Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound Review - A Razor-Sharp Retro Platformer | TechRaptor Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound is a speedy 2D platformer with intense fights, a good bit of challenge, and plenty of blood.

I thoroughly enjoyed Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound by @thegamekitchen.com and @dotemu.bsky.social, which is a must-play for fans of 2D platformers. Gotta say, fans of Ninja Gaiden are having a wonderful year, and now itโ€™s even better! Check out my review below!

VICE's owner Savage Ventures has requested the removal of my Collective Shout articles. This is due to concerns about the controversial subject matterโ€”not journalistic complaints

Effective immediately, I will no longer contribute to Waypoint. I suggest letting VICE's owner know if this upsets you

Feel like I remember a very vocal, worryingly large, group of people that were pretty happy that Xbox was buying Activision Blizzard.

Wonder how they feel now that this inevitable news has finally come.

i am far too stupid to be weighing in on this but one thing i would stress is that gaming mediaโ€™s collapse wasnโ€™t an inevitable fact of life. itโ€™s the result of very stupid people making decisions they could have just as easily not made

What's up with this growing sentiment that people should just shut up and watch a show through before talking about it? Online communities are dumb, etc

Isn't the appeal of some shows to sit around with friends and debate all your dumbass ideas every week?

There is a real, genuine 1st Amendment crisis in the United States right now.

The government is openly retaliating against anyone with a viewpoint it doesn't like: Pro-Palestinian protesters, law schools teaching Black History, pro-immigration public service loan forgiveness seekers.

So many can see the obvious coup and absolute power grabs by the executive branch of government.

But, other than harping on the price of eggs, not much has changed for the daily lives of your average person

I hope it's not too late, but there are still idiots that say climate change isn't real, so

Realizing that democrats and the left are running into the same issue they did with the messaging on Global Warming. The apocalyptic language was obviously ineffective as everyday people didn't see anything day to day. Even if it was right.

Project 2025, DOGE - the same thing is happening now.

Renaming it Gulf of America may be the most perfect encapsulation of the times we live in.

America is a gulf. A gulf of morals. A gulf of intellectual interest. Of wealth. Of empathy.

We are just as divided as we seem to be bereft of the above, huge chasms all that's left of what's ripped away

See how long it lasts when it's obviously not s core value or understanding. Big difference between motivations to do something great and protecting an asset. They'll always play catch up

Plus the awful dilution for the sake of money will make it worse in time anyway
