There’s more to a successful and fun fighting game than netcode, but bad netcode can ruin a great fighting game, and good netcode can make the worst fighters playable.

Now playing

Warwick’s hunting noise is the sound at the end of the teaser. So........ we know what’s coming.

I went into it blind this morning and just finished watching it all and just DAMN

I knew some of the characters from my ex playing the game, and general pop cultural osmosis but every single twist and stuff was just amazing. I’m so glad I watched it

these are video games, you play them. you have not experienced anything until you do.

...except the Treehouse of Horror episodes are substantially more violent and disturbing than normal episodes, as reflected in their usually having a higher MPAA age rating, rather than a PG rating.

Even if we ignore the two corporations’ decades-long rivalry, this isn’t just something they can up and do. The two games are made by two completely different developers, and are probably coded very differently. You can’t simply merge them. The challenges range from political (whose game gets to host all the

I think it just re-emphasizes the resources and priorities behind it. Clearly, Nick’s game was a no-budget “make something like that popular thing with the most return-on-investment we can get” that the devs poured a lot of passion to work around their limitations, while WB clearly sees bigger things in this and,

It’s not a family friendly sports film without a literal street gang full of literal rapists and torturers cheering on the hero!

I wouldn’t be surprised if Zach Callison had just aged out of it - this is clearly the OG Steven Universe compared to the older (and deeper-voiced) version later in the series and in Steven Universe Future. Maybe the studio just wanted someone closer to the voice he had when he started the show, which sucks for him

Hey, he was in Space Jam 2, so why not?

I’m can’t decide what I’m more surprised by: That they got Maisie Williams for Arya Stark or that they didn’t get Zach Callison for Steven Universe.

I saw a tweet that says Maisie Williams is actually doing Arya’s voice in the game. I haven’t bothered to confirm it but it came from Nibel, so...

Except that Nick screwed up and didn’t point voice overs in.   This WB game is already miles better.  The only thing I don’t like is Shaggy, but that’s a personal preference, and there are more than enough awesome characters in that list already.  

Getting Kevin Conroy as Batman and Matthew Lillard as Shaggy (plus I assume most of the other charcters have their original VOs, except for Arya Stark I’m sure) really emphasizes how stupid it was for Nickelodeon to not get ANY voices for their game. Absolutely absurd.

You aren’t giving FFXIV as much credit as it deserves.

Between this, Dickinson, and Hawkeye, I think Hailee Steinfeld is trying to take over the streaming world on every service, and I'm Ok with that

Pretty sure he is referring to Game of Thrones. 

Not only all that, they nail all the little details. They make the world feel lived in, like there’s history there. And they do it so consistently, even the things that aren’t super important. Between episodes, between arcs, they pay attention to all those little things which is just amazing honestly.

I don’t know. Can’t remember any shows like that at all
