Then why is the bill about DIVESTMENT of Tiktok from Chinese ownership? The operation headquarters are in Los Angeles and Singapore. I’m beginning to think you don’t know what you’re talking about.

60% of ByteDance is owned by global investors, most of which are based in the US. 20% is owned by the original co-founders, none of whom have any ties to the CCP, and the remaining 20% is owned by employees, almost all of which are in California. The overwhelming majority of the company is already owned by Americans. This entire thing is all about trying to silence a source of information that challenges and refutes government interests, particularly where Palestine is concerned.
You do know that the overwhelming majority of investment and control in TikTok is already based in the US, and the only Chinese national involved with the app was the creator who already cashed out and retired a long time ago?
Can we take a moment to appreciate how Metroid II really did the groundwork for what Super Metroid perfected? I don’t think SM would have flown to the heights it has had Metroid II not taken the risks it did.

It really was a masterwork in that regard. I really see a lot of the creative genius of that era revolving around working around hardware limitations. Metroid II really did make me rethink what the Game Boy was really capable of back then. How it managed to play so well when the Castlevania games struggled to resemble their NES counterparts really told a pretty telling story in its own right.
Edit: that is a lot of "really"s.
It really was the most ambitious game on the Game Boy. And that final boss battle…

I’d argue Echoes was better in just about every way. It built on everything they made Prime great, while managing to improve on the things that needed improved. I love the whole Prime trilogy, but Echoes felt like it was the best in the series.
Obviously, That Heresy Elicits Ruinous Memories!

This game has no right to be as awesome as it is. It just keeps delivering, and is dirt cheap. The Among Us DLC is a riot to play.

I LOVE Daggerfall. I kinda feel like it gets overlooked. Then again, Daggerfall is the game that made me fall in love with CRPGs. I enjoyed others before it, but Daggerfall became an obsession. I went back and replayed Arena after having had a tepid experience with it the first time around and found it a much better experience. It’s not perfect by any means, but it firmly established Elder Scrolls at the top of my favorite series.
Really? I loved the BattleArmor/Elementals and other vehicles. I had a blast playing MA2 with my friends.
