One of the world’s best Smash players used to go by the handle “Doctor Pee Pee.” He has thankfully changed it to the more subtle P.P.M.D.

Now playing

On the opposite end of the genre spectrum, here’s a playlist of native folk and country music from the 60s through 80s. This compilation is absolutely phenomenal, I definitely recommend it if you have a record player.

Excellent work with this interview, Mr. Nolan. And I think I know what I will be reading next =)

First sentence of the second paragraph:

The review was excellent, but this pithy description might have been the highlight. Bravo, Heather.

Jimmy Kimmel deserves a lot of praise. And the democratic party deserves just as much ridicule for not being able to put out as compelling and compassionate resistance against this as the guy who got his big break on a show best known for girls in bikinis jumping on trampolines.

Can we have the UI designers for modern JRPGs just be the UI designers for everything?

I played the game for the first time last year, and enjoyed it. But I really disliked how the cards were random drops from enemies. I got unlucky and went most of the game with I think 3 or 4 cards total, despite being fairly meticulous about killing enemies as I came across them. Eventually the game got hard enough

Ah, okay, that’s not something I knew about. Thanks for clarifying.

As far as I know, voice actors didn’t receive residuals at all prior to this. Maybe big name voice actors like Nolan North negotiated them individually, but companies were not required to pay union actors residuals as a rule of commissioning them.

IIRC, on action button dot net you had Another World as the Greatest Game Of All Time, and Cave Story as #2. So why are they not respectively the Games of the 90s and 00s?

Yeah, if we’re assuming level 5 autonomy, then why not just have it in your car, and it zips off to find a charging station after dropping you off wherever? And even THAT is assuming that car ownership in general still makes sense in a world with level 5 autonomy.

Oh, I’ve done that. Raw horse, even. I don’t get why people get so offended by it, horses are pretty dumb animals! You should feel worse about eating pig.

Give it to Greece. If they could re-use facilities, and utilize them as tourist attractions and as a mecca for athletic training in the off years, it’d actually provide a pretty significant economic boon for a country that needs it. But that wouldn’t line the pockets of the IOC members with hundreds of millions in

“It was childish and idiotic and I would’ve kept doing it forever if I hadn’t got caught.”

Yeah and then the Browns shitcanned him because he rightly pointed out during a pre-season game that some of the Rams’ players were terrible, and Jeff Fisher threw a fit over it. To hell with Jeff Fisher, and to hell with the spineless idiots that run the Browns.

The day GameFAQs shuts down or pivots to video is the day I may stop playing video games.

I’m in the lowly greys here on AV Club (welcome aboard, guys), but if anyone is interested in a seriously excellent film about moody people hitting a ball back and forth with a racket (okay, fine, paddle) then I would suggest 2002's Ping Pong.
