I can't believe this, but the L.A. Law game is actually halfway decent. It's still a lazy budget affair with corners cut all over the place, but it's playable — which ranks it above most of Capstone's library.
I thought this would be a one-off stream, but I think I'll be back next week with more. 🤷♀️

Absolutely! I just remember wondering why I didn't know anyone actually reading those comics if they were the hottest thing on the market. Then again, I was brain-poisoned by a steady stream of early Image slop, so what did I know?

I have a conspiracy theory that Wizard was astroturfing the popularity/collectability of the entire Valiant line. Not that there weren't some good comics from some outstanding creators — it just felt like Wizard decided they were the hottest thing ever out of nowhere.

Super Mega Baseball is fantastic. It sits kinda perfectly at the intersection of arcade sports and actual simulation.

I'd still like to see Carlos Mencia take a pass at it.
