I don’t even love Street Fighter the same as some other gamers, but I somehow manage to buy Street Fighter II on every system I own. And the Genesis version is still my favourite.

I thought David Hayter handled this better with MGSV. He made some noise about the “humilation” of getting replaced, but he also seemed to understand why Kojima wanted a big-name celebrity to replace him. (IMHO, it was dumb, and the only Solid Snake voice is Hayter’s, but Hayter wasn’t petty like Taylor has been.)

So this... wasn’t that funny? It felt more like a stream of references to Herzog films, but with no real humour worked in. “Oh look, they’re pulling a billiards table up the hill instead of a boat” isn’t a joke. It’s just a reference.

All decent actors are alike, but every terrible actor is terrible in his own way.

yeah that’s fair. I was more thinking how Bloober specializes in moment-to-moment confusion - like a door that vanishes when you turn around - and I’m struggling to imagine how that would translate to a game where the map is so important. Getting lost in SH is part of the experience, but having the map literally…

the first Layers of Fear did one thing and one thing extremely well - play with your perceptions and expectations of the “game world”. If you like the idea of walking down a hallway, reaching a dead end, and then turning around and discovering that the entire hallway has disappeared and you’re now someplace else -…

I hear Mike Richards is available.

NBA Jam: On Fire Edition might actually be my favourite NBA Jam. Fantastic core gameplay, over-the-top animations, incredibly deep roster with fun unlockables like Obama, the Beastie Boys, and all the NBA mascots.

Nick Schenk (The Mule, Gran Torino, Cry Macho)

The ghost of Christopher Plummer is available.

Is Isildur really dead / how will they bring him back in time to cut the ring off Sauron’s finger?

Too bad none of these shows are particularly scary. I’ve tried watching a few, but aside from one or two jump scares, it’s a lot of dodgy CGI and a pretty dull atmosphere.

Resident Evil 4 isn’t scary though. I mean, purely setting aside debates on whether RE should be so action-oriented, RE4 simply is not a scary game.

Hopefully this will finally put to rest the rumours that Lea Michele is, in any way, able to read and write.

except that in, say, the Battle of the Pelennor Fields, Aragorn specifically went on a mission to recruit the Army of the Dead and bring them to the battle. That’s far different from:

if only there was some well-known voice actor with an established track record of playing Nintendo characters

you’re doing god’s work

Someone please explain how it is that Galadriel and co. show up at exactly the right place and exactly the right moment to help the Southlanders. They have no knowledge that there’s an ongoing attack at this specific place, yet somehow they magically land their ships and immediately race their horses to exactly where…

Jason Fischer. Now that, friends, is a solid aptronym.

You might say it moved him... TO A BIGGER HOUSE!
