This is when you demand to see a manager.

I have a pretty hard line on sending things back - if it comes out and it’s *technically* wrong, like my chicken is raw, or you cooked my steak into shoe leather, or it’s just... not what I ordered, I’ma send it back.

That’s fair, if harsh, haha. I’ve only seen her in GoT (and of the show’s faults, Sansa is NOT one of them - she’s so vastly improved over the whiney princess of the books that I’m willing to overlook a lot) and the Xmen stuff and they’re just.. not good in general.

I respect the fact she can admit that. She seems pretty reasonably grounded.

I’m naturally a righty but since basically every other game puts the joystick left hand buttons right hand, it always felt odd to not do so for Pac. 

Not gonna lie, you had me in the first half. Well played. 

It’s all about the dollars. Cooper is a damn good looking dude (and I say this as a straight man - but I’m comfortable enough with myself I can admit when a man is attractive), Hollywood still clings to that old fashion bottom line notion that an openly gay IRL lead won’t bring in the lady folks to a fiction movie.

So much of my childhood was created there.

Reggie was the rare “suit” that seemed to actually enjoy the business of gaming, not just focused on the *business* (looking at you Activision, EA).

I absolutely LOVE Nigiri Sushi. Up there with my favorite things to eat. I don’t try to pretend I’m some sort of food expert or foodie or anything so feel free to roll your eyes if this sounds pretentious, but I really like the “purity” of it for lack of a better word. Just fish, vinegar, rice and a bit of soy and/or w…

Perhaps Zio was corrupted by the hope of better entertainment options :D

I’ve been replaying the Phantasy Star series myself as of late - I’m currently halfway thru a save-state enabled (so I don’t have to redo Rhys/Ayn/Nial repeatedly) all timelines run, and while I still absolutely love the games, something’s occured to me about the golden age of JRPGs.

I would commit unspeakable atrocities to get remakes of the original Phantasy Star games in VC’s Canvas Engine.

It’s well worth playing the series because there’s a couple big payoffs to longtime fans that I have to be vague about for spoiler reasons, but there’s one point that IV got a “oh. oh no, holy shit, no.” reaction from me on when i realized where they were going with it and without having grown up on the franchise that…

Good read!
Phantasy Star is my all time favorite series, and while I love IV beyond words (Phantasy Star IV quite literally saved my life) and felt it has a wonderful satisfying ending to the original series, I do wish they had made more games in that style as opposed to what it became afterwards.

Vague for OP’s spoiler reasons:

This game is responsible for me almost failing gym one year in high school because I kept blowing off getting changed to sit on the bleachers and play LA. No regrets. Can’t wait to revisit it.

The IRS caught Al Capone. Screw reporting your crimes, just make sure uncle Sam gets his share and you’ll be fine.
