Sure there’s general use iso ripping tools for regular cd’s and software, but unless most regular cd readers still won’t recognize most physical copies of games. At least in my experience.

Am I? What did I steal? We don't own games, we own a license to play them. So if by buying a copy I now am entitled to play it, how is it stealing to download it? At most im complicit with thieves, but not actually a thief as long as I purchased a copy. But whatever, you just want to feel better than people I guess.…

Do you have a point, or are you just gonna repeat what I said in oversimplified terms? It's a grey area even Im not sure how I feel about. But nobody makes this stuff readily available and as long as that's the case, the high seas are people's only option. Besides I only downloaded what I owned physically.

I’d like to see someone make and sell cd drives and include software that allows people to rip their own games. I’d do it for mine, but the process is so damn painful I give up and just download from a piracy site. I still own the game, it just wasn’t ripped from my disk. Someone should do something about that.

Can’t help but notice how a few of these stories are light on details. Not everyone can be the victim I guess, but at least they didn’t try to lie about it unless you count by omission.

Nah, they’de use it as an excuse to make content showing viewers best practices to prevent this very thing from happening to them, and what will help from a backup standpoint if it does. 

Umm yeah, I said that in my comment...

Yeah Linus’ has backups. But so does YouTube. They can undo any deletion that happened within a certain period of time. Most respectable business with a reputable IT team has a way to recover any data that’s lost whether it’s emails, videos, hell down to an individual computer’s system image. As long as it was noticed…

Meh, this should be treated like any situation where children fight over a toy. Take the toy away. Nobody gets CoD until you can both learn to share. Honestly though it’s the Fast and the Furious of video games. Time to put it to rest. It doesn’t innovate, it doesn’t do anything interesting anymore. It just has a long…

This list is all kinds of fucked. Nothing after Syndicate was any good and Syndicate itself was mediocre. Anything after Black Flag, was the series in decline. Everything between 2 and Black Flag was golden age of AC with the exception of 3. Connor was a fucking bore. Origins,Odyssey, Valhalla, none of them are true…

I’m kind of skeptical the children of the watch and death watch are actually that closely connected. Death watch was never that overly zealous to the point they’d teach their kids to be like the of the watch are. They were never all about never revealing their faces to others either. That plus none of them bear the…

You realize that was 19 years ago. Things change.

I still dont even know wtf starfield even is. theyve barely announced anything other than its scifi and there are planets and ships. It’s bethesda though so I’m assuming its just scifi elder scrolls in space?

I mean since we are gonna criminalize poverty anyways, why don’t we just create poverty prisons where homeless can voluntarily “incarcerate” themselves. They’ll get three square meals and a roof, it can be integrated with the nonviolent offender sections of existing prisons, and as long as they test free of drug…

I mean a super easy fix would be to not be dicks about it and simply to include that stuff day 1. They’ve already developed it. People have had their hands on it. Might as well just treat it like part of the core game now. Probably won’t happen, but of life was fair that’s how it should be done. At the very least I…

Honestly confused about why this dude got pissed and went rogue. He just wanted his name in the credits earlier than he was getting? Like why would you receive credit before your content is even present in the game? Is there something I'm not getting here?

most basketball star inspired stuff looks terrible imho.

Darth Vader is the emporer’s enforcer and entitled to special accommodation. Your average stormtrooper peon gets massed produced junk. that shit isnt blocking anything let alone a concentrated beam of energy capable of slicing through steel like butter.

Still not as realistic as the Jedi knight 2 games. You can clearly see moments where his lightsaber makes full contact with flesh and either glances off, or passes through. It still does damage but doesn't dismember like it should. The thing that makes a lightsaber feel powerful is that if it hits flesh, it's going…

I didn't mind the extra bill+frank content, but I did miss the funny bits of interaction between Bill and Ellie. I felt like they could have worked that in somewhere. Apart from that, my only other grip is how Ellie's actress just doesn't feel the same to me. Part of it is the look, but there's something else I can't…
