Aldi's brand of bagels is better than Thomas for me and are about half the price. There's something that tastes oddly "sugary" about Thomas bagels in comparison.

Dang, Spelunky 2 is a loss for me. Glad I got to try it on the service at all though. I've never come close to beating it lol

Just commenting to report I'm experiencing these exact symptoms as well.

Ween are my favorite band. I think this is probably their best album.

This is an essential psych rock album but don't miss their other stuff either! Quebec is a good place to go after listening to this one. The fandom is very passionate and fun to be a part of.

P.S. Never pass up an opportunity to see them live!

 

Anyone know anything about this guy? Doesn't look like he was exactly a points machine for WIS last year. Maybe the coaches see potential in athleticism or something?

My favorite cheap + delicious+ filling meal is eggs and toast.

Peanut butter and banana sandwich is also dirt cheap and delicious.

Deep Rock Galactic. If you can get a couple of buddies to play this with you then you need to jump on it now - it's the most fun I've had playing online multiplayer in years.

Despite this being an obviously imperfect album, this is one of my all time favorites. I never seem to get bored of this record and I think the warts it has adds to the character of it all. It's certainly greater than the sum of its parts.

What are some of your favorite songs on here? Least favorite?

All My Little Words is one of the most beautiful songs I've heard. How Fucking Romantic is not one of the beautiful songs I've heard.

I played the RE4 remake in its entirety four times in a row when it came out. The original is a good answer for this too.

That logo is so ugly it's good. Seriously.

I love the way they've shaken up the formula with this one. Upgrades to your moveset to make navigating more fun could be a game-changer. I hope it sells well so Nintendo keeps making these.

 

What are your expectations for the new Yakuza/Like A Dragon game? What would you like to see added/removed from previous entries?

I hope they go all in on variety between the two protagonists and the way their gameplay goes. There's a lot of potential there for surpassing Yakuza 0 in this regard by having more distinct settings (Kiryu in Japan, Ichiban in Hawaii) and combat. I'd love to them each keep their own gameplay styles too; switching between Kiryu and Ichiban as well as beat-em-up and turn-based combat respectively could make the gameplay loop feel super fresh and crazy addicting.

With that being said, I think I'd like to see Ichiban's half of gameplay scaled back a little bit in some areas. I'd like the total party to be four with no one on the bench - this would make it easier balancing RPG elements for only one half of the game and easier to revisit after breaks with Kiryu. I also hope they make tough fights a little less frustrating and make turn-based combat overall less grindy compared to Yakuza 7.

What are your thoughts?

 

What expectations do you have for the new Yakuza/Like A Dragon game next year? What would you like to added or removed from previous entries?

It's known that the story will include both Ichiban and Kiryu. According to the trailer released recently it looks like Ichiban will be sent to Hawaii which is an exciting idea. We have to assume Kiryu will get Japan to himself then. I think this idea of a dual setting is exciting for sure.

I also think the dual protagonist role can work really well with this one with potential to be better than Yakuza 0 in this regard. If Ichiban's half has turn-based gameplay and Kiryu's stays with a traditional beat em up then I think the gameplay loop could get very addicting and feel fresh switching between the two.

Because of the two protagonists mechanic I'd like to see this as an excuse to downsize Ichi's party to four total which will make the RPG elements a little more manageable and will hopefully scale nicely with sharing a game with Kiryu. I love Yakuza 7 but I hope they make the turn-based side of this new game is a little easier/less frustrating as well as make it less grindy.
