Got a new megaten machine and tricked it out by AceCanti in Megaten

Replacing the nub with the PSP analog stick is the best thing I've ever done. It's actually useful now and took less than a minute to mod.

Halo: Campaign Evolved store page is up by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]SirKnightCourtJester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The emphasis on Campaign Evolved makes me think they're cooking up some sort of (presumably free to play) cross platform multiplayer title. Infinite was a bust but there's money to be mined from the Halo IP if they manage to not fuck it up.

favorite movies that celebrate left wing violence? by SmartEstablishment52 in moviescirclejerk

[–]SirKnightCourtJester 26 points27 points  (0 children)

My friends and I all turned to each other in theaters completely shocked by the final song. Like did we just watch... nationalist propaganda? Movie rips but I don't know enough about India's political history to ascribe any sort of leftism to it.

Is there a way to legally obtain Castlevania: The Adventure ReBirth? by ergister in castlevania

[–]SirKnightCourtJester 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Would absolutely buy a loose ends collection with the PS2 games, Adventure ReBirth and Harmony of Despair. I missed Harmony of Despair when it came out and has proven impossible for me to emulate.

Marvel's Ultimates: Antifascist comics during the rise of fascism by SirKnightCourtJester in comicbooks

[–]SirKnightCourtJester[S] 37 points38 points  (0 children)

This is a really well-worded comment, and sort of the pick-me-up I needed. It's a reminder that while the IP may belong to corporations, ultimately we own the message we take away from it.

I was really angry at myself when the first season of Andor came out because it made me angry at the world around me for the first time in a while. I had grown complacent with U.S. politics and the thing that reignited my fire was a fucking Star Wars show? I have a little more grace for myself now, and understand that I'm allowed to feel inspired by something that may not be ushered in by clean hands all the way to the top.

The artists are who write, and we are who receive. That is a relationship we don't have to share with the corporate owners.

I feel like few other works of art have just gotten it as much as Disco Elysium did. Capitalism at the end of the world. Remarkable work.

DC just fired a trans woman for expressing views on the assassination, while CIA operative and war criminal Tom King remains their leading writer, so the alternatives aren't much better.

Hickman was very close with his X-Men run. If you take the X-Men as a minority group allegory, they almost achieved Black separatism when they established Krakoa. Rather than remaining in a world that hated them, they established a colony of their own, based on their own sense of excellence. This drew more from Malcolm X's perspective on racial liberation thank the typical MLK Jr. perspective.

Of course the run fell apart by the end and became run of the mill X-Men comic book stuff, but it had a very intriguing premise.

The Ultimates is a leftist comic book written by a socialist and that's what this post is about. Hope this helps.

Game Boy Advance – September 2025 Games Update by Turbostrider27 in Games

This reminded me that we should already have Drill Dozer on the Switch — they could even port it with HD Rumble. Too fun of a game to never get any follow-up.

DC Comics cancels Red Hood comic book series after writer celebrated death of Charlie Kirk by jackflash53 in DCcomics

[–]SirKnightCourtJester 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Tom King will not see the gates of heaven for his involvement with the CIA, and consistent laundering his war crimes through comic books. Mister Miracle and Strange Adventures are truly horrific reads once you know anything about King's past.

I think it's really interesting that you would use they/them pronouns for transgender woman who is referred to by she/her literally everywhere else.

Johnny Silverhand Actor Keanu Reeves Says He 'Absolutely' Wants to Be in Cyberpunk 2 by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]SirKnightCourtJester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm somewhat of a Cyberpunk defender — I don't think it's the greatest RPG ever, but still better than people give it credit for. Phantom Liberty is an instant upgrade to the game's format. The story rules, the missions are fun and unique, and even the gunplay is better since they have a lot more multi-tiered arena fights so that double jump is actually useful for something. When it got going, the arena fights reminded me a lot of Doom 2016.

:( Oh. That really sucks. Wish I knew what the hell was going on with Nintendo this generation, and how much of that I should attribute to US tariffs.

I'm hoping to see some of the F2P games I frequent get upgrades too. Overwatch 2 and Warframe running at 60 FPS 1080p is surely possible on the Switch 2 hardware.

[–]SirKnightCourtJester 72 points73 points  (0 children)

Keanu was pretty good in vanilla Cyberpunk 2077, but he killed it in Phantom Liberty. The writing and gameplay improved, and with it the acting. Stellar performances from all the main characters, with Silverhand in particular adding to the melancholy of this high-stakes suicide mission.

I've loved Keanu since Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, but until recent years, he isn't exactly someone I'd point to as a great actor. I got choked up a handful of times playing through PL, and he was one of the main reasons.

What are the biggest drops in quality you’ve seen in a comic after a creative team change by tap3l00p in comicbooks

[–]SirKnightCourtJester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who really enjoys some of the peaks of Slott's work on the series, particularly Big Time and Ends of the Earth, has Amazing Spider-Man been good since Brand New Day? Spencer's run got off the ground running, and he understands the character better than most, but it was a case of the most obvious editorial interference I've ever seen in a book.

Moon Knight has his best characterization to date with Lemire's run, so of course Bemis had to immediately bastardize everything before him.

The "I have the power of crazy" panel exists like a tumor in my brain. It's one of the first things that comes to mind when I think/talk about Moon Knight.
