I also love Egon also trying to smile naturally after “we’re ready to believe you.”

The cartoon you’re referring to was just called Ghostbusters. Which is what left Columbia having to awkwardly title their cartoon The Real Ghostbusters. 

My son has taught me to love completely and unconditionally*

I assume it looks like a conference room with a pile of shit in one of the chairs.

You know that every one of these fuckwits is well aware of the endless parade of video footage of Karens in the wild and still thinks “this... this is the one that will show everybody that we were right all along. I’ll be rightly celebrated as the goddamn hero I know I am.”

It’s hard to remember that there was a time when buying a game didn’t come with much of a promise that you’d actually be able to finish it.

“She looks very familiar to me.”

These guys are exceptional. I have the Genesis/MD and Dreamcast Collected Works books, and they are legitimate works of art.

It’s fine to say a game has dark marshes, cathedrals, skeletons, and zombies in it, but so does the Zelda franchise. It’s a matter of how those elements are presented.

Carrying the original style directly into HD was already done in Xenoblade Chronicles X — a game which was roundly mocked at the time of release for how freaky the characters looked. 

Again, you’re not hearing what I’m saying. I’m not complaining about old hardware. There were a lot of beautiful games on the Wii, just like there were a lot of beautiful games on all sorts of older hardware.

Making a “recognizable” character out of low-poly models is a low bar to set for mastery. Making a beautiful character out of low-poly models is a mark of mastery.

You’re conflating two things and putting words into my mouth.

The difference is that Tim Follin mastered the NES sound chip.

I generally agree that art direction is more important than anything else, but the character models in the original game were grotesque. They looked ugly even at the time of release.

Debatable for FF6, honestly. It’s a great game, no doubt. But the music is handled pretty poorly in the GBA version.

I feel like this list could have gone on for days. Portable or not, the GBA is one of the best consoles ever made. Its library is insane.

I love that we now have a literal instance of Trump blowing sunshine up our asses.

Rightwing media will spin literally anything, so there’s no sense worrying about them spinning any specific thing. 

Likewise the games they are writing about.
