From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

One cutscene from Rise of Kong was poorly received by critics [1] [2] [3] and went viral online. [4]

Skull Island: Rise of Kong received "generally unfavorable reviews" for the PC version, according to review aggregator website Metacritic. [6] Phil Hornshaw of IGN described the game as "ugly and full of bugs", stating that "at its core, it's just boring. It makes no meaningful attempts to do anything new or clever". [1] Shunal Doke of GamingBolt said that "the game has terrible visuals, some downright horrendous gameplay, and level design that seems to be more keen on wasting your time rather than presenting you with any interesting challenges or rewards". [5]

In one particular cutscene that was spread online via Twitter, [4] King Kong has a flashback to his past while encountering an enemy, with a static image being presented on screen to represent the flashback before Kong attacks the enemy. [1] [2] [3] Kong's animation was described by Zack Zwiezen of Kotaku as being equivalent to a "broken animatronic on some long-forgotten abandoned Disney ride". [2]

  • The vote tally was 311 yeas to 114 nays, with 2 voting present and 8 not voting. [10]
  • Never mind: The primary table is the table in the section titled "List of state applications for an Article V convention". The main problem I have with this table is that many of the hyperlinks in this table's "Receipt by Congress" column are broken hyperlinks. This relates to the section on this talk page titled "Foa5c.org -- Broken website". For the sake of readability, and for the sake of lacking broken hyperlinks, let's change the cells in the "Receipt by Congress" column in such a way that those cells use the <ref>{{cite ...|...}}</ref> syntax.

Zero Punctuation: The Last of Us Part 2

Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw of The Escapist complimented the game as "well-made" but heavily criticized it as "unnecessarily long" and Ellie as unlikable and uncompelling. [12] Ultimately, Croshaw would call it the worst game of 2020. [13]

An example of antimetabole

In late September 2019, British comedian John Oliver jokes that, in what he calls "Stupid Watergate 2," U.S. President Donald Trump wanted Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to get dirt on Biden and was "looping in both someone [ U.S. Attorney-General William Barr] so involved in the government they should be nowhere this kind of petty dirt and someone [ Rudy Giuliani] so involved in petty dirt they should be nowhere near the government." [14]
