I just want to take advantage of this safe space to also admit that I thought Papo y Yo was boring. Whiew – glad to get that off my chest (although I did really dig the first hour or so, exploring the favela).

Yessss. The "surreal" scene was creepy indeed, but thinking about that crying baby is the kind of thing that could keep you awake at night.

Meh, I see Nintendo getting slammed plenty – for those uninspired New Super Mario Bros.-games, for the Wii U being "last gen", for not daring to mix up the Zelda-formula, for the failings of Virtual Console…

Good choice! A fairly ordinary if charming romantic comedy with a darn near profound ending (at least she will always have the movies…)

It's not that it is so complicated that I can't follow, but… it just
doesn't make any sense to me that they can bring the machine thingy inside the dream and set it up again and enter another mind. Like, on a gut level I find that element of the plot so weird. The whole time I was watching I felt like I was going "uh,…

I hear that's how you get urinal tract infections.

Wait whaaa — season 2 of the Fall is about the same killer? I just assumed it was only a matter of time before he was caught, like they had to sit down and go through a bunch of old yearbooks or something but they basically had his number.

The thing is deep down I know you're right; the rational thing for me to do would be to by a decent computer, an HDMI cable and an xbox controller instead of a new console. My resistance to PC gaming is based on experiences from 15-20 years ago, when games like Atlantis: The Lost Tales would frequently freeze or crash…

Me too, doctuar, me too. I know I can get it on Steam, but – to tie in to the subject of the article – platformers are meant to be played on consoles dammit.

A full blown HD version of FFXII would really highlight what a step backwards the PS3/360 generation was (not that I'm so conspiratorially minded as to think that's why they're not doing it – it would just be a sad side effect).

Yes, I can't imagine the game is that hated. It got that DS sequel and everything.

It seems like a no-brainer… unless FFX HD sold poorly? (can't be arsed to look it up). It did, however, take them several years to make it.

Some of us live in, you know, Singapore and the likes.

The weird multiplayer option of Final Fantasy IX

oops, sorry.

By the way, no Yvette Nicole Brown newswire? Boo!

It's an odd story, if I understand it correctly. "When I was I kid we owned one cartoon on tape, but I never bothered to watch it. Because Prince of Thieves won out every time."

Wait whaaat – Tasha is writing for the AV Club again? I saw her name somewhere recently but I know they said they had some old inventories lying around so I figured that was it.

It's coming October 1!

I like season 6 overall and I don't really mind April as a character, I
just haaate the way she's used as a tool for generating contrived intrigues.
