Nintendo threatening to sue Cody Rhodes is so stupid

https://preview.redd.it/e1q4x8azdj1h1.jpg?width=225&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b670c8555f1d44c8fa479e0e611a39b1e5ef59a2

Nintendo did didn't technically sue Cody Rhodes, but they tried to. They sent him a polite cease-and-desist letter regarding his wrestling gear. The legal notice was issued because Rhodes was wearing boots that featured the Triforce emblem from The Legend of Zelda. Rhodes, a well-known fan of the franchise, discussed the situation on his podcast, What Do You Wanna Talk About?. He explained that he loved the principles that the Triforce represented, power, courage, and wisdom. He simply tried to apply them to his wrestling career. This is ridiculous, plain and simple. At this point, Nintendo will sue anybody just because they can. At the same time, there are people out there who will support Nintendo because of their love for Super Mario, The Legend of Zelda, Metroid, Kirby, etc. Sony and Microsoft have had their fair share of B.S. However, Nintendo can be just as bad, if not worse. The fact that a lot of Switch 2 games only come included with a download code just adds fuel to the fire, so to speak. Nintendo isn't the same company that it used to be.

Why is my USPS package bouncing back and forth?

My USPS package is supposed to be delivered in Houston, TX. However, once it arrived at the South Houston Processing Center, it traveled back to the Dallas, TX Logistics Center. Is this normal, and how often does it happen?

Do you think that the WWE will ruin Oba Femi's momentum?

As great as Oba Femi is, and as big a fan as I am, I'm worried that the WWE is going to eventually ruin his momentum. What I'm worried about is that he'll end up getting the Bill Goldberg treatment. I don't think that he'll have a 137-0 streak until someone defeats him, but still. He defeated Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania 42, which was great. Then, he issues the Oba Femi Open Challenge. I have nothing against Otis or Los Garza, but he defeated them very easily. He even made short work of Rusev. Having Oba Femi defeat his opponents in a short amount of time makes him look like an unstoppable beast. However, at the same time, he needs to face opponents who can at least give him a decent fight despite losing.

Eventually, he's going to have to show some sort of vulnerability by losing a match here and there. I can mention some wrestlers who would put up a solid challenge, perhaps even defeat him. Jacob Fatu, Drew McIntrye, Bron Breakker, Randy Orton, Royce Keys, Trick Williams, and Gunther could either give him a good match or even beat him. I was going to mention Sheamus, but he hasn't been around in a while. Bronson Reed would be a good choice, but he's still out with an injury. Maybe the WWE will suddenly bring back Omos. Perhaps he can feud with the remaining members of the MFTs. I wouldn't mind seeing a match between Oba Femi and Talla Tonga. The fans are obviously behind Oba Femi, and they love him. I just hope that the WWE doesn't ruin his current momentum.

What are your thoughts on Silent Hill F?

Admittedly, it's been a while since I've played a Silent Hill game. The last one that I played was Silent Hill Downpour when it released back in 2012. I remember it being a decent title, but that's it. It's not bad, but it's also a far cry when compared to the older entries in the series. I've been wanting to play the Silent Hill 2 remake, but I have yet to do so. Not too long ago, I picked up Silent Hill F for the PS5. I figured that I'd give my thoughts on the game.

Let me get the positives out of the way first. I love the 1960s Japanese setting that takes place in the mountain town of Ebisugaoka. It feels like a place that could've actually existed back in the 1960s because of the aesthetic and design. The Silent Hill franchise has always taken place in the U.S. The fact that the setting has shifted from the U.S. to Japan, is a nice change of pace. It adds to the game's atmosphere and setting. That's just my honest opinion.

The entire town is consumed by fog, which adds to the eerieness. Then there's the grotesque and disturbing flower-like enemies. The overall game is chilling, atmospheric, and unsettling. However, the biggest issue comes down to Silent Hill F's combat. That's been the game's main point of criticism. You're not in the shoes of a powerful character but rather a fragile and weak schoolgirl by the name of Hinako.

Even after after upgrading Hinako's dodge effectiveness by upgrading her sanity and stamina at shrines, she still feels weak. She's vulnerable, scarred, and haunted by her personal trauma. Spamming the dodge ability only results in her getting stunned. Areas are tight and restrictive, which severely limits movement and mobility. Since combat is intentionally clunky, it's usually best to avoid enemy encounters. Aside from boss fights, the game could've greatly benefited from enemy variety instead of fighting the same ones over and over again. At the end of the day, Silent Hill F is a good game, but it may not appeal to everyone because of the aforementioned clunky combat and lack of enemy variety. What are your thoughts and opinions?

The fact that these 4 wrestlers retired in the same year is a bit fishy

https://preview.redd.it/pmxdgb1zlh0h1.jpg?width=519&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4cbf88cce4c9ba197716aa0542723ff3d65ce1ab

With all of the recent releases that have been going on in the WWE, the fact that these 4 wrestlers retired in the same year, seems a bit fishy and odd. It just doesn't make any sense. It goes beyond The New Day leaving the WWE because of the pay cuts. I've been watching the WWE for a very long time, and I don't think that I've ever seen so many wrestlers retire within such a short period of time. I honestly believe that John Cena, AJ Styles, Brock Lesnar, and Asuka all retired due to pay cuts. It goes to show how little TKO cares about the WWE wrestlers, even the legends that have been around for a long time. The TKO pay cut is no longer a speculation, but rather, a core and central focal point that has become the theme for 2026. TKO doesn't value WWE wrestlers. The only thing that matters is money and greed. To be honest, it makes me absolutely sick. As someone who grew up watching the WWE, it's sad to see how bad things have gotten. Seeing my favorite wrestlers (who have given years worth of blood, sweat, and tears), get treated like this, is extremely frustrating and upsetting. More than 30 WWE superstars have been released or let go since Wrestlemania 42. The WWE has made a record-breaking revenue of $1.597 billion. That's just in the first quarter of 2026 alone. TKO prioritizes money over talent. Rey Mysterio, Bayley, and the Miz, all have contracts that expire in the second half of 2026. Even with someone like the Miz who has been such an integral part of the WWE, isn't safe from being released. It's the harsh reality of the WWE's current state. Unfortunately, I have a feeling that more talent is going to get released before the year ends. What are your thoughts and opinions?

Has anybody who purchased the Sword of the Sea soundtrack outside of Laced Records received his or her copy yet? I guess I'm just being impatient, but I can't wait until I get my copy.

I finished both, Wolfenstein The New Order and The New Colossus. The difference in difficulty when comparing the two titles is so drastic. Honestly, it felt like I was playing two completely different games. In The New Order, B.J. Blazkowicz was essentially an unstoppable Nazi-killing machine. It was basically a power fantasy. Whereas, on the other hand, in The New Colossus, B.J. is a lot more fragile. It makes sense because of what happened to him at the end of The New Order, but still. There were numerous times when I yelled at the TV screen. Luckily, my PS4 controller remained intact. Honestly, it was one of the most difficult games that I've ever played.

The fact that B.J.'s health is capped at 50 for the first half of the campaign instead of 100, doesn't help matters. Even if my armor is full at 100, it's just delaying the inevitable. It can be increased up to 200 with upgrades, but still. A single enemy, especially an armored one, can dwindle the player's health pretty quickly. The New Order emphasized a run and gun approach. Whereas, on the other hand, The New Colossus forces you into using cover, which is easier said than done because enemies will flush you out with grenades. Using cover isn't always safe and reliable.

In The New Order, you could tell when you were getting hit. It was very clear when you were sustaining damage. However, in The New Colossus, the hit markers are quite subtle, in comparison. The audio cues are muffled, which further complicates things. I lost track of the number of times when I looked at B.J.'s health, only to realize that it had dropped to 5 or 10. Enemy A.I. is a lot more aggressive the second time around. Enemies will flank you as well. You have large areas to work with and you can dual-wield heavy weapons, which is great. However, enemies are very accurate with their shots, even from a long distance. Another thing that's worth mentioning is that health can be difficult to manage, especially in the midst of all the chaos that's happening on-screen.

In terms of missions, the entire games is very challenging. However, there are specific ones. The primary one being the Courthouse section. Granted, I didn't struggle as much the second time around like I did when I first played the game, but still. The courthouse is a large open area, but cover doesn't last long. Enemies will attack the player from every angle. Super Soldiers (Supersoldaten) show up in waves, which ramps up a section that's already difficult to begin with. Then there's the last section prior to encountering Frau Engel. For me, that was the most difficult part of the whole game, especially because of the two Zerstorers. They can absorb a ton of damage and they can dish out a lot of damage as well. You actually get a trophy for killing just one of them. As soon as I killed one of the Zerstorers and a handful of enemies, I ran quickly in order to deal with Frau Engel. There are other tough sections as well. Wolfenstein II The New Colossus is a great game, but the decreased health (to start with) and the huge difficulty spikes, can make for an intense and sweat inducing experience, at times. Even on the easy and normal difficulty settings, the game still offered a touch challenge. What are your thoughts and opinions?

For anyone that has preordered the Sword of the Sea vinyl soundtrack from Arcline Store, the release date has been delayed until June. They're supposed to receive their allotment in May, but it got delayed until June, unfortunately. For those who have received their copies, they most likely got them from Laced Records. Hopefully, the release date won't get delayed any further, but lets see what happens. It's unfortunate, because I was really looking forward to listening to the soundtrack on vinyl. Sure, I can listen to it on YouTube (for the time being), but it's different having the physical vinyl soundtrack.
