aardwolf posted:IIRC, there are hilariously bad dubs of the line for both Die Hard 1 and 2, so you might both be right. fwiw "Live Free or Die Hard" which I think is 4? Is a much better movie with the censored track compared to the later released "uncut" version, though I'm not sure if they actually did a redub there or just shot the scenes twice? In the theatrical censored release during the tunnel set piece, after he drives a car off a ramp to blow up a helecopter the kid says: "You killed a helecopter with a car" And McClain just does a guttural: "Ran outta bullets," pretty decent line! In the uncut version, he does an extended bit about "there are millions of traffic accidents in the US every day, this is just one more" and it completely misses the point That movie is both terrible and I love it for being so incredibly far over the top that it's almost a parody of itself. Real shame they didn't keep following that energy for the 5th movie which is just irredeemable garbage

My TI-83+ got me into programming, which is probably the most useful thing I learned in middle school considering I've got a computer toucher job. Man the games I made were so terrible, I wish it hadn't died so I could dig them up and save them

Arivia posted:I see the Duke Nukem Forever collector’s edition, even turned facing in. You can’t hide your shame from me! I bought a copy of duke nukem forever off of gamefly way back when because it was like $2.50 to own a historical trainwreck and they shipped me multiple copies lol Guess they really need to get rid of them

Cojawfee posted:I miss when guides were more of a companion to look at when you are stuck and not just the crap these days where it's just "go here, open this door, punch in 3048 at the code pad, walk forward 3 squares, left 2 squares, forward 4 squares" Ok, but where did you get this information? I hate when I find a puzzle in a game and I just want to know where in the game I can find the hint that says how to solve it. Instead the guide sends you directly to the puzzle and gives the solution. Or god help you if you get stuck part way through and want to check a guide that turns out to be written like this They'll give no frame of reference for anything, so you can't figure out if you're in the right place without going all the way back to the start of wherever you are and following it to the letter.

Weatherman posted:Was that something along the lines of, there was a book published that was supposed to be a real life treasure hunt with an almost literal pot of gold at the end; it was quite successful and someone ended up winning; then some grifter decided to make his own version to ride the coattails of the first and created basically what you described? There were a few of these style things I think, speaking of obsolete stuff. There was one where it was a big ARG and you bought packs of trading cards that had puzzles. They actually had a staff of people playing the characters online and did live events as well with live real time puzzling action. It was called perplex city I think? Iirc the whole thing was to find a cube buried somewhere in the world, and it was a 50k pound prize, or something like that? It was probably over a decade ago now, but I was really into reading about it when it was going on
