I’d say there’s never been a console that made itself so irrelevant so fast, but that would imply the console ever had any relevance to begin with.

“I was terrified at that moment and my terror is just exponentially greater since then.”

It could also be taken as a tacit admission that their usual fare is barely edible to anyone over the age of 12.

Superior, yes, but Golden Axe is still Golden Axe, whether it’s a console or arcade version. Walk right, swing axe. I love it, but I don’t need to more ports of it, in any version. And when seven of the ten announced titles thus far have had console ports, this doesn’t feel like a celebration of the arcade to me.

And seven of them have home console ports. They may not be arcade perfect, but they’re, for the most part, the same game. It just reeks of filler to me.

Yes, and half of them at least are from the Genesis era, so it’s just a different shade of the same color. Golden Axe, Fantasy Zone, Alien Storm, Altered Beast ... we’ve seen all of these over and over. Maybe not these EXACT versions, but versions that are close enough that it feels like the same thing.

THIS SO MUCH. I loved my Sega Genesis, but FUCK, man, I don’t need a 33rd re-release of those games. The Saturn, the Dreamcast -- hell, the Sega CD, the 32X, the Master System -- have been completely forgotten, and they are GOLD MINES, especially with the rare and super-expensive games on those systems like Panzer

I just can’t help but laugh at the tonal dissonance of her pointing a gun with a hand on her hip and a facial expression that says “Jerry, did you take a piece of the pie I made for the bake sale?!?”.

This is Capcom. The company that released seven variants and updates to Street Fighter II, a movie-tie in version, AND two games in the Alpha series before they could get to Street Fighter III. Counting isn’t their strongest suit.

If by that, you mean “AMC decided ignoring the victim was easier than finding a new host for their let’s-talk-about-the-show-we-just-watched show”, then yes, he was exonerated.

You magnificent son of a bitch.

Every time I see a story like this, I think “how in the hell did Quizno’s burn out when competing with a company as stupid as this?”.

I guess we’re just coming from two different worlds here.

This is two bald men fighting over a comb.

I don’t think either of those change the discussion. A movie is still a movie, even when it’s an ensemble cast. There may be multiple storylines for the different people, as in Love, Actually, Short Cuts or Crash, but each individual or pairing is still on a storyline track. You don’t get to see these characters in

I have one son on a PS4 and he’s able to play, and one son on a Switch, and he’s locked out. Good times.

I was all set to get excited about the single player campaign, and then I saw it’s being developed by the Battlefront II people. The team who made a friggin’ 5 hour “campaign”. Not getting my hopes up now.

When his comedies crest the two-hour mark, they commit the monstrous sin of self-indulgence. Apatow once responded memorably to this criticism by complaining that audiences think nothing of an extended Netflix binge, but somehow chafe when asked to sit for 15 or 20 minutes longer than expected for a feature film. I’m

If anything, I’d say Ruby Tuesday was more known for the bottomless salad bar and those delicious pumpernickel croutons.

With the wife and kids camping, I went nuts and indulged on a lot of cheesy horror movies. The entire Phantasm series (including my first watch of Phantasm: Ravager), and first viewings of Sweet Sixteen and Mortuary.
