I find the number of non-binary people hailing Allan as a non-binary icon hilarious, but not in a ‘ha ha that’s silly’ way, more of a ‘ha ha I get it’ way. Allan is the outsider, fitting in nowhere, and there’s only one of him. He breaks the fourth wall and responds to the narrator, in a movie where nobody else does. He wants to escape the world built for him to find a place for himself where he belongs, and that’s highly relatable for a lot of queer people....

If you haven’t been graced with the knowledge of Blaseball, no it’s not a typo. Blaseball was an absurdist game that loosely followed the rules of its real-life counterpart, except you could change the rules at will and some players were eaten by a gaping maw in the desert.

It was panned by critics and audiences alike, and its struggle to keep the attention of gamers and Crash fans can be summed up by its Twitch audience of 24 viewers....

Days Gone’s director, Jeff Ross, has claimed that a sequel to the game would likely have launched last month if the studio had just “stuck to its guns”. Sony held its first PlayStation Showcase in two years yesterday,giving the world a first look at Spider-Man 2,Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater,Dragon’s Dogma 2, and more.

We can also assume that other characters turn into elephants too, since we can play as Luigi, Toad, Peach, andfor the first time in a mainline Mario game, Daisy....

Summary One of the most enjoyable things to do inGrand Theft Autogames is fly around the city. Driving is fun, too, but there is something so satisfying about being up in the sky and peering down at the streets below. Yet, like in real life, you don’t just see flying vehicles around every corner. They’re in specific locations like atop helipads or in airports. This makes sense as you wouldn’t park your very expensive helicopters or planes out where the general public can get their hands on them....

Final Fantasy 16preloads are set to start on June 20, this coming Tuesday. But before then, you better make sure you have enough storage on yourPS5,because as expected, the filesize is pretty beefy.
