I remember my friend showing me Resident Evil 3: Nemesis and specifically NOT warning me about this part to see my reaction. Needless to say my timbers were shivered.

8 hours into Cyberpunk (PS5).
The plot thickens. Keanu angle is cool. Mechanics are fun. Awesome dialogue.
There’s definitely some jank in this game. (No big deal.) It makes me wonder how bad this was when it first dropped.
I feel like I still have so much to see and do.

What’s your favorite example of “the book was better.” For me, it’s I Am Legend. The book was incredibly moving and had a lasting impact on me. The movie was… yikes.

as the homo sapien crushes pigment with water on the cave floor, then presses his hand to the stone and spreads the ink across its surface, marking the cave for thousands of years — he thinks “I can’t wait till this can be done with a.i.”

Very saddened to hear Kazuki Motoyama recently passed away. He was the man behind Kodansha’s Super Mario manga that covered a lot of Mario’s adventures, including spinoff games. I’m hoping the series gets a reprint one day.

It blows my mind how little of Rick Remender’s catalog has been adapted in TV/movies. I’d love to see a Black Science tv show and a Tokyo Ghost movie.
