they are giving out the absolute best Metal Slugs? Hell yeah.

“silly idea executed well” is truly the best genre of videogames.

as a fan of everything Grasshopper Manufacture has ever done, it’s difficult to not be ambivalent to the acquisition of the studio by NetEase, which I guess it’s why many of these news invite so much discourse.

comments from unlikeable weirdos are always the best.

I got mine a couple days ago, and so far the collection rocks. Sure, not many of the games hold up as they would decades ago, but as the article says, playing them in context really shows how brilliant most of them are.

one of the best things about Game Pass is that let’s me try pretty much any licensed game of notoriety that otherwise I wouldn’t buy. Downloading Lego Star Wars and Hot Wheels as soon as I can.

100% true, unfortunately. 

I clicked the link and got Luigi’d all over my face. Everyone, please be careful.

dropping acid before writing a Mario post is a very interesting choice here.

Meat Pit Tycoon would effortlessly have been GOTY 2023.

“Fine, here’s 10 years of Call of Duty, whatever. Can we please speed this up so we can make Candy Crush dispense actual crack every time you play? Please? Our shareholders are getting agitated.”

oof.

is Battlefield the Pepsi of military shooters? 

really tempted to steal my nephews’ plushies to make that vest, not gonna lie.

eh, I wouldn’t say this is entirely the hardware’s fault. They got Nier running decently on it, and Game Freak already has plenty of practice on the Switch (it’s the second generation that has debuted on this console!).

I was too, but I cannot argue with the small budget I need to enjoy games with the Series S + Gamepass.

yup, and that’s without going into the stellar (and free!) expansions that the game had. The writing can go toe to toe with anything AAA, easily.

no Signalis? Dang. And both Citizen Sleeper and Norco deserved so much more than that.

really excited for this, as a fan of both historical fiction and Obsidian.

what a lack of imagination. I’m impersonating my former boss, personally.
