Ah, but see, this is the internet, where you’re not supposed to be excited about anything without disparaging something else on principle. Cool kids don’t care about anything, maaan.

I’m leaving the country before the end of the year and have no way of having anything shipped to me. I’ll be in a 3rd world country with nothing much else to do besides work and the gym. It’s either get it at launch or I don’t.

If PS5 didn't have backwards compatibility with PS4, I probably would've been fine waiting. But I have a backlog of games that I'm currently playing or waiting to play on better hardware without sounding like a jet engine. New PS5 games are just icing on the cake. This is actually my first day 1 preorder for a…

Because I want to play Spider-Man and Cyberpunk on release on the PS5 and it only took me about 10 minutes to pre-order

Zero interest in Demon Souls. They could give it out free and I wouldn’t play it. Less than zero interest actually, if that’s possible.

For me, it’s Ms. Marvel. Watching Kamala embiggen and do an elbow drop on those annoying Dreadbots never fails to make me smile. Really, they did a great job utilizing her stretchyness. 

The original demo was locked behind a $10-$15 magazine purchase.

“Sir, the commenters are revolting! There isn’t a SINGLE person that likes the updated layout!”

“Perfect! Let’s get started rolling this out to all the other sister sites.”

He may have only been on MST3K once, but it was one of the very best (“my-my-my-my...OH GOD!!!”).

I got it when it came out, played about 10 hours then promptly forgot about the game. It’s only been in the last two months that I returned to it and yeah, it’s not great. I think people see the veneer of Fallout: New Vegas and assume it’s great when it’s a pretty hollow game at best.

Cool story.

You almost had me with the Troma reference. But it’s kind of shallow, giving it just a little thought.

Troma does really well what they need to do well. Mostly, gross out practical effects and makeup. The films are competently shot and edited, not on a bunch of ends taped together.

This sounds more like Ed Wood.…

Really? Abby’s the one that kicks off this mess when she decides to club Joel to death after he and his brother SAVE HER LIFE? After Owen’s like ‘yoouuuu know what maybe this isn’t a good idea. They got a lot of people, my girl’s pregnant, I want him dead but maybe not at the potential cost of all the lives we care…

Yeah, this was largely my feeling. It was fine, I played it, then uninstalled it. Probably don’t remember much of it other than some of the major highlights like the opening sequence and the ending. 

I personally stopped playing these military shooters a while ago. Just seeing the US military idolized makes me angry. Afghans, Iraqis, Yemenis and Palestinians matter too and let’s not forget the victims from decades ago, the hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese and Japanese civilians blown to pieces or burned to…

Agreed.  I wonder if I would have liked it more if everybody WASN’T giving it sloppy blowjobs at the time.  All I could think of was how mediocre it was, while the entire world was losing their minds about it.

It would have been great released right after New Vegas. But in 2019 it’s (was) just, I dunno, i didn’t really feel anything at all playing it after the first hour or so. I slogged through and never really cared about the story or characters. I was glad when it was over. 

You nailed my feelings. It was ok. Pretty fun. And I’ll never play it again.
