I’m impressed nobody has mentioned The Hurt Locker. That film is one of the most overrated films I’ve ever seen, and I’ve always considered it’s winning best picture to be a huge military propaganda stunt.

Stephanie Hsu’s character is probably one of the coolest villains I’ve ever seen in any media ever.

I preferred the Skyward Sword headline image... I interpreted it as a sort of elaborate sarcastic joke that tried to convey the writer’s tiredness with BotW glitch news.

For what it’s worth, I think that he’s absolutely right about comics being an essential part of American fiction (and American culture too), and honestly there’re a lot of people who could rant all day about how, throughout American history, different comics have explored different perceptions of fundamental American…

Something strange is going on here. Musk is a PoS, but he is by no means a complete idiot or a completely incompetent businessman. I hate having to be a conspiracist, but isn’t this just way to chaotic even for Musk? Is it really too far fetched to think that he’s doing all of this on purpose and that he’s benefiting…

I think the people that still defend this thing is people that really have difficulties putting things into perspective. Disorganization and mismanagement are no acceptable excuses for 10 years without releasing anything worthwhile. With 500m you could hire the best people in the world to take care of your…

Could this be a sign that maybe Nintendo is actually not fully aware of the magnitude of its fan base? I think that would explain a lot of things.

To be fair, while no gaming community is except from controversy and bad moments, the ones that relate to influencers and twitch stars are probably the most toxic and shallow. I mean FGC and speedrun communities do not generally question LGBTQ+ culture and even encourage diversity and openness about these things, so…

Yeah. Definitely Video Games.

For the record, I’m by all accounts an irredeemable Nintendo fan boy. I think they are the only big game company that has stuck to the principle that video games and their entertainment value are worthy in themselves and have thus never fully compromised quality over quantity and monetary game. But, despite all this,…

Florence Pugh is the best and she’s yet to make a bad film. Or at least a film in which she doesn’t steal the show

I don’t know if this is just my experience with Netflix or if it happens to more people, but I recently subscribed to Netflix and almost immediately canceled my subscription, because it said that, for the price I paid, I would get 1080p quality streaming, and I never got that even once in the week I used the app. 

Tucker Carlson is both a blessing and a curse. Well, he’s actually mostly just a curse, but I needed some lighthearted amusement for this grim day, and Carlson rarely disappoints.

I feel Eric Burton is missing here. I saw Black Pumas a few weeks ago and I was impressed at his devotion to the fans. It was truly a great show.

Wait, so you’re telling me that Abandoned got abandoned...?

This. Grim Dawn is rather unremarkable in terms of the originality of its story/themes/art style/game play. But it excels in the execution of it’s game play in ways other hack’n’slash failed to do at the time. When I played it back then, it really felt like these guys understood the direction hack’n’slash games had to…

Navi is a bit annoying, true, but the way they contextualized the tutorials/hints/lock-on system into a side-kick that dynamically followed you around was pretty amazing and quite ahead of its time in my opinion.

OK, so I know this sucks pretty bad, but I’m gonna be emphatic about this once again: PLAY INDIE GAMES! There are HUNDREDS of indie games out there made by honest people that honestly want to just make a living doing something they love while delivering the best possible experience to everyone. Not only there are a…

The switch is a pretty lackluster console performance-wise, but the combination of:

That’s a real shame. For me BS1 and BSI are two of the best games ever made, and I always thought Levine had a good grip not only on what makes games good, but also on how they should be developed and, by extension, what a good and healthy development environment should be like. I guess I was blatantly wrong, which…
