A screenshot from Metroid Prime 4: Beyond. Samus riding a piston out of a lava pit.

I tried to write my thoughts on Metroid Prime 4: Beyond. I don't really know what to make of Metroid Prime 4, but it feels like those behind the game struggled with this too.

Yeah that’s cool

There are now 10 toilets in Space

International Space Station: 4
Crew Dragon Docked at ISS: 1
Soyuz Docked at ISS: 1
Tiangong Space Station: 2
Shenzhou Docked at TSS: 1
Artemis II on way around Moon: 1

This will be the first time a toilet has left low earth orbit!

You can acquire Star Trek without paying anyone money! In fact I highly encourage doing so! All of our old entertainment is dead and owned by rich ghouls who want us to die, but the internet is an infinite entertainment replicator and you just gotta learn how to talk to it.

Nintendo originally selling little Mario dolls got a chuckle out of me.

Large boom in St. Paul, can see smoke and a fire now, not quite sure where it is though. Dale street?

pseudoregalia, is so cool. i'm there for the exploration, but don't sleep on the combat

Weird inverted image of Robocop due to a graphical glitch the game RoboCop: Rogue City gave me

Don't meet your heroes. After being my own personal RoboCop for around ten hours, it turns out RoboCop is more fun as a character to watch than he is to play.

the ending to "Cruis'n World" is fucking insane

Being a 30 year old series makes it unique, but especially how uses nostalgia in the story and feels like it's parodying a prior self does give some crash bandicoot in uncharted 4, stronger for me here though

I beat it like a week ago, but my opinion continues to grow on reflection.

2/2

Resident Evil: Requiem - good chance it'll be a touch point like ten years from now? mechanics complementing an interweaving storyline has been done before but at this scale? this successfully? Feels refreshing. Complaints I've seen are how some want more, but more 'what' differs

1/2

this morning anya taylor-joy was hit with a question that has never been asked before in the history of the universe

how dudes see themselves when they boot up Ridge Racer Type 4 for the millionth time

It's me. I'm dudes.
