With the way the Hall of Fame seems to be selecting games, it'd be hard to argue any individual game in the series had a bigger singular influence on the genre. I mean, the one exception here is of course Dragon Quest V, and the original didn't even make it out of Japan until decades later, so I...

You can find the full list of 49 here: Inducted Games - The Strong National Museum of Play Given the criteria here, which, quote: "The Strong’s World Video Game Hall of Fame recognizes individual electronic games of all types—arcade, console, computer, handheld, and mobile—that have enjoyed...

The thing to note about the Hall of Fame is that cultural impact has a much larger influence on getting in than actual game quality. Whether that's deserving of being the game that sparked the "games are art" or not is less material here than whether it was or not. That said, it was definitely...

It's a common opinion of the fan base, and it's not like I don't understand why. It's goofy and ultimately pointless. I just happened to find it entirely delightful.

It's a very fun episode, like it's very stupid but most of the cast understood the assignment

I mean the 1920's is basically where contemporary Eberron is generally set, so the aesthetic definitely works

A Guyver versus a ninja can only end in a stalemate; this has been established long ago My favorite Chuck Norris fact I've ever heard: "They say Chuck Norris has balls of steel. That's because Sigourney Weaver keeps his real ones in a jar above her fireplace."

Only a Guyver can kill a Guyver

I say the latter, but I would imagine officially it's the former

Since nobody asked, here's my top ten list of games that haven't been inducted into the Video Game Hall of Fame that should've been, in no particular order Wizardry (1981) - The original "Blobber" (I hate that name but apparently that's what they're calling it), Wizardry didn't have the kind of...

You're not actually supposed to say that part out loud around here, but also, yes, you are very correct.

I think it is primarily a forum-wide swear filter setting that is pre-emptively correcting other folks' swears, though I know that's a last resort and the mods generally don't like it when you do swear, even if it does end up being censored. I have, on occasion, typed out "naughty word" to...

I mean, this is only the 11th year that the Hall of Fame has been around, and with the exception of the first two years (6 games each) and last year (5 games) they only induct 4 games per year. That's only 53 games. Frogger was one of the games on the shortlist this year that didn't get...

Well, the lost civilization in this case isn't exactly ancient, it's just that The conlang in question is not only modern and from the current kingdom's neighbor to the south, which would make sense that it's found in a 8th grade classroom as the kingdom in question

I mean, if we're being honest, the reasons behind this has been a deliberate political attempt to transform education specifically that students don't learn critical thinking or to otherwise question popular narratives. To be fair, the proposal that was stated was relating to...

Rabid transphobia that massively bankrolled the lawsuit that just drastically rolled back legal rights for trans folks in the UK. Bankroll supported through the promotion and purchase of Wizarding World products and experiences. If your goal was to state an analogy that showcased how minimal...

Benjamin Buttoning?

So, two things can be (and almost certainly are) true at the same time: 1) Making space for bigots to reform themselves by trying to reach out to them is more effective at making them no longer bigots then complete ostracization is. And... 2) Any place that makes that kind of space for bigots to...

I mean, even in that case, they would be essentially paying off their debts, which isn't direct profit but also isn't not profit
