I don't count Donkey Kong as a Donkey Kong game

Even Nintendo retconned the monkey in it to be Cranky Kong and not Donkey Kong!

technically that was rare

[Jenuall]

Extremely, I think it only happened once in fact.

What's the actual source of that gif? I've never been able to find the original clip.

I don't know the source but I suspect it might two different clips spliced together. According to buzzfeed "Sharing memes about all the times Christian Bale and Kermit the Frog were basically twins" was a "2000s thing". I've found a 2008 article on ebaum's world that compares the two as well as a 2008 livejournal blogpost and a 2010 wordpress blogpost so I guess it was a thing that I just don't remember seeing first hand.

Anyone else going to dive into Subnautica when it drops this evening?

Please do let me know how you find it!

Ok I've put a few hours in this afternoon and it's been absolutely great - no stutters, no frame rate drops, no crashes or bugs. I've been playing exclusively in handheld mode and the image is clear and crisp.

The game itself is really chilled but is then punctuated by moments of intense terror as you hear some goliath of the deep roaring beneath/behind you, had so many quick scrambles to the surface

Have just started to unlock/uncover the base-building mechanics so will be spending the evening collecting the resources I need to make my deep-sea home beneath the waves

I finished DKC:TF recently and it's decent, but the controls are absolute arse.

The controls are much better than in the original, just because of the lack of waggle. I guess 'controls' could refer to the love-it-or-hate-it weightiness of Kong?

not today

thus breaking the streak of asking the right question at the right time

That's what I was not a fan of, DKCTF is a much better game than say New Soup U in every possible way but so use to Marios fat arse that DK miggt as well be a Jigglypuff

Was at the wife's friend's house yesterday and the husband showed me the new Xbox. Nifty but of kit but some of the games are >100GB in size.

You'd need four Switches to house a game of that size, it's crazy.
