How does this work? I'm not using it so finding my pass, logging in etc just to understand what lootboy says is a hassle xD Is it worth it at all?

I doubt Egs does it too but they're not saints and their client slowdown everything and takes a lot of bandwith, sometimes I couldn't even open pages and I even disabled automatic updates.. It's weird..
ehm sometimes it is better find solutions by ourselves or on tech forum you can find better advices then what customer care can give.

Don't use it? or play offline? :ROFLMAO:

Kill the Epic Online Service maybe after launch or shut off/unplug the internet after you start a game and get past DRM should work.

Worked for FF7R at least, I could even plug it in when i wanted to quit and it would cloud save heh.

I don't even remember, I just looked up the error code in my local ancient MSDN (which means it wasn't some Windows 10 new hidden tactic) and then narrowed it down because the fact they told me to contact 'Microsoft' was disgraceful...to both of us lol.

I was hoping to be back and crippled by now, but things didn't only NOT go as planned...idfk how they did go. Legit.

Long story short I was told by the owner I had it tomorrow and it'd be done...but the guy dealing with the details never responded to me about paperwork and I needed to do it today.

So I'm just going to roll up with my life and see if they wanna send me packing and pay for all the money it cost me on top of dicking me around lol.

Right now I'm remembering other older arcades I loved to play: Arkanoid , Bomb Jack, Pengo and of course Bubble Bobble with all its variations.

Bubble Bobble is a classic. The pizza joint we'd hang out at after high school had that and an Area 51 co-op shooter game. A lot of our lunch money went into those cabinets 🤑

Nah, Amidar isn't similar to Gals Panic (I like that game btw.). In Amidar, you have sort of like a chessboard but with irregular size of squares and you need to colour the borders of those squares while being chased by enemies. If you colour all 4 corner squares, you can "eat" your enemies like in Pacman. So, it's sort of Pacman+Gals Panic hybrid but I think it's an older game than both of those two.

Speaking of coloring squares, it reminds me of probably my best arcade achievement - I once beat Q-bert! I made it through all stages in all 9 levels! Lots of @!#?@! words and sweat was shed that night.
That's either my top achievement, or bowling a 560 on skee-ball (with 9 balls):

Also, I enjoyed your storytime post about Donkey Kong's hidden sex scene :ROFLMAO: Now with that tale in my head, I head to bed.

I'm a couple of weeks into a brand new job that I didn't really want to move to, and the whole situation has been pretty hectic and stressful for me, and honestly a bit depressing. I'm starting to adapt, but it hasn't been the happiest transition, and I haven't had as much free time lately.

That sucks to hear Klingki. Hoping life settles down for you soon and lands you in a job you enjoy (I'm struggling in a dead end job of my own 🤝). Until then, keep adapting and know we're rooting for you

I would like have some snow, last time it snowed it was like 11 years ago:LOL:

I'd offer you some of ours, but we've had a pretty dry winter all said and done so we really need the couple of feet of snow we've gotten this month...

I have NEVER beat Q-bert to this day lol...or came close to that skee-ball score :LOL:

Ironically I suck at ski ball and i'm good at billiards and bowling ?!?? :ROFLMAO:

I've only bowled once in my life that I can recall, chose my own ball by weight judgement and threw at least 5 strikes that game, 3 in a row after the second or 3rd frame (I wanted to do the al bundy dance :LOL:), as well as a 7/10 split on another.

I bowled a 230 that game...and never looked back, maybe beginners luck, maybe natural talent...but its just not my game of choice.

I enjoy skee ball more, so i'll continue to suck at it hahaha.

Bubble Bobble owns ;)

Great fun bowling tho 😁

Not at all as amazing as 10 pin bowling but if you're nowhere near a bowling alley this is still fun.

230 is a wicked good score bowling! And like twice the score I usually get when I go :ROFLMAO: I even sucked at Wii Bowling...

As for Skee-Ball, here's a tip for you all for the machines that have the netting on the sides and top - if you bowl the ball fast enough down the middle, it will go up the ramp and into the top net. The top net is usually angled in a way that the tension sends the ball straight down into the 50 point hole ;) It seems hard but is surprisingly easy to get a hang of.

I find all video games base on real accuracy like that to be flawed, enjoyable, but flawed, especially shooting games.

230 is a really good score, Idk if I could do it again tbh...I was playing with a girl who was in a league and she didn't believe I never bowled before, I was also drinking mikes hard lemonades the whole day, I barely believe it :ROFLMAO:

I took a trip out to the stix just to meet an online friend...it was the only time I've ever left state on my own, on a bus, and obviously the only time I ever did it to meet someone from the internet.

Reality was I just wanted to go somewhere and I was prepared to handle whatever might have went down if it did for the short escape. Luckily it was really just the person I knew from the net and over the phone...but damn its fucking boring surrounded by corn all day, only shit TO do was bowl or drugs really :ROFLMAO:

Pro-Tip right there :LOL:

If I ever come across a skee-ball machine again I'm gonna to try this, which is about the only common arcade machine at beaches and shit everywhere, so its likely.

Unfortunately i have no tips for bowling since I have no clue htf I did it myself. Try to avoid the gutter and aim slightly off center? :ROFLMAO:

I actually think classic NES bowling was as close to the legit place to hit the pins as I've ever seen in a video game personally for a strike, at least how i got them....which doesn't speak well of all these modern 'physics based games. Pool games are much worse, but I'm not nearly as good at pool as I was doing that day either...so maybe I just suck again haha.
