Gears of War 1 and 2 were competitive bro-fests, with one non-white character who was playable in both games.

Having watched some gameplay footage, Diana and Bruce have the least-baked animations. It could also be the character design (I prefer Telltale’s more stylized Bruce with his well-defined cheek and chiseled jaw) but those two lack.... life.

It’s the eyebrows!

It’s the eyebrows; there’s no smooth transition when Diana’s talking.

This is a perfect example of why I hate the time period of 2007-2010: obligatory dubstep, goddamn overproduced vocal filters, stutter-jump vidoes.....

Maybe they’ll copy the “swipe to slash” model from other mobile fighters? :shrug: It better not be a Game of War clone.

What about Nintendo Kart, though? :}

Eh. Nethack is great. Pixel Dungeon is great. I found Fists of Resistance to be a good party game. As long as the core gameplay loop is good, nothing else really matters.

nethack-inspired games are always worth a look. Pixel Dungeon is pretty fantastic on Android, for example.

Pirating new, commercially available titles is inarguably wrong. But does that extend to games which are no longer sold? Such as, NHL 2004 - the best version in the world. If you buy it used, EA doesn’t make a cent. If you pirate it, they still don’t make a cent. But it was the absolute best version ever.

Eh. I had springs break in one of my 360 controllers, making it hyper sensitive. The wireless ones suffer from joystick spin drift.

Legacy Collection. It had MGS4, MGS3, MGS2, Peace Walker, MGS1, MG, and MG2.

The ZSS and Sheik nerds at Bayo’s launch were extremely egregious.

Cloud absolutely dominated, especially in doubles. ZSS was nerfed around the time Bayo launched.

Two reasons:

Apparently there’s a patch that you can apply to a rom dump in order to play online again. Haven’t tried it.

Metroid Prime Hunters was one of the *best* FPSes I’ve ever played. That it was portable and crammed into a console weaker than the N64 while maintaining online capabilities was amazing. Especially in 2004. Hands-down one of Nintendo’s best games.

Probably not worth the effort to remaster, though. Spla2oon fills the…

Gun suicides are the leading cause of gun deaths. Owning a gun puts you at higher risk of suicide (it’s easy to use, and suicide tends to be an impulsive act of despair).

Fusion decided they want to publish in an annoying WiReD-style blog (fusion.net), but part of the condition of the purchase of kinja tech was that Univision would have to support it with a replacement for Gawker (fusion.kinja.com)

It is that half added guy fierre fu Manchu that marks him as an ass.
