I think what caught me was the world. You’re right, it isn’t a mold-breaker. But it has personality for days. The art direction, how well it’s executed, the story and lore, and the music that makes it all feel legitimate are more than just an aesthetic choice, I think. It’s lightning caught in a bottle. Of course I Read more

I’m so jealous! I have a Steam Link. When I first got it, it wouldn’t work in my living room—not well, anyway—because it was over Wifi and running an ethernet cable would mean going past my front door which I wasn’t into. Since then I’ve rearranged and was psyched to finally use it, only the damn thing won’t boot. I Read more

I’m buying it over again when it drops on Switch. Honestly mostly so I can play it on my sexy ass TV. I mean a computer monitor is fine. But a game this lovingly illustrated deserves to be seen on a 55” TV. That it’s also portable as a Switch title is just…delicious. Read more

I’d love to. My room mate had a similar reaction, playing for a similar amount of time. So did a friend, who I bought it for, although he’d never admit it to me (didn’t have to...he just stopped playing). Frankly, I did the same thing, not because I was turned off, but rather because I wasn’t hooked right off the bat. Read more

Playing through Hollow Knight for a third time. First run was 28 hours, no frills. Second run was 15 hours and I both found and missed different stuff from the first time. This third run I’m aiming for a higher completion rate, and to sample the newer DLC. I want to fight The Radiance this time around, max out my Read more

You folks are going to go with an uneven number, and still find no room for Muse’s H.A.A.R.P.? Read more

I’m not here to defend The Last Jedi, though it is a perfectly forgivable way to spend 2 and a half hours. I’m just here to point out that you’re giving Rogue One an award for literally pandering to you with references, regardless of its (few and far between) merits as a film, something meant to entertain.

Why would the Star Wars fans make anything more toxic? The lead isn’t a woman. Read more

I too keep mine primarily as a Smash machine. I’m surprised they updated the Switch to feature the GC adapter without announcing a Smash for Switch but as long as we’re wondering and until they come out with the miracle revelation that not only will there be VC but also all my old buys will transfer, I won’t be Read more

I haven’t seen the Kotaku censor fish in years. Holy shit. Read more

Sigh. Sometimes games from Japan feel like one big fedora tip. Read more

I bought Destiny 2 before release, because I hadn’t paid close enough attention and thought it was out on PC the same day as consoles. Around the time I realized I’d made a mistake, I also realized none of my friends gave a shit and were skipping it. One bought it, in the end. I played it for about an hour with the Read more

How recently? I tried to use the GC adapter maybe back in June, and although I was told it was possible, I just couldn’t get it to work.

This controller and I have a weird relationship. I bought it because the refurbs were being sold for like $90, and I’m a sucker for deals. I got it, and immediately realized I had no idea what to do with it. I tried wearing the back paddles while playing Dark Souls and kept bumping them, wasting Estus sips. Also Read more

The new Firefox is dope, seriously. Made me switch back after about 5 years on Chrome. It’s snappy and clean. Read more

I’m so excited for you, man. Building a PC is so much fun, and it’s just...different, having a PC you made compared to some pre-built thing. It’s really *yours*. If I had all the money I could stand, I’d build them just for the hell of it.
