the shuttering of their competitive league tells you everything you need to know about the playability of OW/OW2. Going from 6 to 5 and basically calling an update a new game was the nail in the coffin for me. 

I’m just hoping they show that people living in the wasteland have actually *built things* instead of living in the same half bombed out buildings from 200 years ago. Fallout 1 Shady Sands was a hand built town, but somewhere between Fallout 2 and 3 (coughBethesdacough) everyone forgot how to construct something that… Read more

Love this. To this day, I still occasionally shoot the moons in my open world action games.

According to my brother in law, the only thing his kid wants from family this year is Robux. Sorry kid, my relatives rarely bought me videogames when I was growing up, and now I see why. He’s getting books and outdoor activities from me. (I’ll be buying myself videogames instead - I’m too far gone).

If it’s any consolation, Age of Calamity split-screen is a pretty fun way to spend some time with your kid :)

A few days ago I checked the scene after the anniversary patch and was disappointed to see it still out of sync. It’s a small thing but frustrating when you know it’s a post-release bug.

Super happy they went back and fixed it!

Pretty much. Fortnite is the biggest offender, but you didn’t mention it for some reason? The thought of shooting at a cartoon Banana while cosplaying as Alan Wake seems so discordant. Or Chun-Li sniping Ellen Ripley? It’s obnoxious and diminishes the original properties. Shoehorning in the cameos into MK11 actively… Read more

That picture and the randomness of that scene in that particular episode always get a laugh out of me.

Did someone say infinite Frinkiac loop gif?

Man, that sucks. EA’s Simpsons Game was fucking dreadful, I’d have loved another Hit and Run.

In most games I’d be like WHAT NO YOU ARE DISMANTLING THE FOUNDATIONS OF CINEMA Read more

Fuckin absolutely bonkers that this awful, stupid shit comes back up like this. I lurked KiA for a while just out of morbid curiosity and it really was a collection of some of the dumbest, most reactionary idiots around. I still remember when they treated Gamasutra (RIP that old name) and its press release section… Read more

We really do live in a time of diminished personal accountability.  “I’m sorry that he got hurt.”  He didn’t “get” hurt.  YOU HURT HIM.  

“Look guys, all I’m saying is, we can all be sure, none of us are infected.” Read more

Seriously some of the funniest shit I’ve seen on the internet.  They need to do a full on It’s Always Sunny Crossover with TLOU.

I’m glad that real science is still being done in this day and age.

“Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.”

Reminder that big companies don’t care about you as a worker/labor of any kind unless you’re part of the executive class, drinking $500 wine among your fellow shills. If you have the “dream” of moving up in the world as a low-class worker when it’s been expressed time and time again that connections are valued more… Read more
