Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is great fun.

Not really played the previous versions, but they're all included, with a ton of game characters. My boy keeps using Samus, and I just got beaten by a poodle from Animal Crossing which was a touch embarrassing.

I love the random shit though, like halfway through a fight you realise you're being attacked by chickens, or Pikachu with a jet pack or something.

So of my fireteam of Four, one person sent the invitations. One friend got his beta invite on Wednesday, one took till Thursday afternoon and its Friday and I am still awaiting. Don't know what is the problem with these invites but this is hell of annoying.

Division 2 looks great. Same as the first game but more polished, smoother

So Paradox (the owners of White Wolf and all things World of Darkness-y) are now running a "dating" app for vampires called "tender" . Supposedly this is an ARG for a new Vampire: The Masquerade game.

Despite Bloodlines being one of my favorite games of all time, I'm very cautious of this development. Whether this will be anything good will depend on who ends up making whatever the future game this might be.

Exodus reviews are coming in. Not bad, not stellar.

Anybody else watch the Nintendo direct? It was awesome.

Yeah, really enjoyed it. Link's Awakening was a total surprise and looks sooo good. Astral Chain is intriguing. Fire Emblem looks great.

Best of all, for me, Dragon Quest XI S Definitive Edition. Extra content AND the full orchestral score? Yes!! I was already planning to get it (again) so I could replay it on handheld with the Draconian options enabled, but now it's nailed on. Give me a super special collector's edition please!

I am mostly enamoured with Nintendo surprise releasing a "free" Tetris Battle Royal for Nintendo Online. Finally some real insentive to get and use the service.

Exodus metacritic 84
New dawn metacritic 74

Is Rage 2 gonna win the post-apoc shooter competition of 2019?

[Aptorian]

Reggie Fils Aime, the president of Nintendo of America is retiring.

My body was not ready for that news.

[Morgoth]

THQ Nordic shit themselves, and it's hillarious and sad both at the same time.





jesus, getting tweets to show properly was trickier than I expected.

They're not loading for me but is it the 8chan thing? If so, yeah, that's an amazing pr fuck-up.

Yeah, it's incredibly stupid. I can't even begin to fathom what the PR Director was thinking. Surely he'll be fired for this.

Huh, that's weird. The link seems to work, and it worked when I posted it this morning. But yeah, I can't get them to load either anymore.

Could you explain for those not in the know?

THQ Nordic is a major games publisher. Their PR Director figured it was a good idea to arrange an AMA on 8Chan. 8Chan was created by people who thought 4Chan was too censored. 8Chan is excluded from Google searches because of the amount of child pornography that gets posted there.

Surprisingly, this was not a good idea. What's even worse though is that the PR Director of this major international games publisher actively and positively responded to questions regarding child porn in their games and sticking it to SJWs.

8chan is basically /b/ but with all restrictions released. Why would you ever ask /b/ anything literally ever? Massive brainlet moment this.

Child porn in THQ games? What?

Man will never work again
