And all it took was greed.
- Comment on Fallout TV creators saved “iconic elements” for season 2 so it doesn’t feel like they just skimmed Wikipedia 4 weeks ago:
Yes, bit I think they lean in rather than lean on.
- Comment on The Fallout TV show's Season 1 is now available to stream 5 weeks ago:
Just finished first episode. Seems good so far, but less quirky than I expected.
- Comment on Tiny Tires picks up the legacy of the classic Micro Machines racing series 5 weeks ago:
I used to love this as a kid too. When I saw hot wheels games, I gave them a go, hoping for a nostalgia rush. No such luck. I remember playing with 7 friends at a birthday party, which was revolutionary for the time. Each controller used by 2 people. The cartridge had 2 extra controller slots on the top. Of course friends had to bring spares, as nobody had more than 2. 8 people around a 12 inch tv screen, even if they were pre puberty is still quite a squish, lol.
- Comment on TV Tropes' list of video game spiritual successors 1 month ago:
Lol, the last of us as spiritual successor to uncharted. They have some similarities in control and game engine, but hugely different tone, themes and gameplay.
One a heartfelt zombie horror survival, the other a spiritual successor to tomb raider, itself a spiritual successor to Indiana Jones.
This list is not useful.
- Comment on Nick Offerman Slams ‘Homophobic Hate’ Against His ‘The Last of Us’ Episode: ‘It’s Not a Gay Story. It’s a Love Story, You A–hole!’ 2 months ago:
The point is that nobody calls Cinderella a straight story. Yes, it was great representation and the reason it was great was because it wasn’t cliché or leaning into stereotypes for characterisation.
It was certainly a gay story, but it was first and foremost a love story. The only people who would choose to name it a gay story first and foremost are saying so to minimize it or demean it.
You can be technically correct and still call it wrong.

I don’t recall them naming it. However, it was in the geographic region of America, even if society had broken down.
They also didn’t identify the characters as gay. They could have been bi or pan. That do snt seem to be a point of contention though, oddly.

Yet nobody is here calling it an American love story.
- Comment on ‘The future of TV and streaming is here’: Foxtel’s Hubbl will launch with all the major streamers 2 months ago:
This device doesn’t seem to do anything new. Wo, given their janky apps, I expect it to be worse than their competitors, like Chromecast, fire stick etc. Amazon has years of experience and still struggles. I don’t see foxtel doing better.
And given foxtels history, it will be overpriced. This seems doomed to failure.
- Comment on Battlestar Galactica Reboot Moves Forward at Peacock With New Showrunner 4 months ago:
It was great, but that’s really why they are rebooting. Any successful show is more likely to get an instant audience if they reboot rather than try something new.
Then if it’s good, the audience will stay. If it’s not, they won’t. Getting people to try something new is hard to build.
The problem is people often reward bad shows with views just because they liked the original. I’ve certainly given up watching any reboot until the first season is over and reviews are in and it’s been reviewed. If they don’t respect my time, I’m not playing their game.
