😲we’re talking comics??? Lemme chime in!
cletus kasady is a real bad boy, a very, very bad boy. Probably worse than bad, it makes him contrast really well with Eddie. Eddie gradually shifted into a pseudo antihero as marvel comics kept going, his Cletus remained a huge arsehole, it’s actually a little refreshing that despite how the two big comic book heads constantly try to maintain some hint of grey morality, Kasady is just here being an unapologetic freak, I love it.
And yes I gotta second the ‘94 cartoon, it was my first proper exposure to the marvel mythos, it definitely helped shape my expectations and wants out of a marvel story. It’s great. 😁
Like it says in the book, we are blessed… and we are cursed.
What fucking book?
I had to do some Spiderman research, the games only explain so much. Batman was the same, I read about twenty graphic novels after the Arkham games, and I'm through two already for Spiderman. Once I finish Spiderman 2 I'll read Kraven's Last Hunt. It seems to be highly recommended. I've read a couple of Marvel reference books too, those Carnage ones are turning out to be very good.

@Th3solution Something else I remembered about your original question on Metro/it's cultural accuracy. The logo with the M and the factions who use it. The батальон Спарта (Sparta Battalion) They took the logo and incorporated it into their own insignias. Gamers in Eastern Europe had that tattoo, now they are barred from entering Ukraine because Sparta are an active unit. The writer of the novel wasn't much pleased either. I saw it today and remembered, in the game it's the Spartan Rangers. I don't know any other units who've done that other than the obvious Punisher skull but the American military have also used it. The game's imagery definitely had an impact on military too. The general consensus is that it means military first and gamer second.

@Oram77 I had a look at the Neva art-book with lunch and given that the game is actual art the majority of the book represents that exact same aesthetic. Here's the very first concept sketch for the game, that's when they were dreaming up the character of Neva. The second one seems to be alternate looks and designs of the character herself and third are early level designs. There are storyboards too, but those are kind of spoilers.

last week i had ordered Resident Evil 3 Remake for Playstation 4 from some seller.
earlier today this morning my order arrived in the mail but then as it turns out the stupid ebay seller sent me the wrong version. they sent me the Playstation 5 version. are ebay sellers always dumb and they not read their own item descriptions or what?
@seinfeldfanatic I’m having to sell some of my records while I look for work. I’m now trying to work out how to package them properly so that they don’t get damaged so I guess it depends how much the seller cares more than anything. Try shooting the seller a message before you get eBay themselves involved, it might have been an honest mistake and you’re dealing with one person here rather than a whole business.
