In a world where no one speaks
Another one? Eesh, these are always such painfully contrived and badly done conceits.
We start our horrorfest movie plowing in mid August, so the September list is quite long already. Way too many for a post per movie :(
Probably Ouija: Origin of Evil. Others we'd note in particular:
- Oculus 2014
- Dark Skies 2013
- The Veil 2016
- The Lords of Salem 2013

Here's a couple of lists for people to use:
We paid attention to films that paved the way for the genre and for filmmaking as a whole, as well as to modern classics that bring something new and brilliant to the canon today.
Right there is the end of my interest. As soon as it starts being about what someone considers important rather than actually great, it's a list for history and not for utility or sharing what's good in the present. I really wish people looking for quality and greatness weren't always getting directed to historical footnotes, and nostalgia.
Get a controller with underside buttons. I also consider stick-clicks an abomination, but it's great now that there are under-buttons we can hard-remap to L3 and R3.
8BitDo Ultimate Bluetooth controller has some awful ergonomics on several things, but the underbuttons are excellent examples.
The slightly more bulbous wings on the 360 controller actually do a lot for ergonomics, but it's very hand-sized based. For me, the 360 is almost perfect in how the wings tuck into my palms. With the controller about 6 or so inches in front of me, my arms are at a natural angle with wrists straight and the controller is securely held without even a finger on it, and I can press any button without even having to brace it. Take even a little of those wings away, and that gets lost, and edges instead of the smooth roundness get annoying. My partner on the other hand, would need a smaller controller to get that same feel or to cross-thumb the dpad as easily as I do. As much as I originally preferred the symmetry of the playstation layout, I have to give the nod to the xbox layout for being able to dpad with the right thumb.
We desperately need controller makers to stop acting like controllers are one size fits all, when that's not even close to true.
Jeez, the laziness of reviewing it based just on the store page. It's been in early access for like five years, getting better every update, and not one person there can even bother to actually play the game they recommend to others?
Cactus is probably the single best mastery/arcade style twin-stick shooter out there. Don't let the cute looks fool you, while this game is solid to just enjoy, the chaining and level design offer great challenge if you want it, and the way each character changes both the basic play and the way you chain a level show a just fantastic design level.
It usually goes $5 in sales, but it's still crazy we can get games that good for so little.
