Ah yes. The classic Cascading Failure. A thing that goes catastrophically wrong, causally linked to an endless chain of other Things That Go Catastrophically Wrong that all set off Even More Things That Go Catastrophically Wrong. Like a circular row of dominos, except each domino is an open oil drum filled with…

Yeah, that works

If a video game is just an implementation of an existing party game, is the movie based on the video game? In any event, I’ve been excited for this since the first trailer and think I’ll try and watch it this weekend. 

I wasn’t really sure what was happening in that trailer, but damned if that sped-up classic G title theme didn’t keep me watching...Hope you get your Biollante (in the Rose form, if you’re a person of distinction)

This is the perfect example of Art Direction trampling a thousand times “Realistic Graphics” it looks ugly as all hell yeah its nice for some close up textures shot but actually try playing with that, you’ll want to gauge your eyes out

Hey now, that’s not fair.

In particular, a lot of people are mourning the loss of a fully-developed Dante being added to Smash Bros Ultimate.

Hey, Kotaku. I’ve been in the video game industry for 12 years and have been following your blog as my favorite video game news source since, I believe, before that. I love what you do and think your voice is very important. You advocate for progressive ideals, call out things that others won’t, and generally say what…

My personal defense of the Mii Fighters is wow, this game has 80 fighters and still managed to cram in 50 skins for all these other popular characters to at least give their fans some content? That’s ming boggling!

I’d beg anyone to do better . Smash Ultimate is already the largest roster, and arguably accomplishment, in all of fighting games. I get that it sucks when you see so many characters added in, but not the on you’re fighting for, but it’s not possible to add everything.  Just enjoy what’s there.

Activision lawyers were later seen in the court’s parking lot, doing celebratory spinaroonies.

Separating oceans has always felt weirder to me than even the borders of countries. It’s like the imaginary line in the back seat to keep the kids from fighting. What are the criteria? Can you commit a crime in one ocean and flee to another to escape capture? Are there bouys with signs letting you know when you’re…

they will ABSOLUTELY eat my fucking face the moment I drop dead. 

Your three cats are probably hoping you do. I’m under no illusion that my cat wouldn’t make a few meals of me were I to die alone, but under its watch.

Oh man, you didn’t check in to see how this insane stretch of a nothing-burger was getting roasted over at The Root? Cause it’s getting no traction there, and it feels like their readership should know.

So she entered a pageant and/or attended some weird debutante event. Is there any indication that she was aware it had a racist history? It may be hard for some on here to believe, but googling the damn thing wasn’t an option in 1999.

Look, if we start doing “Famous person took part in institution that turned out to be hella racist” takes we’re going to be here forever because, spoiler alert, most white institutions in America are hella racist.
