going live at the top of the hour! join us for LIFE OF BLACK TIGER

IDEA: movie where a person is pissed off at their friends for killing a monster that was attacking them because they swear the monster was a metaphor for their generational trauma and now they'll never get over it

Pole to Win, AI to Lose

an uncle who just vaguely knew i liked video games bought me bug's life and antz when i did not own a GBC and had never seen a bug's life. he also bought me traitor's gate on three separate occasions and our computer couldn't run it

Cinematic parallels in Zeta Gundam.

absolutely aspirational hater

The fourth and final episode of our 'Silent Hill: Homecoming' playthrough is up now on YouTube! Watch as our panel is confounded by the game's final gauntlet of twists, tortured logic, and terrible endings; followed by nearly a full hour (!) of our "final thoughts." www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpA4...

wow, and to think there are already two episodes featuring @dochospital.bsky.social, who will be my esteemed guest on the upcoming musou episode, and one such episode is even linked right here wethoughtaboutgames.tumblr.com/post/1761366...

Are you talking about We Thought About Games, the podcast from Bad Game Hall of Fame co-host @beamsplashx.wethoughtaboutgames.com at wethoughtaboutgames.com/ ?

Incidentally, @beamsplashx.wethoughtaboutgames.com and I talked for *four consecutive hours* about the entire mainline series and hardly scratched the surface of how much the series has evolved. Look forward to that episode of We Thought About Games.

damn maybe my aside about reviewers coming around on musou games in the podcast wasn't as premature as i thought

it's called humility, simon

IDEA: novel sold as alt-history with a premise like "what if japan won world war 2?" but everything goes the same, then it jumps five days ahead, a character says "phew, that was close, we almost lost world war 2!" and it immediately ends

only a truly dear friend could get away with tricking an entire call into thinking they were going to watch Versus, only for us to watch something this bad it's almost refreshing in the era of modern conservatism to see a film that reflects bush-era conservatism, in that it sucks but also feels old

it is the year exteen exty ex outlaws are in-lawed are YOU ready for thanksgiving dinner??

i can't help but envy people who experience a piece of media and it changes their life. i really gotta think hard about something to even understand just how much i like it

went to colombia and got my bogotás bintedá

in japan, it's known as Zelda no Nutnovember

i know why they did this. they dont want us to know where crime came from

it's like they always say: women are the glue

1 like = i get one like

now no DRM can get in the way of you seeing the most important examination message in the series

band puts out an album where i only like 2/5 of the songs instead of half of them and somehow my first instinct is to think "damn these guys are washed"

crossover promotion where you can play NES games against the people playing NES games in street fighter 6

real shame that they never took the opportunity to rebrand as THE gamepad used in the oceangate submarine

here's my birthday gift to everyone- a remake of my classic twitter post that took less time than trying to find it again

happy 37th birthday to me, the sex gamer

ah yes, Sayonara Wild Hearts, not to be confused with Wild Hearts S, where the S is of course short for Sayonara, because koei was saying goodbye to EA as publishers

y'know, one of the weirdest things to me is how memed on bump combat is, when every other action-RPG of the era has combat that's way, way slower and more awkward. give me one million bumps over charging up attacks in secret of mana any day

a bit of my reading for class just referred to IBM as "her" for one sentence and now i can't get the phrase "i bet you thought the corporation in this story was a man" out of my head

telling someone to stop causing drama by being dramatic while telling their opposite to stop causing arithme by being arithmetic

that flash movie came up on a podcast and i'm thinking again about how corporatized filmmaking's biggest flops are so much stranger than any auteur-driven singular vision, especially because the weirdness actually does not mean anything (other than running out of money for reshoots and time for VFX)

in an elvira crossover with scooby-doo, she'd look at velma and say "wow, nice sweater", then see some little dogs and immediately follow with "puppies!"

i think all the time about how xenoblade x generated plenty of discourse as a wii u exclusive, then less as a potential switch release, then almost nothing as an actual switch release

it feels weird to hear this generate buzz for a future handheld when it's still running at 100 watts the upcoming GPD win 5's cooling/charging requires the use of an external battery pack (to the point that it feels farcical to put it alongside real handhelds) and they're running that at 65 watts

has there even been a character who does the thing of appearing at the end of the story arc and telling the audience "i could've actually solved it the whole time" who later finally does something and totally fucking sucks

ME WHEN A GAME SAYS IT INVOLVES PUZZLE-SOLVING: ugh i don't play games for this ME WHEN I SEE A PLACE IN A GAME AND TRY TO FIGURE OUT HOW I GET THERE: this is what gaming is all about baby

guy who refuses to play silent hill f in english because the dub isn't british people pronouncing everything incorrectly like siren on PS2
