Look At This Giant Machine. Just Look At It.

That makes now the perfect time for this fake oral history of the film’s climactic throwdown between the Tune Squad and the Monstars, done with all the self-regarding gravitas of an ESPN 30-For-30 documentary.

Between Kanye Westand Jay Rock, its clear that music videos that make ample use of Link’s expressions in Wind Waker is a thing. Further proof: this silly Wind Waker music video made last month by Kryptick Bidoof of Phil Collin’s sentimental ‘In The Air Tonight.’ So good!

No, The PS4 Doesn’t Have A “Wobbling” Problem

The PS4 does move if you press down on it. Is it a problem? No. I made a video to demonstrate the “wobble” issue, and what you can do to fix it. If you’re not familiar with the PS4’s wobble, when Giant Bomb did an unboxing earlier this week, they noticed that the console would…
