Well, Sega has embraced a yearly release schedule for the series, so the company probably has something else this year (possibly a Sonic Frontiers follow-up).

I got in on a very early price drop to $30, and have been selective on DLC (just Pac-Man so far). I don’t know if DLC was the dealbreaker for anyone, but I think there‘s probably a lot of crossover between people that like Mario and like Sonic and either just got a Kart racer or know they can wait.

January and February are both awful months. Just bleak and miserable overall.

Releasing Sonic Racing CrossWorlds the same year as Mario Kart World was definitely a case of bad timing. I hope the game finds more of an audience over time, though. I don’t think it’s as good as Mario Kart, but it’s probably the best Sonic racing game ever. The developers did a nice job with it.

Happy birthday to Mrs. Gwent Champ!

Yup. 100%. Matt realized a long time ago that the money is on the other side, and all of this is just a show to him. The man acted like Biden requesting that Twitter follow its own TOS was the biggest scandal since Watergate. This is just wrestling to him and he’s willing to be the heel.

This is the best praise I could have heard.

Every person in the files deserves to be hounded with questions by journalists until the end of time. JK Rowling has spent years tormenting the Trans community, and yet she was extending an invitation to the premiere of the Harry Potter Broadway show. You don’t think that alone is a story, Matt?

Matt Taibbi is not “bored.” He just knows that this is all very bad for the only people left that care about what he has to say. So he’s actively trying to downplay all this because it’s in his personal interest to do so. None of this is surprising though, as he’s been a hack for a very long time.

The richest and most powerful people on Earth, from world leaders, to billionaires, all seemed to be desperate to be best friends with a convicted pedophile and child trafficker. At worst, they were participants, at best, willing to overlook his crimes. But “yawn, boring,” right Matt?

I don’t think she has any intention of running right now. She’s become an incredibly effective politician and I think she knows she can continue to grow in her current role. I’m also less convinced than you are that Harris plans on running again.

First person I was gonna mention, but I’m sure there were others.

It’s my favorite of the prequels by a mile. Duel of the Fates, both the track and the overall sequence itself, has to be one of the best scenes in all of Star Wars. Just friggin’ wonderful. And the Podrace is still just amazing. Love the Gungan City, too.

I like The Phantom Menace more than probably any Star Wars fan ever, and I still think it’s one of the weirdest decisions they made. Maul should have been a recurring antagonist throughout the whole prequel trilogy. And it’s hilarious that the first thing the cartoons did was undo that death.

Brown Eagle has landed.

A whole bunch of Vulpix in Pokemon Go

A Shiny Kantonian Ninetales is registered to the Pokédex

Cleaned up nicely on Vulpix Community Day! Always really liked Shiny Kantonian Ninetales, so happy to finally add that one to the collection!

I think it all comes down to the contract. Many/most will have fine print that says the writer or creator retains full ownership of their creation.

Cackling. 😂

Yakuza 0 cover art edited to feature Fresh Prince Carlton as Majima and Will Smith as Kiryu

Was looking through my steam library to see what I need to add to the backlog and forgot I changed Yakuza 0's cover art to this

Will yells at Carlton because the BLT doesn’t have any bacon, only to find out that the fine print reads “bread, lettuce, and tomato.”

Just needs bread, lettuce, and tomato.

Dang. Looks good, dude!

Yeah. I think a double pack or even individual releases would be an easy win. Plus, that’s something they can slide into fall to keep supporting Switch 1, just like they did with the Galaxy two-pack last year. But we’ll see if it actually happens!

I wouldn’t be surprised if we got some kind of remake or ports this year. Nothing too crazy, but something to help fill the void.

100%. Trump is basically Cobra Commander, and when he’s gone there’s going to be the exact same infighting you’d see from Cobra’s distinct sects.

Skip the mustard, onion, and cucumber. I like thin sliced cucumber on a cold sub, but seems out of place on a burger. Ketchup and mayo is a divine combination, but the greatest “condiment” to put on a burger is egg yoke.

Happy birthday, man! All about the age you live and feel.

It’s really cool how Game Freak used these guys as the basis for Mega Starmie. That was really inspired.

Oh yeah. Give me Flint, Cesspool, and a Toxo-Viper that has some alternate parts to make him into Toxo-Zombie!

I think Hasbro is gonna do any character the market will embrace! I’m just excited that we’re finally getting some ‘90s guys. I adore Ninja Force and I’m desperate to see some Eco Warriors. Very happy they’re doing Overkill too, because I had him as a kid (loved the BATs).

I am so excited for that Zartan. They crushed it!
