Btw, the game is just a slight update of The Sentinel and is a lot of fun to play.

Dangerous Dave in the Haunted Mansion is imo the BEST id game published by Softdisk. It's the one game that feels right. #MorningDOSTalk

Great graphics, controls, levels & just the general mechanic of Dave reloading his shotgun really turn it into something special.

Yeah, $50 for no physical media. I think that's expensive.

New SpongeBob movie wasn't bad! Didn't make the same mistakes the first movie did. But at the same time it's still missing something.
 Tue Jun 30 23:53:14 +0000 2015


It doesn't have moments as great as the first film had when it worked. And I didn't really care about any of the real world stuff.
 Tue Jun 30 23:53:56 +0000 2015


But the 3D was good. And I didn't expect Antonio Banderas to be in a prominent role :) Still, none of it was as good the best episodes.
