Oh... hey Westworld!

Whatcha been up to? Those are some beautiful robo-bulls you got there. And I think we both know Hopkins isn't really dead... though I'd get that cameo sooner than later. The man is 80 after all.

Hollow Knight nears it's end

New Bosses, a new storyline, and a new game mode. Whether that's a boss rush or something original we do not know. But we do know that this last update isn't simply the last one for free but in perpetuity. This was my favorite new game last year and while the switch port still languishes in QA testing for the foreseeable future I will  pester everyone I know (that games) to give it a shot.

Please play Hollow Knight, Ya'll. It's the best $15 I've spent all year.

Let Detective Pikachu be the weirdest thing that's ever been.

I'm so confused. About all of it.

So there's a live action film being made staring a CGI Pikachu. Who talks and solves crimes. Played by Ryan Reynolds. I feel high just describing this thing. Now Bill Nighy's in the mix though the nature of his role is unknown. He does seem to pop in and out of live/CGI roles so for now I'm hoping he's Chief Constable Butterfree.

5 Straight Doubles

I've started a new job. Until I've settled in that place and worked out a more equitable scheduling treaty between the two of them I've no choice but to do everything they want. Which is a 65 hour week. Don't get me wrong, I need the money, but I am sorry the Crackpot is left in such a state. I shall return Tuesday!

God of War: The DADening

In which Kratos looks back on his past and goes "...yeah I was a real piece of sh*t." I pictured a self  loathing father figure emerging from him as likely as a feminist deconstruction of Duke Nukem. I'm REAL damn hyped over it now. They're gunning for The Last of Us in terms of story quailty. They won't land anywhere near it but the fact they tried this hard really makes me smile.

A Billy Joel collaboration 100 years in the making.

 

There's an 100 year old poem written by Lovecraft that the internet just realized is the exact same meter as piano man. Being the age of information it took New Yorker musician Julian Velard less than a week to set it to music. It ain't half bad!
