What does it say about me that the instant I saw a comma I knew exactly what the next word would be?

You're dead on about the campaign though. The best part of that shit is how funny it is; it's The Room of FPS'. My buddies and I ran the campaign together and it was hilarious; I lost my fucking mind at "Giant Michael Rooker." Laughed so hard I couldn't breathe straight.

Fuckin' Temu-brand Control.

As a fan of Zombies I can say that, yes, the Zombies fandom is enjoying what BO6 and BO7 have put on offer so far.

However your opinion of Zombies' writing would clash heavily with the Zombies fandom. Because those things you don't like? The fans have loved it since, not just BO1, but World At War.

The world-building of Ghosts is so shit that The Federation might as well have been the good guys already.

Seriously, the US was building orbital death cannons. In the words of Yahtzee Croshaw, "...the US is outsourcing it's weapons development to fucking Megatron..."

Rebecca was one of the founders of Interplay and programmed & designed for some of the most influential games of my youth, notably Bard's Tale I & III and Wasteland. She will be missed.

Oh, then what the fuck was the committee smoking? Devil May Cry? Seriously?

This is somehow worse that Xenoblade 3 being snubbed for a best vocal performance nomination in 2022 so that way GoW could get two slots.

I see your vision Geoff and it fucking sucks.

I went to a baptist private school during middle school and all I got was trauma and a conviction that private schools are fucking trash.

My parents still despise public schools despite the fact that they were the only ones capable of helping me with my Autism. I hate it here.

Because it didn't come out in 2025? Seriously, what the fuck is this?
I guess Geoff has a certain "vision" of the industry but it sucks shit through a straw.

He’s right tho.

@secondwindgroup.com is a good one. They got a first hand taste of corpo dickery back when they worked for The Escapist and made their own path.

Me, the whole time: "God, I wish that was me being choked by Elle Fanning's giant thighs."

It's the Halo effect. Where it's just a fun game that knows how to keep people coming back. But everyone took the wrong lessons from it and gaming got worse as a result. So there's a large subset that just hate it because it exists.

In other words the real target should be lazy execs, not Fortnite.

Same, just checked it out. It's a great film, highly recommend.

No, Michael Rooker can just do that.

Yes. That's not anything special either, Michael Rooker can just do that irl.

I'm in a hybrid Adult/High School class and all the kids have these fucking shit Chromebooks and they all hate them. Mind you I'm in a class for computer repair so that's to be expected. But still.

Meanwhile the adults get the Technical Academys laptops and they're fairly up to date HP machines.

Call of Duty Black Ops 7 might be the funniest game in the franchise.

That is not a compliment.

"Komrade, meme is public property." "No need to steal. Is yours."

Someone will pay for forcing me to learn about this against my will.

Prime 2 and 3 should have gotten a re-release though because Prime 4 is shaping up to be more like a follow up to Prime 3 and Prime 1. Namely in the narrative choices.

Real talk, I don't think people would be so upset at about Metroid Prime 4 having NPCs that talk and accompany Samus if Nintendo had re-released Prime 2 and Prime 3.
Because that's the direction those games were heading in; especially Prime 3. A refresher on that would have been nice, Nintendo.

According to one of the previews I read, yes.

really a pretty embarrassing few fucking weeks for Bluesky content moderation and what passes for a comms team

Live Absolute Batman Reaction

Why did you make me see this???

Now you have my attention...

I swear to god dude, I thought this was a shitpost.

4 frame comics. a man with a red cap says to Stephie : nazis were obviously left-wing. it's in the name: national socialism. leftists were always the real fascists. stephie replies : the party's name was specifically chosen in 1920 to lure people away from socialism by using its rhetoric and to channel people's economic distress into a racialist, antisemitic, anti-democratic vision of the state that upheld the capitalist status quo.* source : *r.j. evans: the coming of the third reich, 2005 the third frame shows a nazi parade. text reads : after taking control of the party in 1921, hitler spent a whole decade purging the party of its left-leaning figures. one of the first things he did after taking power was to send left-wing politicians and union leaders into concentra- tion camps or murder them.* source : *holocaust encyclopedia : "nazi terror begins" in the last frame, stephie leans towards the man and says : hitler was a white nationalist famously opposed to socialists. the fact that the word "socialism" was in his party's name isn't any weirder than "republicans" supporting a president who rules like a king.

"Leftists are the real fascists!"

I was watching the Fortnite/Simpsons shorts and it dawned on me. I have zero goddamn clue what the actual story of Fortnite is despite how often I play it and how many of the quests I do for the Battlepass XP.

Is this how normal COD fans feel about COD Zombies? Oh god, I feel bad for them now.

Edelgards fate in that makes her death in Azure Moon seem like a happy ending by comparison.

Which leads to a question, why would they want to be charmed by him?
