Pokemon was a perfect storm that I don’t think the video game world (or the real world) will ever see again. It was a big financial gamble to simultaneously bring over the games, anime and comics (and the TCG just a few months later) but... man, did it work. There was just some sort of magic there, and it’s hard to…

I’ve been saying this for hockey, as well. Cut the season to 40-60 games. 82 is a LOT.

Buffalo has AMAZING local pizza, so it’s rare that I have to eat chain trash, but Cici’s, Pizza Hut and Caesar’s are ALL better than Papa John’s.

I bought a PS4 over a year ago, pretty much specifically for Spider-Man. And while I’ve found some other games to pick up for my console (I don’t regret my purchase), that is STILL the game I cannot wait to play. It looks stunning, and I love the direction they seem to be taking.

Great article. I loved this game SO MUCH. I keep hoping Retro Studios next project is a sequel.

I LOVE Phantump. Such a messed up entry. Nothing beats the creepiness of Mimikyu, though.

This is heartbreaking.

Nice RiD Ultra Magnus in the background!

Except one of the biggest problems indie developers face is knowing how much to charge and MANY of them don’t charge nearly what they should.

I say good on the school for not messing around. As a kid, this would have bummed me out for sure, especially as I was the type to not be involved in crap like this, or know about it until LONG after the fact. But the school needed to send a message that they’re taking this seriously and they did just that. It doesn’t…

This is a terrific read. Really interesting stuff.

Seriously agreed. It’s mind-blowing.

I do the same sometimes. I barely played Pikmin because I was paralyzed into inaction.

The comic isn’t readily available in print, is it? Shame. MAD is one of my favorites. His X-Men came out when I was a kid and it’s still the way I picture those characters.

Such a staple of high school and early college, for me. Before texting was this big thing, AIM was it. I rarely asked girls for their number, it was “what’s your AIM SN?” Logging on was such a nightly ritual. I’d sit on and just toss on Simpsons and South Park reruns on as background noise. And it was so exciting when…

Might I also recommend Kirby’s Epic Yarn? Beautiful, peaceful platformer with a phenomenal soundtrack. Probably one of my favorite gaming experiences ever.

Hey! Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones was pretty good!

I say this every time you post one of these, but I LOVE this article series.

Really, really hoping this ends up on Switch or PS4. I’m in love with the graphics.

I imagine Justin Timberlake has a similar reaction every time he gets an e-mail that reads “N*Sync reunion.”
