I am reminded of an Asheron’s Call bug, where because they were hashing player account names, it was entirely possible to get non-random behavior in combat resulting in characters that were stormtrooper-like in ability to be killed by mobs.

#10 is a bad example. Investors don’t necessarily check their portfolios in down markets because it’s a bad time to sell any of their holdings; they would just be wasting time and scaring themselves into exiting their positions at the worst possible time. Down markets are when you go bargain hunting, not wound…

How did I know that we couldn’t have a thread where some moron didn’t try to defend the policies of West Fuckistan because they are actual fucked policies that can be interpreted in overly broad and racist ways, to intimidate and ‘make a point about who is in charge’ to a child.

If a white kid built a clock, he…

This child has learned a valuable lesson about how great America actually is.

Usually a beta is more-or-less feature complete. You’re saying it exited alpha.

Thats funny, every time you pre-order 30 things, I decide to wait until they are in the bargain bin instead of buying them immediately after launch.

Pre-orders are how you get bad software. You’re contributing to consumer unfriendly practices and low quality products. There is no reason to pre-order something that can be downloaded digitally on day one, when stores will have the items in stock the moment they open with no danger of running out, except that you…

I’m still confused how this is any different than a Roku player, besides its branding (and price). It has a low power processor and a little motion controlling wand that plays Angry Birds too.

Admittedly, I’ve got a game console, and a PC, and a tablet, and a smartphone, and a blu-ray player that gets netflix and…

I’m not playing MGS V (yet) and there is no way in hell I am ever reinstalling Destiny no matter if they promise me the new expansion is better than sex (its called respecting your players time and money). But outside of bitterness and salt towards Bungie, I just have no experience with any of the MGS series so I…

Just wait until No Man’s Sky is released, this will be the guy who is going to map every planet.

ωLabyrinth HD?

Hellgate:Londons missions were more diverse. And thats saying something. Considering every map was basically a sewer tunnel.

Considering that one can buy bust enhancing gum and candy in Japan, I suspect this is really just a clever marketing tie-in like those mana potion energy drinks you can buy for World of Warcraft.

Just like Josh Duggar.

Its arguable even a bunch of people working together without saboteurs could play Dark Souls without a compromise for streaming lag. The games central mechanic has a reaction time component.

Its just like speed chess, but with no chess clock, where you can take your time making your next move. So, you know, speed chess.

Kindof asked for specifics, not marketing. What specifically is S3 for example lacking?

And my cable rates will never go up and digital content is free. I will say what I think, but thanks for the advice. You are paying for it and when live costs more in the future you are still paying for it. Duh.

I suppose you would link in an Amazon/S3 or Google Cloud library to your game and have some authentication to say ‘Yes, PSN is willing to pay for this instance because its being accessed by a legitimate PSN customer.’ I assume Sony would run an authentication server to validate the cloud connections.

Serious question, what is so superior about Azure?
