Doesn’t X-Men ‘97 come out next year? Unless Sony have some other studio working on a game to capitalize on the uptick in public interest in the X-Men, four/five years is a long ways out.

Eh, I’m fine with Insomniac milking a successful IP to death, because otherwise I don’t think they’d survive the hunt for a new original concept. Their catalog between the late 2000s and the first Spider-Man is awash with middling games to outright flops.

Meanwhile Yost says all other laws on the books about abortion that run afoul of the amendment are still in effect until he’s told otherwise. Because risk-averse doctors are going to go out of their way to test the boundaries of what’s now constitutional.

Between this and the report on Thomas just outright asking people for more money otherwise he'd quit, I’m amazed the SC thinks they have a leg to stand on.

The Xbox One was designed from the ground up to make publishers happy, not the consumer

Same reason Disney and Games Workshop don’t care about the quality of their product; they just want to own the IP. Everything else us superfluous.

Just to add to “toy collecting is a shitshow,” there’s too many releases in any given quarter. Black Series and Marvel Legends used to get a new set every couple months, now there’s multiple sets in a single month. When I started collecting Transformers we’d get one set a year, and a hanful of third-party figs in…

Hey Rockhard, go be a cunt somewhere else.

Why manually enter a smiley emoji in chat every time he drops the n-bomb when he can automate it?

Just because you don’t support Israel doesn’t mean you’re antisemitic. Fuck the every pro-Zionist who conflates the two.

No, I’m pretty sure we could solve a large number of issues if we parked a guillotine outside of every gated community.

It’s 2023 and nobody has figured out how to have real-time inventory checks that work both online and on-prem. Meanwhile every application I’ve seen that tries to alleviate the shortcomings in a company’s ERP system is immediately fucked on day one and will be forever fucked even after the company invests in another…

Auteurs are at their best when they’re simply allowed to create. But man, if the guy wasn’t such an asshole I might have some sympathy.

Part of me wonders if we’ll ever reach a point where the greed gets the better of them. They’ll keep increasing prices because a 10% reduction in sales volume is easily offset by a 20% increase in margins, and once they’ve gone past the tipping point and the product is too expensive for anybody to afford, they’ll just …

Every retail store is trying to be Amazon but without the benefit of hiding the human labor behind a delivery truck. I want something from Target but the discounted price is online only and the store won’t honor it if I purchase in-person? Fine, I’ll order it now and pick it up at the store after work because fuck…

Yep. Buy a DVD for $5 or less, rip it, slap the file on a Plex server and throw the disc into storage.

Last time I was at a Friday’s was pre-pandemic, and even then the food was bland without them also trying to push “value” as a marketing concept. I distinctly remember ordering chicken chunks in buffalo sauce and all that I could taste was old fry oil with zero heat. Hell, I think the ranch they served on the side had…

*laughs in mobile ordering*

Not exactly filling me with optimism about the Gen5 remakes next year.

Turns out when people are allowed to laser focus on a single issue when voting the progressive ideas tend to be popular. Almost as if the first-past-the-goal system of elections reduces choice down to a series of compromises about personal values, and some Republicans are more than happy to betray their beliefs about…
