The canon sh2 end is he disappeared in silent hill and never came back

So the ending where he kills himself is probably the canon one then. Where's the part where he didn't win

edit: Alternatively the ending where he leaves Silent Hill with the little girl is the canon one and he just starts a new life because yknow he did kill his wife and all, in which case he did not win because now he has to look after the most annoying child in videogames

Watch this cute couple play Mario Party, it's adorable and a comfy way to spend an evening. Also terrifying when they occasionally get competitive.

edit: Also watch dscruffy1 play Enter the Gungeon because he manages to make that game look continuously really fun somehow.

Getting caught while trying to sneak out of the diner because you forgot to pay for your food was pretty mind-blowing at the time, somehow. It's a shame all that little intricate stuff is dropped basically immediately after you're introduced to all the characters and then the game goes absolutely batshit at about the halfway point.

I don't know jack about computers, but is there a reason why Valve even needs to operate Steam as a client vs as an online store, when GOG doesn't require a client at all? Is it the download management and autoupdating stuff?

It ensures that the games you buy from their platform can only be played on their platform.

Origin is so much better than Steam as a client it's almost embarrassing. I wish Steam ran as well or was so less cluttered or even so nice to look at as Origin is. It's just a shame Valve doesn't have to make Steam function that well because people are gonna use it (in a lot of cases have to) no matter what.

Origin worms its way into my computers startup processes in a way that steam never does, and it's constantly trying to run background poo poo or install updates when I don't even want it to be running.

That is a bummer but you can just tell it not to do that and it won't anymore. I get a popup telling me I need to download an update just about every time I launch the thing because it can't do it automatically anymore but whatever. :shrug:

I can't wait for a bunch of people to come to the realization that Crash 2 was the only good game in that series, Racing notwithstanding.

My dude, there was never a bad Crash Bandicoot game outside of the GBA until the crappy beat em up ones. Not a single one. Even the first game, with its floaty-rear end controls, was still more than on the level with its competition at the time on PS1. Twinsanity remains one of the best 3D platformers I've ever played.

in this angry birds cartoon, the pigs capture two birds to force them to gently caress which for some reason they think will make an egg they can eat. the birds argue while they are trapped and the pigs think they are loving, which allows the birds to escape

no part of that sentence is an exaggeration
