It’s funny, even after all these years on the raggedy edge, all the jokes about Vice shutting them down, it’s still surreal to see this happen. The staff at Waypoint, both past, present, and freelancers were all the cream of the games writing/podcasting/discourse crop.

The funny thing is that there is a platform holder doing that currently and keeps getting shit on for having “no games”. I personally am finding Microsoft’s AA experiments like Pentiment, Hi-Fi Rush, Grounded, and Gears Tactics to be far more interesting than Sony pumping out a 4K Ratchet sequel, but I find myself…

D4 just took over my weekend in a way that I wasn’t expecting. It’s not doing anything new, really, with the Diablo formula. But it looks real good and has that perfect dopamine drip. I am all the way in at this point. Give me that head-empty demon-killing goodness.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, a Playground Games Diddy Kong open world racer with crossplay on Xbox and Switch would be incredible.

Ok, tell me how Rowling’s books aren’t casting trans people as predators. Because the Wikipedia summary is pretty clear cut that’s what happens:

Echoing what everyone said, but my NG+ playthrough was under 20 hours, and that was going through it leisurely and beating most of the endgame and optional bosses (skipped most of the random dungeons, evergaols, etc). Knowledge compresses space!

That’s a lie. The US was the first country to grant de facto recognition, and subsequently granted de jure recognition once a a democratic election was held and certified. The Soviets, not caring about democracy, granted de jure ahead of the election. Get fucked fascist.

Ah yes, let’s instead support the friend-of-Jewish-people, Russia! Y’know, the place where people in my family had fled due to pogroms.

I will say, the one change that didn’t sit as right with me is Ellie not attempting to run away after the “you ain’t my daughter scene”. I felt that it was effective in the game to have Joel lose Ellie briefly, which then galvanizes him to fully place himself as her guardian. In the show the about-face in Joel’s…

Awwww, baby wants their links? Ok, here you go:

Oh please, there plenty of vitriol and condemnation for conservative and centrist politicians for the anti-trans rhetoric and policies. One can walk and chew bubblegum at the same time, and it is very easy to call out JK Rowling along with the ghouls in government. This isn’t an either/or, and your “but you…

C’mon, you haven’t looked at shit if you think she hasn’t “done anything”. Her Wikipedia clearly shows how her political advocacy leading to politicians blocking legislation that protects and supports trans people.

Stephanie Sterling breaks down exactly why “virulent transphobe” isn’t at all an exaggeration with Rowling:

Great review! I ended up dragging out my Wii from the back of the closet and putting in the OG Metroid Prime, and wow does that game still look good with progressive scan turned on. An absolute classic. I’m curious though, in the original game you can connect up your Game Boy Advance to unlock the Fusion suit in…

I love how people say shit like this and I just can’t imagine how it would work in real life:

The PS5 warns you when you first install a lower speed NVME, but so far all Sony first party games I have tried work with it (R&C Rift Apart, Demon’s Souls, Returnal). Given that cross-platform titles have to account for lower NVME speeds on PC and Xbox, I highly doubt it will be much of a problem this gen, and even…

So wait, you’re telling me that despite her advocacy getting actual politicians to make trans people’s lives harder, the fact that she hasn’t said the specific words “I hate trans people” she gets a pass? Is that really the hill you want to die on?

Honestly, at this point I just recommend purchasing the expanded storage and ending the constant juggling. It cost me $150 CAD last year for a 1TB NVME and heat sink, and I imagine in the US that price is a lot cheaper. The install is super easy, and once you do it substantially improves your PS5 experience. Also,…
