Not all games are “fun” though, right? Someone please check the Elden Ring review for how often that word comes up.

I’m in my mid-30s and I don’t think I have ever once paid money for a landline, and I haven’t had cable since I lived in a dorm room. I spend more now on streaming than I ever have on TV services. They just kept growing slowly enough that I didn’t notice until I suddenly had four different streaming services and still…

I graduated college in the last recession and was thoroughly underemployed for a few years after that. I thought a cheeseburger and a beer was an expensive meal. Gen Z is still in their early 20s at the old end, so let’s not make any sweeping statements about their spending habits until they’re at a point in their…

I’m pretty sure they said there won’t be a third game in the series because of the development time it takes to put these out. I think this could go in some really dark directions since we know about Loki. And I’ll just leave it at that since there might be some people who haven’t played GOW. 

I don’t know anything about building software, but it boggles my mind that one of the biggest electronics companies in the world built a machine that they knew would have a lifespan of like five to seven years and make it so locked down that this is still an issue years later. I wish games were made to be enjoyed…

Agreed. I got pretty tired of Bond. Casino Royals and Skyfall were great, but the others were just kind of cookie cutter Bond movies.

James Bond is the MOST men’s role. James Bond as a character has only existed to sell suits, expensive watches, liquor and sports cars to middle aged men since the 1960s. One of his primary character traits is being a misogynist.

It’s so strange that this game took so long. They already had such a solid foundation with Black Flag. They just had to come up with some semblance of a story and tack on a multiplayer feature that would probably only have a niche following in the first place. I am wondering what other features they decided to build…

So I feel like I should LOVE Horizon. In fact, I recently told some friends I couldn’t get into it and they all responded with a “Whaaaaa???”

I wish more AAA games would embrace stylized graphics. Cutting edge graphics tend to only look cutting edge until the next big leap. Meanwhile, the cartoony, stylized things look good for decades. 

He’s gotten more annoying as time goes on. He was perfect in Parks n Rec as “Andy,” great in Guardians 1 as “buff Andy,” inexplicably cast in Jurassic Park as “smart Andy” and more annoying in Guardians 2 and Infinity War as “buff Andy but now more emotionally stunted.” 

I can’t see many people getting excited about a Mario movie just because it has the voice of Mario. In fact, that would probably turn more people off just because they would think it’s just a video game tie in when there’s no real story to the video games to start with.

Hear hear! I can fit a power supply behind/under my entertainment center. The big ass PS5, though, needs its own shelf.

I am here for Jedi. What makes Star Wars different if not Jedi and The Force? Even Mando is basically just your run of the mill space marine, as good as that show turned out to be (about half the time).

He was in Dune just a few months before this came out, which was probably the biggest release of the pandemic era. I agree that Star Wars probably didn’t help his career, but he seems like a pretty bankable star, and he does a mix of blockbusters like Star Wars as well as more serious movies.

Anyone who has ever played tag with a child should cringe watching those scenes. Or just anyone at all. 

I don’t want to fault the actress, but I really dislike every scene involving young Leia. The chase scenes should have been embarrassing to film. But the precocious child who talks like an adult and knows everything is annoying the rest of the time.

Yeah, he sees Palpatine name him Lord Vader, but he also cuts off his legs and watches him burst into flames in hot lava. Once he’s literally living under a rock, it makes sense he doesn’t hear about Vader because why would he? I know Vader is well known in certain circles, but I wouldn’t expect him to be a public…

And yet they didn’t even bother to arrest him. He shot at a bunch of cops and got into a massive car chase that ended up with multiple crashes and a few explosions and then Jim Gordon just walks away. 

It was decent. I felt like it was a freshish take on Batman but I wish it were like 45 minutes shorter and that the detective stuff actually felt satisfying. Instead it was a lot of walking slowly and piecing things together that didn’t really seem to fit together. I liked it better than Dark Knight Rises, Joker, and e…
