I'm not sure why people are being so insistent on it's a film only for a "specific audience", puberty happens to everyone. Breaking away from your parents, angry mood swings, reconciling with your parents when you're adult about your difficult teen years etc aren't just girl or Canadian things.
Makes sense, people don't seem to actually realise enough games take years to make so if you want to release something on an anniversary it needs to be planned ages beforehand.
@nessisonett Considering the game isn't an origin story I doubt they are that much younger but I really don't care anymore so yes, you have persuaded me. They are updating that 7 year old film to include 80s music for today's yoof to make sure it's different from the movies and it's nothing to do with people including the author of the article thinking Guardians is filled with 80s music.
@KoopaTheGamer True but it's a common misconception of the movies which goes against the purpose of the music chosen. Even the article states "As you'd expect with it being a Guardians of the Galaxy game, it boasts a soundtrack full of '80s rock and pop songs".
Thing is the soundtrack of the movies isn't 80s music, it was mostly 70s music. It's meant to be music Star Lord's Mum listened to as a kid which she passed onto him.
I'm surprised so many people are getting worked up over "it's cards" the gameplay it's still pretty much the same as X-Com but just cards instead of abilities.
@WoomyNNYes it really helped that Matt Smith had the best Doctor Who writer in Steve Moffat, Tennant was kinda ruined by Russell T Davies‘ obsession with Rose which got dull when they kept talking about her for years still after she had left.

It's a shame the game box art is ruined by having the age rating right in the middle.

@Broosh are those two flavours in two tone?
Re: Random: Brie Larson's Back In A New Metroid Dread Instagram Ad
There's nothing wrong with Brie but Danny Trejo is a Nintendo fan and I'd would love to see him instead on the Animal Crossing and other Ninty ads!
Re: Fangamer Is Finally Getting An EU Store
I'd laugh if it's based in mainland Europe so UK still get custom charges.

Re: Marvel’s Guardians Of The Galaxy Includes A Cracking '80s Soundtrack, Here's The Full Songlist
@nessisonett I doubt they are actually updating it for today's audience and Chris Pratt is still playing Star Lord and has not de-aged.
I was pointing out people are ignorant of the music used and think it's 80s as they can't tell the difference, it's a common misconception.

At least it's not Smashmouth I suppose...

@BiscuitCrumbsInMyBed I never said he was or wasn’t, I was explaining what the complaints are since someone wanted to know.
Re: The Super Mario Movie's Release Date And Cast Are Revealed
@GrailUK basically he’s churchy and his specific church is anti-gay and a few people like Elliot “Juno” Page have called him out on it.
Re: The Super Mario Movie's Release Date And Cast Are Revealed
Grumpy mugshots of the cast, there is no better way to show off a child’s animated film!

Debbie Harry had the best dress and being in her 70s didn’t stop her from being damn fine.

Re: Random: A Rogue Space Particle Could Be Responsible For This Unsolved Super Mario 64 Speedrun Glitch
I mean space doesn't exists though, it's a vacuum between things. If space was an actual thing it would be called outer full. ;p

I use to love Streetpass, I was always looking for more Shovel Knight and Fire Emblem battles. I would have liked to have seen it on the Switch.
Re: Doctor Who: The Edge Of Reality Arrives In September Starring Jodie Whittaker And David Tennant
@WoomyNNYes it really helped that Matt Smith had the best Doctor Who writer in Steve Moffat, Tennant was kinda ruined by Russell T Davies‘ obsession with Rose which got dull when they kept talking about her for years still after she had left.
