NEW VIDEO!

With the massive popularity of the Sakura Wars series, it was only a matter of time before it made its way to the big screen. The movie is also a surprisingly significant addition to the series canon!

... But is it any good?

Not gonna rubberneck Sessler anymore after this, he's really just a bitter old man mad at The Kids, but 'jrpgs were big in christian households' is a level of delusional that should actually get you committed

Christians were so convinced Pokemon was evil the pope had to publicly say it's not

Semi-related, a funny true fact is how Victor Ireland was a devout Jehovah’s Witness and, besides adding 8th grader sex jokes and jacking up difficulty, made absolutely sure not to ever say “demon” in any Working Designs game

There’s an old Usenet post of his calling SMT “evil”
current status:

making up a parallel world where JRPGs are right wing media and Christian households didn't find them objectionable

It's another Breath of Fire Saturday, and we're finally out of the childhood arc in BOF3! It's also Nina Day (2/7), so stop by and come celebrate her day before we replace her with Momo at our earliest convenience!

God damn it is undeniable how many people just outright hate AI. I don’t think any technology in history has ever revolted so many people in such a public and prominent way
If there is one thing Chance The Rapper fans love it’s bare metal compute. Absolutely perfect market. Just check out how enthusiastic his fans are! They love it and they’re ready to move their cloud infrastructure.

honestly even if you assume people are more invested in consumption, the economy has made it increasingly difficult to consume anything, and if the next thing on the list is justice, then I that's that, I suppose
This is bleak: Jes Staley, currently CEO of Barclays, reassuring Epstein that popular revolt against financial elites is unlikely because capitalism and pop culture have defanged social movements, leaving people more invested in consumption than justice.

J.D. Vance was booed so badly at the Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony that even the announcers commented on it.

“There is the Vice President J.D. Vance and his wife Usha—OOP, those are not… uh… those are a lot of boos for him. Whistling, jeering, some applause.”

Just gonna say since we're already talking about unionizing game writers: hey, maybe let us localizers in on those talks, too, because it's pretty fucking rough out there, even in AAA. I'd probably have three times as many credits if we were unionized and I'm one of the lucky ones with any at all.

If you are baffled by why the jury refused to convict the Palestine Action defendants, it's because – unlike them – you didn't hear the actual evidence. You heard what the media wanted you to know.

Here, I explain what the jury learnt from the trial: jonathancook.substack.com/p/barristers...
Barrister's powerful speech at Filton Trial reminds jury of its right to defy judge
Starmer and the media need convictions to justify Palestine Action's proscription as a terrorist group. Rajiv Menon KC spells out to the jury why it is a vital last defence against government tyranny

kinda crazy that Sega seems to be the jp company most (perhaps too) concerned with how they are perceived globally and then just puts out that shit saying 'we knowingly hired a sexual predator, him being a sexual predator got him the job'

I know that they will always do the cruelest thing and the most racist thing, but the extent to which these particular fuckers will also do the stupidest thing.

Fire up the phones. Make every fucking member of the GOP own this.
