It is definitely video games, although movies might be the next to go on the chopping block.

To be fair, the companies themselves (ie: Warner brothers) may stop bringing things to Dvd/Blu-ray entirely way before stores stop selling them. WwE has already stopped putting their events on Dvd a few years back.

'Cell'

One of my favorite scenes with Perfect cell was when he pumped his muscles up to show Trunks that he wasn't a 'ascended' sayian as much as a bulky one.

Also the character had a better cinematic death than Buu did, which also gave Gohan his time to shine.

I'm thinking about revisiting the game at some point.

As a Superman mark, you would think something where Batman gets 'got' would be among my top ten. I'm secretly waiting for DC comics to pull a narrative like this for Supes (but with Shazam and Supergirl among the Metropolis Knights).

Fighting Force on Ps1 was definitely better than its sequel. Same with State of Emergency on Ps2.

Vigilante 8 had a better selection of vehicles than its sequel. The garbage truck and half-track was a bit much.

I want to say Bayonetta too, if just for the 'climax finishers' being a new thing then and not keeping up with them since Nintendo got hands on the franchise. I wasn't even a fan initially, but the whole sequence of dancing and then something huge and monstrous forming from her "clothing" was a spectacle.

In real life, only the actress.

In video games, Skarlett is one of my favorite female ninjas, and top ten favorite MK9 characters. Conversely, I can't stand her MK11 design, which might as well be an alternate universe.

Just by concept, she was a ninja that wore red, absorbed blood, and just happened to be a redhead. All red everything.

Given how Netherrealm eventually turned Rain into a magician in MK1, they likely did the same to Skarlett earlier.

What makes Forspoken woke?

Jupiter posted...
So please tell us how Forspoken is woke. Because the only thing I can think of is you are saying it's woke because it has a black, female lead.

No, I'm saying the game having a black female lead made it easier for haters to rag on it for any of the other nitpicks.

You would have to play the game to really see the other bad things that you can rightfully 'hate' it for. But if you dismiss the game from the beginning BECAUSE it had a black female lead, then you never had to play the @%# thing to judge anything else.

I might as well call this the "Heat leech" syndrome, since I recently bought and played Starfield for the same reason I just highlighted, and so far its not bad. Beforehand I was right here with all the other knuckleheads laughing and pointing at it. The heat leech creature was the first thing in Starfield that made me smile (because it jumped out of a drawer, looked at my character then slithered away).

In another playthrough, I accidentally stepped on it and Vasco started firing at it (^-^) but my point is, folks should have tried to play Forspoken before criticizing it so @#% hard.

(Edit) As for Ellis123, I didn't edit out that part because I was telling on myself. I didn't want to play 'Kingdom Come: Deliverance' because I prefer character creation over any set character, not because of the main (although the main character was as bland as breakfast oatmeal).
