MVP of the book right here.

Add another one to our Motion Sickness Suite. Originally a 3DO-exclusive answer to Doom-like hallway crawlers, PO'ed tried very hard to establish its own voice by being irreverent and gross. So you go around slapping walking butt-vaginas with frying pans in a frictionless void. When we're done talking about the game, we talk about anger... and how we don't feel emotions anymore.

This episode concludes our coverage of NieR, as we talk about the endgame of Route A, and cover everything from Routes B, C, and D. NieR has thoroughly worn out its welcome at this point, even if there is some good stuff to be found in the tricks it plays. So come listen, and hear the specifics of our criticisms.

Not even Jeremy Irons can save this catastrophe.

It's hard to believe it, but the Dungeons and Dragons movie came out in the year 2000. It looks and feels much older than that, hearkening back to a shoddier time in filmmaking. Not even the fully-committed hammery of Jeremy Irons can save this misguided and ramshackle disaster.

Don't corner an antelope and expect not to get eaten.

Kris and Kole talk about missed opportunities, flawed hagiographies, and big dick energy.

ALSO: Missing the Journey concert. The second one is always hardest. Facebook calls the Declaration of Independence racist (and it’s slightly right). Who is the Brat Pack? Fireworks of passive aggression. This man did not earn his middle name. Agnes gets the hell out. Big Dick Energy. Giving up the Saudi con.

This game is actually quite good! As long as you get the DS version.
