    Seeing all these old websites made me remember that I made a sad discovery the other day: not a single modern browser still supports <blink>. It's dead. I am not sure it will be missed, but it's a bit strange that some legacy html no longer works.

    The Pokemon Blue run was pretty crazy because of the knowledge this community managed to gather on the inner workings of the game and how clever they are at using this knowledge. The run was like the Inception of glitch abuse to the point item quantities in the inventory become the world map...

    The Punch Out thing requires frame perfect execution and memorizing pattern trees of a dozen enemies, because if you miss you have to be able to find your way through the tree to regain control of the fight. There was nothing frame perfect in these Yoshi levels and they are linear in their...

    Not overly impressed by the Yoshi's Island blindfolded thing, because it's just about finding a route and memorizing it while the Zallard1 blindfolded Super Punch Out involved huge game knowledge to manipulate the enemies' A.I., a lot of super precise execution, memory and nerves of steel to...

    The two runs of Tetris The Grand Master 3: Terror Instinct were insane. Seeing the guy accelerates to get out of tricky situations was mind blowing and that's coming from someone who completed TGM2 (not sure with what grade though, but I survived the credits). The crazy part also in TGM3 is how...

    Good Anime Movies

    Snow White and the Huntsman had its moments, but it was a mess and it was Rupert Sanders' first and only feature film. Maybe he'll surprise everyone, but that seems like very big shoes to fill. I am not sure who I would recommend for the job, but probably not Rithy Panh. He is an amazing...

    Good Anime Movies

    By the director of Snow White and the Huntsman! That's promising! In all fairness though the latest live action efforts by Oshii have been pretty bad, so even him doing the live action version of his anime would have been bad news. The music must be Kenji Kawai though or some serious heavyweight...

    Prometheus is the worst movie ever made

    I am not sure it's the worst, but in the past 9 years I saw a bit north of 1100 recent movies and only 21 got the lowest score on my scale, so as far as I am concerned, Prometheus is in the bottom 2%.

    Rerolled "Best Game of 2014"

    I have just played the demo on Steam and I am still wondering if I'll grab the PC version now or the PS4 version later, but The Talos Principle sounds like a good GOTY candidate that just happen to have been released too late to enter most discussions.

    Horrible Bosses 2

    There are some good jokes here and there, but there are not many good comedy scenes where something is built or milked. A bit of a shame also that they did not dare to do more with the pretty interesting theme they chose (starting a business). Still, they did enough with the plot and pacing to...

    Your Favorite Movie Theme Song

    Japanese B movies from the 50s to the 70s almost always had theme songs made for the movie and sometime sung by a cast member. An example of that would be the theme song for Female Convict Scorpionused by Tarentino in Kill Billand sung by lead actress Meiko Kaji. My personal favorite would be...

    Entourage

    I maintain that I would watch a spin off consisting solely of Sloane going about her day exercising, shopping, driving around town and jet-setting. I am not sure why we don't see more of Chriqui. Just a little TV here and there, a couple indies that do not sound so hot and a rather lame...

    BUMP! I'll add some comments later about Shelter, Gemini Rue, A Bird Story, Lifeless Planet, BasketBelle, Eidolon, OFF, Nadeyanen and Yume Nikki, but for now 2 things: 1) Environmental Station Alpha (see above) has yet to be Greenlighted! That's a shame! Try the demo, like it and up vote iton...

    Shelter: Badger, mushrooms, but no snake. Neat and original visual design and great soundtrack for a game about surviving as an adult badger protecting 5 little ones. A couple core elements are bit obscure (most notably that the pelt color of the young ones signifies their level of hunger), but...

    Homeland

    It was without a doubt a strange season final, but I found it pretty ballsy and it had one of the best scene of the season: The four weary agents drinking together at a funeral. PS: God this baby is fugly.

    The Interview - Rogan and Franco attempt to assassinate Kim Jong-Un

    I am not sure if you are being facetious or not. Do you think a stalinist regime that has been in a permanent state of hot or cold war for almost 70 years does not have a number of spies and sleeper agents? Or do you think the track record of the american intelligence community favors the idea...

    Hatred

    I am not sure what your problem is Utnayan. The description said the game was a "story exploration game", you knew the story could be about "ANYTHING" and after buying and playing the game you were not interested by the story it told. That's just the cost of doing business when being...

    Hatred

    Khalid, you seem to have a problem with complexity. I am a good customer for stupid politically incorrect comedies, so I suspect I might very well enjoy The Interview (like I enjoyed Team America, South Park: The Movie or Don't Mess With The Zohan), but I still think it is a really irresponsible...

    I think you might benefit from the realization that maybe not all games are meant for you. Just like not all music, books or movies are meant for you.

    Steam is problematic in more ways than one, but forcing them to distribute all and every games does not sound like the greatest of ideas to me.

    Elementary: Season 2

    Hatred

    I'll readily admit that the american concept of free speech is broader than mine, but that is true of many people since the 1st amendment's protection of hate speech is part of the american exceptionalism. That being said, the three cases you mention have no relation whatsoever with the defense...
