Klefki is bullshit. Imo fairy type has been a mistake, they tried to fix dragon dominance and created an even more overpowered type. And then it's sub typed to bizarre mons. Why is Azurill fairy? Did all the Tapus need to be fairy?

I always thought I was missing out as a kid not having Dark Portal expansion for Warcraft 2 but all they really added was a tile set where the trees were one kind of mushroom instead. The new campaign is pretty meh, feels the same with less supply choke at start.

Visually I have to hand it to World of Warcraft here, it has the better looking Draenors.

If I saw an Ouya for ultra cheap I'd absolutely buy it to put on a shelf.

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


A museum of video game failures would be fun to curate. Imagine the Ouya in a little glass case and people walk up to it their brows furrowed in deep contemplation. The Anthem “Echoes of Reality” roadmap printed on an enormous 16x9’ canvas.

I just randomly got recommended this game trailer and it looks rad, it has a really 80s/90s urban anime mecha style to it, like patlabor or ghost in the shell.

plus it looks like you can get out of your mech like in Metal Warriors, and run around doing stuff on foot. there's also a quick shot of you fighting a bunch of dinosaurs, so that's cool too

Ok so which pokemon is based on Morrigan? Because what I'm seeing in the games is dragons being weak to jangling keys in their face and giving them a big sloppy kiss

That's a funny mental image, for sure, but

patlabor is what i instantly thought of between the head wing design and the short-haired tomboy protag. looks pretty neat, and it'll be nice to have a non-metroidvania platformer for a change of pace

That's a trick though, it works right up until it doesn't and then he's an unstoppable one man wrecking crew who will destroy all your carefully laid out plans and there's nothing you can do to stop him.... unless.... perhaps if I was to threaten his adopted children and their beloved orphanage.......

Don't need a holster if you never stop shooting.

Just finished the last bit of sea of stars. Solid game; pays good tribute to its spiritual predecessors without feeling too derivative of them. Possibly the best movement and animation I've experienced in an isometric JRPG. Music ranges from MIDI-meh to incredible, mostly toward the latter. The world they built is worth its salt but the script really could have used a once-over; the main characters are empty lawful-good shells. Definitely not a challenging game unless you take advantage of late-game passive debuffs. I'm a small NG+ grind from plat but I don't think I'll bother.

Can't unseat Chrono Trigger as the GOAT but does a decent job of scratching the itch if you've already played that one.
