Women are wonderful animals, they should be making music and writing novels about having a complex relationship with your mother.
Consider how long the tail was on the Vita for niche titles despite being basically abandoned after the first year by Sony, imagine the kind of life the Vita would have now as a place for niche and indie titles if it didn't use proprietary memory cards. If you could just buy an old Vita and throw an SD card in there instead of having to track down an 80 dollar 16 GB Vita card.

Probably because it was designed so tightly around the bizarro PS3 architecture that porting it would be too much effort :/

Yeah there's even a segment which relies on the in-built PS1 emulator!

Last time I played Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate I just played the single player campaign to the credits. This time since I figure it's the last time I'll enjoy the classic Monster Hunter gameplay before being spoiled by the simplified new Monster Hunter gameplay I'm trying out more stuff, doing some Hub quests, and I just discovered Deviant Monsters.

It Takes Two is solid fun so far.

It's a beautiful game! My partner and I are about to finish the part with the wasps. We played through A Way Out a couple weeks ago and had no idea It Takes Two would be coming out so soon, seriously hoping cooperative-only titles become more mainstream.

I mean, if you're a successful actress and you go out of the house in a skirt and without underwear, knowing that paparazzi are just waiting for opportunities like this and that it has happened many times before, then there's really nobody you can blame for it but yourself.

It is pretty good and fun, but you really have to like crafting in games. It's built completely around it. I like the game and I've spent some 15 hours on it already, which is something I don't do often these days.

Ac!d has one of the craziest plots in metal gear, absolute lunacy. 2 plays and looks better, but its plot is like Tom Clancy level.

Yeah, I didn't know if Simone has ever played any other Atelier games, so I thought I'd just point it out.

In Breath of Fire 2, the village you start in has multiple toilets that are clogged up. But later in the game you'll have a flashback sequence to decades prior, and the toilets are still clogged up!

lol EA Desktop is even shittier than the Game Pass app (which makes you use it to install EA games); half the time the download fails to start, then half the time it finishes and you load the game up it fails to actually start

My friends and I started playing Return of The Obra Dinn about a while ago and had a great time, but we got stuck at some point, and we ended up dropping it for about a year. So last night we just got a Gamefaqs guide up and finished it, and I'm not gonna lie, I think there's a 0% chance we would have actually figured out everything, specifically knowing to use the shoes of the Chinese topmen from the numbered hammocks to discover their identities. That must have been crazy cathartic to anyone who got that legitimately though.

Also the epilogue chapter was kind of cool, and helped further inform the Captain's choice of suicide at the end, but it was kind of a let down as a Golden Ending thing imo,

Man, reading this irl play-by-play of MGS4 just reminds me that it kinda ruled. Even though it's definitely the stupidest game in the series, the set-pieces and big moments do enough to justify it.

Raging Raven was a slog of a boss fight, way less interesting than Octopus. Worth it for the best line since Stillman going "I've killed my soul!" though

I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people that do.


Sometimes I think about how many hours were spent modeling and animating those ultra-realistic CGI eggs (that still look horrible and fake despite being overlaid over footage of real eggs) to make a really bad metaphor about womanhood and parenting.
