It's pretty funny that Hbomberguy's last 3 targets have been:
- a serial plagiarist that deserves to get run off the internet
- a serial plagiarist that deserves to get run off the internet
- a dev team that made a 7/10 deus ex game
There's so many awful trans related jokes on the internet, so to have an actually nice, non-toxic joke like that "Roger" one-liner at the end? It feels real delightful.
...So am I just overreacting by thinking its actually really fucked up that a dude ended The Game Awards by sneaking up to the mic and calling Bill Clinton a Jew? Like a week after the Kanye shit?
This feels way more yikes than just "lol, a kid interrupted, what a meme".
Well, unfortunately, we only have four GameCube controllers, and there’d be five of us, so I guess first we’d need to decide who’s gonna sit out for the first round of City Trial in Kirby’s Air Ride.
The one small upside to The Game Awards being shitty to the winners is that this reaction image is gonna plague Geoff Keighley for the rest of his career.
Props to the absolute moron at whatever company owns Kotaku for removing Kotaku’s article critical of their ad policy, thus guaranteeing that it’ll be the biggest news story in the gaming scene for several days.

Me: hurt me
Her: *bites my earlobe*
Me: wait
Her: *scratches my neck*
Me: stop, you’re supposed to say something deep so this tweet goes viral
Her: *some third kinky thing*
Me: fucking OW
They’re currently in the middle of Avengers 4 reshoots, so I really hope that Chris Evans has written at least some of these Trump slamdunks while sitting in his Captain America costume.
I literally thought to myself “it would be really funny if this is just some TikToker discovering the Z button trick by accident” and that’s exactly what it was.
i’ll never forgive nintendo for giving us these pants and then putting the matching shirt like 7 miles away
the entire tutorial i was stressing OUT thinking i missed it somewhere and even considering restarting my save file since i couldn’t climb back up to the first area
Remember how before Covid, content creators had to actively plan around being out of commission from "con flu" after getting back from these events because they were such a petri dish?
Lemme distract you with some REAL GAME JOURNALISM:
On the Xbox Series X, Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts now loads so fast that it’s impossible to see any of the loading screen jokes on LOG’s face.

ME READING ORDER OF THE PHOENIX: wow, jk rowling is really good at writing a bigoted middled aged woman that doesn't know when to shut the fuck up, i wonder where she got the inspiration
TWITCH: We’re going to tell you about possible algorithm changes before they happen.
YOUTUBE: We’re going to change the most important part of new people discovering your videos, and only inform people in a non-public tweet AFTER we’ve started doing it.
I’m so done.
We're all having a good time with Bowsette drawings right now, but in about a week MatPat's going to explain to a bunch of 12 year olds that reptiles don't have tits, and that is all of our fault.
In retrospect, it’s funny that we had 3 years of the Zelda community theorizing “maybe Ganondorf isn’t all bad in this one” and the latest Tears of the Kingdom trailer opens with him going “fuck every inch of this entire country, literally kill them all”.
Nintendo not dedicating an entire separate team from Sakurai to make cool Smash fighter costumes for Ultimate post-launch is such an easy miss on their part.
reasons i will be boycotting luigi’s mansion 3:
- an expert on twitter with 80 followers told me luigi is just a stretched mario model
- wtf, they even have the same voice actor, just hire more people nintendo
- WHY CAN’T I SUCK EVERY GHOST THAT’S EVER BEEN IN THE SERIES???
UNPOPULAR BUT POSITIVE TAKE: Every main series Zelda game is good or unique enough to be someone's favorite, which is why discussions over which is the "best" get so heated.
If Nintendo just gave Purah one line of dialogue saying “Oh yeah, sure was weird when all the Sheikah stuff went back into the ground”, Zelda Twitter would be about 30% less annoying right now.
My hot take for today is that the original New Super Mario Bros. doesn’t have a bland style at all, it just gets lumped in with its unambitious sequels. It’s bright, vibrant, and does a lot of fun subversions of SMB1.
Nintendo had both Breath of the Wild and Mario Odyssey in 2017.
Sony has both God of War and Spider-Man in 2018.
I legitimately feel bad for Microsoft.
If you ever feel bad about an unfinished project, just remember that this is still what the Themes section of the Nintendo Switch menu looks like 5 years later.
Shoutouts to DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS for being the greatest movie title of all time for about 20 minutes before immediately being usurped by THOR: LOVE AND THUNDER.
I’m sorry if this is just fanning the flames, but MatPat being called out for misleading clickbait by a god like Toby Fox is going to have me high for the rest of the week.
Picturing the Hogwarts Legacy social media person finally numbing themselves to the “if I buy this am I transphobic?” discourse and then getting blindsided by “but what about the problematic giant spiders??”
"Netflix fires and cancels multiple creative projects so that it can fund the biggest game show prize pool in history, based on a show about people throwing away their lives to try and escape the crushing weight of capitalism" is certainly a very 2022 feeling moment.
Nintendo could put the Zodiac Killer's messages in the background of a trailer, and Zelda YouTubers would have solved the JFK assassination with it 6 hours later.
I'm sorry, but all of us Nintendo fan's getting hyped up for weeks for a Smash Bros character reveal, only to have the big ending surprise of The Game Awards being Vin Diesel's PS2 face?
That's objectively the funniest thing that's ever happened.
Condolences to all the people melting down because The Pokemon Company did not disappoint them in the way they would have liked to be disappointed today.
It is VERY obvious when playing AC Odyssey that Kassandra is the more fleshed out playable character, so all of the people that complain about characters being half-ass added just for diversity? Congrats, your only real example is a male Assassin's Creed protagonist.
Among many details I learned while reporting this piece: the developers of Assassin's Creed Odyssey wanted Kassandra to be the only playable lead, but Ubisoft's marketing team and creative lead Serge Hascoët wouldn't allow it. Women don't sell, they said.
Seems real weird that a lot of people still support

when it's been known for over a year that he manipulated, abused and assaulted another video creator.
Tell me you didn’t pay attention to Samus’ animations and body language without telling me you didn’t pay attention to Samus’ animations and body language,

CHRIS PRATT: Have you ever driven a go-kart?
It's fascinating to me that Incognito Mode has transformed its purpose from being "i want to watch porn" to "i want to search up something that i don't want the algorithm to shove down my throat later."
*pulls out the world’s biggest megaphone*
Nintendo always leaves just enough wiggle room in every version of Link and Zelda so that you can interpret their relationship however you want. Zelink shippers are correct, the “Link is a twink” crowd is correct, EVERYONE IS CORRECT-
Literally every person who’s tweeted at me defending Chris Hardwick has also defended Trump’s child concentration camps recently on their Twitter timelines, so congrats on being huge pieces of shit in multiple ways 💕
*new footage of king k rool in smash comes out*
you: looks like he’s got some i-frames after his short hop f-air that could make him more competitively viable than we initially thought due to his down b’s input lag and-
