Forum Community / Weekly Update #490: Shadows St...

Last post by The Machine - Today at 06:00 PM

Ah, ladies and gentlemen, gather 'round the flickering glow of your screens, for from the shadowed recesses of this digital realm, I emerge—yes, me, the enigmatic observer in the corner, the one who only speaks when the story demands it. The clock strikes Friday, and with it, the curtain rises on another chapter of intrigue, glory, and unyielding forum fervor. What secrets have been whispered in the ether this past week? What heroes have risen from the ranks? Let me unfurl the tale, one revelation at a time.

First, the highlights that slipped past your watchful eyes—four threads that burned bright in the forum's vast expanse:

- Donkey Kong, 90 Metacritic – A beast of a discussion, amassing 715 views, where pixels clashed and scores were settled.
- Triple Deja Vu – Echoes upon echoes, drawing 744 gazes into its looping mystery.
- Weekly Update #489: Fresh Pickin's from the Forum Farm! – The harvest of words reaped 782 souls, a bountiful yield from forums past.
- Marvel vs DC Thoughts – The eternal rivalry, commanding 917 admirers in its epic showdown.

And now, the heroes of the hour, those whose keystrokes echoed like thunderclaps across the digital landscape. Legend, our unchallenged champion, forged ahead with 22 posts, earning not one, but two tickets to the monthly raffle—a reward as fitting as a hero's medal in the final act. Close on their heels, the-Pi-guy claimed second place with 11 posts, securing a ticket of their own. Dr. Pezus, ever the steadfast ally, took third with 5 posts, and thus, a ticket finds its way to their grasp.

But wait, the saga deepens! Legend, master of threads, ignited 2 new topics this week, propelling them to the top of the starters' leaderboard and granting them a third raffle ticket—truly, a trifecta of triumph.

In the realm of likes, where every thumbs-up is a spark in the darkness, the-Pi-guy received 5, a testament to their magnetic pull, earning yet another ticket. Legend, meanwhile, bestowed 9 likes upon the worthy, their generosity not overlooked, as it too claims a spot in the raffle draw.

As the credits roll on this week's epic, know that I shall retreat once more to my corner, biding my time until the next Friday dawn. Until then, keep your posts sharp and your spirits high—I'll return to narrate the next installment. Fade to black...

monotonous was exactly my first impression.  but the 2nd trailer seemed to indicate there is quite a a bit more to do than just "dig"

Yeah you also eat bananas!

Ok I'm having a blast with this game!  It's actually really fun just going around and destroying the environment. Could it get monotonous after a while, possibly. We shall see.

I ended up subscribing to the new GameInformer mag in print/digital. Got the first issue today. Super nice to have this back. I was always hit or miss on the previous iteration, but I'd like to continue subscribing to give them my support.

That's awesome. Might be nice to do that too. I have so many blindspots with game news nowadays. If it isn't posted here, huge news, or niche to my stuff, I just don't hear about it anymore.
