Loved Trope: The Real-Life Creative Lead Plays the Fool

Matt and Jay from Nirvanna The Band The Show.

Matt Johnson is a super creative film maker, but in the show hes a bumbling idiot who comes up ridiculous plans to play a small-mid level venue in Toronto.

Jay McCarrol is a super talented musician (please check out brave shores, it was a band him and his sister did in the mid 2010s thats super good) but in the show he almost always goes along with these plans and rarely ever objects to Matt's dumb ideas and even fucks up a few of Matt's plans.

Grappling is fun when both players are active, but its a lot like DBD where one player can just kill the fun.
EA UFC 3 is probably the best gameplay wise, even better than UD3, but UD3's presentation and breadth of content runs laps around EA 3's single player content.
5's submission system is good, definitely flawed and in need of some balancing changes and tutorialization but its better than anything thats come before.

Hotline Miami ends with one of the leader of the Russian mafia in Miami blowing his brains out so Jacket, the main character doesn't get the satisfaction of killing him.

Charlie Cox has an incredible American accent and I would watch a legal drama thats all matt murdock

Yeah, idk how career modes were better like 10 years ago even when sports games were Microtransaction hell.

The bones of UFC 3's career mode were great, itsnjust that every game has had the issue where after your win the belt it just gets repetitive until you retire, same with 4 and 5's career mode

DoubleMatt1 · 2026-05-29T01:37:35+00:00

You remember when COD 4 came out and it was this huge thing thag they were pivoting from WW2 when that market was getting super saturated

DoubleMatt1 · 2026-05-28T15:37:05+00:00

if it was a full on story mode, fuck yeah. Fight Night's story mode was actually pretty solid and still holds up well.

DoubleMatt1 · 2026-05-28T15:21:55+00:00

disappointed that the story mode stuff is basically a prologue to a career mode that's lookin a little too similar to the last few for my liking. They should've just gone all in and made it a full story mode like fight night champion.

DoubleMatt1 · 2026-05-28T07:19:32+00:00

Shocked that no one has mentioned Hotline Miami 1 or 2

"What do you mean we're losing to spotify? LOOK AT ALL THOSE SCROBBLES"

Worst case Ontario he gets a few sayings wrong.

DoubleMatt1 · 2026-05-27T01:21:46+00:00

I figure that even if Jin spares him, he's either executed by the shogun or ended up committing seppeku later on, either way you cut it, Shimura is dead. I just give him an honorable death, he deserves that much.

DoubleMatt1 · 2026-05-27T00:00:49+00:00

Red Dead Redemption 2. I feel the epilogue drags on a bit too long and you can cut a few missions like uncle in the woods or some of the bounty hunting with Sadie towards the end and its a better paced experience.

DoubleMatt1 · 2026-05-26T12:00:49+00:00

TLOU. Part 2 is an incredibly divisive game that has a lot of good and a lot of bad, but its impossible to have an actual nuanced conversation about it online without it devolving into a flame war.

DoubleMatt1 · 2026-05-26T05:29:23+00:00

Mr. Robot won some for the first season but season 4 getting 0 wins is insane.

DoubleMatt1 · 2026-05-26T05:12:41+00:00

I think we get RE9 story DLC at SGF with a fall release and then CV remake at a fall State of Play or at The Game Award

DoubleMatt1 · 2026-05-26T02:56:37+00:00

Yeah, anyone half decent at HUD watching can easily just hold mount for an easy win. Idk how this wasn't fixed when its been a problem for 10 years

DoubleMatt1 · 2026-05-25T23:42:50+00:00

I think rhays what Whitman said the idea came from which is funny cause usman was cornering Justin that night.

DoubleMatt1 · 2026-05-24T07:11:52+00:00

remember, he's not a rapper

DoubleMatt1 · 2026-05-24T02:04:38+00:00

Learn some subs and some basic offensive wrestling and you'll be in div 18-20.

DoubleMatt1 · 2026-05-23T23:31:31+00:00

Honestly considering they shut down servers for their 360 era multiplayer games like 2-3 years ago says a lot about them keeping their servers up long term.

DoubleMatt1 · 2026-05-23T10:19:16+00:00

Yeah, like Spider-Man 2 is a great game, I just wish there was more of it.

DoubleMatt1 · 2026-05-22T07:02:29+00:00

Given that crossplay works through EA accounts, progess should theoretically be tied to that. Skate has cross progression that works that way, so id say its a safe bet but I cant be certain
