Right, but you’re talking about a reverse engineered piece of tech, that was tweaked a bit to cheat and let you play on the screen too. They likely cheated a bit somewhere. Applying power to the wrong pins when you’ve got something special can cause weird things to happen.

Very true. Unfortunately, a lot of people have been playing this as the “Nintendo bricked mah sweetch!” even though it’s not their product, thus not their fault. Thus, offering to repair it if it’s still under warranty is a nice gesture, even though they are not compelled to do so.

Whenever power is involved, all bets are off.

Helps salvage PR for something that isn’t really their fault, but yeah.

If it’s similar to a tales game (on normal difficulty) you should be able to handle most of the game without too much trouble. Now, Tales games have some crazy difficulty levels if you want, but I haven’t seen anything that indicates this does.

In the last few years I’ve noticed a significant up-tick in the number of jaywalkers around the Phoenix area in general. As soon as I heard Uber was going to be testing these vehicles out here I figured it would only be a matter of time until this happened.

It’s slang for stealing in the US too, though less commonly used.

If it helps, I have to remind myself to shift to neutral after I take the car some place to get serviced. Everything is flat out here, so I always park in neutral and just use the e brake. I remeber about half the time, but thankfully have not hot any barriers yet.

I cruise at 80 quite frequently in the Camaro, and it’s a 6 speed. FWIW though, 85 is pushing it as that’s criminal speeding in town(20+ over), and 90 is flat out.

I bought the game regardless of his review, and thoroughly enjoyed it. My issue with his review is that states he doesn’t like the series in the START OF THE REVIEW. Because it’s not another series no less. I’m not asking for a glowing review, I’m saying that he should have left that bit out. It colors the view of the…

Of course. However, a proper review should be relatively unbiased.

When I was younger, mother and I were getting a burger from the drive through. Got our stuff, pulled forward, and were watching traffic. Sitting there for ~20s or so, we suddenly hear *WHAM!* and there’s a skateboarder splayed across the hood coming from the right. Dunno how he didn’t see a big silver town & country,…

To busy looking at cell phone.

Not the same. I read the review in it’s entirety. You apparently did not read the....second paragraph I guess (not sure what to consider the blurb at the top).

Jason got raked over the coals because he basically went into the review assuming he wouldn’t like the game, an wow, he didn’t. It was a pretty biased review. IMO, someone more neutral to the series should have done the review. All I’m going to say on that.

IIRC, ~50% is idea. Honestly, long term storage and Li-ion do not get along. Fully draining the battery can actually be detrimental and damaging to it.

I wish this battery myth would die. Li-ion batteries do no have this issue, and it hasn’t been an issue for ~10 years. They fail over time, from charge cycles. Average lifespan in my experience is ~2-3 years. Pretty much ALL charging systems have something in place to keep you from over or under charging the battery,…

Because I’m not rich enough to afford first class or take planes that don’t offer it. Flying now is simply a shitty experience unless you can afford to make it not be.

Hope not. I bought that dumpster fire (the CE no less), and it’s one of the few purchases I regret (ish. At least the dice and bust are cool)

My money is on spit, bubble gum, and scotch tape.
