People pay more attention to the bad things happening to them than the good things when it comes to luck. If good happens, they believe their skill led them to deserve it, and when bad it wasn’t their fault. Confirmation bias kicks in to play once we start viewing it as unfair or intentional that something bad starts… Read more

Everything about The Woodlands feels like a stuck up corporate campus turned into a town. The people who move there all seem like people who think they’re living a more luxurious life than they are and can’t stand the unwashed masses that might not fit in. I hate how these spots are popping up in every major city now… Read more

I see that Frisco sign. trying to figure out where this was taken haha

Ruiner is my first thought. It takes the combat of Hotline Miami and fleshes it out. It might not be as elegant, but it’s a much more deep with time slowing mechanics, a wide variety of weapons and an effective dash mechanic keeping the pace extremely fast. The narrative is very cool, lots of cyberpunk grittiness with… Read more

You must not follow modern hip hop at all

The game is incredible and deserves the nominations though. The journalists that vote on this probably had copies weeks if not a month or two in advance anyway.

“Wacky Couch Co-op” is a very popular game pitch these days, i’m not super surprised

Later boss fights require more thought than stand and shoot. Borderlands was way ahead of the curve on raid boss design in shooters, and it doesnt get enough credit for that.

This article is assuming most borderlands fans wanted something other than more borderlands

This is what got me into shoegaze. I still need to check out the new album they put out

god I love deep ellum. It’s too bad it’s starting to gentrify and feel kinda corporate. Some of the new music venues that have been stealing a lot of the bigger bands that roll through don’t have the same vibe as Trees, Three Links or Club Dada.

Thanks for using the word "petulance" because that is exactly what it is.

They should just reboot the series and build it from the ground up. Do something different this time. Make it super wacky but bring it back to just a gang on the streets.

The system isnt working as intended. The ground should prevent players from tunneling through, and placeable objects shouldnt be implemented in such a way that it breaks the expected physics. Read more

Well I sure hope youre ok with companies from a country that detains children in cages at the border and regularly gets involved in foreign conflicts that they have nothing to do with. Fuck off with that moral high ground, America does awful shit too.

Get used to using airbrakes for your turns in Wipeout. Beyond the slowest mode, thats essential to make a lot of the turns effectively. A lot of it comes down to memorization of the tracks and finding a vehicle that handles how you like once you master the airbrakes. Read more

Given the price, it’s kind of ridiculous that the build quality is this poor on these controllers. However I find it kind of silly that people are complaining that Nintendo charges $4 in shipping to fix them. If they charged for the repair on top of shipping, that would be bad but a free repair is about all they could… Read more

I want it new and fresh, but exactly how I remember

Finishing up Persona 5 hopefully. Been playing this since March and while I love the game, I wanna be done with it so I can try other things again

The fact that they have real world value makes trading card packs more like gambling, which I would consider a negative against trading cards in some respects.
