Call me crazy, but I actually do believe there’s a legitimacy to the mission of staying open for any game store these days. I’m probably not exaggerating when I say lives could literally be saved if people are more motivated to stay at home and play something.

That name and logo look like some generic fictional retailer that would be in a strip-mall in an open world game, lol.

GameStop calling themselves an “essential retailer” was reckless, self-serving bullshit on their part but contained a kernel of reality to it.

Why do you always play multi-platform games you review on PS4?

I don’t “play” with them as I’m a grown man, but I do enjoy building them every so often. It’s calming, almost meditative, to just sit there and follow the instructions. I’ll pick up a set, put it together, and then give it to one of my nephews the next time I see them.

Funny you mention that, because although you’re certain to be correct, I recall distinctly that LEGO in the very, very earliest days of releasing sets based on licensed properties did do one-and-dones for Spider-man and Jurassic Park III and did not revisit either for a decade.

No irony at all to a story of people working insane hours, compromising their immune systems, on-site, in the midst of a growing pandemic, building a game about surviving the aftermath of a pandemic.

I am that guy.

We can’t be living our lives in fear. Our very Freedoms are under attack. If E3 is cancelled, then the Coronavirus has already won.

Can’t help but get the feeling that this was planned for the general election campaign and now is being rushed out before Sanders (all but inevitably at this point) calls it quits.

The timing of this release is just bang-on perfect for me too, it’s nice to have a little escapism from the anxiety of living in New York City while a deadly virus threatens a complete breakdown in civil order.

You’re an asshole for making me use 119 of my hard-earned Spanfeller herbs upvoting you and making me purchase 1,000 Spanfeller herbs + 150 BONUS Spanfeller herbs to refill my Spansack wallet balance so I could reply and tell you you’re an asshole.

Why are the rubber bands controversial, but not the fact that (from what I understand) these ultra-speedrun tricks are only possible in the Japanese version of the game?

What? You mean to tell me that I changed my Xbox’s timezone to New Zealand for nothing?

Drain the Thwomp (Also considered “Superballs of Fury” as the title)

Great flying in a shitty game. It was truly Anthem before Anthem.

John Henry was friggin’ awesome though. I bought the first ten or so issues of his series, read them so many times...

Scubba, Nah-Toh, and Peeen like everyone else does.

Errrr... My read was that they’re cheekily having it both ways. Maybe I missed that point.

My mind isn’t changing. It’s a hard G.
