I wrote it in here, but lol, here's the neon sign: I'm OPEN TO WORK. Anything involving writing or editing words, editing video, teaching (I've been teaching college since 2009), and hey, I'm an EMT and got my phlebotomy cert a couple years back. I'm versatile!

When I heard people compare Hathaway to a James Bond film, I wasn't expecting such a direct reference to one of the most iconic Bond songs right out of the gate.

the longer it takes for the RE9 story DLC to have any information, the more i'll tack on to what i'm expecting:
-playable zeno with double jump
-customizable outfit (cannot remove anything or zeno will die)
-zeno laments the transphobia faced by morpheus duvall from dead aim
-ark thompson boss fight

congratulations to everyone who was looking forward to Dynasty Tactics 4: Fire Emblem Three Houses 2: Fortune's Weave

hoping against reason that their dalliances with AI don't poison this, because lies had a bo staff weapon made from pinocchio's long liar nose (sprouted from a painting, not your own face) which means this game will likely have ruby rocket slippers that let dorothy do foot dive or spinning bird kick

i disliked this game so much that it was my choice for off the deep end's kusoge grab bag episode which i guested on. whatever you think team ninja would do well in UA3 was done better by raven software in UA1

i'm as confused as you are by that statement

love it when a gamepad is advertised as being able to record up to 32 inputs on a macro button, as if modern games are simply full to bursting with occasions to do 32 consistent inputs in a row

in middle school, i always ran to my locker after lunch (for... fun i guess?)

not too long after al-qaeda claimed responsibility for 9/11, some guy leaving class at the same time would shout "bin laden!" at me

eventually, during one such moment, a teacher shouted "HEY

stop running in the hallway"

budget concerns and missed deadlines are only good reasons to drop a project if your company demonstrably knows how to spend money
This week, PlayStation announced that it had pulled out of publishing Hideo Kojima's next game, Physint. But the company didn't give a reason. So I made some calls.

Here's why PlayStation bailed and why Xbox snapped Kojima right up: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

IDEA: solo musician who sells a lot of tickets because his teen fanbase can't get enough of his four beautiful lawyers. the entertainment industry only interviews them and gets quotes like "yeah we gotta sit down and let him play us his little songs sometimes, you know how it is with musicians!!"

IDEA: one of those dead wife videos that a protagonist plays on repeat, but it's from a time when she was talking to a pet and going "hewwo widdle goo goo shmoomy goopbrain" or whatever

OBSTACLES FOR GUNDAM GAMES
❌publishing and promoting the worst ones
❌repeatedly covering the same eras, stories, and perspectives
❌story presented as contextless quotes, strung together and repeated ad nauseum in a way that barely makes sense even if you've seen the shows they're from
✅too much lore

i originally hoped the next retroid flip had the trio of one screen, d-pad up top, and inset controls

now i'm more annoyed that they did top d-pad AND my beloved digital triggers, but it's only on the cheaper model solely made to dunk on anbernic (with a chip too weak for most 3DS emulation)
