I miss Taco Bell’s Verde Salsa.  I mean, I’m pretty sure you can still get it as a bottle in grocery stores, but I’m not going to carry a small bottle with me everywhere I go, just in case I get Taco Bell.  Well, not yet, anyway.  Maybe I can install kind of sauce rack in my car.

This site already slices up every hype-cycle (whatever entertainment nonsense is trending now, press for the next big movie/album/whatever is on the distant horizon) into smaller and smaller bits to keep a drip-feed of microposts going for weeks. I need less, more thoughtfully written posts, not more! I’m not even…

Is the code for the Season One games going to be shared as well?

As someone who has gone back and forth on this, I’ll do my best to field this one:

From the games you list, I can’t really pin down exactly where you gaming tastes lie, so I’m just going to list off some games that I really like, along with an short elevator-pitch description.You can ignore or ask followup questions as you please:

Woof, turns out no one actually gives a crap about Dumbledore’s secrets

Wingspan’s great...and “interest check” is an odd phrase, but I’ll have to incorporate into my idiolect!

Vampire Survivors is technically a rogue-like/rogue-lite, right? Is there no value to playing it after clearing everything? I honestly do not know, since I have yet to play it and I have only an inkling of the gameplay. I will likely never 100% The Binding of Isaac or its many iterations/addons--some of the challenges…

I’m sure I have plenty to say about Elden Ring, the game that consumes so much of my free time and that lives rent-free in my head, and I might do so if I can find the time today.

The series is slowly getting better bit by bit, but I just can’t get over my dislike of Steven Grant. Mind you, Marc Spector is not all that interesting, either, but he’s is leaning hard into that “tortured soul with a haunted past” trope. I know that Steven Grant is likely supposed to be an invented personality of…

End of Xenogears Disc One: “OK, there’s a weird things happening, but I think I can follow the plot.”

Honestly, the framing is there in the first scene (at least the first scene in the version I watched): the from-the-ground view of Metropolis as Bruce makes his way through the city being ravaged by Zod and Supe’s battle in the sky. As much as fans love the idea of Batman as the Ultimate Boy Scout (hypercompetent and…

I don’t want to shit on this little corporate-branded time-waster, because someone likely worked hard on it (or had to finish it under a deadline, in any case). But, as a Burgertime trufan, I will list several problems with this version:

Welp, I missed this when it was posted, saw it come up in the Infinite Scroll format after another article I was reading today on my smartphone. When I actually got to my laptop to try and find it again so I might post a comment on it, but I couldn’t find it under the “Comics” tag or the “Aux” section, despite it only…

You know, I dunk on these Newswires from time to time for their low-effort, low-content clickbait (which I...ya know...click on), but I’ll throw you a compliment here:  you could have just posted that image with “^^This^^” and the link to your source underneath and I would have crowned your heads with laurels for…

I love the Court of Owls idea in theory, but, in practice, aren’t they more of a mastermind villain conspiracy that you bring out after Batman has been active for some time? You don’t want to bring them out right away (reminders of how BBC’s Sherlock handled that one); this is a mystery that you want to subtly let…

Honestly, the “guidance of grace” points you in a LOT of directions. That’s probably another FromSoft design trope: intentionally vague objectives.

As for myself, I went to Liurnia after beating Godrick, because Caelid just scared the shit out of me the few times I ventured out there (there is some really outstanding early-game sorcery shit out hiding in the middle of a toxic swamp). I’m maybe confident enough now that I might go there after beating the…

I am cautiously mildly optimistic. That’s a diverse lineup. The sparse, repeating lyrics on Dig Me Out dovetail nicely with Low’s own output.

You sure got my number, Mac!  And how goes life in the circus sideshow?
