So DK is a blast. It starts off slow, first two hours I was thinking this will get old really fast but then it just keeps opening up and that collecting itch kicks in and it's just fun to destroy everything to find stuff. Plenty of Rare like 3D platformer missions amoung the crazy amount of stuff to find. The controls are great, DK has a fun moveset which makes moving around a blast and allows for high level play. Still too easy, hopefully changes.

If you look up Pam Ayers' work, you'll see how a poet ended up on TV. Very broad poetry. Here is what AI produced when I asked it to write a poem about you in the style of Pam Ayers (nailed it):

I’m gonna tell you 'bout Tom Towers,


A chap who spends his waking hours,


Not gardening or baking pies,


But gaming, with discerning eyes.

He’s got a podcast, quite renowned,


Where pixel talk and lore abound.


He’ll chat for hours, deep and wide,


On frame rates, shaders, anti-aliasing pride.

He’s not impressed by sloppy scenes,


Or muddy rocks in gaming greens.


“Those textures look like mashed-up chalk!”


He’ll mutter in his Aussie talk.

And if you dare to name Clair Obscure,


He’ll scoff and say, “The end’s unsure!”


“It fizzles out, it lacks finesse,


A narrative unholy mess!”

But still he plays, with furrowed brow,


Inspecting cliffs and granite now.


“Look at that boulder! What a joke!


It’s polygonal, and poorly woke!”

So here’s to Tom, with specs and sass,


A gaming gent of highest class.


He’ll rate your rocks, your quests, your lore,


Then podcast on it — and ask for more!

Except that my famous rock texture analysis was of how good a rock texture was, rather than how bad.

Foolz review was good.


I don't think the game is as buggy on switch. Though the framerate would wobble. Really need to try it on switch 2.


I only played the Book of Unwritten tales 2.


It was very good but had a cliffhanger ending so didn't satisfy me as much as I thought it would. Still, it's so cheap I have no regrets from buying it.

Probably a review of book of unwritten tales 2 there, too.

This is great to hear.

so the last Game under criticizes E33, oh we need a debate.

New Superman movie was really good, love the hopeful style, but the plot has issues. The characters were good but scenes were just not given enough moment to breathe.

The floor is yours!

If you like a variety of outfits then you will love DK Bananza. You have a choice between female outfits and simian.

Some parts of DKB feel and sound a lot like it's made by the Splatoon team.


That first boss was pure Splatoon and the music too.

I just beat him and was thinking the exact same thing. The whole visual style seems more Splatoon era Nintendo as well.
