Heaven forbid you might need to actually enjoy the randomness factor of the game and not cheat it

Mike, this is awesome because I love Weird Al, and I first met this character when my 3 yr old daughter was watching an episode with Cheese in it, and I didn’t think anything of it, just leaving the show in the background.

I left the room to do something else. When I came back I instantly realized Cheese was voiced by…

I gotta do some digging to find the source, but I remember hearing that most network and toy execs believe that boys buy more toys. Not too surprising when you stop and watch a few toy commercials and notice just how male focused they can be.

Having worked many of the Hasbro development teams, I’m not surprised, at all. Like Disney, they were completely unwilling to see maker fans as anything else but copyright infringers.

In case you nerds need it (and judging by most of the parodies I’ve already seen, you seriously do), here’s an animated After Effects template I made of the Overwatch Play-Of-The-Game text, available for your downloading and parodying pleasure.

This thoughtful response demonstrates why I think Kotaku is the saving grace of Gawker.

Sounds like the big problem with this game is that there’s too few victory conditions outside of “rule everything”.

This is such a good story. I feel like game fans often resort to attacking developers with their lizard brains on issues of game substance without ever stopping for a millisecond to think of the countless decisions that led to what you see on the big screen. I wish there was a better way to aim displeasure at systemic…
