I don’t know about most folks, but very few of the games I play address ideas even related to gender identity or sexuality, because they just don’t matter for what the point of the game is.

Honestly this is why IMO companies should be required to open source the server stuff and allow fans or the public to run their own servers when the company decides to shut them down. I mean I understand why the do it, but at least give the fans the option to keep them going if they want to.  We are at a time where…

I feel like this should really be understood at this point. don’t reveal your nintendo IP related projects until you release it and do so using a vpn and burner accounts. once it is in the wild it is in the wild and Nintendo can't do much to stop it.

Article Title: 23 Years Later, We’ve Discovered An Amazing GameCube Easter Egg

You see how this title is structed, right? Creates assumption that something BRAND NEW has been found, right? You mock yourself, but yet you also knew many people would click based on that title and waste their time.

You had to have known…

Did... did this “article” time travel from 2002?

Same. I got the project killswitch case for it from Dbrand and a anker battery pack to attach to it. Been playing MH World at work while it’s the slow season 

Same. Girlfriend lets me play it as long as I’m “hanging out” with her. But the amount of money I’ve spent on games due to owning this thing is absurd. I don’t even want to know.

I’d have split the difference. Have Sutherland be both Venom and Ishmael in the prologue, and then much later on with the prologue replay have Sutherland still be Venom while Hayter became Ishmael/Big Boss.

Replacing Hayter was especially stupid considering:

Not surprising.

I can’t help but feel this is the dumbest story I’ve read about all week.

I covered some of this in a different reply, but I think you’re conflating the Steam platform with the Steam store. The platform does no trade and generates no revenue, it can’t be a monopoly by definition.

I’d love some clarification on your statement. The image seems pretty straightforward to me.

So... how exactly does exclusivity benefit consumers? Nobody’s complaining about having more choices. They’re complaining about having fewer choices as a result of arbitrary exclusivity deals. For example, being able to buy and play Dead Island 2 on Steam, GOG, the MS Store and EGS would have been great. Customers…

You certainly managed to draw a lot of conclusions about games that are 100+ hours long without actually playing them, based entirely on very small amounts of information. Clearly, we have found our new authority on the subject.

What makes Hamas’ killing of civilians any more terroristic than the IDF’s? Because the IDF has already killed well over 3,000 children since October 7th.Why can they kill civilians but Hamas can’t?

Damn. Bibi must be so envious.

They were elected, just like Bibi was elected!
