I cannot get Sayonara Wild Hearts out of my goddamned head. It's not just the music, it's the whole, damn...thing. Christ almighty that's one of the best games I've played this year.

Apparently Bioware posted a blog update yesterday about the state of Anthem and it's pretty much "We're listening." I feel really bad for the folks that bought this thing at launch. http://blog.bioware.com/2019/09/17/what-is-next-for-anthem/

I mean, do you not lab CrossTag at your local game bar while Super Madnes is playing a set?

Wow.

Watched a video of the unlockable skins in MUA 3 earlier this morning and...ehhhhhh.

The dude Gigguk put out a great tribute to KyoAni yesterday. Definitely set aside 10 mins of your time to take a look. https://youtu.be/bTl0BBrw3Y0

Hey Nintendo, happy for the Switch Lite and whatever Pro model you might be coming out with down the road. IF YOU COULD SETTLE DOWN FOR A MOMENT AND FIX THE JOY-CON DRIFT ISSUE I'D BE EVEN MORE HAPPY.

I realized what was bugging me about the Stadia pricing - it's a sub, but we're still buying full-priced games...to stream them. There isn't even a download. That seems...off.

Samurai Champloo peeps (and hip-hop peeps in general), Tsutchie put out a banger of a Summer track today that I can't get out of my head. So fun. Spotify link in the comments.

My one complaint with Lapis x Labyrinth is that there isn't enough of a show when one of your teammates dies or is downed (ironic for a game that is one big light show), since it's easy to get lost in the scrum of it all. Otherwise, brilliant little game.

Firewatch has been giving me the worst anxiety I've felt from a game. The story turns, open area and voice acting all drip with a kind of fear that I hate and love and can't seem to shake. I'm ready for it to be over, but I'll miss it when it's done.

Picked up MK11 for a little at-home date night shenanigans with the lady. And by picked up I mean rented because inevitable Komplete Edition.

Katana Zero is some trippy-ass, high-quality fun that freaks me out and keeps me locked in. This thing is a gem, please check it out.

Insert anecdote about cutting onions and holy shit this is really happening.

So I bought this from a vendor at my job last night. She said it was Akuma's Heaven sign, but I'm not sure that's the case (was a bit buzzed when I bought it). It does looks familiar, though. Does DToid know what this is?

Hey, with the new Travis Strikes Again update, did anyone else see some LB's and Aztec Stones refunded to you? Also shirts I bought before the update are back on sale again.

Bobby K with the wild bullshit from 2010. https://www.gamespot.com/articles/activision-games-to-bypass-consoles/1100-6226758/

Game of the Direct for me was Astral Chain. Holy shit, you could tell right away that Platinum had their hands all over that one. Hype ensued when Kamiya's name popped up in the trailer.

An unexpected discovery on my job's break room table this morning.

No joke, my heart kinda broke when Sakurai said, "Will I ever get a break?" during the Direct today. Guy really needs a vacation and a new project after Smash.

Nintendo locking the Dark Souls network test behind Nintendo Online is not only a Nintendo thing to do, but it's another dot on the list of how ass-backwards they're handling their service.

Well fuck that.

Pre-ordered Octopath at GS, walked out today with these sweet holographic character cards. One of the better pre-order bonuses I've picked up.

As someone who abhors gyro controls for...anything (even Switch DOOM), can anyone explain to me the magic that Splatoon 2's gyro stuff work? There's so much...delicious...precision.
