that actually makes a lot of sense. 

maybe TLOU PT2 didn’t meet internal sales expectations?

i agree with what you’ve said, except that malinger is misused here. it means:

the difference is that Nightdive paid money to license the game. the fan made version was a reverse engineered remaster done for the love of the game, had no money involved, and the fans were probably only allowed to do so under the condition that if they succeeded in their work, Alcon would receive the profits from…

to be honest, that video was so difficult to sit through, lol! people need to reconcile themselves to the fact that the mario they think they want is not necessarily a good thing.

as an 80's kid, this is how he’s always sounded to me. the martinet voice is the “new” and non-canonical voice to me, lol. 

considering that charles martinet’s dialogue is only ever about half a page long, and mostly consists of simple sounds, and that his accent can be produced by just about anyone with the right amount of shamelessness, i don’t think he’s quite the obvious choice for casting a feature length film.

i feel like Cruz could be doing more with his time. until i remember that his entire raison d’etre is to stall literally any and all socially beneficial legislation. so i guess it makes sense that he wastes taxpayer dollars playing FTP games, probably while he’s getting the Boebert Special.

we’re maybe only a year away from a PS5 slim. a ps5 pro will then follow two years after that.

kotaku villainizes everyone except themselves.

i think AI should accommodate people’s differences, including radical differences, rather than make everyone conform to a the g-rated corporate version of reality pushed on us by Disney. i think we’ve all been exposed, for far too long, to Disney’s anodyne capitalism. it’s literally nuked our brains and made us think…

yeah absolutely this. 

stop infantilizing asians

i dunno about this. there are still places in the world where men travel to neighboring villages to steal themselves some wives, and all that happens without the internet, and is objectively worse than anything related to porn.

i’d rather have voice assistants be adaptable to each person’s needs, and not some one-size fits all solution, devoid of personality.

on the other hand, if the goal is effective AI it should be flexible enough to communicate with whomever, based on their preferences, whether that’s a paperclip, dog, man or woman. 

i’m not sure mobile gaming is really the problem at this point—clearly the issue is the F2P, overly-monetized grind. Mobile wasn’t the first platform to feature free games loaded with microtransactions—that would be the PC with its army of F2P MMORPGs.

i’m never going to buy a PC that meets the standards of the current generation of consoles. that’s a couple grand i’m unwilling to part with just for the sake of losing an argument. so, i only speak from my own perspective: a playstation exclusive just means that I can play it on my playstation. i guess you could even …

i feel like the odd person out—i only play on playstation, as that’s all i can afford, but for that same reason i’ve always reconciled myself to the fact that there will be exclusives i simply can’t play. at the same time, i’m very happy that sony has as many top flight exclusives as they do. so i just get over it and…

the subheading of this article says “Xbox fans get it for free”, which is hilarious:
