With the God of War cast change they should've just done it like Kamen Rider. "Kratos had to go to America, the actor was definitely not injured. So he asked me, Kratos 2, to take over for him here is Midgard".

Discotek days are great because for weeks you'll get them posting stuff like this with "there's a clue to a big release here!" and then a week later they'll reveal "it was for Digimon Frontier on Blu-ray because several characters in it wear hats."

I regret to inform you that the Kacho will be pontificating this month on a Game Center CX livestream whether or not it is time to expand the scope of retro gaming to include the PlayStation…3. And Nintendo Wii.

A screenshot of Game Center CX host Shinya Arino holding a Dual Shock 3 controller while a Nintendo Wii and fat model PlayStation 3 are in front of him, with large captions for Wii and PS3 superimposed along with Japanese text conveying shock and dismay (“What!?” “Intolerable!”)

I wish there was a single politician willing to say we need more immigrants here in the UK, immigration is a fundamental freedom and good in-itself, and we should accept all migrants as new neighbours and fellow children of god, as the nominal official religion of this country supposedly preaches

"Sinking in Polls, Farage Plans Week of Attacks on Immigration" Reform plan to make next week Immigration Week It could finally be the moment for broadcast media to notice the > 75% drop in net migration since 2024. There is also a 42% drop in boat crossings

Bloomberg: Sinking in Polls, Farage Plans Week of Attacks on Immigration

Reform UK party is planning to hold multiple press conferences on immigration to turn public attention to the issue, despite the number of migrants arriving in the country nearly halving from the same time last year.
A total of 14,200 immigrants have arrived in the UK via small boats so far this year, down 44% compared to the same period last year, with the Home Office and National Crime Agency increasing seizures of small-boat engines and improving enforcement cooperation with the French.
The issue of immigration threatens to be riskier territory for new Prime Minister Andy Burnham, who is already facing disquiet from backbench colleagues over reforms proposed during his predecessor's tenure.
