saw Transformers '86 in a theatre today. First time watching it in almost 15 years; my 20th anniversary DVD was left behind when i moved to CA i still love it as much as i did then. it might be a 90 minute toy commercial dressed up like an anime music video but god its stylish and quotable.

replaying PS1 Metal Gear Solid for thr first time in over a decade and a half and realizing people who hate its Twin Snakes remake compared to their either never actually played Twin Snake or worse are probably people that just hated Metal Gear Solid 2 back in the 2000s

man its so distressing that the new starcraft project has such a great trailer that really goes back to rhe tone of the first game after SC2 moved more into being an epic heroic adventure knowing its gonna be some shitass FPS and wont come out until im 41 (assuming it doesnt just get cancelled) :[

Slippy makes emotes when he gives you hints in the Japanese version of SFAd hahaha. This is when he tells you check Peppy's map, i wonder if there are others.

samus vs zeiram was not on my bingo card for what "metroid ravenous" could be about but im all for sakamoto to continue putting goofy sf references into his work so long as he keeps providing them!!

everyone except ME is wrong about Zelda 2 because I am Zelda 2's strongest soldier and am objectively incapable of being misinformed about its greatness and anywho who disagrees with me is stupid, ugly, wrong and is going to superhell and not even in a handbasket!!!!

"EVERYBODY is wrong about Zelda 2" unfortunately, shit-tier youtuber, EVERYBODY includes you, and as you are WRONG about zelda 2 I will not be watching your video

thinking of actual bona fide romances and not just ships is hard lol. but heres some i like Sigurd/Deirdre (Fire Emblem) Slippy/Amanda (Star Fox) Samurai Goroh/Lisa Brilliant (F-Zero) Anju/Kafei (Legend of Zelda) theyre all kinda basic tbh lol but they have cute dynamics/vibes I like.

in honor of one of the very worst: what are your favorite video game romances? my favorite is probably tali in mass effect - every time I go in I'm like okay I'm gonna romance someone else this time, I'm gonna do it, and then I get hit with "you deserve better" "I got better, shepard, I got you"

there's a lot of love for pre-rendered backgrounds in games (and rightfully so) but there should be more love for 3D fixed-camera games too! Just as cinematic, but now rooms can dynamically turn and reveal and stuff! A lot of games I love do this: Silent Hill, Eternal Darkness, Lament of Innocence.

this one hurts. Sam Neil was a favorite actor of me and my brother growing up. Jurassic Park yes obviously but also Mouth of Madness, Event Horizon, the Merlin miniseries... we loved this guy and the natural affability he brought. its gonna be different watching those from now on :(

The legendary Sam Neill has died. He was 78 and had been battling stage 3 blood cancer, but announced in the spring that he was cancer-free. His family described his passing as “sudden and unexpected.”

while we're all busy shitting on Sony for being fuckin' garbitch,why the fuck doesn't PS4 Pro support 4K UHD discs? Sony you fucking invented Bluray and you kneecapped the PS3's affordability to make sure everyone would have a Bluray player!

Star Fox 2026 has deemed it fit to make Solar even worse than its N64 counterpart by just making the boss have like 5 times as much fucking health. good god why. why would you do this.
