Taisun Peanut Soup is a delicious sweet treat. But not everyone feels that way. I was sad to see one of my favorite YouTubers, Atomic Shrimp, didn't like this. So today I'm going to show the positive side to this delicious treat.

Chroma Squad is a fantastic turn-based RPG that is both a loving homage to the Power Rangers, but also an ingenious look at the production of a TV series. Rather than fighting evil as the Crayon Box of Justice, you instead play a manager of a new Super Sentai show hoping to become the greatest show on television. It's a formula that works fantastically.

The creator of Pac-Man, Toru Iwatani, once created another arcade game called Libble Rabble. It's a cult hit now, but at the time, it didn't go over well when it first released in Japanese arcades. In this video, we take a look at an overshadowed game in the legendary creator's catalog. Or, is it one of this games? That's an important question to answer. One that we kind of answer in this video. We also visit some Tokyo nightclubs, so that's neat.

Ico and Shadow of the Colossus creator Fumito Ueda recently said that the age of developers creating new mechanics is over, something he’s apparently being saying since Journey. For the most part, I agree with him. But there's one AAA game that bucked this trend - Watch Dogs Legion. With its incredible NPC recruitment system, it turned what would otherwise have been an okay game into a great one. There are some flaws however...

My other channel, Triple Iris, is not that big, and yet I get sponsorship deals from AAA game companies somewhat frequently. This is what those deals typically look like. I also get scam emails from people offering me a product to review on the channel, and these are frankly bizarre.

Luigi's Mansion 3 was this close to greatness. Its first half is brilliant, with fantastic animations, its bursting at the seams with charm, great puzzles, a fantastic setting, and fun collecting. It's Nintendo at their best.

But as the game progresses, some flaws become more and more obvious. So much so that it kind of became annoying. It's also got one of the most annoying levels in a video game I've seen in over a decade. Despite this, its still an excellent game, just not as great as it could have been.

I used to be a fiction writer, and not a very good one. When I was still in college (or maybe just after I left) I wrote fan fiction set in Terry Pratchett's Discworld universe. Starring a gargoyle named Ashlar and an astronaut named Bizz, the two set off on an intergalactic journey of defying odds and rewriting history. I think that's what I was going for anyway, I never actually finished it. But hey, there are no shortages of cameos, because why would there be?

I've covered a lot of great indie games over the years, many games that didn't get the love they deserve. With this year's Steam Summer Sale, there's no excuse not to check out these incredible games!

I knew I would love Promise Mascot Agency when my new co-worker, a severed pinky finger, asked for help to murder the corrupt mayor and bury his body in the woods. It would be a good bonding exercise, she said. Pinky, which actually is her name, is a star, but this game is a veritable galaxy full of stars. Its approach to gameplay is… unique, and it doesn’t always stick the landing, but the jump itself is so impressive you can’t help but give it a 10 anyway.

Clinton won the popular vote, and Harris lost because of her last minute hard-right turn alienated everyone.

Next time one your friends insists that Trump voters are regretful, or somebody mentions Trump's poll numbers, show them this.

This feels like a short-term win but a long-term loss. Carney is a centrist, a former banker that's in to a lot of conservative ideas. He feels like Biden 2.0, the conservatives only losing because of Trump's unhinged rantings. MAGA-ism has gained a huge foothold in Canada, and turning to a do nothing centrist is only going to do so much.

Is there actual proof that he plotted to assassinate Trump? We know Trump has taken over the FBI and installed loyalists. Are we just going to take their word every time they say they've stopped some grand conspiracy like this?

It's not these four cowardly DINOs that make me lose faith in this country. It's the people continuing to defend them.

Everyone's praising them but I'm sitting here thinking "they're only now doing this?"

They're coming for everyone, and appear to be doing it in stages. Immigrants and foreigners first. Those with disabilities next. They're setting the ground work for judges and journalists already. After that it'll probably be gay people, or possibly black people. Democrats they'll likely save for last, as there are too many straight, white, male Dems to go after right now. They're going for the "there's no one left to speak out for me" method.

You mean the company that was created by the worst of pre-Musk Twitter leadership, that claims to be open source and federated but actually isn't, that uses AI to moderate itself, and that has a policy that lets AI scrapers use your posts is actually bad? I'm shocked. Shocked!

90% of modern tech is just money laundering and insider trading.

The most infuriating thing is that Trump gets to take a victory lap no matter what.

If a country gives us eggs, he gets to pretend to be a hero by saying he strong armed them into "surrendering." Then he'll say they're inferior eggs and encourage his cult not to buy them anyway.

If they a country doesn't, he gets to call them evil and will use that as justification for slapping massive tariffs on them. Then he'll say American eggs are the best and that he always supported American farmers. He'll probably say something like "they tried to smuggle their eggs into our market but I stopped them!"

It became painfully clear since last year why he bought Twitter. He's not trying to make a profit. He wanted a place where he and his cronies could freely and widely spread misinformation. He'll gladly throw more and more money at it because he knows whatever money he loses running Twitter, he's getting back through brainwashing people to do his bidding for him.
