Absolute anti-absolutist
"I don't like it and therefore it isn't good" is the laziest kind of opinion writing possible. I like the Eurogamer news feed, but this reminds me why I never seem to land on your editorial or review content.

Weaksauce nothingburger compared to a good old WWF live show from the late 90s

Why not both? 😆

Heads up that Costco sells niche "home edition" pinballs - stripped down to the minimum and lacking the lighting, gizmos, visuals and complexities that make modern pinball great. For the same price you can find used "standard" grade tables that are just a couple of years old.

That's the way to go out, literally on top. Congrats on a good run man!

They finally bust you for cheating with magnets or something? :D

Man here I thought it would have been something I played and I coulda bragged a bit. This table looks neat but the playfield cobblestone pattern looks like a bowl of gnocchi.

Which table?

"European style piazzas are only only good for 4-5 months a year."

Hard disagree. During the winter Montreal allows propane fire pits and standing heaters in various squares. Instant magic as family and friends gather round the fire to sip a beer while kids pelt one another with snowballs.

They should call this house the Zo-Loft because of the deep and inevitable depression it inspires.

Evidently, failure can be fun (if done right)...
November 15, 2025 at 7:53 PM
It's all relative. I have like 380 hours in Balatro, of which probably 85% was spent watching failure unfold.

CLE was dead in the water: deadline sellers and 4th lowest payroll in MLB somehow made the wild card. Does that beat 74 win 2024 Jays getting 2 outs from a ring? No. Do I think the US Baseball Writers' Association of America has a giant blind spot roughly the size and shape of a blue jay? Yes I do.

That's cool. Now do a piece on how everything Jobs and Ive designed after 1999 was straight out of the Dieter Rams years at Braun, right down to Braun's ET66 Calculator and T3 Pocket Radio (a dead ringer for the ring dial era iPod).

"It's like cosmetic horse armor for your house!"

It's been 20 years of this stuff. Plenty of time for a PhD student to look back and do a thesis on "From Azeroth to Oblivion: The Alpha and Omega of Microtransaction Controversy 2006-2026."

I think this is about BlizzCon tix starting at $250 for early bird and then $300 thereafter.

I don't disagree that this is a crazy amount to pay to cosplay and watch trailers.

Plus whatever Blizzard used to be, it ain't been that for a long time.

What’s turning out to be weirdly prophetic about 2001: A Space Odyssey is that when HAL insists “I’m sorry Dave, I’m afraid I can’t do that” it may be less about HAL acting out of self awareness and more that HAL is a dumb as bricks AI who can’t rationalize whatever it happens to be doing.

Absolutely. This is a young team. Ownership can make a perennial MLB dynasty happen right here in Toronto if they choose to build on what this fabulous group of guys have handed them on a platter.

Considering the Jays started the season with the universe assuming they had no chance at the World Series, I'd suggest your absolutist logic is tremendously and uniquely ill-suited to baseball.

"I’m pretty zen about this loss" is exactly how I feel about it.

4-26 with RISP over the last two games. That's a lot of offensive production for so few runs.

We pushed the rock to the top of the hill only to trip over the last pebble 22 times.

Screw Blake Snell -- LA got lucky.
