“she gives the lucky medallion to Zara, who uses it herself to transform into the next big thing, Mynx.”

I just kept thinking Black Mirror with this one.

“Also funny (and thematically on-point):when Harry jumps into the barista and tries to run from the cops, only to realize that the guy’s legs are too short for him to get a good stride going.”

I still miss 80's Chuck E. Cheese. It was just the best arcade with none of the ridiculous tickets and redemption stuff and gross ball pits and climbing structures. Just rows and rows of arcade games. But eating so-so pizza while watching creepy animatronics never gets old, I guess.

How is Dick Cheney still alive?

OK, I’ll take your word for it.  It’s been a long time.

One adjustment I can’t find is that after doing a listen (R1), the character is automatically put in crouch mode. I don’t remember if this was the way it was in the first game, but I’ve just started the game and I’m already a little annoyed that I’m crouched every time I do listen. Is there any way to turn this off so…

Side note: is there any way I can get out of the grays on Kotaku?  I’ve been posting for years with no issues and I’m still gray on Kotaku.  I’m not gray on other sites so I’m not sure why I am still gray here.

HISHE just put out a funny little recap:

This must be the running guy they were showing in the Apple Arcade ads that I had no idea what game it was (at :20):

Well we do know Astro Playroom will be included on all PS5s according to its trailer.

Can somebody explain how to pronounce his girlfriend’s name?

That “finger of god” line always freaked me out.

Will Kotaku still be doing the annual “You Promised” articles about promises made at last year’s E3 and if the big 3 delivered?  I always enjoy those.

Aww, you changed the intro on all of these.

So happy to see Kotaku discuss pinball (real and digital)! It would be great to see you all talk to Zen and find out when we’ll have new Williams classic tables in for FX3.

Wow, Twitter did the absolute bare minimum.  Congratulations.

I can’t believe how easy that million dollar question is, even without help!

I’m going to miss Schooled.  It was a great companion to The Goldbergs.
