There is a sidescrolling section where you have to get to the top of the skyscraper and rescue Rosalita from DK!

What do you mean by recreating the Donkey Kong levels? Because I’ve found at least one recreated Donkey Kong level that uses the 2D wall-wrapped platforming.

Huh? Might be a spoiler, but there is a large arcade Donkey Kong contingent to the playthrough of New Donk City.

It’s as if when Jack Thompson was finally defeated, his dark essence spread out into the world and infected the games press and caused them to get all hand wringing about game violence, like the first time you defeat Orochi in Okami.

Rewarding the best. Shameful idea.

why not just have a rating for it/safe search option? America has such a weird complex about sex vs. violence.

You seriously expect me to forget this?

What? You don’t like critique coming from a foregone conclusion and then filtered through annoying irony? Are you some kind of deviant?

This is why we need ‘community grade’ back

Also, when a straight Yakov Smirnoff reference makes it into a finished piece, either the writer doesn’t care about the material or the editor doesn’t care about how the writer comes off. That stuff doesn’t work as a joke or even an anti-joke, it just lays on the screen like a bad tweet.

This is probably the first time I find myself hoping that a show changes reviewers between seasons (presuming this gets a second). I don’t really enjoy reading extended analysis of non-diegetic music choices that resembles analysis of inconsistent engine specifications on the starship Enterprise. The way it’s deployed…

I thought the hospital room standoff was great, too. I loved that the audience knew something was up well before the guy who’s been touring the country lecturing cops about “motive and opportunity.” The review’s comparison to over-the-top Joker plots feels off to me. What was scary was how ordinary it all was. Kemper…

You missed the part where Holden jumped through a window and blew Kemper away to Ina-Gadda-da-Vida?

You don’t remember the scene with Wendy and her partner?

Having gone to school in the seventies, I would have been DELIGHTED to have a principle who used tickling instead of a big wooden paddle with holes in it that he kept mounted over his desk.

I really think they should have made that contrast on the show...plus, schools were trying all sorts of “progressive” things back…

And personally, I liked the weird juxtaposition of Page’ epic guitar noodling with Holden’s breakdown. Stop needing everything to be so literal, AVC!

Re: Wade. It was a different era, AV Club. I’m sure Wade thought what he was doing was entirely innocent. People didn’t think the same way back then. So yeah, I do feel sorry for him.

Re: Rader. I would love if this show fast-forwarded at some point to Rader’s downfall and capture in 2005, but no way they’re gonna do…

These reviews are terrible.

“ when he says shit like “I am the exact same person that you reeled in with that jumpsuit” and she lets the gross she-was-asking-for-it implications of that objectifying statement slide by completely,”- it’d be fairly gross if he used it as a justification for rape or something, but for starting up a conversation at…

If you read the article this is just over sensitive. They were third party employees not even working for tesla.
