I too was once single and childless.

Agreed. There are office buildings where stalagmites have grown, but the desktop computer is still on. I think “They built tech to last forever” is pretty clearly established.

I wondered that as well. Seemed a little odd that the game would call out Incels with the very frist NPC.

Yeah, the original comment did that to me. I was born in 1975.  :p 

I’m still waiting to hear if this will be one of the games they use to try to sell PSVR2.  It seems like it would be a decent fit, assuming they can get it to run smoothly.

Ryan Reynolds was born in 1976. Colin Farrell was born in 1976. Freddie Prinze Jr. was born in 1976.

Because for a long time, Yahtzee was pretty much the only decent creator at Escapist. And even then, his reviews definitely have a bit of a “seen one, seen them all” vibe.

Good ole Escapist. Loved that site; then it became aGamergater haven; then the Gamergater crowd published a list of sites to boycott and on it, I found the main 3-4 sites I go to today (waves at Kotaku). The one and only useful thing Gamergate ever did was that boycott list. ;D

For the Italian Senate, the day hentai graced your meeting was the most important day of your life. But for gamers, it was Tuesday.

Other people who are literally actors by trade:

That’s basically because the studio basically didn’t have any black people involved in creating the character and talked about her cool “hip-hop” walk. So there’s some concern that she’s going to be a poorly written bag of stereotypes. 

The pity here is that my wife, and other kindergarten teachers would probably throw down $100 for a reusable mask with a transparent mouthpiece for teaching pronunciation. Heck, schools might do huge bulk purchases if you made them in elementary school kid sizes.

I am hyped about Horizon Zero Dawn, a friend is hyped about Elden Ring.

Honestly, this is the best possible take for me. I found 2 to be right at my optimal level of silliness. 

It seems like a simple thing:

So, up against a four year old console that everyone bought during Covid to play Animal Crossing and two consoles that you can’t actually buy, the Series S is doing well?

Disney Infinity is one of those games I still mourn. They over-sold the figurines over game design, but the general concept was great and, really, any sandbox where you have Disney/Marvel/Star Wars is going to have so many great options of what you can do. A fighting game would work really well.  

The art design kind of reminds me of Disney Infinity, which is a win because I really liked their take on pretty much every character they did, combining very different properties with a similar art style.

Round 6 reminds me of Series 7, which was a 2001 film about a battle royale reality show where people kill each other to win.
