I was just about to comment on the same thing! Now, we need a game where that actually is what's happening.

WOMBO COMBO is amazing, although I consider it less iconic for the game itself since it's more a moment thanks to the announcers. It's a 2v1 situation, so them winning is pretty much a foregone conclusion already. It's just how they do it that's amazing.

Yeah, DOTA2 and Heroes of the Storm have been the ones that they've tried to get bigger crowds into by airing it on TV. I think the fact that it was these is because of who can actually pay to get their game on TV (Valve and Blizzard). I wouldn't be surprised if Overwatch pops up at some point in the future. But with…

I remember liking Sunset Overdrive at its reveal, a refreshing, colorful distraction from the normal grey, with the wonderful art design of every explosion actually forming words. But its second E3 feature ( https://youtu.be/dyz9MvPXWI… ) left me a little more sour, where it made a point of "look at dark, realistic…

The clutter that Battleborn suffers from is going to cripple it in one of the most important aspects of a game like this: viewers. Nowadays, viewership is a very important thing for games like this. Besides eSports leagues being a thing, streaming services such as Twitch are a way to keep people interested in the game…

As a non-player of either, I can say that they will probably not deal the same blows. The main critique of Battleborn is how cluttered it is, and as a pure spectator I can say that this is absolutely the case. I still don't even know how you win a match of Overwatch, but I've watched matches and enjoyed it just…

As a Nintendo fan, I kind of know what I'm getting. We're gonna see Zelda, and that's it. I won't even think about my hopes for that, though, because I don't like setting expectations for specific games. It only leads to disappointment when it doesn't have those things.

It was pretty good, if you figured out the right things. I think Phoenix Down+Potion was a bring back from K.O. with full health, for example…and then the Salve-Master could use items on the whole party.

Oh man, I just beat that one as my first one! It took me forever, I kept dying to it. I only go to the part where it gains BP (steals them from one of your party members) on my last run, but I was sufficiently ready for its tricks enough to handle it. Things like Tiz (the healer) having an Ice Shield and casting…

I actually liked the "giant" versions of enemies better than the other ones. Every Zelda game has big scary bosses, but having your standard Chuchu enemy all of a sudden become a genuine threat was awesome and also kind of hilarious.

I'm curious about if they would want to have larger worlds in 2D, but since it's impractical, they don't. In a 3D world, if there's a location that you need to get to, you can set it at the edge of a huge field and the player can see it on the horizon. Flip the camera so that you're looking down, though, and suddenly…

Awwww, no salve-master return? That was one of my main ones too, and one that I actually did kind of want back.

You voiced exactly what I was thinking! I don't mind asset flipping too much, since it does help development, so keeping actual locations like the cities was fine…but it would have been neat to get some new music for the locations, even remixes of the old themes. Heck, even the boss fights themselves against the…

Whoo yeah! Time for the best/hardest part of 3D World, all the post-Bowser content. Also, I love the Cat Suit most, but Double Cherry is awesome…especially with what it adds to that ending. Best is definitely Cat Suit and then get Cherries! Seeing five Luigi cats run around is the greatest sight to behold.

Due to a weekend trip and working six days a week, Bravely Second has become the main attraction of my gaming log. Heading through Sagitta Forest in Chapter 3, and I'm pretty darn invested in it now, at least the main plot. The side quests have, unfortunately, suffered a bit. There are some interesting choices to be…

Smash actually just got a patch this evening, with the soul intent of nerfing Bayonetta. I haven't played it in a while, though. I started satisfying my online craving with Splatoon, and any time that my wife and i have gotten to play stuff, it's mostly been Hyrule Warriors to get ready for the start of the new…

They're a website that covers pop culture. Memes, whether you like it or not, are a form of pop culture. It's actually justifiable.

I absolutely love Tropical Freeze. I feel like its difficulty was based on assuming that players had already gone through the Wii game, and thus were ready to tackle harder challenges. World 1 is just easier to get you into it, but then everything goes crazy. World 6, man…just wait…

That is indeed the fish.

Yeah, she was in "traditional" Native American headdress and stuff. Needless to say, that was changed.
