I’m not a fan of Kevin Smith but in this case I agree with him, the show was great and it was a fun update of the 80s original (which I’m old enough to have watched when it was on TV the first time). The irony about this, though, is he is the kind of person who helped forge the obsessive fandom that he’s complaining

Interesting article but missed opportunity for use of the phrase “odd duck” off the top. :-P

Wow! That’s some next level dumbassery. I mean good grief! Posting classified documents to win an argument on a video game forum? I fear for our future.

I totally thought Howzer was going down too. I mean that’d be dark for a kids show but it’d be on theme.

Same director as Bao, just learnt that (which is also set in Toronto which I also just learnt). I’m glad that Pixar is letting the creatives tell their stories from their lived experiences.

It’s directed by a Canadian from Toronto. It’s not just a random insertion of a destination.

I love this is very distinctly Toronto!

Cheating is bad, if people cheat, that’s scummy and bad karma but all this back and forth accusations seems like a really REALLY low stakes and slightly embarrassing soap opera.

Not to mention an Irish immigrant in Titanic. Cameron really used her a lot. I was listening to a podcast where she discussed how she went on to run her own business and left it behind for the most part.

The pedantry and lack of any semblance of understanding of humour by some segments of the gaming population is truly astounding (interestingly it feels the more “old school” and “hard core” you get the worse the issue becomes).

Because they needed something that they could leverage technologies outside a cloud gaming level. The reality is a lot of the world does not have sufficient infrastructure to stream games and a lot of players refuse to give up on physical media.

The XSX fills that gap and people who want a “high end experience” while

You mean like... Starfield? These acquisitions take time and we’re starting to see it come together in the last E3 and will continue to gather momentum.

Well Sony just sounds bitter, I mean implying MS weren’t thoughtful in their acquisitions is just silly. They are as thoughtful as Sony, they just have deeper pockets.

As soon as I saw the title, didn’t even need to make it past the title in the article, but as soon as I saw it I thought “Get these mother lovin’ Vampires of my mother lovin’ plane”.

100% in Ontario (I can’t speak to other provinces) there is a far higher importance placed on preventative care. Basically care making sure people never have to come in for surgery in the first place. It is not always effective but it’s the larger intent. It can be very difficult when there are limited spots for

How Canada deals with remote medical assistance varies province by province, one of the problems with a direct comparison is Canadian healthcare is a federally funded provincial program. The individual provinces control the mandate as appropriate for their provincial situation.

I’m not even going to start to engage you on the numbers of people dying waiting for procedures (especially when compared to numbers in the US of people who die because they can’t even begin to afford said procedures) but I have to call you out on the NHS and salaries to nurses.

Alternate take, they wanted to do something nice and it was ruined in combination with many plot beats getting leaked undermining the work of entire teams and spoiling the development of the story for many players who want to find it naturally but stumble on it in conversations they didn’t expect.

Comment that disingenuously praises the author whilst using this as a pretext to quibble over a minor point.

Exactly, almost like they were trying to point out while there has been an investigation in his team it’s not related to him and he’s not leaving in disgrace but changing position. It’s almost as if Kotaku were doing their job and clarifying the circumstances. (Seriously, I suspect no matter what they wrote you’d have
