My wife is a huge fan of the Nancy Drew games, and they were good enough fun figuring things out. My wife, her sister and I would all sit on the same couch and figure things out together while yelling at Nancy for being an idiot. One of the games also taught me binary so I could figure out a puzzle! Though I’ve…

Hello all! Nice roundup of contemporary detective games, always nice to explore different genres than the standard shooters or platformers. I have to say it’s the genre I probably have the least experience in, having basically just played Phoenix Wright. I still love returning to those games when I’ve forgotten enough…

I randomly bought SSX 3 on the Xbox store for 10 bucks a few weeks ago and 100% it last night. Solid game

What Have You Finished This Week?

Salutations~!

Wellll, isn’t this serendipitous! I just came over to talk about the game I finished this last week, Detective Pikachu! More interactive novel than spicy sleuthing, it not only prepared me for the upcoming movie, but has given me a personal interest in these things called Pokemon for the first time.

The original came…

So, I have a new game drive for the PS4, which has let me install a couple new things and also fix some others.

Nick Kroll is guest-starring next week with a member of his vampire gang named “Count Rapula”. “300 years living in New York, son. I didn’t start rappin’ ‘til 1991.”

This is painfully apparent by the Aussie tagline being “April forecast...Hot AF”. I wondered why they were using such a cringey ~teen slang~ tag for a movie no teenager will be able to see.

Man, the diehard DCEU chuds are gonna love this shit. Is there any cross-training in it?

You heard the man, GOGGLE IT!

Ironically this movie received the highest classification possible in Australia (R18+). The distributor tried desperately to appeal it and this review makes it clear how desperate they’ll be for the dumb teenager audience.

I’m happy the AVC (and Takeout) staff are getting paid, but less happy that they’re still a package deal with the endless wokery of Jezebel, Deadspin, Splinter, and The Root. The “related articles” that keep popping up on here for those clowncar sites drive me bonkers.
