I play the game and love all the dance emotes, but yeah, Fortnite is such a cultural juggernaut that they have both the capital and means (they had Thanos as a playable character, after all) to negotiate using signature dance moves from other artists

I hope this is the first of many.  If you’re going to make money off the culture, the people that create the culture should be rewarded

First pic is an army guy running Ogrebattle 64: person of lordly caliber on an emulator. This is a weird kind of meta.

Lol yeah, because the “Gamer Gate” folks are the types of people they want to give the ability to kill. 

also no Jesus Piece? Behemoth?

These are all great albums and I understand that quibbling about specifics is completely missing the point of these sorts of articles, but this seems to be mostly be a list of a very particular variety of metal. I think broadening this list and including bands like Haken, Omnium Gatherum or Rivers of Nihil would have…

This is completely insane.

This game looks so promising that I went ahead and broke a controller in it’s honor.

That’s how Stan would’ve wanted it.

Not sarcasm, he would’ve been extremely cool with it.

And that episode was only from 2009. They are still backwards on a lot of issues. I don’t even watch anymore since they’ve gone full-in on the anti-political correctness bandwagon. And IDK why “Cissies” got such good reviews from progressives, it read as critical of gender fluidity to me; Cartman was blatantly abusing…

Why do you get pissy when a critic doesn’t love something as much as you?

Square Enix never learns its lesson about announcing stuff too far out in advanced.

I wonder if now they’ll do an episode where they acknowledge many people still use the word “fag” as a homophobic slur.

It’s easy to say “what’s the big deal” when talking about Game & Watch fire attack in the abstract, but its operating in several real world contexts, including centuries of genocide, oppression, and ongoing discrimination against indigenous people. For just as long, stereotypes have been used to denigrate and deny…

They had already known to remove it from the 2002 game, and it would be obvious to anyone on the Nintendo of America side.

Thanks for reading. I actually heard about the story yesterday when I was listening to NPR while getting ready for work. I listen to NPR basically every weekday and donate to WNYC. They’ve actually interviewed me a few times about my work, too. I’m not out to get NPR.
