I recommend one of those two piece ones, they're solid metal and you can take them apart for cleaning

It was a gaming news and info site founded by beloved former Gamespot editors and writers. It was recently bought out and practically everyone was laid off.

Ahhh it's nice tho! I keep hearing people complain about this figure lacking detail, I think I might try to panel line mine.

Yeah fair enough, definitely more of him having to reconcile with his own shotty past tho.

It is absolutely bonkers that none of the rest had metroidvania structure when that seemed to be one of the core ideas of the first one.

Like, do you think people were marching the streets because they didn't like the vice president?
No!
It was because Biden said he was working toward a ceasefire while expediting arms shipments!

???
There weren't protests against Harris, are you confused? It was against the war and in support of a ceasefire, it was against Biden if anything.

It really feels like in earlier chapters we would've seen Asa's reaction in a little cutaway. Her absence feels kind of pointed here.

Calling them hackers is the most misguided messaging I've heard.
1. They were ceded access to these systems. Hacking would be way harder.
2. Being a hacker is cool and aspirational for techies.
3. Taking over the treasury department is so much worse than hacking. This is downplaying.

It's funny that one of the only things I know about this game is that it doesn't actually let you play all of the story anymore.

Only if it's something obvious to me like a 2005 ugly digital colors style comic in the 90s.
Put a 70s FF comic in a 60s movie I wouldn't notice.

Webp is objectively incredible at what it does.
Probably going be supplanted by jpeg xl but any hate you feel toward webp should probably be directed toward applications you use that aren't keeping up with the times.

I only played the PSP one when I was young but I'm gonna play the PS2 ones on my new emulation device

He is incredible but depending on badly you want the trailer, I would suggest looking into the $120 Light of Peace figure, which is huge, gorgeous, and has the best engineered transformation I've ever seen.

Here's a thing, tons of Chinese brands make high quality electronics that simply aren't known in the US. Having a wikipedia page is a pretty high bar.

He's owned a gaming outlet for years. Becoming a priest was a past 2 years pivot for him. He's just following the money.

I think it's interesting the way genres compress like this. In its heyday these would have been considered different genres, the same way chamber music and symphony music are both "classical music" to most people.

Did you know they put it and RE8 and RE4R on iPhone? That's crazy to me, modern AAA console games running on a passively cooled device the size of your hand...

Same, that's the exact reason I got it! The idea that some dude 20,000 years ago looked at a bear and went "okay, the paw shape, the hump on its back, it's cute little snoot... these are the essential elements of a bear" is so cool, we really are the same type of animal we've always been.

What I don't understand is why the default reaction is "aha I've figured something out I'm too clever for these game designers" and not "ahh clearly the game designers are trying to tell me something"

What don't you like about it? Like you think a decade would be enough time to figure out whether or not a series is for you lol
