I probably would not have gotten Psychonauts 2, but thanks to GamePass I'm having a blast playing it.

Yes very much so. I've taken to making sure to not look at the opening credits so as to avoid the names of various actors who will appear. This helps keep things suspenseful. I'm surprised it took me as long as it did to figure out.

We completely sure that's Strange?

I tried it since it's on GamePass and did not care for it at first blush. Decided to come back a couple days later and this time I really didn't like it... It has a ton of mechanics and many of them seem rather counterintuitive.

There does seem to be a genuine leak trailer, but it's crappy quality and full of placeholder effects with a watermark of the VFX artist in the middle (so he's likely in trouble)

I am not really enjoying this season. Its more Batman-oriented than anything and the parts that do include various characters seem to ring hollow or just feel overly melodramatic. Was there something in Alan Ritchson's contract that specified he had to have some gratuitous nudity? Also...

It's a very interesting setting to choose as a reskin of Battlestar Galactica. It might actually be a bit easier to get people to play, however, as the Lovecraft stuff seems somehow less hardcore nerd than BSG

I did like that they made some use of forced perspective to make Gizmo look short. The show is obviously no Wandavision in terms of effects budget, but it doesnt do too shabby.

The original Secret World had such a wonderful skill synergy system with the two weapons, various skills associates with those weapons and the way in which you could make interest combos or set up group dynamics. Their skill wheel was *chefs kiss* The new version butchered all that...

After watching a couple streamers playing this...maybe I'll just start a seasonal character in Diablo 3 instead. It looks so stilted.

Definitely want to see this in 44 days

If they have Jade they should do Obsidian as well, but they probably won't.

At the end was that...

Well I will be seeing it 45 days after release then. I wanna see the flick and I would pay the $30 premium but I am done with movie theaters.

Pushed this back to mid October as they are afraid of the current box office climate.

So 'endgame' content will contain new weapons, like that Void thingy, that you dont have access to otherwise? They will keep the game fresh via release of new weapon-based skills?

Better late than never? Nah its way the fuck too late.

Saw the 9.1 cinematic 'flashback' at the end of the Campaign: Extremely underwhelming.

First episode was, as was indicated in the trailer and advance materials, Captain Carter. Very well done as an alternative history, very cool that so many of the original voices came to play...makes me wonder why Chris Evans, of all people, chose not to. The animation, however, is what I...

Ball-point pen is from Johnny Thunder and contains his Thunderbolt. A neon pink djinn from the 5th dimension. Johnny Thunder was succeeded by Jakeem Thunder in the JSA reboot which created Stargirl.

https://deadline.com/2021/08/amc-entertainment-adam-aron-warner-bros-1234811729/ Well this is disappointing. We already talked among my people and we don't want to go back to fighting with traffic, movie schedules, crowds etc. Would be happy to throw them some bones for the convenience of...

Part of me does wonder why Acti-Blizz never tried to license the base engine of WoW. I suppose it was fear of letting another DOTA emerge from their work, but if they structured the licensing right it could have been a significant revenue source.

Suicide Squad / Task Force X has always been more about the street-level villains and/or mercs. Heavily mined from the rogues gallery of Batman and the Flash rather than large scale overarching threats. These are villains and many of them have powers/abilities but they aren't supervillains.

It's just us seeing the world that Harley sees. I thought it was a cool POV

This is pretty much a $200M Troma film (even has Lloyd Kaufman in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it cameo). For people who appreciate Troma style this was amazing fun. I'm surprised that 'normies' are enjoying it as much as they do.

I'm happy they finally gave Starro some popular media attention. Motherfucker has been around since 1960 and never got the respect he deserves.

The funny thing is that the extremely high compensation that executives get is ostensibly due to them having to make sure that shit like this doesn't happen. Just more evidence as to what a sweet racket it is to be a 'C-suite' class person.

RIP Kamino. I suppose they shipped Nala Se and the other main cloners to Exegol... Interesting detail about Omega's age. I had not considered the fact that she was the first 'mutant' clone given her apparent age compared to the others. They had accelerated aging whereas she does not.

You have to use the Deck skill as an AE pulse before you open the chest.

Good to see that Gregor was always a bit nuts.

I figured they were holding back on the next test / soft-release until after New World launches, but they just pushed that back a full month. Maybe they will announce a new beta in the next couple days as part of a marketing reshuffle at Amazon?

Interesting that they are giving themselves another month. I'm not sure what they can do to change their overall fate in that time.

This looks interesting. Anyone here check it out?

$30M in Disney+ premiere access spend for Jungle Cruise... I think this absolutely validates the premiere streaming home model. It seems logical that people would be willing to shell out shekels for something like Black Widow owing to it's event-status as part of the MCU, but Jungle Cruise...

There is an augment to spawn a little robot to gather shit for you. Seems silly but it's handy in swarm fights as they can pick up health packs and such.

they made this as part of the big nostalgia kick leading up to the BBC 100th anniversary next year and it is excellent. It covers the same basic stories as the original source books but with a more refined period sense typical of so many BBC productions. It just feels so goddamn heartwarming.

I finished the main story and had a blast with this. I wish they had ray tracing enabled on the XSX but even without it the game visuals are very nice. It was challenging without being too frustrating in that whenever I found myself failing it was due to not having made the necessary changes...

They are doing a 'sneak preview' by doing a showing on Thursday night in theaters but also HBO Max. That has to really piss off the theater owners who thought 'well at least we get the FOMO types who have to see it first!'

Only significant but I've found has to do with the pathing. A couple times now it has very clearly led me to the wrong place. Each time I just have to go backwards or take a different route away from th suggested path until it flips to a new routing.
