Oh cool, new horrors just dropped
Really getting more and more into the belief that live service games were one of, if not the worst thing to happen in video games. Complete decimation of dozens of studios, thousands of jobs lost, diluted products, minimal payoff, it’s just a fucking blight at this point

I think everyone's gotta have at least one food that they could do something like this with. For me it's crème brûlée in the northeast, it's kinda remarkable how many places can't get a custard to set
“I’ve reviewed over 50 sticky toffee puddings” is an incredibly powerful way to begin a video

I really haven't played enough of these games to be honest, I only played through them in like 2023 for the first time, but:

1. Resident Evil 2 (2019)
2. Resident Evil 4 (2023)
3. Resident Evil 7
4. Resident Evil Village
5. Resident Evil 3 (2020)
6. Resident Evil 4 (2005)
7. Resident Evil (2002)
We're back with a one off poll ahead of Resident Evil's 30th anniversary next month.

Rank as many mainline (see image for what counts) Resident Evil games as you wish. If you strongly dislike a game, it is better not to rank it at all.

If you need help ranking, see follow-up tweet

Not weird at all! Very normal to close an airport and all surrounding roads and then say “uhh nevermind”!
EL PASO, Texas (AP) — FAA says it has lifted temporary closure of airspace over El Paso, Texas, and all flights to resume.

Last night I went to bed earlier than I normally do, rolled my alarm about 30 minutes earlier, got a solid 9 hours of sleep, and it’s easily the worst I’ve felt waking up in months. This is bullshit, I should have a temporary double jump with how much rest I got

While I’m sure they’re both fun and am planning to play both at some point, I’m not super loving that two of the most popular games at this moment are a game about trading babies like stocks and a game essentially titled Cat Eugenics

I’ve never been more okay with arbitrarily deciding a franchise stopped making games than I am with believing that the last Yakuza game that ever came out was Infinite Wealth

gamefaqs walkthrough for fester’s quest uploaded in 2026 where it becomes extremely evident two paragraphs in that the writer is going through a very messy divorce

While I agree with all of you, I do think it’s been long enough now that somebody is going to need to come up with a new joke about drafts that isn’t “you are a coward if you use them”

I think I am on the side of the curlers being a little bit too mic'd up, I'm hearing the exact amount of phlegm this dude has in his nose right now

Jesus at least get them in focus man

My boss is insisting on a meeting at noon and I do need them to understand that if the meeting is not about curling then it just won't be sticking in this particular person's brain

Honestly if Malinowski ran somewhere else on a platform that now primarily consisted of "I will fucking bury AIPAC if it's the last thing I do" he'd probably be a frontrunner for me just based on that
BIG NEWS FROM NJ-11: former Rep. Tom Malinowski concedes, congratulates Analilia Mejia on a positive and well-run campaign, blames AIPAC for his loss, and promises to vigorously oppose anyone AIPAC backs against Mejia in June

Team Figure Skating is great because you see some of the most passionate dancing done with perfect synchronicity and then you find out that the song they danced to was Paint it Black, and not the Rolling Stones version but the one that was made for the Westworld TV show
