History will be kind to Rian Johnson/The Last Jedi for at least daring to be interesting and different. Instead, everyone filled their diapers and they panicked and did Rise of Skywalker instead and it sucked.

Turning Mario’s accent into an affectation is actually kinda genius. More clever than I was giving this movie credit for.

The last “time loop game that took PAX by storm” was 12 Minutes, so uh....grain of salt.

Troy Baker has always struck me as a guy who has drank the ND/Druckmann Kool-Aid and thinks TLOU is more important and a bigger deal than it is. That he’d get into some weird “both sides are equally bad and interesting and that’s what makes this so deep and great” thing doesn’t terribly surprise me?

Alyx basically nullifies it anyway, so

Disney should do it like when Mr Burns cut off the beer supply and TV in Springfield to get Homer to give him his teddy bear back: if Disney threatened to cancel some beloved work, like the next Marvel movie, hundreds of mouse-eared Disney adults would be dragging DeSantis out of his house and beating him to death toni…

“And no, this isn’t one of those “I say a friend of mine told me but I really mean myself” kinds of situations.”

In 20 years, there will be bumper stickers of this spooky man peeing on things.

We need a new way to describe Jeff Gerstmann other than “co-founder of [website he doesn’t work for anymore and unceremoniously fired him]”, but I haven’t figured it out yet. Jeff Gerstmann of “The Jeff Gerstmann Show” is no good either. Video game pundit is too generic for what he does and doesn’t belie how singular…

I assume much like how a director might not want their movie jokingly labeled NC 17, the devs might not want their game jokingly marked for sexual content and stuff that makes their game probably harder to find on Steam/probably get review bombed from people who thought they were buying a traditionally sexy game.

It is my understanding that one of the worst things you can do is buy a game, play it, and refund it before the 2 hours. I don’t recommend giving 2K dollars away, though, even if you’ll probably get it back.

I feel like this Rahul gentleman sorta came out of nowhere. I first heard of him when people figured out he was likely dating former games journo/current influencer Alanah Pearce based on pandemic photos both kept posting of the same places.

History has shown that “Brawl Out” and “The GripeBomb” as shorthand to refer to those two events has won out.

Incepting/forcing an NPC to keep doing a job they hate so they will help you solve an in game quest seems like something a mid 2000s indie game would try to do to show you shades of grey and stuff, but here it’s just played straight. Doesn’t sound like the game is trying to say anything, unless it’s a comment on the…

I can’t be the only one who clicked this article to see if Spencer meant “cancel” like what Ubisoft is doing to their unannounced games, or “cancel” like what should happen to Yves Guillemot and other Ubisoft executives.

Love too use illegally obtained goods to promote my game that nobody seems to be paying attention to.

Probably because if it was at the bottom, it’d be annoying like on the Switch.

ActiBlizz just moving a dial labeled “Grindy Bullshit” back and forth, looking at the audience, going “Eh? Eh?” until they stop booing.

Sometimes it can be fun for writers to write around copyright and legal stuff, but it has to be done well. Just cutting stuff out isn’t very fun.

An FPS tower defense game? So like Sanctum?
