That's Fortnite bruh

Living in a cultural bubble might have its perks I guess, but it's baffling to me that anyone with basic interest of video games wouldn't recognize Heihachi and Tracer alone and that's just going on popularity-level, not appreciation of inspired character designs. Tbf I'll concede that Street Fighter might've been better for that comparison, but whatever.

Was this the version of the movie initially pitched as "So...does Rapture need to be underwater?" EDIT: Definitely not. That screenplay does sound awesome.

I'm on track to becoming like the humans in Wall-E if I don't diet and get more exercise in the near future, so hopefully I'll be chasing that high soon enough

True, increased activity buys more calories in meals. If you're regularly doing athlete-level workouts then you can eat what you want, when you want. It's seems almost like a cruel system when you think about it, but C'est la vie

Tbf the original's dialogue isn't exactly Kill Bill quality either to say the least, but it's still fun!

Nice quantitative analysis, bruh

Is Kuai Liang Sub-Zero's younger brother in the games? In retrospect the trailer definitely makes it seems like it could be setting up that twist. Alright, I'm invested again.

I don't disagree about Sigma 2. The original was attempting something quite different with it's grindhouse martial arts movie-inspired dismemberment and a combat system based on tackling massive amounts of enemies at once. S2 ditched that in favor of a return to more of the same combat in part one. I don't think it's bad per se, but it is more of the same whereas NG2 was trying something new, and that makes it reasonable to be disappointed. Regardless of how we feel though, Microsoft still owns the IP of Black and the original NG2, so those versions were never going to be in this collection. But since gore was again added to the Vita port, maybe it will be present here, as unlikely as it seems (this collection definitely looks like it will be a portjob, similar to the Devil May Cry one)

K. An opinion, and you're entitled to it, but I disgree! Also it seems difficult to prove that MK, Overwatch and to a lesser extent Tekken characters aren't objectively well recognized and well received for the most part (both. within and beyond gaming culture), which was my point

Does it really take that much emotional and intellectual labor to figure out I'm talking about the medium of games, not film?

Could be wrong, but I looked it up and he seems to be a new character specific to the movie. The MK series is up there with Overwatch and Tekken as having arguably the most iconic and interesting characters in the medium. How the fuck is any screenwriter's first thought "none of these characters are interesting enough to be a protagonist" lmao EDIT: I guess it's possible there could be a twist at the end revealing them as one of the iconic characters...but why?

Seems ok so far. The only thing that sucks...and it REALLY sucks...is the idea of making a superfluous new character for the story to revolve around. This is the kind of trope you ALWAYS see in bad video game adaptations and for that reason alone I'm fairly sure this will not be very good.

There was a comprehensive rundown in some reddit post but /ninjagaiden seems to be down right now so I can't link it. Basically, some weapons were removed, some added. Less emphasis on fighting large waves of enemies vs small groups who are tougher to fight one on one, added chapters where you play as another character, some removed enemies, added ones like the statue of Liberty and Buddha statue, and other various minor tweaks and changes. It's all pretty subjective in terms of whether they make the game better or worse, but the censorship of the stylish gore is the main thing most will agree sucks and shouldn't have been changed. Oddly it was still in the Vita version, so it's possible it could appear again in the upcoming one. But all the gameplay footage of Sigma 2 in the trailers seems to go out of its way to show moments from fights where there wouldn't be any gore, so I'm doubtful.

How good/bad the changes are in the Sigma editions mostly comes down to personal taste but hopefully the bafflingly awful water effects in Sigma 1 and the purple mist "gore" in 2 are updated if nothing else. The blood was added back into Sigma 2 on Vita, so it's possible. So far this looks like basic PS3 port...but even if it is at this point I'll take it. There's still no other action game that plays like any version of the 3D Ninja Gaiden's

Psychonauts 2 (please lol)

When reflecting on what i played in the past year or two, TLOU2 will probably be what I think of most. Aside from that I think I spent the most time with Sekiro, Videoball, Far Cry Primal (I really should've started it sooner, it's fantastic), Crysis and Dreams.

It's happeniiiiiiing

(from Hup #1, 1987) which does a great job of explaining the cycles of American politics over the last few decades. 1st page Ruff Tuff Cream Puffs are mad! https://t.co/xDGTE0TjvF
