I’m for it. I just finished Bayonetta 3, and Viola just did NOT click with me. I could get through most of it fine, but there were two boss fights (same dude too) which took me over a dozen tries (harder than anything in Elden Ring, save for Melania), and I was almost at the point where I felt my investment would be…

I’m enjoying the Bayonetta portion of the game quite a lot, but Viola has not clicked with me yet (just finished chapter 12). Whereas I’m breezing through the main story with Bayonetta, Viola is a huge roadblock, and both Strider fights took me over 40 minute each. I didn’t even come close to the number of retries for…

Kudrow seems like a truly cool, interesting person. She’s funny in real life, and also took on a number of movie roles with a lot of variety and some real challenge. My one wish is that she portray some sort of extinct monster on a pretty good cartoon that has been co-opted by people I don’t want to be associated with.

My launch 360 finally red-ringed *halfway* through Alan Wake’s 2nd DLC chapter (the finale). That was painful.

it was made worse, coz it cost me $100 to fix, and I had just bought a $120 larger HD. If it had died before I bought that HD, it would’ve been better to just buy a new one at the time :-/

WTF is that supposed to mean?

Thanks for the info! I might still watch it (still a lot of games and other shows to get through first). The comic did lean on the nostalgia, and I remember when Stranger Things premiered (a year after the comic started), and I thought “ok, this is never gonna be a show now...” so I was pretty surprised it got picked…

Game translations are rarely good, and I know Power Rings got a lot of people mad (I thought it was ok, but my nerdrage isn’t focused on LotR), but man, The Boys, The Tick, Undone, Invincible, Man in High Castle, AnneDroids, Truth Seekers (RIP)... I think they’ve done more good than bad so far. So I’m cautiously…

Looking forward to playing this, but it’s sandwiched between Plague Tale 2 and God of War: R, so it’ll have to collect dust for a few weeks. Good to see they pulled it off tho.

Have Mercy!

(will travel)

I can’t find the clip trading gems to the merchant, but it’s different than selling the treasures like in the original? Seems a bit weird to add a 2nd currency type...

Roasted.

FWIW, I sent a message to Asobo describing the problem. Not sure if they’ll actually read it, and if they’ll ever do anything but we can hope...

I’m a big detractor of Bloober, yet I keep playing their games, hoping something good comes of it. I liked Layers of Fear, but the others have just been so full of filler, weak puzzles, etc. But they do have style.
However, I am hopeful that because they are working with a proven design (their weakest aspect), they…

Try a few times. Like I said, it took me 25 tries, but I managed to work my way back up. at least there’s not a lot of action prior to that part (but a lot of walking/talking) so it’s not the most difficult chapter to replay :(

Expect the worst, then you’ll never be disappointed. Unless Konami is involved. Then it’ll somehow be worst. Collect and trade NFT weapons with other Silent Hill 2: Part 1 players!

Very good show. Makes me want to take the shrinkwrap off the game and actually play it (after Plague Tale and Bayonetta and God of War and Callisto Protocol and... and...)
 But yeah, not surprisingly there wouldn’t be a sequel series. I’d definitely be up for a new adventure.

I got one in chapter 2 last night where a companion asked me to throw them a stick, and I was like “let’s fuck around a bit” and I decided to carry it over to them. Got killed. Game checkpointed me IN a sea of rats.
in defiance of restarting the whole chapter, I probably died 25 times just edging my way back to the…

SOMA is quite good, basically a walking sim with light puzzle solving, and a couple stealth sequences (that are easy), but great atmosphere, great story. If you’ve wanted to return to Rapture with a different story (which, now that I think about it, is a bit more in line with Bioshock Infinite. heh), check it out.…

As much as I like Hale, and agree she’s almost famous, she’s not really a selling point, especially when Taylor’s performance is so well-loved. I worked on a project that replaced a character with Hale because the original actress was -awful-. But as you can see by the comments here, replacing Taylor is bringing no…

It seems much more complicated. Hale is almost certainly being paid more than $4000. Taylor’s resume, at least on IMDB, ends with Bayonetta 2 and her appearance in Smash, after being a fairly prolific actress prior to that.
Hale is incredibly easy to work with. I’m wondering if Taylor is not. You don’t usually hire…
