I tried playing the PC port and it felt very unwieldy.

Interesting. Hopefully someone can figure out if they finally put that skeletal dino boss that they made a figure of but wasn’t in the first game.

Yeah, none of the home ports of Primal Rage were very good. Apparently the original arcade version of Primal Rage was also a nightmare to emulate because of some copy protection thing.

Sounds like someone’s been paying attention to how popular Smite’s Arcade Pit has been getting on Twitch.

They’re not that different honestly.

“Can You Dig It?” is so good.

Another reason that Iron Man 3 is one of my favorite Marvel movies. Brian Tyler’s score is very memorable, especially the main theme.

Metal Gear Rising is my pick. It greatly elevates the game (I love the boss themes being from their perspective) but I had listened to the soundtrack hundreds of times before I had even played the game.

That first song reminds me a lot of Firewind’s “Ready to Strike”, which is a very good thing.

It looks like several “death flower” head monsters from a couple other things. It even reminded me of one on Adventure Time. The creators said they were inspired by Alien for design but if they’re pulling from that universe, it reminds me more of the Deacon from the end of Prometheus.

Exactly. Whatever happened to just agreeing to disagree? If I’m not interested in something or I don’t like something, I don’t put stake in whether or not it’s a hit or people like it or if they’re talking about it (which seriously, it’s been blowing up all over the place, there was an article on almost every site I…

The biggest film reference for Silent Hill’s Other World (including straight from interviews the creators of the games) is Jacob’s Ladder.

To be fair, my problems with the game’s story don’t begin or end with the twist. The story and characters have a lot of problems. It doesn’t matter as much anyway because outside of Metal Gear Rising, it’s the Metal Gear that is the most fun to play.

The MGSV was kind of a “no, that can’t be it, can it?” Watching the trailers and gameplay demonstrations and all that, it was hard to not think that was going to be the twist. Then upon starting the game and being in that first sequence, most people immediately said “it’s fucking true, isn’t it?” That was more about…

They already did scanned Gojira. It looks worse than the Criterion Blu-ray because whoever Toho has working for them isn’t that adept at it. The report was only about Gojira being scanned and they never confirmed if they were doing any others. It’s unlikely, since they just finished their (pretty bad) HD remasters a…

I’d like to see someone other than Toho do 4K Godzilla restorations. Their HD remasters of any of the Godzilla films released before the 2000's are pretty poor and the 4K restoration they did of Gojira isn’t near as good as Criterion’s restoration.

Don’t worry, if the Criterion Blu-ray of Gojira is anything to go by, it still beats out Toho’s 4K restorations.

I wouldn’t get my hopes up too much. Toho did a 4K restoration of Gojira and while the individual frames they previewed looked nice, it still was miles behind the Criterion restoration. (Toho themselves seem to have a lot of problems with their restorations and HD releases of anything prior to the 2000's.)

This was the only game I was looking forward to this year. Unfortunately, after watching ARavingLoon’s stream, I’ll be waiting until I hear the performance issues have been fixed. The gameplay looks amazing, but I can’t take the framerate looking worse than Enemy Within on an old laptop.

Wait... The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth was on sale for $6.66 for pre-order and the first day of release. So, what the fuck?
