A little bit of a lot of things. Mainly sports, wrestling, tokusatsu, and video games. I'm not as good at Magic as I'd like to be (but who is?)

Hundred line is probably my goty but you’re on that gas if you think the water without any ice ass journalists that make up the vga contributors know what that is

the vgas are corpo dogshit that are minimum voted on by the most boring and artless people to ever live if not outright chosen by back door dealings so giving a shit about them at all is folly, but the way they redefined indie to just be fucking whatever really frosts my ass

Just heard re: some ICE agents who raided a Chicago taqueria, then went back to the same taqueria for lunch the following week and got confused when the owner kicked them out, and I realized "jesus these doofuses really do believe we're all living in a video game where the NPCs have no memory"

FFV is probably my favorite job-class final fantasy title because of just how busted jobs in that game feel. even the default ones have some wacky combo that can make them insanely good.

also it's one of the last atb based games where the atb actually pauses while attack animations play out. so, you know, the speed stat works as intended and fast characters get more turns...

yeah, some look at how limited FFV's customization looks on paper ("i can only bring one ability over?") but don't realize that a lot of them change your stats in a game where your stats don't increase on level up beyond hp/mp

it's closer to subclassing than you'd think at a glance

"Most Anticipated Game" as an award category tells you all you need to know about The Game Awards. It's a commercial masquerading as a celebration of creators.

getting a voxel engine running like this on the saturn of all consoles is devil magic
The attract loop for Amok, a Sega Saturn mech blast 'em up from 1996.

Developed by Lemon, published by Scavenger, and with music by Jesper Kyd.

This is a pretty damn cool game that uses voxels for its graphics rather than polygons, giving it a look that I more associate with Novalogic sims.

Now whenever a big new game comes out, besides just having to wait for a sale & for the patches to fix the bugs, you also have to wait for them to patch out the genAI that they "accidentally" put into the game.

we should do that
AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action
Advocates fear such settlements will “financially ruin” the AI industry.

One of the strangest aspects of aging that they don't warn you about is watching as history gets rewritten right in front of your face and people 20 years younger than you confidently tell you about something you lived through and get it completely wrong.

The idea that you can't give a bad score to a AAA game unless it sets your computer on fire is ridiculous. The review complains about derivative areas, bad story, poor balance, AI slop, and a company doing a lot of evil stuff these days. A 1/10 score seems justified to me.
I actually do go out of my way in my review to contextualise how Call of Duty's yearly release cycle and use of AI actually undermines and devalues the countless hours of hard work that humans put in at these companies, but go off, I guess?

Also, wanna say that Hogwarts Legacy part a bit louder?
As someone who works with a team who puts in a lot of time, effort, and perspective review into what we do.....

I'm extremely tired of the "take a personal stand reviews" we're seeing more and more of. Reviews are always opinions but the stuff we've seen from Hogwarts to ARC Raiders is @$%*

@thedrawplay.com You must be really amused to learn that Cam Skattebo was involved in an angle on Raw where he was pushing and shoving some wrestlers.

1st of all lmao

2nd, unless something has changed since I worked for Bux, ppl who work at locations inside of Targets/other stores don’t get the employee benefits (like health insurance) of ppl who work at regular locations.

that’s what this campaign is directing traffic to during the strike.
Beginning Monday, a Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate drink will be available exclusively at Starbucks cafés inside Target stores.

The chains are hoping the drink can drum up excitement from customers this holiday season.
