God, we get it. You’re edgy and like to offend people. Go talk to a therapist and get a real personality.

Look at it as a difficulty increase. Git gud, Scrabble pros.

The Last Jedi is the best of the Disney Star Wars movies, too.

The idea of writing a whole trilogy before filming is dumb.

Man, I LOVED his takes on Star Wars with The Last Jedi. Still bummed that The Rise of Skywalker, despite having lot of great stuffs and ideas in it, ruined what made that movie great with its themes that would have elevate the franchise to newly unexplored places. Oh well.

“I spent 2019 criss-crossing Japan researching my book Pure Invention: How Japan’s Pop Culture Conquered the World, in search of the country’s architects of cool.” 

Man, that trailer took a real turn when it revealed that Ash was now a washed-up old trainer who hates all Pokemon except for a Miltank that he milks and then drinks angrily from.

Back then, there actually was less distinction between a console and a “PC” (PC being a term that has changed meaning over time). I mean, they literally named the thing Family Computer.

I never put the two together, but damn that makes sense. A quick Google shows you are not alone in that thought:

I don’t know if this is true or not but originally, the NES wasn’t going to be sold by Nintendo themselves. I remember reading an article once that stated that Nintendo asked Atari, and Atari refused.

Kotaku has always had good writing like this. The problem is the people complaining about Kotaku never actually read Kotaku outside of the social justice pieces they hate so much because that’s all that ever gets linked in places like /r/KotakuInAction, so that’s all they ever see.

I studied at Ritsumeikan for a bit and I never knew they had a game development program! Really interesting interview!

Infinity Ward, are you watching? Not that Destiny 2 has been fun for me for years, but jesus christ, but in Modern Warfare we are now sitting at 191 GB on PC. Like chill the fuck out, the next gen systems don’t even have room for this and many other games.

Wow.  Really fascinating stuff!  Who knew the color scheme was based on just a scarf someone liked?

I feel like the people complaining about this forget/don’t know/don’t care that Sega also has a very long-running, important history in Japan as an arcade developer. I believe that’s the whole point of this. For those complaining that ‘Sega needs to get its act together,’ this pays just as much tribute to Sega’s…

Games like this are why I’ve developed a subliminal aversion to trying indie games on the Switch. It’s a shame, too - the first year or two, it was possible to buy a $5-20 indie game, try it out, and find something at least interesting. The last game I truly went in blind on (and liked it) may be Road Redemption. These…

Has someone put something in the water that’s suddenly making famous women over 50 decide they really want to erase transpeople or something?
