I know it’s a little odd to offer up the Russos as an example of directors putting their own stamp on MCU films, but seriously: watch Captain America: The First Avenger, and then watch a few episodes of Arrested Development and Community (especially A Fistful of Paintballs and For A Few Paintballs More) and then go…

Thinking Eleanor Bishop will be Madam Masque in this

Going by the set photos that leaked, you have nothing to worry about on that score.

It feels like the “Endless game” thing started in earnest with Oblivion, which kicked off an open-world trend that lasted two console generations. Likewise the rise of modern roguelikes/roguelites came with the indie renaissance and Spelunky.

The older (and the dad-ier) I get, the more I think that the “endless game”-thing seems a bit like a wish made on a monkey’s paw. When I was a child, I couldn’t imagine anything better than an endless novel (I thought I had upon finishing “Lord of The Rings”, before I encountered “The Wheel of Time). Now I’m at a…

Big News! BIG NEWS! I Finally Won A Game of Tetris 99!!! 

To answer that question: probably because all the depictions of those deities created actually looked like those people. I mean, it’s not actually an assumption to think they look a specific way when they are shown to actually look that way.

Jackie Daytona: Regular Human Bartender

While I certainly understand the business decision square made (which was likely written on a whiteboard in an early meeting as literally “marvel=money”) it remains a really bizarre choice on a creative level to make an avengers game like this.

How does it compare, gameplay-wise, to something like Ultimate Alliance?

As a sidenote, related to Tomb Raider there was a minor revelation this week that was really, really weird and just wanted to comment on it despite nobody being interested.

Finished Gear 5 which, while I overall liked the game, was such a bafflingly written game. It felt like it had three or four writers independently working on different sections and then just forced them together as none of the first three Acts felt like they fitted together. Still interested in Gears 6 and loved Kait…

The first Witcher is such an interesting phenomenon as I also tried to replay it a while back and just couldn’t get that far before deciding that it was somehow even worse than I remembered it being. Also it was clearly one of those games where it committed so hard to being grey that even when there were situations…

I am playing The Witcher and I can safely say that the first Witcher is a bad game. But I cheated combat into being a non-issue so instead I just have to deal with the crapshoot of a story. It is capable of good individual scenes, but it often feels written by a particularly clever 14 year old, right down to the…

I’ve finally arrived at a game that a lot of people in these WAYPTW were raving about a year or so back. The maddening, addicting, clever, and possibly way too bloody difficult for it’s own good puzzler Baba Is You. And I one thousand per cent understand why everyone of y’all was talking it up so much. The rules being…

Thanks for not making this a slideshow. 

I love stealth in first person cause it is realistic. I like coming around a corner and straight into a guy I didn’t notice. I will say that dishonored has the best first person stealth ever.

Wow, it’s almost like there’s a less controversial explanation for this.

For the fact that it isn’t an ornament. You’re not buying it to spruce your home up, you’re buying it to play games. It should look appropriate to where it’ll be, likely on a shelf close to a TV. This would look appropriate sitting next to a Lamborghini.
