Cursed winner of our neighborhood: a teenager in a blood spattered shirt with “D4VD” written on it.

Done! I let em grab handfuls and they were still polite as hell.

Hopefully they've resolved the issues with the repro boards in use.

That's unfortunate, but still, DO ONE NOW!

I have basically given up over the last 10 years and stocked only Harmony - whenever it shows up at Costco I snag a few to last me a while. I have never had more than a serving of the nicer stuff. Maybe with a few more years it'll continue to calm down.

My wife and I have precisely these plans when it hits for the rest of us - midday escape from the kids for the occasion. Pre-kids we had marketing perks and got to see Baby Driver early! Wright is a tradition in this household.

Still a bit stiff, but at least trending in the right direction at last.

Whoa! How much was it?

lol the light option isn’t working - it’s either dark or new or gtfo

Well done! I hear the collectibles are a commitment in that game.

KLEIN GETS THE WIN

FREDDIE FREEMAN HEROICS YEAH BUDDY

Seriously, my goodness. That was quality start material.

That last pitch was Klein's best. Absolute beast of a performance by someone used to throwing half the amount of pitches in a normal outing.

35 left on base and counting, lmao.

The record is 45 across 25 innings, set in 1974.

“Babe it’s 1 am why aren’t you in bed the children are going to wake up so early tomorrow”
“Sorry hun, me and the 157 most brain damaged friends I’ve met online are watching two baseball teams we don’t care that much about and the bits have gone on so long we can’t turn back now”

I nominate Max Muncy as our champion.

I kinda want one of these tbh. In Vewlix or Noir though.

Can we get a live skeet stream of consciousness thread like the old one you did on Twitter? I bet it'd be even funnier.

Would it have been better as a new Bayonetta? A new IP entirely?

I'm sure it's a great game, but all your feedback so far has basically indicated I should just marinate in NG2 Black and wait for 4 to go on sale.

Also having a blast with it, I think I'm up to 30 hours so far (with still only the Snake killed). It feels like Tsushima, mildly refined, with a brand new story. Which is basically all I wanted. And remember, we're still getting a Legends mode next year.

The Takezo fight was glorious.

Papaya Rules is making the championship chase suck ass, and they magically always favor Lando, so

Follow-up notes:

Is that the Evo Chamionship lanyard from 2016?

What’s with the Frasier collage?

You have the S-Tier MvC2 rug! I kept holding out for them to make a 3s one and I’ve been waiting years now. :(

Exactly! I'm so used to having to wake up at 6-7 AM to catch a race that the NA races ironically feel less accessible.

A benefit finally! I kinda take issue with the name of it - Kurosawa didn't use scratched film black & white as an aesthetic, he did it for practical reasons (cost of film stock). As soon as he could afford to use color, he did. "Noir" mode is what other games use and that feels more appropriate.

Instead of DNS, I would simply remember all the IP addresses that I care about.

This is me! After about 10 hours I finally did the Saito Training Fortress mission last night. I've barely set foot in Ishkiari despite every traveller telling me all about it, because I'm free wandering everywhere else. I'm all about the fox dens, bamboo, hot springs, altars, bounties, etc.

Playing Ghost of Yotei is like binging a crazy good backlogged TV show you've never seen. You explore for a bit, chat with NPCs, experience a few stories, bam suddenly it's 4 hours till you have to be up for work.

Congrats!
