Almost no one who says they were canceled has actually been canceled. They were hit with the concept of cancelation as a zeitgeist reference directed at them among groups of people.

I was 13 years old in 1996 playing the demo for the tenth time I got with my copy of PC Gamer Magazine, that’s how obsessed I was with this game.

This just makes me yearn more for the open world Pokemon Snap Nintendo never got around to...

What if they don’t have a dick?

Can she pull off a sweat-soaked ribbon-trapeze performance without lip-synching? Perhaps we’ll see.

Sounds like white collar crime.

I played Halo, Halo 2 Multiplayer, and Halo Infinite and it kind of fits my vague understanding of stuff going on in that universe in a way that made me more interested to keep watching. I think there’s one addition to the show that doesn’t really match what I understood of the games and brings it more in line lazily…

Hell, I think Skyrim has more daily players than Starfield RIGHT NOW.

I’m not sure what it is exactly (I played Divinity:OS1 and liked it, after all; and I play tabletop D&D), but I just have 0 interest in BG3.

Evil is less a person in Miyazaki’s films that you overcome and defeat than it is a condition that spreads and which needs to be resisted and changed.

The reason African-Americans are often so skeptical of Israeli policies is because some of us did the same thing in Africa a hundred years earlier.

Boilerplate isn’t in and of itself defensible of bad policy.

I let her live in my first two playthroughs, but sadly I just got past Moonrise Tower and I don’t think I’m going to complete a third. At least they finally got this right!

The entire staff of Deadspin quit months ago, they’ve got plenty of problems over there that have nothing to do with Gizmodo.

Pitch Guy: Phew. To be honest, when I pitched an adaptation of “The Torment Nexus” and they called the cops on me I thought my career in this town was over!

This is what I do when I’m back in my room:

Fun fact. The United States is not a signatory to the International Criminal Court and does not recognize its jurisdiction. Furthermore, in 2002, immediately after the Afghanistan invasion, Congress passed a law called the American Service-Members’ Protection Act. Despite its laudable name, it authorizes the United…

Many people joined the Khmer Rouge because the US bombed their towns and murdered their family and friends.
