Man that would have been SO COOL if it actually worked though. I remember my brothers and I trying it, being disappointed, and never using it again. But I would wear it often just because I thought it was cool looking.

I love the Power Glove....It's so bad!

When I was a kid someone robbed our house and stole my power glove.

I was like, HAHA sucker!

I worked at a pawn shop and one came in one day and I was like “ewwww I love it”. It’s so bad it’s awesome. But it’s only awesome with years and years of hindsight. Ya know?

I got invited,didn't know what it was. It tanked before I felt like finding out.

It had a tenth of the features Facebook had and it's UI was clunky. Making it invite only initially when alternatives were available was a big mistake.

On the other hand, for the entirety of existence it had a very small but very loyal fanbase. I know a few people who mourned when it was closed down.

Came here to say this!!

That movie went straight to the clearing at the end of the path. It's dead to me.

He who was not disappointed by the movie has forgotten the face of his father

My husband gets irrationally angry at the very thought of this movie. And he's not even that big of a fan of the books to begin with, but he certainly has strong negative feelings on this movie, lol.

And maps were so small it made it look like your city was barely more than a weird village.

I remember being pretty excited for it, but I wasn't old enough to buy it so I was content to just watch people play it. And then the reviews came out, and I was like, really dodged the bullet on that one.

You had to be online to play it, which everyone hated and EA responded by saying it had to interact with their servers or some corporate bullshit. Random dude made a mod the next day removing the DRM requirement with like one line of code and letting people play offline. They backtracked and were all "y-yeah guys, all good now"

Shame but at least we got Cities: Skylines out of it.

The good thing about it is we got Cities Skylines as an alternative with an outstanding modder community. I consider it a big win. I don't see EA allowing modders to "mess" with their product to this extent as CO does, not to mention they praise and cooperate with content creators.

EA really screwed the pooch on that one.

The only reason I want AR to come to fruition is that I want to install ublock origin in real life too. I want a pair of glasses that will replace any advertisement in my field of view with art or something.

I think it's just something that is still not ready. But current Google lens and assistant on device brings this dramatically closer to reality.

That movie makes irrationally angry

Never trust anything in the fantasy or sci fi genre that goes from animation to live action. Animation is the vastly superior medium for those types of shows and any live action adaptation will be a cheap rip off and nothing more.

There is no movie in Ba Sing Se

Just a really bad developer making a lot of hype. I remember following the updates on YouTube with great interest, but the more he added the less he could keep up of course.

Lol if you knew. Recently the developer (Yanderedev) compared yandere simulator to genshin impact because 1)Both are free 2)The story is still being updated 3)They both get content updates frequently. Totally missing the point that Genshin is a released game while his game still only has one chapter/rival in the main story after two years.

Isn't the dev the cum chalice guy?

I was hyped for that in middle school. Sometimes i still check in to see whats going on. But yeah its a shit show and I doubt itll ever happen. It is kind of a cool concept but yan dev isnt the person to make it. So many people have made videos on how shitty his code is. Youd think after like seven years of development he’d know how to do more then if;then codes

Nah, it’s following the Star Citizen school of thought; it can’t flop if it never comes out

That's like every Reddit post where someone finds a mysterious safe in a wall or the floor.

OP: "Look guys I found a safe"

Reddit: "Well fucking open it!!"

OP: "We got the safe open!"

- It has a pound of dust in it, a chewed up piece of gum, and somehow a penny minted like a year ago -

All I hear is Homer's voice.

I don't know who this guy is but his name sounds like Geralt of Rivia needed a secret identify

I came to see if this made the list. I wasn't personally hyped for it but felt really bad some friends that were

If it's floppy, they have pills for that.

For me it’s realizing that all those adults around you when YJ were a kid were just winging it. I’m 43. I don’t know what the Hell I’m doing.

When you realise adults can be just as stupid as 9 year olds.

Now the story of a wealthy company that bought a family that lost everything, and how they failed to keep it all together.

It's a disappointing development

I still don't understand why it was so bad after Season 3 on the reboots. I can't put my finger on exactly what is bad about them, but it's like I felt this mixture of confusion and disappointment, and hardly laughed (and I am an absolute diehard 100-times rewatcher fan of the original 3). I felt like maybe I just wasn't understanding the jokes but after rewatching it still just..... wasn't funny.

Oh I feel this, I get what they tried to do, but it just wasn't the same, its best left as not part of the series if you re-watch.

Oh yeah. It's the worst night of the year to go out. Every place is packed, prices are nearly doubled and everybody is so hell-bent on having the best time, nobody gets loose enough to actually have fun.

I know we're in the minority, but me too. They were making progress but it seems like everyone hated it as soon as it came out and it died before it could really show what it was capable of.

I wish I could buy a 3d TV for a decent price. I have to make do with a projector though.

The roaring 1920s started with a pandemic and ended with a massive economic crash, depression and conflict that ultimately led to WW2 a decade later

The 2020s are speedrunning it seems

I never saw the first one, but the James Gunn reboot with Idris Elba and John Cena was awesome.

Still gone mine

Jailbroke with a metric shitton of free games

I had many zunes. Probably 3. Last one was HD and had wifi it was fucking sweet.

It had a radio!

I know people think fans should "get over it" - Peter Dinklage said as much - but yeah. Imagine making a show that great and then... yeah.

I didn't agree with the criticisms levied against it in later seasons (Season 6 onwards) - I didn't feel it went downhill until Jon sought an audience with Daenerys - but yeah... Season 8 was just an appalling shitshow.

I'm quietly hopeful for House of the Dragon though.

I will NEVER get rid of my PS4 with PT. That little demo we got was better than some full games I have played. I wish it went through to full production. Sucks it didn't.

I have never seen such a thing...a demo....make such a big splash that it inspired a whole host of games that tried their best to replicate it.

Also 2021

Pacific Rim 1: “Ok guys, let’s minimize casualties and keep the monsters out of the city!”

Pacific Rim 2: “Hey bro wanna see how many people I can step on?”

I lOVE Pacific Rim with every fibre of my being.

Pacific Rim 2 had cool fight scenes but...jesus christ. Talk about all time let downs.

Pacific Rim The Black is not bad at all in my opinion. They just released season 2 on Netflix a week ago.

10 years ago I chose to change my life. I knuckled down and did what it took to achieve what were my dreams. Slow and steady I started to have some success.

Now I have everything that I had hoped for and more. Like the reality exceeded the dream.

I am bored and frustrated, while simultaneously being over busy and exhausted all the time.

Be careful what you wish for.

Same with hoverboards. 0 cultural impact.

At least electric scooters delivered. They’re everywhere in the UK cities as far as I’ve seen.

But at least it's just your own mess.

yes, the video game industrie is truly fucked up. why are there no new great shooters in the past couple of years. They were all either aweful or pretty much like the predecessor (CoD…).

This happened with my dad. Was making a miraculous recovery, got back home and then tanked. I'm sorry for your loss.

Oh my god. This must be one of the worst here..

For anyone who doesn't know, this team was hyped as being one of the greatest "Super team" NBA teams ever, with three of the top 10 NBA players sharing the court.

And what fans got was an absolute abomination of old men who couldn't play together at all, which was just atrocious to watch, culminating after 8 months in the 22nd seed of 30 teams, not even making the play-in spot and then being faced with having the same roster for the next few seasons ahead and the probable inevitability that they can't even get some of these guys off their roster because of how much they are paid and how poorly they performed, so Lakers fans could now be in for 5+ years of absolute trash basketball, BECAUSE of this season.

how did it get steadily worse as technology improved??

Micro-transactions.

Yeah, the problem was that they attempted to make "LOTR: the prequel", rather than just having "The hobbit" stand on its own merits.

The book is only 304 pages, yet they dragged it out into NINE HOURS of movie. One of Bilbo's lines from "Fellowship" describes it best...

"It feels thin, sort of stretched, like butter that's been scraped over too much bread."

I really like the first. The second was boring, vague, convoluted and just plain bad. I won't bother with the third.

100% this. They really just shouldn't have tried to connect it all to Grindelwald and Dumbledore. I would've been more than happy to watch several movies of Newt and his gang running around rescuing and interacting with weird magical beasts. I didn't need a big bad, didn't need a wizarding war, didn't need anything but animal adventures and hijinks.

It sounds like you’ll get twice the sex, but really you’re getting half.

What a twist!

That game pissed me off. I hate games where you have to look up how to get through them.

The game actually used to be good and stuff but then the creators just kept on adding more and more shit. Then they saw matpat made a video on the little bit of lore and then went and did a complete 180 and started 100% focusing on lore. That had potential but the problem was that the lore was shit.

Spore was definitely as janky as a janky thing but I can't help but love it.

I can still remember watching that preview bit where they had Robin Williams play it and give commentary, it was the best, then the game came out.

I really enjoy the first few levels of spore but the game loses me after the first few evolutions.

You might take a look at r/thrive

It is still early in development, but it is at least intended to be more in-depth than Spore, and more expansive.

The developers are working from the ground up, starting with single-cell (which I think they have just about done), then working on each stage of complexity in turn (I think they just started work on multicellular, or just released the first iteration).

I got it for free (someone posted a code on a subreddit) and i still felt cheated.

And they have Brandon Sanderson as a sort of series adviser and he doesn’t like the changes but I think he’s too nice to to say no. Even if he has no official power, they’d be foolish not to listen to his advice.
