This is gross and I hate it.

The fact that no one has shipped Pathfinder and dissembodied Announcer Lady Voice makes me sad. There’s something there.  Well, I guess you gotta be the change you seek...

Hell yeah dude, now buckle in for 4 more games of that silliness... actually 5 isn’t very silly and it’s kind of a disappointment but 2 and 4 are absolutely a blast and 3 is a masterpiece (though probably feels dated in 2019 with it’s old PS2 controls).

The hornet fight is tough because they’re hiding what should be an ability you have from the start behind it (that excellent dash). I wish I could tell you that bosses got easier as you get better at the game... but... they don’t.

Nier starts really slow and normal and frankly boring but

In a post-bloodborne world I found it a lot harder to go back to the earlier Dark Souls.  Dark Souls III obviously took some cues from Bloodborne and sped up it’s combat and gave dodging more of a beef but, once you get used to the bob and weave aggression of Bloodborne (and not to mention it’s killer Lovecraftian

Between Ape Out and Gris, I am becoming incredibly green with jealousy as the PS4 gets left out of the release loop for a lot of great looking indies. Both those games did Switch & PC at release while leaving out Sony’s big black box. Weird but oh well, cuz at this point I would probably buy those games and then not

Glad to see *Mom shaking her head while folding laundry* is a metric many of us can relate to whether applied to video games, anime or whatever weird friend you brought home from school that day (Jared Defenders Log-on!)

That makes more sense as a read, you’re right. I probably misread it with more dismissive-ness than it intended.

I’ll be honest, I’m a little confused here. I like gaming criticism, I enjoy consuming it. That’s why I come to sites like this and follow people on YouTube who do it. I understand, being tired of seeing the same criticisms leveled because games haven’t really evolved but does that really mean we should stop

The guy who made Heat Signature also made Gunpoint which is just a tightly made little gem of a game. I’ll have to check out Heat if it comes out on console.

You actually went through with all the Valkyries?!? You’re a beast man.  I gave up after 2 Valkyrie wins and felt like I was beating my head against a wall on the rest.  I did watch a YouTube video of the Queen though and holy hell that looks like a controller snapper.

Real heads come in at 8 am CST and post on every comment because they don’t want to start working yet.

Cookie Clickers are really only a step removed from your Anthems and your Destinies and your WoWs. Games designed to release some kind of skinner-box mentality in us, by giving you that tiny hit of dopamine when you unlock a new piece of gear or cosmetics or cookie.

True Story: the first time I did Acid, I played an instrumental role in the planning and execution of the 9/11 Terrorist Attacks.

The best way to enjoy the cheesiness of MGS is to recognize it for what it is, a glorious blended concoction of Tom Clancy, 90s Cyber-punk Anime and a Freshman Philosophy 101 term paper. Obviously in the world of twin stick manuevering it feels awkward but stick with it and it begins to feel natural. That was one of

The decision to turn travel time into ‘Lore Dump’ time on the Lake of Nine was such a simple but ingenious time.  So many times I’d just wait to land in the canoe because I wanted to hear the end of Mimir’s story.

Capcom always towing the line between fan service and bodyhorror so well.  Truly commendable.

That Arcade holy hell...

I have reached 100% addiction levels with Apex Legends. When I’m not playing the game (after my wife and son go to bed) I’m thinking about it, or I’m watching videos about which guns are best by YouTubers with names like “Drift0r” and “JackFrags”. There’s an itch in everyone of our monkey brains that I think
