If games get more advanced utilizing new tech AND becomes more fun, providing a more amusing show and entertainment ofc it will devalue older not so fun and amazing games. This is just as normal as nobody finding an electronic tube fat tv great anymore

Sure there may be a nostalgic and collector value in old things, but as a whole it will devalue lesser and older stuff.
If this continous, which is great btw i dont think the cgc model holds up much longer.

Quoted from Coindork:

.
As prices continue to rise on NIB pins, older pins that can be had much cheaper than NIB items look pretty darn desirable from a monetary standpoint.

In all fairness. Is the price of stuff really going up, or is the value of money going down?

Quoted from branlon8:

May I just take this opportunity to congratulate you on the large number of up- and downvotes you have received. You have poked the bear.

I think it´s redicoulus.
Being worried that conventional new not exceptional games like stranger things, munsters etc will drop in price if something considered gamechanging will come up, seems totally fair. Ts isnt even rude or anything.
Then the thread basically revolves around harpying and non-sense ignoring topic, makes it worse.

If an awesome new electric car going 600miles on one charge, costing as a petrol car with better stats, would you scuff at a thread wanting to discuss if petrol cars companies was about to go out of buisness?

Quoted from Extraballz:

Damn straight Rush is the best Canadian Rockers. No one else is even close.

How about that summer of 69 guy?

Quoted from Extraballz:

Some of Rush’s best songs were not their mainstream hits. They wrote this song after a visit to NASA to watch a Space Shuttle launch.
Rush takes you on a journey and tells a great story along the way. And here I thought a lot of pinheads were technical nerds. And I mean that in the best possible way.... Turn it up. Hope you enjoy.

Lit up with anticipation
We arrive at the launching site
The sky is still dark, nearing dawn
On the Florida coastline
Circling choppers slash the night
With roving searchlight beams
This magic day when super-science
Mingles with the bright stuff of dreams
Floodlit in the hazy distance
The star of this unearthly show
Venting vapours, like the breath
Of a sleeping white dragon
Crackling speakers, voices tense
Resume the final count
All systems check, T minus nine
As the sun and the drama start to mount
The air is charged — a humid, motionless mass
The crowds and the cameras,
The cars full of spectators pass
Excitement so thick — you could cut it with a knife
Technology — high, on the leading edge of life
The earth beneath us starts to tremble
With the spreading of a low black cloud
A thunderous roar shakes the air
Like the whole world exploding
Scorching blast of golden fire
As it slowly leaves the ground
Tears away with a mighty force
The air is shattered by the awesome sound
Like a pillar of cloud, the smoke lingers
High in the air
In fascination — with the eyes of the world
We stare…

Worst shite i ever heard.

Quoted from Extraballz:

Glad at least one person liked it. Lol. I was also into metal in the 80’s. Still remember seeing Master of Puppets tour in a small venue in Rhode Island. The speed and complexity of metal kind of got me interested in RUSH in the first place. I also like the material RUSH writes songs about. Not just sex drugs and rock and roll. Now in my late 40’s the 80’s RUSH seems to appeal to me the most. Heavy Synth and a much more subdued sound from their earlier stuff.
Another obscure one. Very non RUSH sound. Almost a POP song.

Total shite.
It"s so bad, it's funny.

Quoted from newbieinKC:

I was going to leave this thing alone (see what I did there?) Except Slash, no GNR member could earn their way onto the stage musically with Rush. I appreciate GNR for what they were, a Pop Heavy Metal Bond that sang about drugs and girls and lived the rock n' roll lifestyle. They made catchy tunes and introduced more than their fair share of young men to Metal with a nice ballad often enough to make the young girls want to watch their shows as well. I have no interest in trying to say that GNR does not have their place as icons They deserve to be in the Rock HOF because of their influence on the genre and their music. Geddy and Neil were pretty close to if not the best at their instruments. Alex might have been the least heralded member of the band, and he is quite an artist. Post your video of you playing any of the parts of La Villa Strangiato and maybe you will change my mind.

You can say what you want, but I know crap when i hear it.
The singer looks like a super creapy version of the warrior come out and play sleeze, and sure as shit didn't attract anybody.

Are bandmembers of rush trying to hijack this thread?

#320 3 years ago
Quoted from Extraballz:

Oh! You know crap when you hear it. Lol. I think I will listen to the hundreds of professional musicians worldwide who look up to RUSH as gods instead. OK? Keep talking. You look like a fool.

Why Dont you start your own rush thread, there you can discuss whether
Rush or bros as a band themed pin, will be the worst selling ever.
