8EcA"]Dio[/URL] [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5yR5XhCIeg"]Black Sabbath[/URL] - yea everyone has heard of sabbath Power (aka cheese): [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sC7iR577OQw"]Blind Guardian[/URL] [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvkYwOJZONU"]Nightwish[/URL] [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-16NwCtZv_Q"]Sabaton[/URL] - tanks Folk (booze and nature): [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7kJRGPgvRQ"]Korpiklaani[/URL] Other (combination of subgenres): [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V8gA1ooxw0I"]Symphony X[/URL]- Prog/Power [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=No230vTfJOE"]Diablo Swing Orchestra[/URL] - Swing see also (aka bands I've never listened to but are good): Dream Theatre, Metallica, Pantera, Opeth Though I don't really know where you're jumping in from, metal is super diverse so there's bound to be something you really like. The difficulty is finding that thing when there are an insane amount of bands out there.
[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;45877898]Here's something really unpopular: I like almost all music from classical to dubstep. No idea why and how people limit themselves to a single genre, or even worse, a single artist. After which they'll argue how "their" music is better.[/QUOTE] Definitely this. My library goes from Enya to Iron Maiden to Daft Punk to Bob Marley. But, what takes up the majority of it is metal or a metal subgenre.

What exactly differs rock from metal? [editline]Check this riff. It's fscking tasty.[/editline] You're also lacking the obligatory [url=http://open.spotify.com/track/7xsfXkjkLkKcN7LVCSQcwQ]Judas Priest[/url]). And [url=http://open.spotify.com/track/4nm9rEC2KiKeQFq3LbDfM0]Grave Digger[/url] (there's like three different versions of the linked song from different bands) if you're into the harder stuff, [url=http://open.spotify.com/artist/1O8CSXsPwEqxcoBE360PPO]Stratovarius[/url] if you like your metal lighter, or [url=http://open.spotify.com/artist/4pQN0GB0fNEEOfQCaWotsY]Helloween[/url] for mixed tastes. You'd also check with Infab if you want any more info on metal, as he's the go-to.
