@cloudymusic: “The Future War on Terror” as a tagline is just about the most perfect summation of post-9/11 video game marketing I’ve ever seen.

I’ll try not to overreach in my assumptions here, but it’s remarkable that Dan’s takeaway from MGS is that terms like “nuclear proliferation”, “information control”, etc. are simply a backdrop for Coo...

@bondfish said:I did beat it this past weekend had a great time playing, but man that game is flawed when you failed a dungeon and have to reset without full health, leave the dungeon, heal up and co...

I mean, “internet meme” is a specific subset of meme which pretty much has come to mean “joke template that is easily transferred to a variety of topics.”The problem is that people are taking it too f...

MCU movies are literally the most mainstream, normie action movies in existence right now.Video games are honestly also pretty mainstream, but it really depends what games a person plays.Actually read...

I think Chris Pratt as Johnny Cage gives him too much credit. He can do the comedic timing, but there’s a vain cocky asshole element to Cage (well, young Cage) that I don’t think suits Pratt quite as ...

I contend that the the last 4 or so dungeons are pretty difficult to find/trigger unless you look up a guide or Nintendo Power or whatever that explains how they can be found. Also, finding some of th...

tbh, I would’ve watched an entire movie that was like the first 20 minutes. They all get ready to track down Thanos and do some superhero punchy-punch, but he’s retired to farming, puts up no fight, d...

@jondo: Sadly that excerpt is some fake Twitter shit where somebody made up a convincing fake screenshot. It is very funny, though.

As someone who watches Twitch from time to time, let me tell the staff that typing “F” when anyone or anything dies/leaves/goes away is PERVASIVE. I don’t think it’s part of general gaming culture nec...

@hassun: The devs should team up and just make Satisfactorio.

I pretty much fully burned out on loot games back when I put dozens of hours into Borderlands 1 (solo) and Torchlight 1, and realized I was just throwing my time away on a flashier ProgressQuest. I ha...

I remember looking up a lot of late game stuff in Candy Box 2. Specifically, there was some bullshit cyclops lighthouse puzzle where it seemed absurdly complicated and the rules of it aren’t made clea...

Can we stop saying “diddler”?Also, the House of Cards comparison doesn’t make as much sense. That was weird because Spacey was the star, and there was another season to film, and they had to rework th...

I really despised most of the soundtrack in the original Need For Speed: Most Wanted. I went so far as to go into the music menu and manually turn off the tracks I extra hated, but in those dark pre-p...

This has been a fun podcast to listen to. I didn’t rewatch anything, and remembered enough of DBZ for this to make sense, so if they ever decide to watch more anime for podcast, I wonder if I would co...

It’s not a perfect analogy, but losing the source code is a lot like losing the masters of a music album.You can copy the finished product all you want, but you can’t easily modify the individual aspe...

@zanzibarbreeze said:One of the top GB series. The people want a Nuclear Throne This Is the Run. And by the people I mean me, and at least one other person I know of. It's a great game and it would b...

@baconbits said:Vinny singing Thunder by Imagine Dragons while playing as a lightning dragon.And once Vinny mentions it's a stadium rock artist, all of Dan's guesses are for rock acts from before Dan...

Is that dramatically smaller than the MK9 roster? Maybe I'm overestimating it in my memory, but in my mind MK9 was the Smash Ultimate of MK games.
