Kizuna Encounter is pretty insane, this was one of those many NeoGeo games that I never got a chance to mess around with until now.

Big thanks to SNK for providing us with access codes!

For REAL they missed on both of those. Ozzy/Sabbath going on before he passed, even before he got too sick to tour would have been so cool.

Hoping Bad Bunny crushes that shit.

Hellpockets @hellpockets.bsky.social · 5d

You right, I think I'm just mad it didn't happen. Pretty sure even Metallica knows it's too late, just sucks for me though.

They weren't always that old though. There was a time where they were right in that age group, super big and they still got blocked out. Superbowl still ran The Stones in 06. Just think that became l deserve that courtesy for their impact.

Super overdue, and it's not just them. Feels The Bay gets lumped in with socal artists which is definitely not what they was trying to convey. The two scenes actively were competing.

Really good point, and I don't expect that to change but with them finally stepping outside of their circle with the Stranger Things nod, I think they'd open things up for an appearance

Hellpockets @hellpockets.bsky.social · 5d

Bro exactly. I'm just glad that a lot of really cool bay area bands are hungry and going for it now, but the entertainment industry acts like no one ever did anything her except Metallica

Hellpockets @hellpockets.bsky.social · 5d

I also saying this every year so I guess it don't mean shit to say it now. It's just crazy how the NFL don't read the room.

Got no problems with the Bad Bunny halftime show but if I'm gonna be real, it's the Bay area and I said it last time the bowl rolled through. Metallica should play it.

Thanks, I've got some handbrake experience, just hadn't seen any examples of 60FPS on the platform yet. If I get stuck anywhere I'll hit you up!

Myself and few others did some quick interviews for Weili's channel at Vegas Climax this last weekend!

If I could leave the future generations with any sort of wisdom, it would be: LOOK AT YOUR FUCKING EMAILS

Has anyone been able to accomplish 60fps on this platform? This would be a game changer!
