I’m on a Pixel XL (original) right now - got a free upgrade from my Nexus 6P - and, honestly, I’d probably take something like a OnePlus 5T over this. No 120hz display or stereo speakers, and probably slightly shorter battery life, but you’re getting everything else - plus a headphone jack, and a display that’s likely…

But it’s not just 30 seconds of initial awkardness? Having to bring a whole separate device - the controller - with me just to play games on my phone is an ongoing annoyance, compounded by the additional irritation of having to snap the phone and the controller into a clasp thingy - which is always top heavy and kinda…
Eh, I know a lot of people would think of it as a ‘gimmick’, as you say, but I really would have preferred something with a slide-out game controller—it would’ve made this thing perfect for playing ports of games originally designed with physical controls in mind - KotOR or GTA or whatever - and even better for…
I adored Artemis Fowl growing up—it was one of the first series I ever truly read for pleasure, as opposed to homework or what have you. As I’m now studying for a degree in literary criticism, I have a lot to thank Eoin for!
This is super cool to hear! It’ll be nice to play as Max again, even if - since this is a prequel of a prequel - she won’t have her powers.
I really think you’re underestimating how regulation-happy the EU can be at times—and theirs are generally the sorts of regulations that a shitty obtuse TOS can’t defeat.
This whole thing’s given me one of the best laughs I’ve had in weeks.
My guess - and this really is just a guess - is that they might pull other people’s custom characters into the world to populate, like, the backgrounds of bars and stuff.
Still holding out hope that, when CDPR eventually go back to The Witcher franchise, it’ll be for a Ciri-lead spinoff that’ll involve at least one trip to the old man’s vineyard to catch up.
I mean, don’t send threats and harassment to the people who did come up with this whole thing, either? Like, I think it’s an incredibly shitty business model, that deserves extensive criticism, but harassing devs on social media - particularly with death threats - is never justified.
Yeah they had him on After Trek, and he consulted on the show’s central doohickey.
Ah yes, while waiting for STD’s break to be over, I think I’ll rewatch some:
Right, but that feature’s never worked reliably for me on my Xbox - nor on a couple of my friends’ Xboxes - so I have no faith in it whatsoever—particularly as downloading patches and games from Xbox Live takes far longer than it does on my PC, for whatever reason. It also doesn’t help when you’ve just bought a game,…
I’ve never had much luck with that, honestly. And these days, I have to turn it off, ‘cause my Xbox One makes an ungodly racket when it’s in standby. The power supply fan makes a high pitched whine, and the console’s constantly clicking away with random noises—I think it’s mainly the HDD?
I dunno, I’ve spent way more time waiting for irritating console updates and game patches on my Xbox One than I have downloading drivers and patches for PC. Consoles haven’t been ‘just pick up a controller and play’-friendly for a good long while now.
I just* want Ahsoka, for real. Like, I get that Bossk’s technically been in a major Star Wars film, and not just the cartoons - which I would heartily recommend, btw! - or whatever, but come on! How does he get billing over pretty much the most beloved Star Wars character in the whole canon expanded universe? (Not to…
They’ve said the Klingon War’ll be wrapped up by the end of season 1, so you’ll hopefully get your wish!
