One of them embraces uncanny valley in a good way.

The other one involves Sonic teeth.

Pikachu looks good

I actually liked Jim Carrey’s Robotnik, he really does remind me of Eggman in the genesis Sonic games, the OVA series (yeah, I watched it way back) and the sonic mania shorts.

Overdosing on awesome after watching Endgame and the Battle of Winterfell back to back?

Do they make a version that screams in pain with each keypress?

OMG, who hurt you?

You could always turn the lights off and add black keycaps or buy the kira stealth, this is exactly what you want but full alu and more expensive (https://kono.store/products/kira-stealth-rgb-metal-mechanical-keyboard)

There are a million ways to save money. Not buying lottery tickets is no better or worse than most of them. You can save money not buying your lunch. Or coffee. Or going to a matinee. Not taking a vacation. Clipping coupons.

My old man used to playfully chide my neighbor for buying scratchies. Used to always say, “The lottery is a tax on people bad at math!”

SHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

The Moon and the Prince, Everlasting Love, and of course, Lonely Rolling Star. Best franchise songs!

My kingdom for a modern Katamari game with a rock solid frame rate and the inspired design of the originals. Or just a hi-res remake of 1&2 with a rock solid frame rate.

Dang, it’s a bummer none of the non-map assets are present. That’s what I want to explore, are all of the little scenes the devs created with small bears worshiping milk jugs, and cat parades.

Read A Paradise Built in Hell. People don’t turn into psychopath loners during a disaster. The structures of our fucked up society keep us apart and alienate us and make us selfish out of fear of precarity, but the second it becomes clear that the tornado or hurricane or earthquake or forest fire has cut us off from…

It’s not a “these days” thing, it’s a really common trope and has been for a very long time. This is to the point where Shaun of the dead referenced how common an idea it was in 2004, with the “we’re not using the ‘Z’ word!” exchange. I assume it’s because it comes off as silly or childish to the writers to reference…

The glut of post-apocalyptic fiction in pop culture at large and video games in particular has led to a set of beliefs and tropes that have settled into the bones of these stories: A moral nihilism that posits compassion as weakness, that the ends justify the means, that there is a thin line protecting us from them…

Yeah I get what you’re saying... If we DID actually have the dead rising, we’d just be like “oh look, zombies, let’s grab something to hit them in the head with”.

So they can pretend to be more creative than they are.

Why are writers these days so obsessed with not referencing their zombies as what they are? We all know they’re zombies, the writers know they’re zombies, what’s the point? I always get the impression that the outbreak happened in some ultra-weird parallel world that never developed zombie movies - these people see…

Is this a review of a videogame, or a review on the standard AAA post apocalyptic game template? It seems to me this piece focuses more on criticizing the tropes it uses than in the game itself.
