Have they ever given a good reason as to why Call of Duty games are so god damned massive? Do they not compress anything? For what reason? Always been wild to me. It’s not like load times are significantly better between Call of Duty and smaller shooters either.

This is a good fight that has been needing to happen for a long, long time. I worry that someone like Bungie still isn’t quite big enough to make an impact, but hopefully it begins a process of changing at their horrible take down system.

Isn’t the only way Google has been getting away with this the fact that nobody’s ever tried to take them to court? All this “we’re a for-profit company, not a public utility” and “we’re not employers and don’t have to abide by labor laws” horseshit needs to go away at somepoint.

Godspeed Bungie. I hope at the very…

There’s a Half-Life 3 joke in here somewhere.

Nintendo, please be more Sega.

The DMCA was a HUGE FUCKING MISTAKE.

In the United States, that same card sells for only around $500 - $700.

holy shit that’s even worse!

Just wait until it is included in a meme rundown video of the past five years by the Internet Historian.

Just admit you lost interest and aren’t going to finish the series. It would be less disappointing. Its never going to be done, its been more then a decade, I don’t even want it anymore.  Last two books kinda sucked and I have no reason to assume the quality of a finished book 6 would be worth the wait.  I used to be…
