    Stellar Blade (April 26th, PS5)

    This looks like a goddamn child However, it seems to only be from some angles, and in some shots, while in others she looks a few years older. In the trailer she looks like a kid when turning a certain way, then older when she finishes turning around. It's weird as hell. Looks like if you...

    Masters of the Universe (2026)

    Wait, so they cast an actress as sexy as Camila Mendes to play this character: ...and then they put her in fucking PANTS? Well, anyway, this sounds like a solid movie that needs support, so I'll go see it tomorrow or Tues. I had no interest in this because I thought it was still part of that...

    Dude, just stop playing and put it on eBay. I left behind my "I have to finish every game I start" mindset in like 2022. If you bought it digital, well, sorry, eat the loss I guess. Only time I get things digital is if I either know I love the game (Bloodborne) or if it's a deep sale (15 or...

    Mortal Kombat II (2025)

    MK 2021: "White men can eat shit and die!" MK 2026: "Alright here's Johnny Cage and he's the main dude! Hell yeah!" (then they job him out for most of the movie and make him Kitana's bitch in the first fight) They burned through Noob in this movie. Quan-Chi and revenants shouldn't have even...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Rocket Town should be early (hell it should have been in Part 2). Having it "late" is kind of bizarre. That whole section was used to introduce Cid. Well, since he's completely different now and all sanitized and nice, guessing Rocket Town will just be the later version of it from Disc 2.

    Who me? It sounded more like you were just asking a legitimate question. Why did they use a 12 year old in the game?

    Is she Indian? Kind of funny because the Microsoft CEO is an Indian guy and there's that stereotype going around about how Indians hire other Indians for all the important positions. Regardless, I don't know anything about what's going on in the XBox side of things. People seem to like her...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Sounds like the game is pretty much ready and the Switch 2 version's performance issues are holding it up. The first two were in Spring 2020 and Spring 2024, so this one being Spring 2027 puts it about a year earlier than I expected. COVID kinda added a year to all of the normal timing cycles...

    Stellar Blade (April 26th, PS5)

    Stellar Blade sequel on the way. New main character, and uses fist weapons instead of swords. Not sure how I feel about the new main character, because she looks like a kid. From the back, and just body-wise, she's like a petite woman which is great. However every time they show her face, I'm...

    Resident Evil Veronica

    I think every RE fan is glad they didn't skip this and go to RE5. This was a main series RE in every sense except having a number, and probably should have been called RE5. Claire looks super hot here. She's already quite attractive in the RE2 remake, but they made her hotter. Look at how good...

    Yeah it's pretty much 1:1 with X2. Wish they'd shown more of them though. Tifa's outfits are the ones everybody's gonna want to see. Kind of a waste that we got this vast outfit collection after losing Aerith. We're down 50% of the attractive grown women in the game and they drop fashionquest on...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    The fact that this isn't clear, and that they decided to have weird mindfuck games with Cloud, is super annoying. Aerith being laid to rest is one of the most potent scenes in video game history and I don't even think they recreated it in the second game, too busy jumping around with the POV to...

    Summer game fest 2026

    What's with the neon purple everywhere now? Often accompanied by neon blue or neon orange. Well, the purple/orange combination can occasionally look nice, like the Visions of Mana cover artwork. Most of the time though it just makes everything look like "dei baby magenta" or whatever the kids...

    Mortal Kombat II (2025)

    This movie was dumb as shit. People went to it to see Johnny Cage, the audience clearly loved Johnny Cage, though the crowd reactions to him got a bit muted by halfway through the movie because the movie spent so much time making him look like a total fucking loser and by extension mocking the...

    Gave up on the smoker box and brought it back to Home Depot to get my $50 back. Lawl. Tried a few methods for getting it to smoke wood, none worked. Whether the chips were wet or dry, didn't matter. The box would heat up and everything in it would just sit there. What I do now is drop some wood...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    It's worth it with a team yeah. Dunno about duo, but a trio all in communication with each other can have a ball with it. Otherwise you're just hoping to get decent randoms every time out. As a duo, I think it'll always give you a third random and that makes the bosses stronger. Dunno if there's...

    Euphoria

    Not crazy about how they changed the main Euphoria banner ad to replace Sydney's legs with a snake. Her character isn't any sort of diabolical conniving manipulator or anything, she's more of a dumb blonde who gets herself in trouble. Wondering if this is some subliminal underhanded thing...

    I've only seen one Sydney sex scene from The Voyeurs and it knocked my fucking socks off. Like Skinemax-quality sex scene. Her riding the guy on the couch could probably turn a gay dude straight. Does she have more sex scenes in that show? How is the other chick? Do they lez out? I guess what...

    The thermometer and being able to add charcoal without picking up the grate are both good QOL features, I think it was worth the extra $100. Also the being easier to empty out the ashes with no mess. I usually get the coals glowing red and on fire, then dump them into the grill, spread them...

    Except that demographically, black people have less money to go around than anyone except Latinos. If I were looking for a profitable audience, I'd target more numerous groups with more money. Now if we're getting into the weeds of how black people are more likely to make big purchases / go...

    That's a cool idea, use the chimney starter for the wood. I could also just run the wood chips through the chimney starter with the coal from the beginning, ya? I'll try it with the $45 metal box and I'll try it with the chimney starter and see which has better results for wood chips. I have a...

    I've had a tough time getting wood chips to work in general. I put them directly on the coals and they burst into flames, I put them in a foil pack and they just sit there and sit there and eventually the coals start to go out and they're still sitting there. Looking into it more, the part I...

    That makes the bad smoke. Looking for the blue smoke, as per: That helps. I'm gonna try smoking in one of these later today with some wood chips: Also, I'm wondering if it's worth it to get the Premium Weber Original Kettle for $230 over the regular Weber Original Kettle for $130. Looks...

    What are you playing?

    Battlefield 5 only had 3 campaign scenarios (plus the intro) when I played it back at launch. As the guy who plays campaigns in these things, I heard they later added another one, The Last Tiger, where you play as a German tank crew at the end of WW2. So of course I had to go check that out. Not...

    Mortal Kombat II (2025)

    This movie was pretty stupid. Some parts felt like a kid wrote them, like when a character died and then just got back up and became a deity and flew away. Johnny was portrayed as a complete joke for most of the movie. Not sure why it was necessary to have Kitana kick the absolute shit out of...

    Nobody answered my wood chip questions so I just winged it. Had the foil pouch in there at a high point of about 370 and it never smoked. Eventually the coals were in danger of cooling off, it was taking so goddamn long, so I took it off and just got my steak going. Not sure what I did wrong. I...

    And then Palmer immediately shows up acting like a clown and piloting a mech! Hilarious! Remember when the original game just let you sit there in almost-silence with the wind howling, before the characters just got up and kept keeping on? Modern media can't let you be alone with your thoughts...

    For whatever it's worth, search results say to just sprinkle the wood chips directly on the burning charcoal before putting the food on. I'll just do both, put the pouch on the opposite side of the grill and also sprinkle a few wood chips directly on the coals. Problem is, if it ends up being...

    Now I have questions about smoking with wood chips. In this video he says 2 or 3 times that this is for a gas grill. Does that actually matter? Can I put a smoke pouch on a normal grill? Also, once 10-15 minutes go by and the pouch is smoking...what then? Add the meat to the grill, while...

    Remake is for people who loved the Midgar parts of FF7, Rebirth is for people who loved the non-Midgar parts. I knew a lot of people who didn't like Midgar, but I was always a Midgar guy. I wish Remake had expanded on it more. I think Chapter 3 was the only part that actually showed us more of...

    That reminds me, I've got spray-on beef tallow. Had good results with that in the pan, haven't tried it with the grill yet. I could try that instead of truffle oil one of these times. Olive oil has proven unneeded because the "special occasion" truffle oil is noticeably better and I just use it...

    I don't go for dessert much anymore because of having to watch weight more than I used to. No ice cream and whatnot. One thing I will go for is rice pudding, those can be really good if done right.

    That might be the most horrifying idea I've heard in a long time. The idea that post-death, you could be revived in some sort of stasis with no body and unable to do anything. Or getting hit by a car, waking up in the future as a disembodied head, and being a test subject / component in a...

    TLDR: Probably nothing important. I complain about women and yet make little effort to broaden the net and get a better sample size / catch decent ones. I'll need to do that, and possibly lower my standards a bit, before I get any more old. One of these days I'll actually visibly start to show...
