Nice to see an off-target shot in Brazil that didn’t lead to the death of a favela youth.

Since new characters ideally means a rebalance, then competitively it’s already likely to be a new game then. That’s fine, I’m more of a semi-casual player myself. And I’m reminded of FIFA/MADDEN sequels where the “new” games are minimal new mechanics (not always) and updated rosters. So I’ll be holding that as an…

I wonder what will happen if the base multiplayer mechanics are re-used from Smash 4, but with an updated roster, with updated costumes and new auxilary modes. Do we call it Smash 4.5, an enriched port, or a new game entirely?

Nothing for me. I guess I can follow through on my promise to replay Nier: Automata, and maybe grab that Witcher 3 DLC finally.

Must have been cash to players. Can’t buy hookers in Storrs.

Doesn’t some langauge have a word for feeling joy at others’ failure?

I believe the German word is “Saskatchewan.”

Thanks for writing this Mike, but my list is pretty much just “blow in the cartridge”.

That’s on the parents buying their wee ones Call of Duty, though, not the industry itself.

I really wanted to try beer when I was underage. Guess what my parents didn’t buy for me?

Beer.

I really wanted to see R-rated movies when I was young. My friends who had “cool” parents got to see them; I didn’t unless I snuck…

Why not treat M games like Alcohol? Can’t purchase them with or for a child under 17 and accounts found in violation are banned (At least until the user is 17). At the very least we’d get rid of some whiny kids in multiplayer.

Everyone can pee standing up. The difference lies in how wet your socks are at the end.

I needed this. Especially the fact that all I had to type was “get ‘em!” on Google, and there it was.

Way to kill two stones with one turd.

This is a major pet peeve of mine during the games. The entire woman’s alpine skiing broadcasts, mens snowboarding half-pipe, and woman’s snowboarding half-pipe is spent discussing 1 American in each event. If Vonn’s skiing...she’s all they discuss. If Schiffren is skiing she’s the topic. Same for Shaun White and…

He spent an entire run of another American talking about Lindsey Vonn’s run. So pretty par for the let’s only talk about one person unless someone from the US beats that other US person.

Yo, what are you talking about? She makes it all the way up to the blue line five out of six times, doesn’t fall down, SKIS BACKWARDS, and doesn’t degrade herself or her country with showboating theatrics. Just good, clean skiing. Give this woman the Gold medal for efficiency and self respect.

They are cousins though. And France is the home of Les Cousins Dangereux.

I always liked the theory that Jumpman was Mario’s dad, explaining not only the Kong age gap but also the differences in their behavior and Mario continuing to appear in games after Jumpman’s death. But Odyssey kinda put the knife to that one. Ah well, such is the way with crazy fan theories. :-)

I have spent the last 90 hours of my life not doing much but soaking in the media about my favorite sportsball team - all the “this is for grandpa” articles, all the cell phone videos of the locker room, just watched Jason Kelce gloriously fly out of his fucking gourd on national television. I’m asking my parents to…

The recruiting notes say that he possesses game-breaking speed on the perimeter. I think it’s safe to assume he got that from his mother considering how fast she noped the fuck out of his announcement.

She really dropped the ball by not yelling out “Later Gator!” as she walked off.
