Gordon Ramsey confirmed for head engineer on a battleship that has to deal with pilots constantly trashing their mecha.

Punishment not fitting the crime. Even the 25 years the prosecution had hoped for honestly isn’t enough in my mind.

It’s draconian simply because all of the big companies that likely heavily lobbied for this that are crying about piracy and copyright infringement only care about the short-term in their outlook. Whatever makes the shareholders happy now and (theoretically) makes them more money now is what they shoot for every time.…

I’m glad that it looks like we’re trending towards more detailed art. For a period, it seemed like everyone was in a race to go minimalistic (presumably to lighten the load on the overworked, underpaid staff), but it always just came across poorly to me with the lack of shading.

“And if there’s a God, I really hope he can convince Sega to port it to PC.”

The save data should stay, even if the battery to power the actual VMU unit goes. I’m pretty sure my VMU stopped functioning on its own years back, and I still have had access to all of the saves on it.

On one hand, review bombs can be easily abused for nefarious purposes on something you simply don’t like/agree with (though, in the case of some clearly offensive media that Steam lets through, maybe that’s not a bad thing to draw Steam’s attention to). We’ve all seen what the power of trolls has wrought via social…

1) “Live Services” are yet another sham the AAA industry has found to exploit. If they weren’t a sham, everything would be expansions, like an MMO, and you wouldn’t need to buy “Destiny 2" or a new yearly release in a core series that has a new setting, story, and characters, but still wants you logging in and playing…

My main exposure to SMB1 was through Deluxe on the GBC, which meant a smaller screen area to navigate the game with. Needless to say, 8-3 sucks.

I had it at one point as well - pretty sure it was my dad’s. But, I’ve long since grown out of them and I don’t have kids of my own, so I opted to pass all of mine on to my cousin since he now has two little rugrats on his end.

It’s like a modernized version of the set below, but with a ton of detail added to it. While it is filling me with nostalgia, my time with having buckets of LEGO in the house has long since passed.

I don’t know any general details, but you have to assume that money is changing hands, otherwise it makes no sense.

Well, there wasn’t a press release about it, but, yes, it was mentioned in a graphic during the Direct, since the fandom has known about this for a week already.

“That... doesn’t make sense”

theirs, not there’s*; 15 minute edit limit is dumb.

This is hyper capitalism at its core. The executives that (basically) do nothing except focus test everything and make it as bland as possible (and then complain when things don’t meet extremely unrealistic sales expectations, either due to 1) being bland/bad, 2) not enough development time/low budget/crunch, 3)…

Seriously, how can you not have the mechs at all? (Beyond EA/Respawn wanting to just put yet another BR game out there with minimal effort to jump on the craze and try to make “free money” well after it hit its overall peak...)

> 45 minute to 1 hour maps, both sides slowly chipping away at each other’s troops

This also would hamper the scalper market too (this is a good thing), since they wouldn’t be stealing preorders from customers that actually want the item as those customers would be able to successfully get preorders in and get items that they want.

If Ethan has to make a post that specifically includes a link mentioning that a lot of people haven’t been able to get in, I think it at least deserves a quick mention from EA or someone working on Anthem beforehand of “hey, this is how we’re doing this so that the servers don’t crash”. Letting users in on the plan…
