On the Beastcast they said it would be a cool throwback for the Switch version of MK11 to have no blood by default and require a blood code which then had Dan reciting ABACABB but neither 16-bit version of MK1 had blood by default! The blood code was for Genesis, and SNES had no way of enabling blood at all.

Im mad that i remember this being a thing. That Icons show on G4 taught me so much useless shit lol

What are some games with really good explosions?

Also what are some games with good hugging mechanics?
Just Cause 2 is the king of explosions.

And hugging? Hrm... A Boy and his Blob is too on the nose, so I'll go with The Sims 4. I'm pretty sure it also has a dedicated hug (radial selection) button.

But are there different hug options for the various huh types? Inquiring minds want to know.

Although I bet there might be some specialty hugging animations on a certain modding site for Skyrim or Fallout 4 known for their more lewd and eclectically lewd (but often high quality!) mods.

It might be based on mood? There's some actions that have variants like that, can't remember if hugging is one of 'em, though.

The mood system does a lot to make Sims 4 feel alive.

Huh. Well the last time I put any time into a Sims game was maybe with 2?

But there's definitely some ways they could go with that if they didn't. Bro hugs, romantic embrace hugs (and subvariations), socially awkward hover hugs, etc.

Actually isn't Army of Two really homoerotic? That's a game I haven't thought about in awhile. I dunno if there were ever any actual hugs as such in it though…

Hey kids, do you wanna play the latest game called "Waiting For Patches?" It's the hottest craze these days.

I'm currently waiting for the Anthem patch but I can't play Metro Exodus while I wait because that game hasn't been patched yet..

So after like 5-6 hours of Anthem spread out across a few days, I updated Destiny 2 and hopped back in to both a capped character and a made a new one and played it for a few hours.

This is the video game equivalent of Target coming into Canada, buying up all the dead Zellers, and opening over a hundred stores nationwide to try to combat Wal-mart without the pricing, the stock chain, or the wherewithal to understand what customers even want. It wasn't truly terrible in it's own right, but there's a million little details that I could look at and go "oh, this is clearly better/easier over here at this established thing instead".

Anthem feels like Exhibit A in misunderstanding expectations and how not to read a room.

Anime is happening tonight with that Gundam NT movie getting a theatrical release tonight. I wonder if Jeff ever got around to watching Gundam 0079.

Boy there are a lot of DLC sidquests in ME2. This may actually take a while.

Or they could do longer episodes.

you humans are all racists

2: *Bzzrt*ell they're not so ba*pop*

3: *Bzz*d literally die for any alien in the univ*pzhoom*

Maybe Antiwhippy was right. This part in Mass Effect 2 was a little on the nose. Edit: Not that part you mentioned, the planet before that, but that part was funny.

I'm watching Alexey Quest 2.02 and I forgot how extremely on Aria is. I remember her being a bit much, but she's waaaay more than that, even.

She's like if Jack went Super Saiyan.

I hope there's a gif out there of Shep Shep's "I got you a brandy" reaction face. That's gonna get some mileage.

Alex and Vinny's drunk Shep Shep's voices are pretty good too.
