I love articles like this since I’m not technically savvy enough to always know which games will and won’t absolutely tear my PC to shreds. Buying *new* new games is always a gamble. Gonna have to try this, even if the reviews for FC5 haven’t been all that glowing.

Holy shit, Latoya! I’m probably just blind, but I haven’t seen your name on the byline of these articles for a minute, not since the AV Club decided to scale back the WWE reviews way back when. Glad to see you again, especially on another show I’m interested in watching; Been meaning to catch Good Girls ever since I…

I’m clamoring for the day it finally gets uploaded to the comedy central youtube channel because it isn’t there yet, but the hardest time I ever laughed watching Key and Peele was during a sketch that was clearly a play on Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner where, when Key realizes his white girlfriend’s family isn’t fond…

My friend and I also played this game; had fun talking about how it was pretty, but overpriced and under cooked, all things considered. The first werewolf transformation in the game is pretty wicked though.

This is pretty salient considering I just finished... ahem, enjoying myself to a video of somebody’s honey select gameplay where they recreated Mitsuru from persona 3; had homegirl in a leather bondage suit and everything.

This mostly just seems obnoxious. So uh, good job to the creator, I guess?

Sure, but it’s at least funnier if you look at it as Goku (and every version of Goku) being a reskin of Bardock since he’s the latter’s son.

I felt the same way trying my hand at the mode last night. Definitely a step up from last year. I had to learn through trial and error that mobility based moves make you drop the flag; I kept thinking that maybe taking too much damage was the reason, but started noticing the pattern after say, going from boost jumping…

Japan has always fascinated me, and it’s definitely at the top of my international-travel dream list. Precisely how common is English there? Could a person with absolutely zero knowledge of Japanese have a decent time without too many issues?

I very, very, *very* briefly misread the headline as “Link gets an onahole.”

I remember Heather mentioning James Howell’s “Driving Off The Map” essay and being so excited and grateful for being introduced to such an insightful look at a game that I still really, really want to play. Knowing that he also has a playthrough of it blows my mind. 

Very fitting that the header is of my two absolute favorite characters on Twin Peaks, which I started and finished, finally, this year. Well, the original series anyway; my friend and I still have to catch up on Twin Peaks: The Return. We were able to watch the first two episodes thanks to a free trial showtime…

So your problem isn’t with Pikachu precisely, but with Game Freak overexposing him. Though I guess “Fuck Game Freak” while more accurate, doesn’t make for quite as inflammatory clickbait.

Holy shit, this is awesome. Thanks, Luke!

This is so hilarious to me; I’ve literally daydreamed about winning some huge tournament, winning, and casually walking off without a word like it was no big deal. This is amazing.

What you said. It never ceases to amaze me how much people don’t realize they do the exact thing they supposedly don’t understand.

There definitely isn’t any getting around the fact that microtransactions are pretty shady. The simplest solution, I imagine, if Jeff and Blizzard have such a hard-on for loot boxes, but also want to prove they’re not trying to exploit those with gambling issues, would be to eliminate the ability to pay with actual…

Offensively, Moira can feel like a more aggressive Symmetra

Dope. I’m excited. Sidenote: We gettin’ a young Reinhardt skin or nah?
