DsiderSo if you look at Shinya's cap there, the text on it is "GET SMOKED". It drew quite a reaction from twitch chat on the stream I was watching the announcements through, and I'm sure once it's more widely known among the fanbase you'll be seeing it a lot.
Anyway, Hifumi is looking pretty devastating.

Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 is slated to the fourth and last entry in the Rebuild of Evangelion series. It has been held up, however, by the new Godzilla film. Hideaki Anno is sorry about that.
DsiderLike they said, it's unfortunate that this is the same ignorant shit as always, but does push the single good idea of more parental involvement in what kids consume. It should ALWAYS be up to the parents first and foremost, the creators do not need to be babysitting their children for them.
Today, the American Academy of Pediatrics published a powerful statement about the effects of “virtual violence” on children that media psychologists are describing as disingenuous.
Dsiderunfuckingbelievable

DsiderAnimation quality doesn't look as good as the cutscenes from the game, but that's to be expected at this point since it's on TV and not the big screen.
Atlus announced during their NicoNIco Live stream broadcast that the Persona 5 The Animation: The Day Breakers anime will begin airing in Japan starting September 3, 2016.

DsiderDamn, another shittastic redesign. I can honestly get behind just about every aspect of this game EXCEPT for the character designs. That Shang Tsung wannabe in the trailer looks like garbage too.

DsiderThis fucking idiot, he had such a promising career and has now thrown it all away because he didn't fucking know his limits with alcohol. But it's what has to happen in order for this kind of behavior to stop tainting that community.
High-profile Super Smash Bros. player Cristian “Hyuga” Medina lost his team and sponsorship Sunday at Evo 2016 after allegedly touching another player’s body while she slept.
DsiderMan that gif looked like a shop, but this apparently actually happened.
Contrary to Michael “Venom” Page’s demonstration at tonight’s Bellator MMA match indicates, one does not need to jump knee their Pokémon in the face before catching them in Pokémon Go. Though I suppose it wouldn’t hurt. Or it would. A lot.
DsiderLook, I'm glad that they reacted so quickly to this threat, but what about the EVEN MORE SERIOUS ONES before this that aren't related to this current fad? This is far from the first time someone's threatened serious violence over failbook.
Nathan Cerda, from Palmview, Texas, thought it’d be funny to threaten Pokémon Go players in his town with a “purge”. He is not laughing now.
Maybe wait until after the award ceremony. Failing that, at least wear a shirt. The rando who took the stage and got in the face of newly-crowned Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 champion Christopher “NYChrisG” Gonzalez followed neither of these suggestions, and was escorted out by security for his trouble.
DsiderI just love the giant Jigglypuff image that shows up on the floor. Anyway, my feelings for Melee aside, I will always have respect for this guy, fighting in the sea of Foxes (including Armada there who used to stand up with Peach but now plays Fox more often than not).
Juan “Hungrybox” Debiedma has finally taken out top prize at EVO, winning 2016's Smash tournament after beating Sweden’s Adam “Armada” Lindgren in the Grand Final.

DsiderMay hold off on it until I get the right PC to run it, and that also gives me time to see if it actually turns out good
Tactical action game Berserk Warriors will launch this fall for PlayStation 4, Vita and PC, KOEI TECMO America announced today.
The NYPD can’t escape scandal lately, from the federal corruption investigation to the tape of a captain seeming to encourage racial profiling that Gawker published this week . Now, a group of cops are reportedly being probed for committing that most grievous of workplace infractions: Playing Pokémon Go on the job.
Nintendo released Super Smash Bros. Melee 15 years ago on a console that sold less than its competitors, the PlayStation 2 and the Xbox. In 2001, and even in 2005, I would not have believed God if he told me that Melee will draw 2,372 entrants to this weekend’s Evolution Championship Series (EVO) 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
DsiderWhat I was trying to touch on earlier, was that we'd never get an anime more in this vein
Gary Gygax, biological determinist and creator of Dungeons & Dragons, once told a reporter for Icon magazine that “gaming in general is a male thing... Everybody who’s tried to design a game to interest a large female audience has failed. And I think that has to do with the different thinking processes of men and women.”

Live in a place with crappy Pokémon Go landmarks? Don’t have enough Pokestops near you? Have a good idea for something that would make for a great meeting ground for Pokémon Go players? Good news. You can now lobby Niantic with Pokémon Go requests.
DsiderEven if you don't play the games, it's fascinating to watch these effects on the social climate of these areas. And by fascinating, I mean I'm crossing my fingers for some post-apoc behavior going down soon

? What’s been happening in the Sydney suburb of Rhodes this week has been a little less pleasant.
DsiderI played this at PAX, such a wonderful presentation but I ended up not having any fun.
