Out of nearly 100 qrts, there was EXACTLY one that rightfully called out this article as clickbait and provided a contextual screenshot of what they actually meant

This isn't Gen AI, nor is it a misinformed executive. It's the same team that weathered the CGI boom saying they're ready for round two

Such a glorious game!!!

Destroy the hidden underground laboratory of he mad scientists!! BIONIC COMMANDO A hero is imprisoned behind enemy lines! Captured and held in a hidden fortress by the Imperial Army, Super Joe's situation seems desperate. Between him and any possibility of rescue lies an army of soldiers and paratroopers, an arsenal of weapons, and a maze of secrets. You are his only hope. Along the way you must collect information from soldiers who have penetrated the lines ahead of you. Weapons will be won or lost during combat, and choosing the right stage to attack might bring you closer to Super Joe, while choosing the wrong stage can mean the end! This then is your mission. Armed with a wire grappling device called Bionic Arm, you must go to a place from which no "moral" has ever returned and discover the secret of a plot code named "Albatros."

ENTER THE ENEMY HEADQUARTERS!! CRUSH!! Essential to your mission is the mastery of the bionic arm -- a strong wire that shoots out and attached to walls or ledges with a grappling hook, allowing you to scale them or swing across chasms. Why? Because your bionics won't allow you to jump. CONTROL THE WIRE AND ADVANCE FURTHER!!

ENEMY BASE 1 -OUTSIDE In Level One you launch into your mission by scaling the walls of a desert fortress. Bounding upward, swinging by the thread of your Bionic Arm, you find two doors. Enter one and collect information. Only then can you enter die second door, which leads to a hidden base deep underground. Since you can't jump, you must luam to ust your Bionic Arm in many ptacos if you are to succeed in your mission to locate and rescue Super Joe. At first, plan your moves. You will find that the Bionic Arm has a few limitations. For instance, it Can't be used to climb down. In the correspondence rooms of each stage, you contact fellow agents for Important data, and you can also listen in on enemy communications by tapping in on their lines. Also, they might come after you for this. If you got the messaga, this door will open. Remember, you can only reach certain stages by completing previous ||| stages, so look and go fc everywhere! Go to the far right and attach your Bionic Arm to the ledge above. A soldier will come out firing, but you can swing up behind him, crouch and shoot. Your first objective ts to find and secure a potent medicine that allows 1 j you to continue when your energy fs hea'riy gone. Without this miracle formula, you only have one life to live. But medicine is not all you'll find. Inside various buildings you'll discover friendly agents who have classified information to share with you. ENEMY BASE 1 -INSIDE Once inside, you'll find a subterranean world of shafts cut into the rock. Close by is an elevator to make your mission easier, but don't rely on it too much. Search the secret base for its vulnerable power core which you must destroy. Make sure you have picked up a message before you leave. You'll have to pass through here and fight off a relentless army to reach the core of the base. Shoot your grappling hook into the ceiling, climb up, then blast the electric barrier.

In this engagement you must storm the beach and head for the end bunker. Swing your Bionic Arm like a mace and watch the enemy fall. Colloct more energy at the mark found here. Keep a sharp lookout for grenades. If you stay on your toes, this stage should not be too difficult. The at¬ tacking soldiers are slowed down by the sand, and your Bionic Arm— swinging about like a sickle through the grass— has a good long range to mow them down. But don't let the ease of this mission fool you. At stake here is the Eagle-shaped mark, which adds to your energy level like the bullets you get for defeating enemies. Back in the torturous desert, the mission con¬ tinues and the enemy is fiercer than ever. Danger may appear in other forms, too, so beware of the cliffs! An exploding granad* can seriously ruin your day, not to mention your face. Stand dear! Once you have defeated the final enemy of a stage you will receive a CONTINUE. The continue is like having an extra life, and that just might make the difference on your mission. On this stage you must enter an underground passage in search of a protective helmet that wards off bullets. Don't be surprised to find heavy opposition along the way. Use the helmet end ottnr devices throughout the game. The helmet deflects dues enemy builnts. Not bad. This is a special stage, but like many areas of the game you can only reach it if you have been somewhere else before. Be thorough in your search of every stage.

Bionic Commando gets a kickass double-page spread that's made up of a locseup on the north american box art, then goes into level by level detail of the game

That teal & orange color grading trend got so ridiculous that I saw a horror movie from the early or mid-'10s where the Black dude in the main cast almost looked like a Smurf in most of the shots of the movie. That's not "style," that's just mad weird.

two characters talking, colors look like someone used teal and orange crayons on a black and white newspaper photo.

man in a Santa cap, with Feliz Navidad tattoos on his forearms is ready to fight while a woman is a hostage in the background. Again, characters and much of the background are heavily tinted teal and orange.

Missed the start of #FrightClub #SantaJaws, just want to point out what won me over on that movie early on. That part at the beginning (not trying to spoil it) cranks up the Teal/Orange digital coloring and ditches it after this part is over.

The year is running low on Sundays! Funnies away!

He should be, but they're different toy lines working in different scales. Jakks is around 5-inch tall, 52Toys is around 4-inch scale.

Storm Collectibles made toys of SoR4 Axel and Adam and will have a Final Fight line in the same scale, so that Haggar will probably be bigger than their own Axel.

52Toys Haggar, Jakks Axel Stone, Jakks Joe Musashi, 52Toys Captain Commando

52Toys Haggar, Jakks Altered Beast Werewolf, 52Toys Captain Commando

Jakks Sega figures are a larger scale, but the Altered Beast Werewolf isn't a giant compared to the others, so it accidentally fits with the 52Toys Capcom figures.

WOOOSH #animation #wip #Maccadam

Because it actually works?

Castlevania – Developer Commentary (2018) - shmuplations.com The development of the three Famicom Castlevania games has long been shrouded in mystery. Recently, a developer who was mentored by Castlevania director/creator/programmer Hitoshi Akamatsu in the 90s ...

I think a lot about Hitoshi Akamatsu describing Castlevania (NES) as "cinematic", a word that kind of gets overused when talking about modern games, but it's true here.

If you've never seen Big Lebowski why not watch it though silly osmosis?

And if you have seen it but have zero recollection (like me) it's a real fun refresher!

because everything is designed to suck as much as they can get away with right now, and also everything looks the same, people want tech with aesthetics

The way this page is set up sells how panic feels, one moment of hell almost running side-by-side with the next moment. Damn, that's comic magic!

A sprite edit combining a sprite of Sigma's head on top of a body in a white suit with four mechanical limbs extending in different directions. For some reason I don't think there was a lot of Dr. Octopus sprites from older Spider-Man games. Not sure why that is, he seemed like a villain I saw a lot.

One of my professors was the designers of the Scarlet Spider.

When the video games offered that costume option, my professor was never informed, despite being owed royalties. He had to chase Marvel down.

He died the same year Scarlet Spider was in Spider-Verse. They had to crowdfund his funeral.

That's part of the problem of dealing with it in the first place. AI is bullshit, and once you catch somebody using it, you can't 100% know where and when their bullshit stops. And is it possible to get peoples' trust after that?

At David’s and decided to draw my favorite Adventure Time character that isn’t Ice King.

Figma Samus in the driving snow

I’ve been in a Metroid mood lately, so I took some photos of my old Samus figure out in the snow today. This might be my favourite shot I’ve taken in a long time! #toyphoto

Notice anything... awry?
