how come Paladin Cecil's battle sprite looks like he has super saiyan hair

I remember being upset as a kid because I thought his dark knight form looked so much cooler than the paladin.

Because in the original b&w manga it was an easy way to differentiate the transformation as a contrast from normal dark Saiyan hair.

I want to collect the Dragon Ball manga in physical media but there's always something else taking precedence and it'll get reprinted forever so there's no rush.

So I’m at this bug arcade dealy this weekend in Pittsburgh and they have not one, but two Tattoo Assassins cabinets.

Thanks to that, I’ve finally played a fighting game worse than Kasumi Ninja. Jesus.

Who cares, you're getting worked up into a froth over something that is probably going to end up shutting down like the last version of the escapist. it doesn't matter.

Also if they have 2 Tattoo Assassins machines the real arcade heads are probably avoiding them bc its likely fake hardware considering there are only 2 tattoo assassins machines in existence period. its probably an emulator or you could plan the greatest heist in arcade gaming history tonight.

I always like Paladin Cecil better but when I was a kid, I always wanted Cecil to have like Ninja-level Black Magic instead of lovely White Magic. Because like, he used to be a Dark Knight, so he gets magic instead of cure spells

my brain's bein fucky and it needs to cool off and I'm tryin to tire myself out mentally so I'll fall asleep so i'm gonna play some more Paint It Back since picross is exactly the kind of thing to make my brain go numb and distract me til I fall asleep

Yea here's hoping the brain numbing kicks in soon because I just wanna sleep and I've gotta be up early tomorrow for a med appointment so they can hopefully change my meds because I don't think the previous change has been doing anything positive for me and all I want right now is to just stop thinking and picross is damned good for that

EarthWorm Jim 3D was probably the game that introduced me to cut content from games even if I didn't know it at the time. I remember reading about it on magazines back then and wondering where all those levels shown in the previews were when I finally got the game.

it's ok, in place of all that cut content we got a boss battle about earthworm jim's confused gender identity and desperate struggle to prevent themself from transitioning

I haven’t thought about or visited The Escapist in a long time, so out of curiosity I took a look. Their front page features a goodbye column from September 2017? It looks like the whole site is just Yahtzee content? Weird.

I like Picross but oh my god am I bad at it (yet I also refuse to use any assistance).

At least I've gotten to a point where often I can actually sometimes find my mistakes rather than trashing the whole puzzle when I reach a point that clearly shows I hosed up somewhere along the way.

Cool, assuming you mean Replay FX a bunch of my friends are there for the Pinburgh pinball tournament. I was really interested in going but it didn't work out for me this year. Next year I'm gonna make a real effort to compete.

One of the guys from my pinball league is running some tourney's in the console lounge, if you want to test your Dr. Mario mettle.

Not necessarily "cut content" but I learned that games can have weird last minute changes before release thanks to the issue of Nintendo Power that says there's a piece of heart on top of the Kokiri Shop in Ocarina of Time (complete with a screenshot showing it).

You'll get better! It took me hours upon hours of playing Armor Picross (1 and 2) on Newgrounds before I was good at it.

Sometimes I think about getting a book of them but that just seems like a good way to get your hands covered in graphite/ink
