I don’t think any game’s managed to make me have the same emotional response that losing a powerhouse soldier in ironman XCOM did (though losing a major battle I should have won in CK2 in Ironman mode has come close). Somehow, I doubt that’s what these awards are talking about when they say emotion.

Tauntaun sucks. I’ll be the first to tell you that. Should jump off that thing immediately.

Not that it matters, but if Undertale’s cleaning up the gamefaqs polls, there’s some sort of shenanigans going on. Ignoring the “SJW” angle, indie PC games simply don’t smoke something like Super Mario World in these types of head to heads, no matter what they are and no matter what the subject matter. Gamefaqs is…

Super Empire still somewhat holds up as a platformer. Sidescrollers tend to age pretty gracefully.

Concept of “cultural appropriation” as a form of evil is absolutely insipid. Just a terrible, merit-less idea that disturbingly has way too much traction at universities right now.

Or perhaps mankind has gone into the stars themselves and faces a larger stage of aliens at war.

No who was not what?

The plot of ID was uncomplicated (this was a strength for that type of movie), self-contained and didn’t leave any loose ends.

That’s not weird so much as that the republic ships seem to be able to take twice as much damage before they explode.

I think, if the hype train ends, it won’t be against Aldo. Not to say he’ll win, but he won’t get embarrassed, I don’t think. If the Mendes fight should have taught us anything, it’s that McGregor is way, way too big for his division and, because of that, can ignore shots that would end fights against most guys in the…

Love these MMA articles.

You have to choose them for a partner. There’s some icon at the top of the screen for this, but I’ll be damned if I can remember what it looks like.

Definitely a fair point. The present state is that people either end up on a team that friggin facerolls the other team, match after match, or a team that gets crushed, in which case they quit and try to get in with the first type of group.

And that’s in one of the game’s marquee modes, Walker Assault.

Oh, it certainly holds a candle to the original. 2? Nah. Battlefront 1? Absolutely. What did 1 have that this didn’t, that you could jump in and out of a space ship? That’s about all I can think of.

Hahaha

“Evie Frye”

Oh, Wada’s probably not wrong about Konami. But he’s no saint when it comes to chasing off talent in suspicious circumstances, either (Sakaguchi, Matsuno, Kato, etc).
