Axl is really trying tonight, I actually give kudos to him tonight. But his voice is lost, beyond his control, perhaps


I do find it curious whether Axl knows utterly anything about actual voice training. His execution from day one that he has ever performed says....



FUCK NO

Maybe it would be best if he'd put out his autobiography and stopped doing live shows.


His voice still exists, but it needs a break and surgery at the least.


Said it a million times -- GO INTO THE STUDIO AXL!!!! You've got a GREAT band up there, even better with Duff back. Axl could sustain his old voice for take here, take there, piece it together, and you have a vintage Axl voice on a new GN'R record.


Simple enough. But he needs to retire from live shows for awhile imo, unless they are just occasion album promo spots for maybe a month, then off again.

His voice is a legendary trainwreck. But gotta give him stones for even bothering. Jerry Rice, Cornrow, Anti-Depressant 2002 Axl would've never even bothered with this. He must be on Scott Hall painkillers to even be up there and proud.

He just pushes through... gotta give him mad props on that.

Yeah I agree the Ava story is weak, and at this point i'm shocked she hasn't been killed off. The character ironically has had nothing to do since she was hooked up with Boyd on a regular basis. I used to like the tension dynamic between Raylan & Boyd over her, but as soon as she chose unlawful ways, Raylan was done with her.


I agree the Crowes are a weak family, and Michael Rapport was "one too many comedians" cast. Dave Foley, Will Sasso, Mike O'Malley, that new relative that's also a comedy dude. They just casted what they wanted imo, or their friends, instead of actual actors. They felt from day one like a family of stooges, rather than a real threat, and it instead made Boyd look like a pushover. They added Jere Burns (which is great) to the main cast, but you never ever seen him now. The hell?

The show just doesn't work imo outside of Boyd. I said it before and i'll say it again, had this show been arc driven like say Wiseguy or The Sopranos, they would've had something great, just in a cowboy hat. Instead it turned into another modern day western like Walker Texas Ranger or Renegade, with simplistic stories-of-the-week.

Boyd is the only reason I still watch it.

I guess its a job for a repair shop or see if you can pick up a 2nd hand console cheap.

These modern consoles are a fuckin nuisance, theres always something going wrong. I had my ps3 6 months and my controller just died one day, wouldnt charge up, wouldnt do anything, just fuckin died out the blue. I've still got 2 ps2 controllers that are 14 years old and no matter how many times they've been dropped, smashed and stood on, they still fuckin work!


I don't know about that. I have one of the silver PS3 controllers from Sony, and I've dropped that thing... good God... at least 100 times on hard surfaces, stepped on it... the damn paint is coming off of it.


Still works like a dream. Although it is getting to where it doesn't hold a charge as well as it used to, but I never properly charged them anyways.

#979 Re: The Garden » Batman: Arkham Knight » 661 weeks ago

This winter, I got Arkham Origins, and decided to sit down and play the game as a trilogy. Starting with Origins, the prequel story, then going back to Rocksteady's world.

Honestly, considering the clunky moments of Origins and that it was basically a lift of City, watered down, but with a fresh, new & fascinating prequel story, it works playing it that way. The biggest reason to play Origins, is for the storyline, which I think might be arguably a better story than City.

Arkham Asylum, I used to think City was the best game, The Dark Knight to Asylum's Batman Begins. But in hind-sight, it's the T2, to Asylum's T1.

Arkham Asylum might just be a masterpiece. An incredibly MOODY game, Asylum sets an amazing atmosphere. The game is nearly perfect, if for the lack of gadgets, but the story, the feel, the tone... what an atmosphere. That kind of tone that just immerses you in a world.

Arkham City, although very audacious is basically just a straight-forward action film. The story is bigger, but not better, there are more gadgets, which was a plus, but there's more to do, so much to do, that it dilutes several different storylines, rather than Asylum. It's still a great game, but I definitely can see now where City is seen as lesser to Asylum's smaller, but richer world.

Origins is not nearly as bad as it's reputation. Quite good, but it brings nothing new to the table, and is very similar in style to Dark Knight Rises. Bigger, but what new does it bring?

Either way, I look forward to this, but I haven't seen anything, yet, that has wowed me.

4 mins of a standard CGI cutscene with no gameplay. They actually had that almost 20 years ago too.

Yeah I agree. I saw absolutely nothing in the trailer that got my juices going, and right now i'm playing the other games, so I was primed, and still... all it is is a bunch of CGI.

Trouble With The Curve & Escape Plan


Curve was okay, and reminiscent of Eastwood's late 90's films. Okay, but not great. Eastwood basically plays the exact same character from Gran Torino which is kinda boring. Is there nothing Timberlake can't do?


Escape Plan--total fucking remake of Fortress with Christopher Lambert, with less technology, less sci-fi. Schwarzenegger & Jim Caviezel's characters were FAR MORE interesting than Stallone's, and yet was not given near enough expansion in the film. That was probably my biggest issue. I get the 80s throwback action appeal, but even the yet was a little far-fetched for 1985. Otherwise the film felt dragged out, and just never got going for me.
