“Pro Smash Players will not see a cent until they get rid of their scent.”

There’s throwing stones from a glass house, and then there’s throwing stones from atop a pile of broken glass.  

Suddenly it’s “PC” to not talk about your butthole in a public, sponsored setting.

And articles like this help me make an informed decision about which developers I support.

Oh please. Don’t be such a fucking hipster. If I say a game plays like garbage, it’s not because I “don’t understand the creative choices made by the development team” it’s because it plays like garbage. God knows I’ve only been playing videogames for nigh-on four decades now, there’s at least a fair-to-middling…

I’ve never had any reason to do any of those things, but at least the Switch menu is responsive and not full of ads.  

No one will ever catch up on their backlogs. Realize this and be free. 

XIII does have optional bosses and dungeons. It's all on Pulse and in the post game.

You hit the nail on the head. That’s the first problem with all genre-gatekeeping arguments like the ones lobbed against FF13. In essence, they all boil down to “This is a bad game because I didn’t like it. Games I like have X, Y, and Z. This game did not have X or Y, and it did Z very poorly. Therefore it is a bad…

Most of the items you cite are only bad if you except the premise that they are bad. For example, is linearity bad? It depends who you ask and what the context is. For instance, I like FFX and Xenosaga.

Oh, come on, the combat is also a lot of fun. I mean, it grows tired fast because there is no reason to keep doing it, but, you know, I had fun going through the very mediocre campaign and playing a little endgame content before I tired of the four endgame missions that exist...

Or what, Neil Tyson will tweet at me?

I was on ResetEra and some members were making fun of Green Day and how the show seemed to be trying so hard to appeal to kids they failed at it(symbolized by that meme of Steve Buscemi’s “How do you do, fellow kids?”) but then the feed cut to people in their 30s and 40s excitedly crowding the front with huge smiles…

To be fair, geoff keighley always struck me as an insufferable asshole and probably deserves as much frustration as possible.

Are you Geoff Keighley or what? Come on dude. That shit was boring as fuck, even just watching on TV. Take off your damn Doritos Pope hat for a minute.

It’s an industry wank-fest used as an excuse to show commercials. Lighten up, Francis.

That No More Heroes 3 trailer isn’t getting nearly enough credit. So awesomely weird. So happy to get another mainline entry in the series after the... conceptually adventurous... Travis Strikes Again.

No we can’t because him and Michelle are real gamers playing”Te Ken” late into the night!

No Bayonetta 3...damn
