To be fair, that's something you could live on for quite a while. Source: any of the times I've lived in my car.

Tax return came back already! We only got back 1/4 of what they withheld, but that's still a bunch of money, woohoo!

Related, I just now noticed the PS Store optimistically has a category for "Cross-Platform" lmao

Super Size Me was dumb and just made me want to eat McDonalds.

Celeste question: About the blue hearts: Without just straight up telling me where they are, is it just a matter of combing every inch of the levels and hoping to find a secret entrance or is there usually a sign that the room is around? Because the room in the fourth chapter felt like it was barely hidden at all but I can't seem to find the one in the first stage.

The blue heart isn't necessarily in plain sight. You've probably found the room that it's in already

edit: if you do want to know where to look in chapter 1 it's the satellite dish room

If there's anything in a stage that looks like it might be a puzzle, it is the blue heart. There's a few bits of Fez like stuff in there.

Super High Me was even more dumb because "I'm gonna get stoned every day for a month" is what every stoner already does

They jumped the shark with the second game almost a decade ago. V3 is the perfect ending, it’s the Homer’s Enemy of video games except in this case the head writer has the pull to let it rest.

Super Size Me is a movie that shows the importance of scientific peer review because even if you ignore the fact he probably cheated, no one has been able to replicate his results like at all, showing most of the abnormalities probably had more to do with him.

Like I'm not saying that eating fast food is healthy but his data in that movie suuuuuuuuccccccckkkkkked

So a streamer got all of the gold thingies in SotC PS4. It unlocked a secret area below the main temple area that contains the "Sword of Dormin", which looks like it kills Colossi in one hit. No word on if it changes the ending or anything yet, though that seems unlikely.

I'd say the same for Inside but it's like three hours long so.

i feel like i have to play bioshock infinite because i'm very curious about the game that exploded through the power of dumb internet slapfights over an argument that literally hasn't been relevant since the year it released because it was so pathetically meaningless

Now you know how I don't like to use the sit-down gun, but this morning we just don't have time for mucking about.

I don't get the hate for Bioshock Infinite, but I didn't really get the love for Bioshock, either. They're games with mediocre, low impact shooting, an interesting aesthetic, and a story I don't care for.

bioshock 1 is an ok game that pulls out some interesting themes and sort of manages to follow through on them even though the way it does is ultimately really stilted, is my take on basically every bioshock i've played because bioshock 2 crashed too much in the first hour for me to decide i wanted to see if it actually did anything with its story and after that i realized i kinda just wanted to play prey
