can i be real with y'all

90% of the reason i bought a Steam Deck was for portable Chao Garden

like, SA2 Chao Garden being portable was what I constantly thought about any time I talked about the system pre-launch

wonder what that says about me

you got into Linux because Windows 11 looked terrible and game incompatibility is now far less of an issue

I got into Linux because the Steam Deck lets me have Chao Garden on the go

we are not the same

 

[MooMew64]

Oh yeah, I read through some of the Sonic Movie 2 reviews on RT.

I can't believe the family movie about the family friendly video game series is, in fact, a fun, campy, family movie.

in shambles rn, how could Paramount do this

 

[TheMightyP]

Sonic Bad.

 

[MooMew64]

Sonic Bad.

ha ha yes

GameGrumps moment

GameGrumps moment

Dan loves Sonic, it’s just Arin who feels like starting ****.

 

[MooMew64]

Dan loves Sonic, it’s just Arin who feels like starting ****.

Huh, interesting.

All I've ever heard from the outside was about Arin being ultra-mean spirited about everything Sonic related, so that's cool.

 

[Noipoi]

Huh, interesting.

All I've ever heard from the outside was about Arin being ultra-mean spirited about everything Sonic related, so that's cool.

I mean, Dan enjoys laughing at a glitchy broken Sonic game too. But he also genuinely has fun with the legitimately good ones.

…

Game Grumps compilations make good background noise while I’m drawing…

Update on SA2 Modloader shenanigans with Steam Deck:

Mod Loader installed!

CODES WORKING

GONNA TEST MODS NOW BUT HOLY COW IT WORKS AND IT DOESN'T NEED TO BE LAUNCHED THROUGH BOTTLES

 

[TMNTSSB4]

I'd be willing to bet the reason Aquaman did so well is because casuals thought it was Marvel and it released between IW and Endgame. No offence to Aquaman, but I struggle to believe he could beat Superman or Batman with just a good movie.

nobody thought Captain Marvel would do it either, but that went well. Besides, having a handsome man play Aquaman to go alongside a good movie and director (and bright coloring holy **** and Willem Dafoe) definitely had a role in having people hope the DCEU would improve big time after this…

still a bit of a complicated mess it’s in thanks to Flash

WALL-E's at 3 and that's still too low

Also, people sleep on Toy Story 2 too much...

 

[MooMew64]

I still have to see Turning Red, so I can't comment on that.

But bruh, Good Dinosaur over Monsters University? Toy Story 3 over Toy Story 2? Incredibles the best???

I have not seen any Pixar movie after Good Dinosaur aside from Coco, so I can't speak to any of those ones.

Still, that list...

My issues:
Inside Out top 5
Incrdibles 2 too high
Toy Story 4 too high
Onward not bottom 5
Cars 2 not being bottom 1
Finding Dory placement
Ratatoullie not even cracking Top 10
Bug Life too high
Cars too low

Bottom tier tier list IGN

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Screw it, here's my current Pixar rankings.

21. Cars 3
20. Monsters University
19. Incredibles 2
18. Finding Dory
17. Finding Nemo
16. A Bug's Life

Anyway, here's someone you'll all been waiting for

DAILY DEMON SHOWCASE

This showcase's demon is of the Jaki race:

View attachment 348857

“I’m Jaki Minotaur. Fools who step foot in my domain... I’LL DINE ON THEIR BLOOD!”

Alignment: Neutral-Neutral

Origin: Greek mythology. A monster born from the wife of King Minos Pasiphae and a bull she was cursed to fall in love with. He was given the name Asterion as a child but was more well-known as Minotaur, or “the bull of Minos” due to having the tail and head of a bull. As he was a danger to all around him, Minotaur was prisoned in the center of the Labyrinth designed by Daedalus where he ate youths every year until the hero Theseus killed him.

Skills: Charge, Fierce Roar, Tarukaja, Rampage

Next time, you will meet a demon of the Megami race.

Spoiler: Design Notes

A lot has been said about how raw Minotaur’s design goes and I have to agree. The bull sitting over Asterius’s shoulders and turning him into a monster, with his skull forming its mouth is so cool. The labyrinthine design over its skin just adds to the great impression. It’s no surprise that Minotaur’s battle strategy is to hit and hit hard. As a result, he’s a boss encounter in more games than he is not.

All this demon reminds me of is SirLionhart

 

[MooMew64]

Don’t make me Will Smith you

I have the right to make fun of it, I was one of the three people who owned one.

Watched some Heihachi from PlayStation All-Stars to see how he compares Smash's Kazuya
1) Smash's inputs actually matches Tekken's
2) Why the **** does Heihachi have a bowling pin toss move?

Poor, stupid child me.

I thought the Wii U was the dopest ****.

It has Wooly World and Splat1 for me.

...

That's 'bout it, nowadays.

Oh yeah and Color Splash, but, uh...

Yeah.

 

[Wademan94]

It has Wooly World

Which needs to be ported, Crafted World did nothing for me

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

You know the music that plays when the station is on fire in the city trial mode in kirby air ride? What the hell was so important about that station that the music have to go so ominous

 

[TheMightyP]

It has Wooly World and Splat1 for me.

...

That's 'bout it, nowadays.

Oh yeah and Color Splash, but, uh...

Yeah.

Splat 1 is worse than playing TF2 nowadays. Sad to see.

And Color Splash was... mid. But it had a good soundtrack.

Can't speak on Wooly World but Crafted World looked like a solid 5/10

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Crafted World could've been salvaged if they actually called it "Yoshi's Flipping island"

 

[Wario Bros.]

I really need to get back to Woolly World

I can't finish Crafted World
