  1. Dead Space: Downfall isn't too bad. Clearly a marketing piece meant to supplement the original game and it was never going to be an unusually remarkable gem, but it gives some insight into how the markers and necromorphs work, and plays with the social divisions Unitology has created in the lore (if you've never played the original). There are a couple brutal scenes in it; it's about as bloody as a death-heavy Attack on Titan episode.

  2. i can see watch dogs being a good live action franchise, cuz they could just make a movie. no one would be like "how come (x thing from game) isn't in it?" cuz watch dogs is just, like, reality except you're aware of all the tech invading your life lol

  3. I've always thought that Peng was basically coded sexual innuendo, stemming from some sort of inside joke among the devs that took off in the office and got slipped into the game for laughs. Everything to do with Peng in the game always comes alongside an attractive, shapely woman. The trophy itself, the posters. In the first game in one of the bathrooms, there's the phrase "I give great Peng." written on a bathroom stall. My adult male brain automatically associated that with the phrase "I give great head." lol.

    I could be totally off base, but even to this day the devs will not explain what Peng means. I just wouldn't be surprised at all if this was some sort of coded sexual innuendo, some sort of inside joke that they could laugh about at the office without winding up on the bad side of H.R. Dudes are gonna be dudes.

  4. Yo, you forgot about the White Marker, that was shown in Dead Space mobile. Like what it is? Is it the OG Marker? Or just they forget to made textures for it in the mobile game?

  5. Great video! Just finished your Batman iceberg. I know it’s a weird compliment but sometimes I’ll listen to your iceberg videos on the treadmill or when I’m cooking.

  6. Yooo, give me a game where you play as the bio-prosthetic clone of a crewmember. No memories, no knowledge of what's going on, but you have the same DNA as the guy you're meant to produce organs for, so you have access to certain gear and areas of the ship.

  7. Funny enough, I’d say for the multiplayer part; Mass Effect 3 MP after all its updates and free DLC inclusions, was one of the best PVE MP games I’ve played in that time. I still think back on it to a degree.
