I admire the heck out of the author for how he handled it. It’s always nice when people can display a sense of humor about themselves. Kind of makes me think I should check out his work.

That would be a good ass cosplay, you should do it!

The battery situation for PSPs has been a problem for a while now. Nobody out there is making a 3rd party battery that isn’t trash, the best solution anyone has come up with involves removing the UMD drive, dismantling a battery, and soldering together a makeshift solution with a lithium battery from another source.…

I haven’t been feeling them either, and none of the games journalists I follow seem particularly interested either. Interestingly, much like you they seemed far more fascinated by what Sucker Punch achieved with Ghosts of Tsushima than any of the titles announced for the new generation of consoles. The tech keeps…

And if you have a PS3 you can still transfer it to your PSP!

Yeah, I had a friend who’s husband recruited in school in rural areas and their goal was to make positive impressions on all the kids they came across with a focus on high school kids. You may not be able to recruit them now but get them interested and keep them that way until they can sign up.

Usually military…

Thanks for covering this Stephen! I appreciate good journalists not letting this story go.

I use a pi-hole and see virtually no ads on this page aside from links to sponsored posts about grills and Amazon items on the right side of the screen.

Oh, I thought that was Moby.

I hate that I’m about to say this but part of me feels a little bad forZaimont here. A LITTLE. I was an edgy teen weeb once too, I know that incredibly awful brand of trying to appear thoughtful while also lowkey negging. Being approached by a very cute woman who’s cut from the same weeby cloth, I can imagine it…

Would it really have been so hard for him to say “Ma’am, you are right, that child is not dressed properly and his family should not have been served that was my mistake”? There’s no getting out of this situation without exposing himself as racist, but the dude could have at least made it easier for everyone by…

This new art style doesn’t thrill me, but I have to admit it does pop and Crash blends well with the environments. I have to wonder if this is going to be the start of a larger Crash Bandicoot multimedia push. The new style does seem like it would lend itself very easily to a Sonic Boom style cartoon series.

Two things. Nobody with positive intentions has ever used the term “virtue signalling” in a serious manner. The majority of the board gamers I’ve known have been exactly the type of person who has a very long way of telling you they aren’t racist that’s followed swiftly by a “but” and a screed that sounds remarkably…

You’re not wrong, most people are exceedingly happy to pretend the confederacy is the beginning and the end of American racism. There’s some use in identifying it as the loudest single expression of the problem, but if there’s an entire orchestra playing next door while you’re trying to sleep you don’t just complain…

The master slave thing was absolutely always weird. As other commenters noted there are just a plethora of better word pairs to convey the same relationship, but a lot of tech world has people who find swastikas, homophobia, and racist slurs to be the absolute height of humor. If you call something primary/secondary…

I don’t know if I’d go as far as saying it’s the best action RPG combat system, but it’s definitely up there.

It feels like Monster Hunter, but Monster Hunter World and not the slightly clunkier classic games. And it’s not just an action game, the RPG elements are important and effective use of items, skills, and…

I’ve got a Moto Z series phone and the gamepad attachment, I can very much imagine playing this on a phone. Playing it with touch controls though? Now that sounds like a bad time.

Trickle down is 100% the problem. Pitchford got his bonus without penalty due to the cost of development, the other devs weren’t so lucky. When things trickle down you’re just waiting for the scraps left to you, not the portion your work has actually earned.

I almost bought a Vita dozens of times but could never take the dive because I knew the up front cost came with the large hidden cost of that proprietary memory card. I did eventually buy a Vita with a memory card bundled and the touch controls are a problem, but one I can live with. They were the worst when it came…

I guess it was a mistake to call The World Sinks Except Japan a sequel, rather it’s a re-imagining where every other country sinks and only Japan is left. They’re a weird pair of movies and neither one is necessarily good but I prefer the diplomatic drama of The World Sinks Except Japan to the ‘70s disaster film of…
