and the worst is the terminator 2 game for the snes. good LORD is it bad.

Atari's Terminator: The War Against The Machines is the worst Terminator game by a wide margin. Bad graphics, nonexistent level design, wildly unbalanced gameplay, just a litany of failure. Example: the TechCom basic trooper had an underslung grenade launcher as an alt-fire option. It had six rounds of ammo, so you'd just murk 6 people and go and get more ammo. Repeat.

Completely dead MP at launch. I appreciate shooting at bots in a Terminator-themed FPS, but those things were the worst, you'd be the only human on a server and just be bored to tears.

Absolutely not. I refer you to the game I'm still so angry about 32 years later I posted about it on the first page of this thread:

I stand corrected, that game is hot, sweaty garbage.

What did they steal?

The idea of time traveling murder robots. Specifically from the short story "Demon with a glass hand".

It's weird how much more relatable the adult characters are now, watching them try to rationalize and downplay the severity of the situation. When watching this movie as a kid, Kyle Reese seemed like such a grown up, badass soldier. Now watching it and realizing I'm older than his character, he just looks like a terrified kid who missed out on a healthy childhood. :smith:

Sarah is about the same age. They grow up so fast.

One of my very favorite scenes in T:SCC is when John is bummed out about nothing happening for his birthday, so Derek takes him to the park and buys him ice cream. They sit on a bench for a while and then Derek says "See that kid over there, can't throw a ball to save his life? That's your father."

That's good writing right there.

but did she have to turn into a urinal?

I'ma go with no, but it sounded good in the writer's room so they went for it.

The writer's strike is why we got a short first season. The bad stretch was a super experimental psychological study that really, really didn't pay off. It was only 3-4 episodes though so it was back to good by the, undeserved, ending.

The actual best scene would be massive spoilers. Potter's Field

with the 48 hour film festival coming up this weekend, I will meditate on this masterclass in turning budget limitations into p. dece stylistic choices

TSCC was really good about delivering impactful scenes on very low budgets. This one for example. It's an end of season 1 spoiler, so be advised.
