I’m starting to think that these magical battles in which lethal blows are a minor inconvenience are a bit unrealistic. (I do love this sort of nitpicking though, especially with MK)

I have to admit, I’m curious how it would have worked. Still glad it got scrapped, though. 

Yuuup. I was stunned when I saw that the PC I had bought about 5 years ago (and it was hardly impressive even then, bog standard build slightly more powerful than a PS4) is now double the price for the exact same dated specs.

Yeah, that’s where I’m confused on the whole multiple ownership thing. I feel like my family does when they need help with “The Googles”: like I’m missing some crucial information that makes it make sense to blow, say, nearly 400k on a link to a cheap-looking Grimes clip or 1.2m on an untextured Chadwick Boseman…

We’ve fixed the error, congratulations to you and your daughter Buttholesurfers Tate.”

Yes please. Haven’t played a good “forcibly turn things into multiple smaller things” game in a while. 

From my understanding, the idea in those cases is that you own “stake” in the NFT? Someone more knowledgeable, can you fill us in on that? 

Seriously, his face being portrayed is obviously not the issue, I feel like Oshea is being intentionally obtuse to justify going ahead with the thing.

This sounds directly up my alley. That Troma-like magic is so difficult to pin down (hell, even Lloyd Kaufmann struggles to capture it now and then) that I treasure it when someone pulls it off. 

I feel that same connection to music, and I agree: Rhythm games are like therapy to me. They force active listening on you, which can make you appreciate a song on an entirely different level.

It’s fine in most games, but it does need to be more subtle in many instances.

I have to say, I’m surprised that this whole thing actually amounted to something besides mere... Joshing around. 

South Park is an insanely durable show, staying fun and relevant WAAAAY past when its quality should have been Simpsons’d/Family Guy’d. That said, it’s funny that Stone & Parker want to scuttle the first four seasons from the show’s legacy... to me, that’s core South Park. I miss when an episode’s plot had little to…

Gotham may have been a bizarre show (a good thing IMO, since I grew up on weird-ass Burton Batman), but it deserved more recognition for its performances. Not all of them were gold, but Bruce, Selina, and Not Joker But Actually Joker But Nope But Yes were as good as anyone could ask. 

I never expected this to be good, but how did they manage to blow it this badly? I don’t mind the awkward fan service, MK lives and breathes fan service, but it sounds like this is the exact opposite of what they hyped it up to be.

Doubt we’ll see that from Housemarque, arcadey pew-pews are their specialty.

I had a feeling. Sony can be infuriatingly stubborn (as can Nintendo, for that matter), but this is an easy mess to fix. Now, if they’re serious about listening, they’d stop paying lip service to legacy support and just do the thing properly. The PS3 will always be an outlier due to its weird hardware, but there’s no…

Doom 2 and “Believe” by Cher. I just have a random memory of playing Doom 2 while listening to the radio in 1998, and to this day I can’t think of one without the other. I have a few strong song/game associations, mostly from the 90s and early aughts, but for some utterly inexplicable reason, that’s the one that stuck…

On the one hand, at least this is more useful than most NFTs. On the other, you’d probably have more luck buying the rights to some long-forgotten B movie than to a late-era Kevin Smith horror comedy. It’d be cheaper, too. 

Ha! I can’t believe I let “Traptdoor” slip by me.
