Another few years and they’ll have amortized all of this Hellcat/platform development so it will be < 30 grand,new, right?

I can’t even be mad. Dodge is, and needs to continue milking this shit.

This being the Druckmann who only last week took a swipe at Schreier for dating to suggest comparison of the game to a Holocaust film is a tad unsavoury and since launch has been making rather passive-aggressive digs at audience reception to the game?

It felt like a stretch... until I re-read the obvious reference to the game director. I get the impulse, but I think it’s fair to consider this a swipe at the game director by some overworked employees.

Well, for one thing, there are many mad scientist tropes. Mixing animals and humans, or reanimating dead tissue, etc. The choice of “pushing human limits” is almost certainly a joking reference to how hard his team works. I’m not here to tell you whether you should get mad about a dev joking about crunch. But what you…

seems that you can interpret that in a million different ways, but doing such a lame self-insert is the real crime here.

You do realize if they explicitely put “our company makes us feel obligated to work 14 hours a day” they would get terminated, right? They need to do it tongue in cheek.

That was not my interpretation of the card at all. It sounded more like a mad scientist trope. It seems like we’re just trying to find things to be mad about. 

Druckmann seems well adjusted.

Henry Ford’s company and Nazis? Who would ever think those two would go together?

It’s a fucking Wrangler-fighting Bronco, if it were a rebadged Everest you’d bitch and complain about that too.

as it takes on the Jeep Wrangler for dominance among the off-roading parking on curbs at the mall and doing 95 on off-road tires crowd.

Oh, I understand property values. But I don’t believe someone’s interest in their property values should infringe upon a neighbor’s right to live how they want to live.

I think telling someone what kinds of cars they should own, or how those cars should look is absurd. If the person is burning huge mountains of trash,…

Your property not looking pretty to someone negatively affects their house value.

Maybe I’ll make a Jalopnik “Take Your Frustrations Out On A Kia Rio” event! (Socially-distanced, of course). 

Unfortunately, not an HOA, but City Ordinance.

In the words of Yoko Taro, “Life is unfair.”

Games didn’t install to the Xbox so there wasn’t much of a speed difference. They cached some content but that was about it. It was only 8GB and only about 1GB was used as a cache. Reloading after you died on some games was faster (GTA would preload and then stream so no difference there) but each time you put in a…

I really don’t think people remember how important that HDD was to game performance. The difference in speed and quality between a lot of XB and PS2 games was almost laughable.

Talking about GTA on the Xbox the internal hard drive meant it had the best feature of all for San Andreas. Custom music on console.
