Ace Combat 4 is a game that is about military action and war and airplanes and such but damn if it doesn't have a fuckawesome soundtrack and hell the story cutscenes being both from the point of view of a CIVILIAN having watched all the events of the game from the ground just trying to survive in their country taken over by an imperialist power who gets to know one of the main people you fight against rather personally is a hell of a way to do a story and it just...
it's good???
Pkimn swooooosh, uk history, archeology, PUNS oh god
i can't believe gamefreak is just calling the UK out like this
i mean
we kinda deserve it but WOW
Pkimn swooooosh, uk history, archeology, PUNS oh god
okay so you mighta heard like
the four fossils in Swoosh are deliberately crimes against nature and life itself (seriously oh god why does the game let you create such abominations and make them suffer for our amusement Arceus WHY) because they're a direct callout of the UK fucking up paleontology
but uh... I ONLY JUST found out that the "scientist"'s name in the game who makes them is a pun

CARELESS.
Parcelforce more like parcel farce.
Parcelforce: *emails* we're delivering your package today!
Me: oh cool I'll go pick that up later then.
*Arrives at where it's getting delivered, no parcel*
Me: ... *Checks tracking info*
Parcelforce tracking info: your parcel is being delivered today! In an alternate universe where we didn't just get it and not even bother to send it from our depot and instead had emailed you correctly with the information that we'll be delivering it SOON.
it's... complicated omg.
but I now know about throw ratio and all that guff so I guess I've learned something today even if it is making my head friggin spin also I am BAAAAAD at measurements and distances and I'm really friggin bad at guaging them even with a measuring tape nhggjafg
why are dimensions hard
oh dang that reminds me one of the NPC trainers you can face repeatedly in Pokemon Swoosh is a construction lady and she's cute and perky and broad shouldered and clearly well muscled and has kinda a cylindrical body shape rather than huge hips and tiny waist and she's just... so good??
She's very femme, but also burly as fuck and I deeply appreciate this atypical body type it's so good <3
Birdsite link. Also Evangelion and Pokemon Swoosh combined pooptoot. It's pretty good, no I didn't make it but I gotta share it
Me: *basking in having completed the post game section for pkmn swoosh now as well*
My brain: hey wanna think about the Pokemon slogan for a while?
Me: oh yeah sure, that sounds like harmless fun.
Brain: *looking patiently at watch* three... Two...
Me: *realisation* omfg. You've never EVER been able to "Catch Em All", not in ANY of the main series games!! You gotta trade for the ones you can't get!!! We've been lied to for decades?!?!
Brain: aaaaand there we go.
