What the actual fuck is wrong with Sony?

Throw some Veruca Salt in there, too!

It worked for the McElroys, why not GB?

"Hey what the fuck" is actually the correct response to season 2.

Is this just how it is now? If a game isn't an immediate, massive success, you're just completely fucked? Also, do these companies simply not budget for anything past the first month-ish post-release?

1st party Nintendo doesn't appeal to everyone, Xbox is effectively dead, and PC still scares a lot of people. Sony, despite themselves, essentially tripped into a monopoly on AAA console games and the PS5 is the only viable option for the majority.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

We ever gonna get another XCOM?

Lotta great rec here, but have you considered...

Stranger Things S5 has the most golden/silver age comics ass dialogue I've heard in a show maybe ever. It's universally awful...and yet, somehow, it still mostly works.

No one has, anyone whos actually good with Spidey only plays comp. Also, if you haven't checked out the 18v18 mode, it's my new go-to mode. It's SO much fun.

I ditched Premiere for Vegas like a decade ago, but I'm learning Resolve for work. It's intimidating at first, but it's crazy how good it is, especially being free.

Because Toei and Bandai are perverts?

Korn/Zombie show in like '01ish, went to the bathroom after the opener and very nearly, physically, ran into Rob Zombie. He was coming out, I was going in. He was in full concert getup and like 7 feet tall. Both of us just stood there for a sec, nodded to each other, and went about our business.

Get a router for sure, just not from your ISP if you can help it, the ones they give out are almost always terrible. It's totally worth it to do a little research and spend the extra money get something even one step up from the crap ISPs give out.

I hadn't beaten it when I posted this and...I still enjoyed it and don't regret the praise but, man, Prime 4 has a lot of problems...like, a LOT of problems.

When it's good, it nears the peaks of Prime 1...when it's not, it's handily the weakest of the entire Metroid series (not just the Primes).

It's legitimately insane that Nintendo ever tried to give the job to ANYONE else, but...Prime 4 is Retro proving that not only do they still got the sauce, but haven't lost a single fucking step in the 18 years since Prime 3 and have only gotten better at making these.

GOTY, without question.

Reposts on this are appreciated, BTW. There is no marketing budget.

Save 15% on Possessor(s) on Steam Possessor(s) is a fast-paced action side scroller with combat inspired by platform fighters, a story told through dangerous characters, set in a deep interconnected world ready for exploration.

Y'all should check Possesor(s) when you get the chance, Heart Machine's new game. One of the best metroidvanias of year, def shouldn't sleep on it.

I bought a big box of nutragrain bars...completely forgetting that they're gross and I hate them.

Friggin NERDS!
(You both look awesome)

Agreed, Glen...agreed.

I'm done with this planet, bring the meteors or Galactus or whatever, it's over, we're done.

When Absolum is firing on all cylinders, it's one of the most exhilarating beat-em-ups I've ever played.

When it's not, which is a little too often, it feels like it's fucking you over on purpose and makes me want to throw a controller across the room.

Hey, so....Silent Hill f is real good....up until it starts pulling cheap horror cliches and TERRIBLE insta-death chase sequences.

Alien: Earth is easily the best thing in the series since Aliens and exactly the kind of wacko, bonkers shit I want from the franchise.

More batshit originality, less shameless callback jerkoff (*cough*Rolumus*cough*).

You can hit X/Square/right click on an item to mark it as junk from a dropdown, rather than using the hotkey, to work around the junk bug.

Happy Birthday Scout!!!!!

Happy 30th Anniversary to, unironically, one of my all time favorite movies!
