People will look for validation in some of the most desperate ways sometimes.

Even if it means conflating how bad a game actually is, as seen with Sonic Forces. 

But muh potential 

What a game with a lot of potential but turned out to be a disappointment and people will look for a way to clown on it to the ground? Where have I heard that before.

@Dejimon11So many games, tv shows, and other products across so many franchises....also Mighty No.9 across ALL fronts of media. XD

Days since Jovah last mention MN9: 0

Days since Dej makes a low-hanging fruit jab at Jova's expense: 0

In all seriousness though, it's been ages since that game was even talked about me. Ya need to get out and around more son.

Bro we literally mentioned that game 2 weeks ago when we were talking over *THAT* game 

And? So I can't mention it at all with you jumping on me? XD Besides, 2 weeks is quite a while. Didn't know the game traumatized ya so much. XD

As a whole, the product isn't as bad as those titles; but from a standpoint of gameplay and especially level design, I'd honestly say it is indeed one of the worst games in the series.

That and the game at times does feel like it's worse than mediocre (if not outright terrible) when you consider the context of its release. It still had a lot to live up to that it ultimately failed to do, even when plenty of us had the feeling it was a dud in the making.

When it comes down to it, Forces isn't close to the same low level as 06 and Boom. It shouldn't even be up for discussion; those games are bumbling, broken and at times barely functioning incomplete messes.

Forces on the other hand is just bland, uninspired and shallow. It's not dissimilar to Sonic 4 in being a crappy imitation of the games that came before it. Everything about it is surface level appeal. In a vacuum, it's not so much bad as it is just entirely forgettable. Unless literally all that you care about is the avatar creator, Forces doesn't have a leg to stand on. Everything that it tries to do was done better in virtually any other mainline Sonic game. Generations and Mania are its most obvious contemporaries gameplay wise, but for Forces' lacking results you can pull up just about any other game in the series at all to see the same ideas done a thousand times better.

At the end of the day, Forces sucks and isn't worth playing. The same is also true of 06 and Boom. The how and why is a different discussion, but the result is the same.

Nah fuck Forces

Congratulations!

Sweet!

Your feet might feel it in your feet if you sit for a little though, lol

Same with Alph.

But...there exists a timeline where it came to fruition (one that I envisioned, but still).

Nintendo treated the mascot of the formerly greatest rival company that constantly tried making them look bad like trash! Who'd've believed it?

That's OK, it just opens the door for Eggman to be Sonic's echo. He can already run faster than Sonic, he's probably keeping his spin attack a secret for a bad day.

The only thing that bums me out about Shadow is what a big deal they made about clone fighters and, next to Ken, he struck me as the most obvious choice. Even considering that, I'm pretty happy with Sonic's rep in Smash though.

@PerkilatorPretty sure Alph got in as a skin.

I was more annoyed at how they showed off Knuckles as a trophy quite early so we thought Shadow had been upgraded to an echo fighter. Then they showed Shadow as a trophy in the last direct. It felt like a deliberate red herring and it stung.

@Jovahexeon Jax Joranvexeon Yep. Hence why replied to a statement that said he should’ve been an Echo.

Yeah. Seems Sony forgot that their comedy franchise needs to be, y'know, funny. I do hope they're just saving the jokes for the movie... because self-serious Ghostbusters isn't gonna work.

EVER.

The 2016 movie was a comedy and that sucked. 

@Dejimon11 I realize that. I just don't want them going to the opposite extreme here.

I generally get the impression that it’s a revival that is trying to ride the 80s throwback trend, which at this point may be showing up extremely late to the party. That whole era feels kinda done.

Like, this is probably the Ghostbusters movie that should had been released back in 2016, instead of Feig’s sketch comedy reboot concept Sony decided to hedge their bets on.

The sheer amount of characters already made this a red flag

Also Kylo Ren as DLC made me chuckle

1. it doesn't have to for it to be true
2. he's capable of being wrong
3. it never was, why would you expect it to start now

as far as explanations go it's a serviceable enough one if you really need one.

Interesting. Will it be the same world as Detective Pikachu? Or something different?

We don’t know 

From the linked Variety article, probably something different due to no one at Legendary and/or Warner Bros. being involved.

@KingMario05But if they aren't involved,  wouldn't that avert such then, in theory?

@Jovahexeon Jax Joranvexeon ...what? Could you explain?

Ok serious question @KingMario05 why does every reply to a status has a spoiler tag in it? 

Bad habit of mine, I'm afraid. I'll try and break it best I can.

@KingMario05You said they weren't involved, which meant it probably end up like their Death Note, which is confusing. 

....Pokemon Live....

Wasn’t it revealed earlier this year that Nintendo cut ties with Netflix, after they deliberately leaked that they were in talks with them to produce a live-action Zelda project back in 2015? (Which also got an unrelated stop-motion Star Fox project scuttled in process.)

Surprised Nintendo didn’t go to, say, Peacock (given their theme park/movie deal with Universal) or HBO MAX (given Pokémon’s long history with WB/CN with the anime and movies) if they were to collaborate with a streaming service for a Pokémon show.

Although maybe in this case, it’s TPC rather than Nintendo who decided to go to Netflix (although I imagine that would still require some approval from Nintendo).

The Pursuit of Happiness. 

Bad Boys for Life.

The Karate Kid remake from 2010.

Independence Day. 

@pppp He was only a Producer of that film, but didn't star in it.

@Kuzu Huh, could have sworn he had a cameo in it. Oh well.

I am Legend

Enemy of the State

Yeah, his son Jaden starred in The Karate Kid @pppp

Hitch?

I Robot

The Matrix in an alternate universe 

I know, right? Makes me wonder what they could do with the Sonic license. An RE Engine-powered, open-world character action game starring one Miles "Tails" Prower, perhaps? Maybe an action-horror adaptation of the Zombot saga from the team behind RE Village?

Redemption Arrrrc

Season 3 didn't reveal this, but Butch Hartman came out after the show ended and said that they aren't really "ghosts" in that aren't dead humans. They have no connection to humanity. They're just creatures from another dimension. As far as I can tell he deleted the video where he talked about it though.

Ok I that I remember people complaining about 

As Wraith said - this is incorrect, entirely. Butch Hartman revealed it randomly long after he created his YouTube channel, and it's not only incorrect, but contradicts information directly from the show (Desiree - a genie ghost - has a backstory that revolves around her being a former harem girl who won the heart of a saltan, only for his wife to cast her out from their kingdom, causing her to both die from age, and a broken heart, which leads into her motivation as a ghost). 

Butch only made this hasty and dumbass retcon because he became heavily Christian, and he thinks the idea of ghosts goes against those values. This was never stated in the show, and it isn't remotely believed by the wider Danny Phantom fanbase.

dont give in, dont consoom

That's how they reel ya.

IT HAS BURDS

10/10

Don't do it, man...

pika pika motherfucker

it is, unfortunately

I guess it looks okay but

Isn’t this made by Tencent or something

@Ellipsis-Ultima correct

What do the tweets mostly consist of?

Because the negligence of two mascot platformer IPs is apparently a dirty sin equivalent to the persecution of real-life female employees who've long yielded to fratsos who've graduated college but have flubbed in basic non-prejudice courtesy.

@Supah Berry Are people actually doing that, or are you exaggerating again?

I know for fact they do because backlash against such people have already rolled out-

Nah this is true 

*Suggesting Crash go back to Naughty Dog*

Yeah, uh, given how much a hell hole that place has become for employees, yeah that tweet is highly tone deaf.

Also @Dejimon11 you left out a clarification from that first tweet:

 The fact that the "get crash and spyro away" was the first response doesn't help matters

I'm the type that looks at the full picture to avoid erroneous judgement, which is far too common enough on the internet.

Now, I will give you the second and third tweets though.

ah yes, take away Spyro from Activision and give it to Insomniac, who is also under fire for their mistreatment of women

@Nix Oh shit. Insomniac are guilty of employees abuse too!?

yeah, there's been talk about since last year I think

it's coming up again for obvious reasons

Anything concrete?

Rayman fans:

That show got robbed hard.

I mean, they are all strong with the speed force

This is gonna turn out just like Arrow. Just cancel it at this point.
Sigh, I remember being so excited for this show when it came out, the Flash was my favorite superhero. It really dropped off in quality.

And here I thought Marvel was the one intended to get a Star Wars TV crossover first

In theory , that is one of the cooler things they have done this season.  It has mostly been painful to watch. But the other DC Arrowverse shows are doing great right now.

That’s not the only thing clearly wrong with this season.

I personally loved that sequence. I don't know maybe I'm just not picky but I love that The Flash just embraces being a comic TV show.

I’m not against them embracing the comic book roots but I feel like the light saber duel feels more in line with Legends of tomorrow than this show. 

I guess but it's not like the Flash hasn't pulled a lot of crazy shit because "Speed Force" not just here but in the comics.

What the heck?? What happened!?

They didn't have time to meet up anymore...so it's over.

Covid happened. They couldn't meet up and they had planned to make 2020 to be their last of the channel. Everybody is moving on with their next chapter of their lives. Johnny moved in with his girlfriend, Elliot and Sabrina are getting married and Matt wants to do stuff outside of youtube. 

Could be worse. They could've not said Tom Clancy in the tweet and then no one would shut up about Rayman only for it to be a Tom Clancy game.

seems legit

You're getting some odd enjoyment out of this Joranvexeon fellow accepting such a gift,  youngster 

I have to admire your dedication to a bit

He's also gotten me Marvel vs Capcom Infinite, the Resident Evil 3 Remake 3 as well in regard to the bits.....but it hasn't been all bad.

He also got me Shantae games, Toree 3D, Astral Chain and Splatoon 2 as well.

Dej is certainly a friend....he definitely commits to the bits for better or worse. 😮

That Joranvexeon guy is quiet an odd fellow. And for some reason he sounds a lot like Shadow759

i mean, resi 3 is at least good if you aren't paying full buck for a 5 and a half hour game

So what am I supposed to take from this screenshot?

The cruelty of Deji for gifting it or the weakness of Jova for accepting it?

He brought this upon himself. He knows what he did.

Counterpoint, Deji had to pay 30 bucks for balan wonderworld

It was $20 actually. Which is a fair price. I forget Ryan how much did you get it for?

£10. Sales + reward points that dropped the price further.

Frankly, that was probably too much for it. But it's showing on Steam as £30 for me, which in dollars is roughly $30 or so, unless there's some sale only in the US.

It was during the summer steam sale where it was $20 but that ended last week. It’s just that Jovah is only now accepting the gift

if you have money to throw away for a gag just wire it to me, bro

Ah.

to be fair, a week consideration does sound about right for if you really wanna have this game in your library

I was prepared to fight you on this, but I realise you're right...

X5 and X8 are competent, at least.

Calling X5 competent is too generous. The countdown clock and the the chances of you getting the bad ending being RNG kinda hurt it. 

Glad I bought the steam version.

@Dejimon11 i'm torn on either suggesting praise for the teacher for remembering the game at all or suggesting the teacher would say it's the third time sega released a videogame soundtrack

FIVE O CLOCK GET A CALL TO GO BLADIN AT THE SKATE PARK DOWN BY THE MALL

But my mom said I gotta go back to prevent some aliens from annihilating us all

If there are no characters from Avatar, that would be peak wasted opportunity.

Also, now that Nick owns him, Garfield when.

Looks like it could be fun, but I'd need to see a price tag

Because Timmy and the fairlyoddparents would be overpowered.

I just want Catdog.

Considering how John K and Butch Hartman have been disowned by Nick due to their behavior, I'm surprised there are characters from their works.

I'm also curious about the voice acting, if it's gonna be like Cartoon Network Punch Time Explosion where most characters were recasted.

Nigel Thornberry: "Simply SMASHING"

@Teoskaven This is only the first trailer. Im sure they’ll add an Avatar character given that Aang and Korra were in the last 2 crossover games 

They were not in the first kart racer, actually, though they were the first guests Nick chose for Smite.

This seems pretty alright I guess but Nickelodeon brand games can be hit-or-miss at times.
also WHERE ARE AANG AND KORRA YOUR BEST FRANCHISE BETTER BE IN THIS GAME

Ya'all bout to get clapped

maining nigel thornberry

@Kuzu I Mean, I know Nick can be incompetent, but I'd hope not THAT dumb.

No.I mean you gonna get clapped by my skills

Watch as Reptar becomes tier 0 and has to be nerfed in three separate patches.

Oops. I didn't realise the trailer was already shared. I did that too. ^^;

I wonder if Nick will acknowledge the rise in popularity in Fanboy & Chum Chum (and to a lesser extent, Barnyard) and bring the aboard as reps. The former's creator then made Glitch Tech, so its maybe that'd get repped too.

If I can’t play as Pig from Barnyard in his mailman outfit, I’m not buying it.

yall bout to get smacked up by my Tommy Pickles

Considering how WB seems to have in store future MK animated movies, it did felt odd.

"Insiders" need to be put in a locker ngl

NetherRealm is staying, but TT I'm not sure about. WB said they wanted to move away from the Lego stuff in favor of their own IPs at one point, so I could see them offloading Traveler's Tales to offload some debt.

Maybe they can finally finish the Haven trilogy, lmao.
