I’m getting so tired of bashing The Matrix sequels in every article that’s Matrix-related.

i dont need to throw my money at nintendo. i have a gamecube should my need to scratch the nintendo itch arise. old consoles arent super expensive usually. i dont really care for nintendos attitude towards the market. im sure the new games are great. theyve always made great games but hardware exclusivity is a…

Are you sure these aren’t the new alternate female crewman uniforms from Star Trek: Discovery?

Sure, dude. It’s not like VR is a technology that dozens of companies have poured time and money into perfecting since the 90's. Palmer Luckey is the only person who ever thought of it.

i spent $100 making an emulator machine from raspberry pi 3 that plays games from numerous systems that has two SNES style controllers (the ones with way more buttons than the NES ones).

I’m really looking forward to these.

“Hehehe hahaha WE’RE SO ZANY and our show hehehahah is SO ZANY we’re just a couple of regular WACKY GUYS hehehaha April 4th FOUR OH FOUR...GET IT?!”

Regretfully I never finished this game, but man, the fan translated rom from back when was one of my favorite gaming experiences. It’s a great game and shame that it never got an official release in the west.

I think Disney spent a little more than half a million dollars to build Pandora.

Everytime I watch this boat scene where Batou and Kusanagi have a long and “deep” conversation, I can’t keep a straight face.

I love GitS, but let’s be honest here. The movie and the tv serieses feature long stretches where people do nothing but give hackneyed dialog over topics that while perhaps interesting 20 or 30 years ago, are so well-troddened to the point of cliched now.

The only thing more hackneyed and cliched in anime now is “war…

River Phoenix no doubt!

The echo chamber of nerds convinced themselves it’s a legitimately great movie, and not merely a good one based on a beloved comic character. Oh and it made a bunch of money so that means it’s good too, or something.

all their movies are backed by the government. pretty much all of their movies are steeped in propaganda.

You should have opened with and stuck to an argument about the movie being backed by the government. People got defensive when it seemed like you were saying all russian art is invalid because their government is doing terrible things. If you had started your argument by framing the movie as a propaganda piece by the…

we’ve been preparing for the third world war ever after the US failed to perform its obligations towards Ukraine in regard to protection of its integrity under the Budapest Memorandum, when Russia invaded Crimea — which totally destroyed the entire system of international nuclear security, so no, it was not a…

Not sure the point of going through all of this, if you are going to get that technical then get a Raspberry Pi with an NES-like case and controller and load the RetroPie image on it which requires far less technical gymnastics and effort, and would be the same cost.

Why does this make you so mad? You can be unhappy that piracy exists, but the level of rage flying from your keyboard is completely disproportionate to the impact this has on you. Moreover, many of us own the software in cartridges that we can’t play anymore, so in fact it’s not piracy, perhaps a DMCA violation, but…

I would have thought Kylo Ren, doing the same conflicted shtick he’s been doing in X-Men. He looks more like Harrison Ford than Adam Driver. Too old maybe? He’d have been wasted as Hux, but then so was the guy they ended up with.

In theory these ought to be good, they seem to be trying very hard to follow principles of good art. But instead they seem lifelessly deliberate, and carefully crafted without an understanding of why they should work, so they just feel flat. It’s like they read about art from a book.
