I completely agree that some fucking morons are completely nuts. I mean, all this vitriol and insults and even death threats are just horrible. These people seriously all have a screw loose (more than one, I’d say).

I’m kind of sick of companies trying to name things differently just to give themselves a nicer image. Employees. They’re employees. Stop calling them “associates”. There’s already a word for what these people are, and they’re employees. Stop trying to find a different word, thinking that by changing the word, you’re…

Exclusives are indeed garbage. People often go “well, it’s the same thing on consoles, you know, each have their exclusives”. Yeah, I know. But that doesn’t negate the fact that this sucks nonetheless. It’s just that people are used to it now because it’s been like this since forever. But it still sucks.

This is the tragedy of our times.

Do we know at what price this will get relesased at? I mean, I’m interested, but given the Switch situation where most ports ends up being almost always more expensive there than everywhere else... I often end up waiting for a sale and even so, a sale often means it’s only temporary sold at what is the regular price…

Here’s a list of all the gamers that think Duke Nukem 3D has not aged well :

This gave me an idea. A game in which mass shootings happens all the time, and you’re a figure of authority (president, governor, whatever...) who needs to react publicly. And the only way to react to the shootings is through a button labelled “send thoughts and prayers”. Of course, it’ll do nothing and another mass…

Yeah... That’s pretty coherent, right?

...stop trying to nickle and dime everyone on everything... 

You failed to get the point. The point being that stats are good, but only if you can actually understand why you get the stats you get. Many companies simply look at stats, then assume A leads to B, or B is a result of A, and NEVER consider that both A and B might be linked to C, an element they never even considered.

This is something that I constantly talk about with people. The over-reliance on stats and numbers as a way to sidestep the process of having to think about what’s the right thing to do. It’s the modern dictatorships of stats and numbers. Exit instinct. Exit emotion. Exit gut feeling. Exit passion. Let the cold numbers…

I agree with all you said. I know it is not because the mastering engineers are dumbs. Well, some may be, like in anything these days, but I know it is generally done out of pressure from the higher ups. Although I’ve come across a fair share of people working on “minor” album releases from underground or smaller…

But then that flat fee per month would be pretty high, which will remind people about one of the reason why they cut the cable.

This. And also, where does everyone outside the U.S turns to now? Hulu isn’t available where I live.

Reminds me of an error Walmart Canada had on their website last year. They had an Olympus camera body on special at $799, normaly $1199, which was still a good deal. At least, that’s how it was listed in their flyer. But on their web page, someone probably made an error when entering the price in the database, as it…

I’m currently playing an adventure/survival game called Kona, and the main character smokes. Thing is, while smoking a cigarette will reduce your stress level in ganme, it will also reduce your health bar when doing so. There are other ways in the game to reduce your stress level without resorting to cigarettes, and…

Actually, we should have a “National streaming from your car” day, during which we gather all these people into a small town closed to everyone else for the day, and let the problem sort itself out.

Yeah... that’s a bummer.... I had the same reaction. No Keith Courage? Given that this was a pack-in game with the system back then (in US and Canada at least), including it in there would’ve been a nice way to generate a bit more nostalgia for those who actually bought the system back then.

I still have the music…

I know that, as I do photo-video editing and graphic design myself as a day job. And I still don’t understand. I understand 1440p for a 17" screen, but what I was saying was that there comes a point where the human eye can barely see any difference. You can have the same multi-window openned at once at 1440p or 1080p…

I actually fell asleep while watching it. I really wanted to like it, as a fan of Harlock since the ‘78 series. But it was really “meh”, to me. Not “bad”, just not able to keep my interest sparked.
