It’s like when anime characters blush and hatched lines appear. We’re not supposed to believe there are literally backslashes all over their face.

They’re anime hatching. I don’t know why anyone would think they’re scars or a mustache.

I don’t know what it is, but Kmarts always seem to be messy and devoid of employees, too.

...How does one perform CPR on a tortoise? Breathing into the mouth seems pretty straight forward. It’s the chest compressions I can’t imagine.

It’s easy for the Sonic Twitter account to dog on Nintendo — he’s a community person with (apparently) a lot of freedom. He also made fun of Mighty Number 9 for not being very good, which is funny, but terribly ironic coming from Sonic the Hedgehog.

Nintendo has almost always micromanaged their appaearance to be as…

Do horses feel they must subjugate Yoshis or do Yoshis feel they are subjugated to other creatures? That is the eternal question.

I remember buying in on Strike Vector through Steam early on and feeling like it needed some polish.

I’m not surprised. Finishing the final mission would take a lot of work without a lot of gain. I don’t even know if they can finish it. Kojima Studios is gone, it’s hard to pick up and finish a project when you’ve beheaded and dissipated the dev team.

I hope this means we’ll finally get to play Roy.

For what it's worth, Federation Force IS pretty damn fun,even if it's not a main Metroid.

What I mean is, everything you can do with the analog controls in Splatoon you can do with the motion controls. I always felt like the motion controls were easier to get fine aiming with, but you could still do it with either.

I disagree, I think if it hadn’t been mandatory the game wouldn’t have been designed around the added maneuvers the new controls offer. The controls are so alien you really have to teach yourself how to use them. No one would go through that process if they were optional and had no added benefit.

...I actually liked Star Fox Zero’s controls, but it had such a steep learning curve it made them hard to get past for most players. Once I wrapped my head around the controls, I actually found them really interesting. They let you do things that wouldn’t otherwise be possible.

First I break my own heart while making them.

Thanks for the shout out! From the guy makes Nerd Rage, I really appreciate it.

I’ve been saying this since the beginning. Lots of hate over it not being a completely different game.

For what it’s worth, when I saw it my theater was a ghost town (no pun intended.)

FYI, they didn’t film in New York, with the exception of maybe the firehouse? I’ve heard complaints from actual New Yorkers, anyway, that it was obviously not filmed there.

The work cut was 3-4 hours. Which is a standard procedure with film. Somewhere there’s a 3-4 hour cut of Planes, Trains and Automobiles.

That's not parody. Using copyrighted material isn't instantly parody - it has to have some sort of message about the work it's derived from. This was a remake and was advertised as such.
