I ‘member! But I also ‘member that Trey and Stone made their fortunes insulting everyone. If they aren’t insulting everyone, then they aren’t doing their jerbs.

That’s the difference between “graphics” and “art style”, which so many people fail to understand. Over and over, devs make the mistake of thinking more polygons and higher resolution textures can make up for crummy art direction and an ugly aesthetic.

This is your weekly reminder that “Dr” Phil is not a real doctor but demands to be referred to as one.

I don’t give a shit if he’s right or wrong about lateness. “Dr.” Phil is a shitbag who revels in humiliating others for entertainment. He’s a toxic lump of southern-fried garbage and no one should ever have to hear another word from him again. Anyone mentioning his name in public without dragging him like a legless…

Oh, man. I still vividly remember being at the game section at Target and hearing the unforgettable sound of X-wing and TIE laser blasts around the corner. Surprise! A kiosk with a demo of the first RL level with the trench run. I came back 3 times to replay it in about an hour.

I was the same. I grabbed a Sony Wega CRT and played Rogue Squadron on GCN and thought, “they will never get things to look better than this.”

Tie Fighter and X-Wing are good flight sims, but those games do not feel like the pulpy sci-fi space combat from the Star Wars movies.

Can you guys kill this slideshow garbage? Look at how stupid the “All Slides” panel looks

No surprise this list would be PC biased. I’ll ride or die with Rogue Leader, flight stick be damned. Rogue Leader delivered what every other game on this list couldn’t: making the OT’s most memorable space battles come to life. Barreling down the Death Star trench, dodging asteroids and TIEs in a desperate escape in…

wait, what about the other Battlefronts?

Zack, I cannot believe you had this whole list without featuring the best Star Wars piloting game.....

When I saw the first scene on GameCube for Rogue leader I thought there was no possible way graphics could get better. Still one of my favorite games to date.

Yeah it actually doesn’t sound like that, you fucking baby.

I didn’t even watch the episode and I can tell you based on the comments that you apparently didn’t read, it’s nothing like that.

Pangolin, “random”?? You do know it was actually thought to be a pangolin rather than a bat, right? They didn’t just make that up; it wasn’t random at all. 

Chin diaper just entered into my daily lexicon and will be used FREQUENTLY. 

No, the neutering of Democrats as a whole started when Carter lost to Reagan. It’s just that the West Wing has influenced a lot of how the moderate left thinks in the US. That you can advocate for change, but not all at once and the right will always water it down and we’ll bend over backwards to give them what they…

Your regular reminder that a majority of boomers started voting republican back in 1980 and never looked back.

If you’re interested, check out the podcast The West Wing Thing. It’s an episode-by-episode breakdown about how the show’s centrist politics have negatively influenced the Democratic Party through its advocacy of incremental change.

Note that Jerry Rubin later became a multimillionaire investment banker (before dying early at 58 in 1994). The literal co-founder of the Yippies became a Yuppy. It’s the sort of detail that would seem over-the-top in a fictional character (yeah, we get it — the Boomers sold out, even if Rubin might actually have been…
