Discord added "favorite game" lists and other profile stuff but they're missing the key video games! Insane! At least I can suggest that they add it.

A thumbnail showing the title of this video and Kamen Rider driving out of a garage, that is exploding and on fire, on a motorcycle with a terrible prop child on his back. It is fucking awesome.

I'm not going to blame my poor performance playing Contra yesterday on this but I need to remember to get closer to the TV when I play Ninja Gaiden.

Remedy issues "profit warning" following launch of FBC: Firebreak as recent overhaul fails to turn things around:

"Despite improved player and sales metrics after the update, sales have not reached Remedy’s internal targets".

Contra can’t be that hard, right?

-Bob Gets NES Hard: Contra-

Bob may be good at modern action games but he needs to get hard, NES HARD. To add stakes, if Bob finishes his first ever playthrough of Contra (WITHOUT the contra code) in under 2 1/2 hours, I will go straight into Plok!

I wonder if the entire prison island was just assets from a scrapped game and the whole thing was just supposed to be on the cruise ship.

Hope you like watching a completely random set of action set pieces with terrible VFX. At least Michelle Rodriguez is here to distract from how the movie is just kind of bad.
