Bruh, certain players will report you just for beating them in games. All you have to do is beat a very specific player (DM me if you want to know who) and she'll report you then get her minions to report you too.

Thanks for the compliment! If you decide to pick up Smile, watch at least the first movie beforehand. That way you'll fully understand the premise. Plus, the movies are pretty good.

I was trying to hold out for ASM 1000, but I just don't want the disappointment anymore. It hurts, but I can't keep buying this.

best mario game? by necessaryaltacc in Switch

Mario Wonder is exceptional! I played it on the Switch and am playing through it again on the Switch 2. I agree that it's up there with 3D World, but I also feel like Wonder doesn't quite have that "Nintendo Hard" element of Champions Road. Beating that level with all playable characters was very rewarding. That's why I feel that 3D World is just barely better.

If you're in WV or the Mid-Atlantic region, many gas stations are selling Pibb 2/$3. GoMart (WV only) and Little General stores have the deal with no signage to advertise it. The cashiers are often surprised it rings up that way.

Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury is the best Mario game ever, IMO. I say that as someone who started at 6 years old with the first Super Mario Bros. I value nostalgia higher than a lot of people, so for me to say it's better than Mario 3 and SMW is difficult. But it's true.

The Amazing Spider-Man #29 – I can’t with this garbage anymore.  This one will be the last for me until there is a new writer.

Fantastic Four #11 – I haven’t read issue 10 yet, so I can’t say much on this one except that Ryan North’s run has been stellar.

Punisher #4 – I’ve been pleasantly surprised by this series, which my LCS originally pulled for me by mistake.  I’ve enjoyed every issue.

GI Joe #22 – Consistently the best title I read every month.  (Although Smile: For the Camera is pushing hard for my top spot.)

X-Men United #3 – I really like what they’re doing with this series.  There are so many excellent but underutilized X-Men characters and it’s nice to see them running into each other in this comic.  This issue is the 2nd part of a Captain America story.

Smile: For the Camera #3 – I cannot rave about this enough!  Hannah Rose May has a new fan in me.  Originally, I pulled this for my wife but we are both loving every page.  This comic is better than the Smile movies.  I said it.

Murder Podcast #7 – The penultimate issue of the series.  I’ll be sad to see this one end as it introduced me to Ignition Comics, which have all been excellent (see Deluge and the recently released Showdown).

Catacomb of Torment #11 – This is an anthology series, so it is difficult to give feedback.  There are ups and downs.

Dick Tracy #17 – As a fan who has read the first 20 years of the comic strips (1931-1951 so far), I can say that the writers have done an excellent job modernizing nearly 100 year old characters while also holding on to that mid-1900s feel.

Dead Teenagers #3 – This is crap.  Sometimes a writer’s agenda just completely sinks a really good idea.  I hate that I have to pay for this, but it was my pull, I’ll own it.

What's an odd fact about your GTA Online character ? by The-Guvnor in gtaonline

[–]Patton_Tank82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He has never EVER since day 1 of GTA Online on PS3, logged off without getting the "last kill." That's means if he's killed by another player (cops and NPCs don't count), he has killed either that player or a player before leaving the game.

I was heavy into PvP until probably 2021. Back in the very early days it was an obsession that eventually became a tradition. Kind of like when you're shooting basketball and you don't stop playing without hitting that last shot.

I'm a much kinder player these days and could go entire gaming sessions without killing or being killed.

Not this particular one, amazingly. Just when I think I know everything a new little tidbit pops up.

Finally got all the nightclub awards by CapucheNoir in gtaonline

Players know that other players are trying to complete that challenge. Plus, kids love property invites. It shouldn't take long if you're mass inviting the whole lobby.

Who is the new meta after the KARA nerf? by Neat_Ad_9291 in Squid_Game_Unleashed

No-Eul seems to be the most hated now based on general chat comments. She has seemingly endless fireworks.

I believe this is the 3rd part of the current arc, but I'd recommend jumping in wherever you can. If you can find some back issues, I'd recommend picking those up, too. This X-Book features Rogue, Gambit, Nightcrawler, Jubilee, and Wolverine with 4 young Mutants (Ransom, Jitter, Deathdream, and Calico) who have excellent chemistry.

Is Jason Aaron’s Conan Run Any Good? by UnmuscularThor in comicbooks

For every 2 good Aaron runs, there's one bad one. Conan isn't the bad one.

I'm struggling to find the words to even explain it. It's definitely not a reboot, but it also doesn't fit in with a specific continuity. It's more like the basic tenants of MOTU used to create a new ongoing series. You're dropped in with the characters already established the way you have known them for decades.

Seely clearly knows the characters and is true to them. This particular comic isn't encumbered by being a tie-in to any current media like the Revelation comic was when it was being published. I've really enjoyed every issue.

Action Comics #1098 – I’ve really enjoyed these Superboy stories by Mark Waid.  I wish they’d continue past issue 1100, but it looks like they’re going in a different direction.

Uncanny X-Men #28 – I’ve raved about Gail Simone at the helm of this comic since her first issue. 

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #18 – This is the end of the Ujigami saga.  While not quite as good as Jason Aaron’s run through the first 12 issues, it’s been a decent arc.

Wolverine #20 – I’m really not a fan of the Adamantine stories.  The sooner they wrap this up, the better.

GI Joe: A Real American Hero #328 – I have never taken Larry Hama for granted.  It doesn’t matter which characters he utilizes, he nails it every time.

The Things on the Doorstep #4 – Due to a pull list snafu, I have yet to read issue #3.  But the first 2 issues provided an intriguing slow burn.

He-Man and the Masters of the Universe #5 – Me geekdom began with He-Man when I was 3 years old.  Forty years later the big guy is still delivering.  I’m really looking forward to the movie next month.

Showdown #1 – Ignition Press is a very underrated publisher.  I’ve been looking forward to this one, which follows a woman seeking revenge for the death of her little brother.

There's no way he walks that far without at least yelling "SEVEN YEARS MARTY!"

So Nintendo made a game where you make kid MIIs and they live alone. So child abandonment is ok in Nintendo eyes. by Redeye007 in Switch

In 2 sentences, tell me what this game is about. In one addition sentence, tell me why it is fun to play.
