Sakura Wars Retrospective, Part 8 – Sakura Wars: The Movie
YouTube video by MattoBii
youtu.be
NEW VIDEO!
With the massive popularity of the Sakura Wars series, it was only a matter of time before it made its way to the big screen. The movie is also a surprisingly significant addition to the series canon!
... But is it any good?

i would not have believed how terrible this was if i didn't watch it myself. it might be the worst thing i've ever heard. this is how little corporations think of you and art and everything that isn't capital
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them
A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

The Black Friday State of Emergency Stream (possibly feat. Gradius V and/or Ikaruga)
I've always wanted to stream State of Emergency on Black Friday. Looking upon this sad excuse for a game though, I'm not entirely sure we can stomach it. Will we make it?

Steam is like how California operates as a second regulatory structure for the US because it's too big to not obey
Steam being a pseudo monopoly is complicated. It's obviously got downsides, but the AI disclosure requirement makes it so realistically everything releasing on PC has to disclose or risk getting banned right off the PC platform forever and it's the only way we'd find out about some of this shit.

Guys, as a ex call center employee, this is fucking DESPERATION BEHAVIOR.
Pizza and ice cream once may be an entire year's planned discretionary budget for a team, they do NOT value them enough to provide common comfort. If their doing this? Their not just scared, their TERRIFIED.

Spoke with a source who told me the call volume is so high, a call center for both Mastercard & Visa is bringing out pizza and ice cream so agents don’t quite amid the rush. Long waits are causing dropped calls.
What you’re doing is working. Call MC & Visa.

akira yamaoka viewed his role in that game as a way to introduce hundreds of indie musicians to people in hopes that even just one would resonate with each player and let them find a new favorite. this is a disgusting and depressing repudiation of one of the few human and good things about the OG

God I hate remaster/remake culture. Losing my mind at how many reviews/comments I've seen that complain about the vertex jitter in the new version of R-Type Delta.
"Wobbly polygons" are part of the charm, aesthetic, and visual identity of PS1 games.
Old games are *supposed to look old*.

What a great day to be thankful for what you have! Once you start to see the value in “obsolete” technology, it’s impossible to justify just how short our upgrade cycles have become.
Call me crazy, but I think TVs, phones, computers, etc SHOULD last for decades.

1. It would appear that in recent reporting, the BBC is now using the phrase "biological male who identifies as a woman" when they mean to talk about a transgender woman.
This is an incredibly demeaning way to talk about transgender women in news pieces.

BBC Now Calling Trans Women 'Biological Males Who Identify As Women'
These stories come in the aftermath of allegations that a small but mighty cabal of “LGBT reporters” had somehow seized control of the BBC and “censored” right-wing views.
