There was a certain charm to those PS1 days of using pre-rendered backgrounds. Looks super primitive today, since games are able to do this 100x better and in realtime, but back then I used to think it was a pretty cool way to cheat graphics. Especially how they would blend and transition, like with Riven and Abe’s

RE2 remade into the RE4 format? Hell to the yeah, I’m in.

Thanks for the head’s-up. I owe ya one. It’s totally perfect for my feed that is filled with too-serious people. A palate cleanser, if you will.

The Phantom Menace: “Turmoil has engulfed the Galactic Republic. The taxation of trade routes to outlying star systems is in dispute.”

I think also a large part of his change was the fact that he became several bosses in one, with Lucasfilm, ILM, Skywalker Sound, etc, and then it’s like, man how do you say no to him if he thinks he’s right?

“Star Wars used to be a pastiche of external influences like Flash Gordon, Lord of the Rings, etc; it has over the years switched to being primarily a pastiche of itself.”

She is one of the few legit female heroes of DC that gets rubber-banded between soloing and being Hawkman’s sidekick. Totally underrated and underestimated. Lots of potential there.

WB and DC keeps on keepin’ on. They are a mess.

The excluded conveyor belt level in the home ports has been what stopped me from getting the zillion ports made up to now after feeling burned the first time. Finally, justice has come.

Those also get ignored by the majority of the players. Hype much?

I hope your interview covers some interesting things that have cropped up over the years, such as why every illogical design choice is answered with “sorry, this is due to server limitations”, “we knew this was obviously a terribad decision to implement, please provide feedback anyway on how we wasted your time”, and

The white spider overlay on his costume needs to go. If the game allows us to swap out costumes in the beginning for something else (anything else), I’m in.

If there is a downside to the Geoff news, it’s Jim Lee. Why won’t he go away already? His name is always attached to some lame-brained “creative/artistic” gimmick since forever. He basically took DC and gave the company the shitty Wildstorm treatment. He had his time to shine back in the day. Bring in someone else now.

Yada yada yada... TLDR —- We humans leave trash everywhere. Let’s assume all other potential discoverable intelligent technologically-advanced lifeforms are as dumb as we are. This is almost equivalent to assuming that Earth was the center of the universe. lol

All the trolling nerds who might have migrated over from Star Trek should go back to their fuckin caves. You know the ones; they mull over the tiniest stupid details like what size screwbolts are used to hold the Falcon together, or how lightsabers are made. Granted, Lucasfilm just keeps trying to feed the idiocy, so

I’m optimistic that Disney will be able to keep the ball rolling for the newer guys. His track record for how he put Disney back on the map with its animation efforts are all there for the world to see and learn from. Bummer to see his downfall, but life goes on.

Sea-Monkeys. The one that had all those ancient comicbook ads.

The style of humor in the trailers seemed so outdated to me, like it was trying to recapture the original but falling flat. If this had come out maybe a few years after the first, it would have likely flied, but not really in 2018.

The great Trek over-saturation era was a real thing. Not just from an audience point of view, but the writers would come up with so much stuff that eventually they got to a point where they would write themselves into a corner all the time until the only tropes left were the dumb-as-fuck ones. To say that they were

Also, having Ron Howard come in probably dulled whatever remaining edgy material was left. His style has always had that annoying “play it safe” vibe to his films.
