What makes it any better than any other bulking powder?
Click to expand...
Not been on the farms for some time, so late reply.

Regular bulking powder or it is called gainers in the fitness supplement world. Problem with them, is they don't really contain any nutrient of worth. Mainly simple sugars, which will just make you fat. So a bulk on a gainer will be a dirty bulk, meanwhile a clean bulk is bulking with something that’s healthy.
But you can easily make your own gainer that isn't horrible nutrition wise.
Blend up oatmeal to flour with a high powered blender.
Add protein powder.
Add peanut butter.
Add milk.

Isn't Panzer Dragoon Saga still difficult to play on an emulator because Saturn emulation sucks, or am I a few years out of date on that?

Nope.

At this point, almost any commercial game that was on retail is playable on emulators. Even if you want to use the original console, you can just burn the game on a cd and play it that way.

Retro game collecting has become this cesspool of fat neckbeards and weirdos hoarding this shit.

Free MCboot is amazing. I can download and burn any PS1/2 game on original hardware. I was so happy when I learned I can play burnt PS1 games using a swap magic-like trick.

I have some games that I have kept and I have paid up to a hundred dollars for old games in perfect condition that I really care about, but the market for retro is absolute garbage at this point. I could probably flip the game I paid 100$ for a few years ago for at least a 5x profit at this point.

Sad really how they've made collecting old consoles so toxic and expensive. I like playing on my OG Xbox, but if I hadn't bought it from a thrift store, I'd be paying well over 100. I'm just glad it's driven the development of emulation.

Never in my life did I ever thought that my 3ds would be "worth" almost double the price I bought it for.

Ok, "emulation, pc, bla bla bla", leaving that aside; this wouldn't be nowhere near as bad if consoomers didn't spend that much on old stuff.

Special edition Nintendo portable systems always tend to go for way more than a basic model does on the secondary market. If you are a scalper/flipper, you can make decent money off those models of the portables since they are made in limited quantities compared to the more vanilla versions of the systems.

Funny that neckbeards have driven up the price of it after a functional Xbox emulator came into existence.

I collect consoles and older games and shit like this baffles me. I ran into one of these cretins in the wild at a local game store chain. He was exactly like the Sony guy except with Xbox shit. I think I was buying Mech-Assualt for OG Xbox and this guy mentions that he has 4 copies. I say something like "that's neat" while thinking that's why this is $10 instead of $5.

It doesn't end there. This man was on a quest and he needed to let me and the clerk know about it. He was obtaining every Xbox game and accessory. He was buying the Chicken Little movie game and like 6 other games. I don't remember what the others were but Chicken Little sticks out because I thought there is no way he's going to play it. Dipshits like this are the reason vintage game and old electronics prices are inflated. I own a CRT TV not because I saw one on Stanger Things but because I like to play Time Crisis.

Look Mech Assault is good, a highlight of the OG Xbox era that needs to be ported. He has 5 copies. Bruh. 4 other people could have played that. And should. Then buying random shit like chicken little? Your apartment ( no way he saves enough for a storage unit) must be fucking full.

I'll go off topic but I had my doubts about a console Mechwarrior game. I had PS2 when I was a wee tot so Xbox is kind of new to me beyond playing at a friend's house. Mech-Assualt fucking rocked. I even got Mechwarrior 2 for PSX. They were all really good ports and I did not expect that. I'm kind of a consoomer when it comes to Battletech shit but in my defense 60 ton death robots are awesome.
