Good on them. It’s nice to see companies putting their money where their mouth is and actually enacting policies that promote a more diverse workforce.

The plastic on that first design looks like skin being stretched over the shoe. Yuck.

It does not seem extremely likely to me they shut down production of a multi million dollar movie over him snapping at a production assistant.

There’s literally nothing about this game that’s open-world, though. They’re all just discrete levels, like Mario 3D World.

I like how all the “bad” things are attributed to Marvel, and the one thing that was loved (Korg’s outfit) is attributed to Taika Waititi - as if the director of the film was limited to fashion choices. 

I don’t have a problem with this as long as the intrusiveness is low. Running past a billboard in a game, or seeing an ad on an in-game web browser doesn’t impact gameplay and isn’t really bothersome. But if it’s something like an anime that plays trying to sell me an Acura every time I log in, then that would be a…

Sister Act II: Back in the Habit 

it might appear worthless at first glance, until you think about the secondary market of providing fodder for blog posts for sites trying to fill out their quota

Sonic 2 was such an amazing movie.  I feel like it easily smashed the first movie and I thought the first movie was a good movie as it was.  It doesn’t feel like Jim Carey had to break his back carrying the movie as much as he did the first one though.

publishers can’t be relied on to properly preserve their own games, either.

I hate this take. Human beings are animals and will pick the most cheap and convenient option put in front of them as an impulse without thinking of the consequence. Finger-wagging at the general public won't solve the problem. They put those refrigerators by the cash register on purpose, tired thirsty shoppers will…

Most essential items come with mounds of plastic packaging. Yes, I have some degree of choice with certain products - not buying Coke in plastic bottles, for example, but as a modern-day consumer, it’s very nearly impossible to boycott plastic entirely. That’s not my fault, that’s on these companies who insist upon…

I get that new concepts and words can be hard. The singular “they” in English only goes back to the 14th century

Learn English. They is a very common singular pronoun, and has been long before trans folk started using it.

And who paid someone to organize it for them.

That is the pantry of someone who does not use any of the things in their pantry.

They very clearly are not saying “nobody saw it”, with phrases such as “most folks now forget it ever happened at all” and “If you actually went to a show”, so no, they understand people heard of it and went to see it. 

They look totally fine to me...

I immediatly recognize the Sonic shoes without them look too cartoony or completely different from the source material like these are usually are.

I mean, I’d never wear them, but they look pretty damn close to what’s on the movie poster. 

God Kotaku needs to stop with these bad takes that no one asks for.
