I played the demo! I think I’d be 100% on board if I weren’t in my mid-30s with a toddler :/. One of my coworkers blasted through it, and it sounds like an amazing game, but I’ve pretty much resigned myself to never having time to play it.

Ha, well, my spouse can’t whistle, so we’ll have to figure something else out. My spouse has absolute pitch, and we suspect that our kiddo does, so maybe we’ll put together a perfectly tuned song which I will totally suck at.

Haven’t even had time to watch the whole thing yet and yet I knew as soon as I saw it that yes, Tim has the correct take: It just doesn’t get better than Celeste!

This reminds me of the stellar clay Mario 64 level recreations from this article over on AV Club: https://news.avclub.com/these-gorgeous-clay-recreations-of-mario-64-levels-are-1828106936

I’m not one of the original tweeters, but I did track down a copy and it’s just incredible. This and the other hacks they had to…

I’ll offer an addendum that one should absolutely give Shin Godzilla a shot after watching Evangelion. There’s a lot of NGE in there in a way that I absolutely adore.

I thought I was the only one. I’ve had a bunch of piercings, shots, and worked on a research project where I had to handle people parts (My advisor wouldn’t even come into the room when I was working because he couldn’t handle it) but by god as soon as I glance at a test tube or ...blood donation... sack... with my…

The beauty of CE is that Toru Iwatani, the designer of the original game, was the designer/supervisor on the project. It’s absolutely mindblowing to me how much thought and care he put into substantively changing the design of the original to actually do something novel with a game that is so iconic that it’s…

I try to stay positive, but CE DX 2 is the most disappointing game I have ever played, don’t @ me (or do, it’s ok, I just really really really don’t like it).

You done mighty good here Tim. Mighty good.

Good luck and good luck! I’m sure you’ve already reviewed plenty of literature on how other areas have done it, but aside from the initial lack of stock, Colorado had a seemingly smooth and successful implementation when we legalized it, and it was applied to several smaller more rural and mountainous areas. There are…

I adore Mikado. It’s surprisingly huge and not too busy most of the time. I royally suck at Pop’n Music, but it was empty enough whenever I would visit that I could get lots of good practice in without looking like an utter doofus in front of a lot of people.

Spectacular bit of reporting, thank you for preserving this corner of gaming history!

Only tangentially related, but: Fun MK fact, super amazing director of Punisher: War Zone Lexi Alexander played Kitana in the Mortal Kombat: Live Tour in 1995 and 1996.

Ha, same. My spouse and I spent two consecutive summers in Japan and Coco was on our short list of places we’d go where we could order easily enough that we wouldn’t have to subject the staff to much of our terrible Japanese. Not to say we didn’t branch out food-wise a lot, but sometimes we’d just wimp out and go…

Definitely! One last tiny comment expressing extreme gratitude since it seems like you maybe followed me. I’ve been in the grays for *checks watch* cheeeeee-rist, just under a decade since the star system was phased out and it’s really genuinely lovely and validating to be back.

Truly, it’s an honor just seeing it on the list. I know it’s junk, but it’s junk that holds a special place in my heart. I definitely need to keep your top picks in mind for my next visit, I tend to get curry blinders on when I’m lucky enough to be in the country.

Oof, I gotta say, I’m a CoCoIchi all day every day kind of guy. 300 grams rice, spice level 3, baby, you got yourself a stew going.

So my one pro tip for Blue Apron if you like it but aren’t, like, in love with it is to just re-up on a rolling schedule that aligns with their attempts to woo you back in the service with promotions. My spouse and I got kicked off with a few free meals via referral from my Dad but weren’t so nuts about it that we…

That’s delightful. My kiddo is just under 2 and I can’t wait to eventually work MST into the rotation. Some of my happiest childhood memories are from staying up late to watch it with my mom.

Eh, if it were mindblowing maybe, but it’s a stripped down super cheap projector which does pretty much what it says on the tin so I’d have little to add. And I don’t think Anker is hurting for favorable reviews. But regardless as it stands they’re kinda sorta not really totally kosher by FTC standards, and I’d prefer…
