Fun Fact! The GoW Ragnarok devs said that they actually didn’t need wall cracks, despite them being all throughout the game. Apparently the cracks are used as gating to ensure that a player stays in a certain area for puzzle elements or landmarks to create a mental map of what zone connects with which.

Neat story, but…

I thought that making it PS5 exclusive means they don’t need wall cracks?

Well, the one movie that actually did try to take some big risks, was panned by a select group of Star Wars fans, and because its numbers didn’t reach the previous incredibly safe entry, they chose to go back to being safe and so we got another very generic Star Wars movie.

Never playing Tetris is understandable, like never watching Star Wars. Never hearing of Tetris seems unlikely, and pretty similar to claiming you’ve never heard of Star Wars. It’s just one of those ubiquitous pop culture things that it seems hard to believe any adult in 2023 hasn’t heard of it.

I know a few people who havent seen star wars but they for sure know it exists. 

I think it’s the fact that he’s a film critic that makes this astounding. I can buy that someone so far removed from all media maybe hasn’t heard of it. But if your chosen career path is to watch films, of which Tetris is one of the few games that has been around long enough and has enough cultural footprint to be…

The pistol he’s using isn’t an actual Lego piece as far as I can tell.

Amazing but wish they used the UI for RE4 and not RE4 Remake since it follows the original game.

I remember seeing the trailer for EEAAO this time last year and thinking like Swiss Army Man, it would be a neat weirdo movie that would be seen by 5 people and live as a cult classic

I’ll never forget seeing Everything Everywhere All at Once last March, sitting in a theatre with just a few people there too, with a mask on (safety and common courtesy at the time!), thinking, “oh my god, I hope even more people see this movie because it is one of the most insane and unique movies I’ve seen in…

To be fair, if you take away the facial hair, Leon doesn’t look any older either. That’s the magic of facial hair.

NFTs and AI art aren’t equivalent, dude.

NFTs are worthless in almost every case. AI it’s a bit more nuanced, it’s clearly a good technology, it’s the implementation that unilaterally sucks which means pretty much any case of a company using it provoked big (warranted) criticisms. It’s not hating the tech to recognize that it’s being abused in almost every…

I actually enjoyed WW84 as a silly, retro-1980s superhero movie in the vein of Superman III, but I kinda get the feeling it was where Warner Bros. realized the Snyder legacy DCEU was not working out and needed to be junked ASAP.

You think that publishers are going to keep paying people to make the art if they can pay one person to run a few different AI’s to do it all?

This is both a reasonable stance and something that frustrates me. The whole “let’s see if it catches on” is very much one of the reasons VR *struggles* to catch on. It feels like such a self-fulfilling prophecy to me.

If you want to play original PS VR games you need a PlayStation 4 and an original PS VR.

I assume they meant the WiiU, but I’m not sure if they misattributed the Zelda games.

Right since handhelds have always been their strong suit and no-one was ever able to compete with them. It’s been nice having a single console to play on TV and be able to take it with me on the go.

someone too stupid to look at the winners beforehand and make sure you know how to pronounce them.
