Happy New Year fellas. This is my final review of 2025.

A total of 108 pieces of art I've experienced across all different visual mediums (mainly comics, movies, video games, and shows). It may seem like a large number, but, in the grand scheme of things, I think I could've been doing more tbh.
108. Bleach Vol. 1
4.5/5

Originally read this on Dec. 29. This was a strong start for this manga, I didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did. I likely won't be able to get my hands on the rest of the series anytime soon, but this was great.

Nintendo doesn't like people not spending $80 on Mario Kart World I guess.
CONFIRMED: the Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundle has officially ended production according to an internal GameStop memo

"This bundle SKU has now reached end of lifecycle, and additional units will no longer be produced. Future replenishment of Nintendo Switch 2 will be the base console."

Hate to be so negative about this, but man it makes me sad that the old MSRP for new Nintendo games is now considered an "on sale" price. We live in an interesting timeline.

Is it true that it feels a bit like a Mario & Luigi game? Admittedly I've been really annoyed by all the hype beasts this game has, but I have been thinking of trying it out myself.

So the latest Twitter trend is calling everything that is even slightly corny or silly "quirk chungus millennial writing Reddit"

I'm so glad that I just enjoy the shit I enjoy instead of being so miserable over this. These people can't enjoy anything

If quips are quirk chungus then call me Gex

In Diddy Kong Racing DS, the message when connection is lost during Download Play is "LOST ALL CHILDREN". The cartridge is internally called a "parent" and the downloaded instances its "children". While this would make sense to the developers, it has the potential to confuse or scare players.

Looking at how Sonic Crossworlds is already handling the guest characters pretty well (minus the lack of voice acting which is a significant loss for sure) makes me all the more curious what they'll do for the TMNT.

I don't want to wait until the end of 2026 to play them...

This truly encapsulates the push for AI in everything.

Amazon, one of the wealthiest companies on the planet, still opts to use "Gen" AI to churn out this farce, when it could easily contract out a studio to put soul into its dubs.

For soulless suits, it's always be about saving a few extra bucks.
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them

A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

I'm not even that big of a fan of most English dubs, but man the fact this was approved is insane to me. Anyone who speaks English, even as a second language, can tell this sounds godawful.

I have no idea who's at fault for this decision, whether that be Amazon or the original Japanese companies.

Yep. This is the main reason I haven't fired off on buying Metaphor yet, I don't trust Atlus/SEGA to not release a "Metaphor Royal" on me the second I decide to buy it.
Sega finally admits low sales of games may have been impacted by players waiting for "definitive editions", like Persona 5 Royal or SMT 5: Vengeance

I do think it's really funny that the likely reason why ND focused so much on remakes and remasters is because they're the only thing they could get done without needing to take at least 5 years in development.

I don't mean to keep harping on this, but modern dev cycles just seem so strenuous.

Admittedly, Jungle Beat is one of the few DK games I've never played (alongside King of Swing and Jungle Climber), but its still really awesome to see this. Bananza embraces so much of DK's history from what I've seen of it, dying to get my hands on a Switch 2 so I can actually play it
Ninja Kong and Ghastly King from Jungle Beat are the next statues!

I have pretty basic tastes (heavy on scrimblo bimblos), but I always have fun doing these, so here's my take on it.

I added a little disclaimer about where I got the custom series logos that I didn't slap together myself, but everything else is official artwork.
