I just bought Max Brooks' Devolution earlier this day at Indigos (What was once Chapters) while I was out. I thought to myself we're due for a threatical Bigfoot movie, I looked it up, apparently, an adaption of this is in the works.

Nice.

So Sticker Star is the Sonic 06 for Mario?
Not quite. As a whole, Sticker Star functions well, everything works and the game is complete per say, but the issues were the design and narrative choices. 06 was non functional and incomplete.

But one thing they have in common is a banging ost and a fanbase that just can't let go and move one

Sonic 06 was.... a bad game?


What? You didn't like the weird inter-species relationship between Sonic and the red-haired girl?

The fun part about 06 is that it's developing a following recently.

A decent amount of folks full-chested say they like the game unironically now, Sonic fans are not okay.

I have purchased Hollow Knight and the Castlevania Anniversary Collection. Both were on sale, and Hollow Knight is Hollow Knight and the Castlevania one is like seven games in one. So if I'm bored, I have every important Castlevania game except Symphony of the Night on demand.

Arlo has some clownable takes but ultimately he is quite based


(Although he could have been much harder on Nintendo)

All game companies are bad and mistreat employees but it's crazy how much under the radar the Ubisoft scandals went (but then again ActBlizz took the ****ing cake like shortly after).

Maybe I shouldn't talk tho cause I still buy Nintendo games even though NoA did get in some trouble lately.

I bought it. Crucify me.
The thesis of the video was just explaining why Arlo didn't feel comfortable reviewing the game but how everyone has their own tolerance for stuff and to not dunk on people who bought the game. and also that Ubisoft deserves more pressure for their awful practices.

I know. I watched the whole thing eventually. It's just the initial reaction and the urge for digital self harm in the face of mass corporate greed.

The Radical Left frame-traps and reflects
I honestly kind of look forward to the day when we'll have a President who actively plays Video Games as opposed to Golf all the time. If there is a politician who can beat Mike Tyson in Punch Out without save states, they'll certainly have my vote. lol

Probably won't happen though until the late Gen X'ers or early Millennials start moving into higher offices though.

Obama definitely played Mario Kart with his kids
