I think it’s pretty obvious that the name was the issue. Poo is the name of a Nintendo character, yes, but “Pile of Poo” is clearly suggesting something else. If he has an offline copy of the level, would it really take more than a half hour to rebuild it?

I thought the Jungle Book movie came out pretty well. What made that movie work and not any of the other live action remakes?

“Exploration platformer” works just fine.

You know you’re the bad guys when you don’t let the media report on your conferences.

I had to roll my eyes at the corporate whores who cheered and applauded when Ubisoft announced their monthly paid service.

I haven’t played Cadence of Hyrule yet, but I’ve read that when you die in the overworld, you can restart at a checkpoint, and you can eventually fast travel between them. Dungeons are fully randomized each time you enter them, but when you die you keep any non-breakable equipment you find. You can use diamonds to buy…

So my understanding is that Cadence of Hyrule drops a lot of the rogue-like frustrations of Crypt of the Necrodancer? If so, then thank God.

There’s something about Twitch culture that makes the whole situation so off-putting...

If modern gaming can handle Batman’s cape, it can handle Zelda’s hair.

I don’t know why so many fans seem down on this remake, it looks like a ton of fun. The fact of the matter is that the old turn-based JRPG format was broken game design, and I’m glad that Square Enix is improving on that formula while keeping the spirit of FF7.

*cries in Rayman*

Has it been confirmed whether the Stadia controller is required, or would any Bluetooth controller work?

Yeah, I was really down on Sword and Shield after the initial reveal, but the Wild Area looks pretty sweet.

Remember when you just plunked down a set amount of cash, and you got a cartridge or CD that had the entire game on it? Those were good times.

So the person who uploaded this level either cheated, ran the level hundreds of thousands of times, or got extremely lucky? I guess they could have automated the runs with a drinking bird on the A button.

Can they use an extra month to get rid of the scene where Sonic says meow and then James Marsden starts screaming and then Sonic starts screaming and then everybody’s screaming?

There is no situation in which randomized microtransactions are ethical. Let us pay $10 for the entire game or let us pay $1 for a specific character. None of this pipe pulling bullshit.

It looks like from the menu system that Nintendo is leaving open the possibility of more game modes in the future, either at release or as DLC. Here’s hoping for an SMB2 theme!

Clickhole has been having a field day with this: https://www.clickhole.com/tag/jk-rowling

Exactly. The citizenship question on the census is shitty for many reasons, but this headline is such clickbait. I’ve suffered from a lot of anxiety since Trump was elected, and one thing that really helped was realizing that a lot of people have a financial interest in keeping me angry. I still like Lifehacker for…
