So a while back I ordered three games.

Then much more recently I got a shipping notification. Two, in fact. I found that odd but kept on keeping on.

Last week on Tuesday I got the package. I opened it up, got my two games, and was happy. Do you see the discrepancy? I didn't even realize until the following day but eventually I had that "there were supposed to be three games!" moment. So I emailed support. I got a reply THAT DAY. I did not expect that.

The support person asked for pictures of the games I did get and the shipping label on the box so I thought "oh great, I'm gonna get jerked around." So I took the pictures and sent them and also mentioned the two shipping emails I got.

Well

I just started watching and some have first thoughts. I don't know if I love yet the addition of actual supernatural elements (vampires, werewolves, clairvoyance, etc.) And Luis Guzmon as Gomez seems like an odd casting choice.

But Tim Burton's goth look works, as always, and Danny Elfman created an excellent score so atmospherically this is great.

Without spoilers, how do you all feel about the show?

I want to expose my niblings to all the games from my childhood, but I'm hoping to buy/build an emulator box I can load everything on instead of having a dozen or so consoles hooked up somewhere.

So what's the easiest option for a home console type thing that I can load with roms of my collection and have RA on so they can get achievements as they play?

I'm curious, how much stuff are y'all waiting on? Post your lists because I'm hoping someone is waiting on more stuff than me. Also, I have four orders that are over a year old - no point there, it just sucks.

Here's my list of shame:

I'm a big fan of old Greek and Egyptian gods and mythology and I was wondering if there's any good horror films set in those times? Having a monster/slasher film where the villain is Medusa or Anubis just sounds so cool to me!

So, as it seems a number of you are doing too, I'm doing my annual horror movie marathon where I watch a different horror movie every night of October. A lot of indie and b-budget films.

The best one I've found this year would be either Wolfcop or Fear PHarm. I'm just wondering for anyone else doing a similar marathon, or just for people watching horror movies regularly, what's the best one you've stumbled across this year?

Will companion slots be obtainable for free if you adjust the difficulty setting for purchases? I tried and it looked like it was still going to cost a bunch of nanites but I didn't know if it was just a bug or if I had to restart or if that's just intentional.

First off, how available are these things now? If you go on the site and order one with all the modules and a gun controller, does it ship in a reasonable timeframe or do you have to wait months or years for it?

Second, I know it's an emulator box so has anyone tried any modern indie games? How many of them work? I'm guessing stuff by 64kb games or little standalone things like Haunted Halloween, UXO, Turtle Paint, etc. have no hope of working, but have they worked with companies like Mega Cat, Piko Interactive, Morphcat, PixelHeart, etc. to get those games added to their DB of recognizeable roms? And do reprints like the LRG Sega CD re-releases register as valid games?

Third, how are the
