What we leave behind is not as important as how we’ve lived. What will we do without Sir Patrick. Watching Street Fighter is not one of them, but I still have a review, a few weeks late. RAMpocalypes is not getting any better, and not if we listen to Sam Altman. James Gunn says they will cast Batman soon. Modern Warfare 4 is off too a good start, and Ubisoft wants to buy Arkane.

Link has been rescuing Zelda for 40 years, and this year he will be doing it all over again, as we discuss the Nintendo Direct. Don't signal for rescue, because Mayday was a lot better than expected, and Star Wars is heading to a 70mm not near you. And we finally know what Godzilla Minus Zero is really about.
