Honestly this has just made me nostalgic to want to play Big Red One or Medal of Honor Frontlines. Fond memories of messing around with friends in the multiplayer baseball diamond map in Rising Sun. Good times.

“What’s a fan to do when they discover their favorite YouTuber’s politics?”

Why does nobody ever give any love to the Genesis version? I always thought the Genesis version was way better. The music and art style were spot on and there were a bunch of little Disney references hidden around the levels. The whole thing seemed way more styled than the SNES version. Not that the SNES isn’t a good…

I don’t think there’s a trick to it or anything, it’s just a low / random drop rate. The 7 day streak drops hella items so I can see why that could be perceived as “increasing the odds” so to speak. I’ve manged to get one Dragonscale just from spinning a random pokestop but that’s all so far. Just gotta keep playing…

I work for a “major” retailer / department store (thankfully not in sales.) But they too have similar-ish metrics for their sales/cashier people and I feel like these kind of metrics and programs lose sight of the forest for the trees. I’ve never understood why it matters *how* you sell something... so long as you…

Not to the point of stopping and not overwhelming mad but definitely frustrated at the time wasting aspect. I like to try and 100% the achievements in games if the lists aren’t outrageous and/or require reaching max level in multiplayer or crap like that. The game that first hit my mind when thinking about wasting…

I know this is kind of an opinion piece but there’s two points I would argue. From what I remember of Ninja Gaiden, the difficulty was definitely unforgiving but the controls weren’t the problem. Those felt tight and precise. Metroid on the other hand falls into the unforgivingly difficult camp with way too many…

This would be great for Avengers Alliance.... oh.... wait....

This is basically cheaters confirming that they’re all the whiny, entitled bitches we all assume they are when we encounter them online. No remorse. No sense of shame. “I paid *money* for this! My fun is more important than yours!” Smh.

Came here to make a similar joke. Not disappointed.

I hadn’t even really noticed myself. I’m through about Act 3 and with the exception of maybe a couple shots of the phone in the live action bits, I actually thought they did a good job of not drawing explicit attention to stuff. Maybe I’ve been letting myself get drawn into the story to the point I don’t notice or…

Just started Quantum Break this week, excited to get more into that. Probably a little Destiny in spite of myself too

Do I detect a fellow Lovely here?

I gotta say, whoever has been running the Sonic Twitter account is amazing at winning social media.

If feel like if you’re gonna be pro, you should be able to adapt to the stage. Besides, those were exciting matches that were fun to watch. That kind of stuff is what makes Smash great.

I don’t think it’s even having more or fewer that’s the problem. I wish achievements were more creative. Interesting challenges or ways to sort of twist the gameplay. Not just kill 100/500/1000 of X enemy, collect.... everything, reach highest possible level in Multiplayer.

Ditto that but on the Xbox side. I’m up to about 51 completed games across 360, One, and a couple odd bird Windows games. Personally, I *like* going for completes but I do wish that more games had achievements that were more fun and less grinding/work.

I know for me, and a lot of other people like me, it’s less about watching the video games and more about the personalities. Often times the game itself is a just a vehicle for whatever live commentary / improv different youtubers supply. It seems like that aspect of things is so often overlooked when people look at…

Yeah I can agree to that. I’ve picked up a handful of things I’m glad are on there. Old gameboy games I grew up with that don’t really work anymore that I’m glad to be able to collect digitally. But at this point, I’ve picked up everything I want from what they’re offering but there’s so much more I would buy if it…

I’m on Xbox and I love the program. It definitely helps justify the cost of 12 months of Live. As for the games, I have no real problems with the selection. Sure, some of them I already have (so I just claim a free digital copy), some of them aren’t the kind of games I like or have any interest in playing (some of the…
