Finally got around to watching Sinners and... it's kinda bad? Like, cool vibes, cool music, and then characters in a horror movie making the dumbest decisions imaginable over and over.

Damn, Metroid Prime 4 does not look great, huh? idk why they insist on giving Samus Federation buddies and bounty hunter rivals, I just want to be a space misanthrope and blow up planets without any yapping.

Finally getting around to reading the Berserk manga. Pretty fuckin good - I watched the '97 anime back in the day so I know the basics of the first arc, but the manga is much better on character development.

Excited to get to parts of the story I don't know.

Dude the romance options in Hades 2 suck. Let me romance Odysseus and Artemis you cowards!

Let's go Mena!!!

Crazy that Kakeru only lost to Mena too. Demon matchup for him.
August 4, 2025 at 6:21 AM
SF6 EVO time! Cheering for MenaRD.

Kinda thinking it will be Fuudo though. Also hoping to see Fuudo vs Leshar those boys be winning lately.

Kakeru always dangerous. AngryBird could easily win EVO again.

Then there's Xiaohai who doesn't even main this game lmao fuckin SNK freak.

12 and 13 kinda killed my enthusiasm for the series and it's never fully recovered.

14 has been pretty alright though, as a fun excuse to chat with friends and goof off. I'm a little mixed on the 7 remakes, but they're way better than 13.

Reading the Hobbit to my kid at bedtime. Today I got asked if I could pick a different voice for Smaug because it was "too scary". Eat your heart out, Benedict Cumberbatch.

Mario Kart is really the only switch 2 launch title? That's kind of scuffed, huh?
June 18, 2025 at 10:37 PM
RE9? Return to a nuked raccoon city? That's kinda sick.
June 6, 2025 at 11:00 PM
Damn, state of play was actually good.

New Arcsys Mahvel looks kinda sick.

Silent Hill f seems cool and spooky and vaguely Fatal Frame-ish?

FF: Tactics remaster is hype.

Capcom: Please! What will it take for you to play Ryu?

Daigo: Give Ryu a gun.
