Beastcast cemented as the forever bestcast.

Tbh the Roxas opening is easily the best part of KH 2 and maybe the entire series. It's some solid slow breakdown stuff.

The intro to the nobodies is super well done.

Sonic Mania confirmed best soundtrack 2017 already. Lock it up.

I mean it won't win GB's because it'll be some shitty overdone 80s synthwave but Sonic Mania will be the actual soundtrack of the year.

So like Dream Drop Distance is kinda a fucking mess, like the plot of that game reaches a level of convolution even I wasn't interested in dealing with. Also Sora got robbed.

Unrelated but the search function on the PSN store is godawful.

And they just keep piling on the systems and subsystems and minigames in DDD. Too topheavy! The combat was a good system though.

I played KH2 when I were 6-7 and I still have no idea how I were able to beat it without understanding english.

I didn't understand the story for sure, but I doubt I would have understood it with flawless understanding of english either.

Civ QL got me thinking. Been a while since we've had a Tropico game. For a while there, they were just pumping those out.

3 and 4 were almost fucking identical gameplaywise. they need to restructure that for the next game.

i can't even remember if 5 came out.

either way they drowned it in DLC

I'm pissed I'm missing out on Civ 6 right now. I don't have a computer that can run it. The only other Civ I didn't get at launch was the first one. But it will be something to look forward to. And me and Alex seem to play the games the same way.

Hell, 3 and 4 were barely different from Tropico 1. I love Tropico but unless they can do something to really mix up the game and make it more challenging I'm happy just loading up Tropico 4 every now and then.

A lot of people have tried to convince me that Sonic was always bad, but I really don't think that's the case. I still enjoy Sonic 1, 2, 3, and Sonic CD to this day.

Every time I play a Tropico game I'm like man, this is a fun but flawed game that has a lot of potential, I bet a sequel could be amazing. Then the sequel comes out and it's the same game.

The music and banana republic premise of the series really is fantastic though.

I know everyone is sad about that video service closing but it is not that bad. Just take a breath and hope that everything will turn out vine.

That Civ QL also got me thinking that I would love a new Empire Earth. Nothing funnier than rolling over cavemen with tanks.

Sonic sucks now. He didn't suck always. Hopefully Sonic Mania will make Sonic not suck again.

Eh, only time I played Sonic was on vacation in Greece. Didn't know a single person with a Sega Saturn (?) back then. Even as a kid I thought Sonic was ok, for one level. After that it just sucks.

So I see Polygon has now become a NERD CULTURE website. That didn't take long. I was only subbed for McElcontent but if my feed is gonna be filled with 'What SCREAM QUEENS and MEAN GIRLS Have In Common - SHRIEK WEEK Day 2' and 'The Weird History of Supergirl & Power Girl — ISSUE AT HAND, Episode 2'

How many months before Patrick & Austin are filming their reactions to the latest death in Game of Thrones? Patrick already has experience in that medium.

Really looks like no site can survive solely on video game news. And when Austin tweets he has like 60 people helping him with that stream...

I'm glad I don't have any sort of attachments to social media(heck, I just started using twitter this year) so, this vine thing matters fuck all to me. Whenever it all comes crashing down, it'll be all fine and dandy.

I do however feel for the people that use such platforms to promote their work and all, be it artists or freelance in general.

I really hate the names too, but they're reflective of the nonsensical story. I don't know why I love the KH games, but I do.

I love Kingdom Hearts as well, even though I think the story is dumb as shit. I mostly love it because it brings the cartoons I used to watch as a kid in a fun, creative way and implement them all together in a video game. Not to mention, it's a polished experience overall.

Yep. At the end of the day, the Kingdom Hearts games are (mostly) really well-made RPGs with interesting combat mechanics and different systems game-to-game.
