I like that Dunkin Donuts' ad campaign used to be, "we ruin our employees' lives to bring you these fuckin delicious donuts"

Dunkin sucks. Go to local places. If you're lucky enough to have a Spudnuts nearby, savor it

I think the best way to sum up modern Dunkin Donuts can be summed up by Jon Stewart referring to them as "Dunkin Donuts: where you can now get a tuna sandwich for some reason"

Spudnuts is real good.

I would take a fresh churro over most doughnuts though

The doughnut place near my house is pretty great but the real benefit is since I was friends with the owner's son in high school I get half off all the kolaches and eclairs I want. :cheers:

The only Doughnut places I have near me that aren't Dunkin Donuts is another chain that's even worse (Honeydew) and a local place that's even worse than that (actually now that I think about it, I think the local place is gone)

trying to put together a list of games that will be at E3 for the thread on monday and it's like, wow there's not a whole lot.

Ace Combat 7
Battlefront II
Call of Duty WWII
Cyberpunk 2077 (maybe this year finally)
Days Gone
Death Stranding
Destiny 2
Detroit: Become Human
Dragon Quest XI
Dreams
Ever Oasis
Final Fantasy 7 Remake
Fire Emblem Warriors
God of War dad edition
Kingdom Hearts III (nah it's never coming out)
Mario Odyssey
Metal Gear Survive
Middle-Earth: Shadow of War
Project Rap Rabbit
Quake Champions
Red Dead Redemption 2
Sea of Thieves
Sonic Forces
Splatoon 2
The Last of Us 2
Vampyr

And there's some garbage in there, I mean. No one gives a gently caress about David Cage anymore. Quake champions is gonna suck. metal gear survive is just some bullshit with metal gear tacked on

Naturally new games get announced, but usually not with a 6 month lead in to release (except in Nintendo's case). Whatever newly gets announced is likely for 2018.

Ubisoft has gotten better about announcing games that are releasing before the next E3. Whether you like those games is another story.

Ubisoft hasn't said whether they'll be at E3 yet and they're in the midst of a takeover so I dunno what's going on there

My favourite fries not covered in poutine are from Dairy Queen. Just perfectly crispy in a way that makes them really unique when compared to baked fries. Whereas a couple potatoes, some salt, and an oven can put a majority of fast and casual fries to shame.

Don't forget Geoff has already announced he's doing something...well something like he always does for E3 this year with interviews and stuff.

Probably will lift his spirits after that venture he tried to get off the ground, even with the entire support of YouTube Gaming failed to catch on last fall.

I mean like. Splatoon was a new recent IP and so is ARMS and so is Snipperclips and so is Ever Oasis. They're doin their best trying to juggle all the IPs they have and also come up with new ideas.

E3 is usually not what people look to for new IPs though

It's a 2nd-party title by Grezzo who primarily has worked on Zelda ports for Nintendo and they helped make Tri-Force Heroes

Finally finished off the Dark Souls 3 DLC. I enjoyed it very much

Reading up about people's reactions to it and the series in general, it's pretty amazing. Lots of complicated feelings. Seems like it's a very important franchise for a lot of people, and picking through the divergent opinions of what made it good and how it got better or worse is something I just might explore over the next few days.

Maybe I'm just blinded by that postcredits ecstasy but from where I'm standing all of the Souls games are definite G5F5

My only real beef with DS3 is the amount of multi-phase bosses with separate health bars, after a while there was no sense of relief the first time you 'beat' something because you just knew it was gonna pull out another phase or whatever

I'm also legit annoyed that the version of Code Veronica that's coming to PS4 is the PS2 version emulated rather than the proper port they did for PS3.

That seems oddly high considering I think here a double bacon cheese burger (not that your should even bother with their bacon) is like $8

I mean granted it's more than a fast food burger but it's also way better so :shrug:
