I am trying to comprehend the demographics of the actual players who are involved. How old are they, and why a penguin game? And why did people feel compelled to create private servers for it in the first place?

We made a preset we called “Duck Hunt”. Max amount of sims. Pistols (1h and 2h). One-hit kills. Either a 5min timer or first to 25.

Post-PD, the state of first-person shooters have continued to disappoint me in terms of features. Perfect Dark should’ve been the floor, not the ceiling.

Once anime is able to move away from the generic big-eyed, pointy-chinned, spiky haired schoolgirl/nerd guy stereotypes, then we’ll talk.

I’m interested in seeing how protective Microsoft will be on this. My initial expectation is they'll stomp it out of existence.

So how do the Chinese food and pizza places manage their delivery services? They were doing it well before the GrubHubs and the Doordashes showed up.

Assuming the vibration feature works on some of them, they'd sell great as sex toys for the ladies.

Easy solution. Don’t ever release games on PC. Console Master Race says hi!

I’m still looking for the ultimate gaming couch, actually. It has to be firm but soft, provide a functional but stylish spot to place my controllers, keyboards, headsets, phones, etc, built-in power charging outlets if possible, and armrests that can be flexed into pillows.

I still like the chat bubble approach they use. Cracked me up back in the PSO days. This game needs to come to the PS4 asap.

I think they could’ve gotten away with keeping the title, if instead of plastering it out front it was relegated to the top panel next to the ferns.

Not surprised. We have to keep in mind that back then developing on the PS3 was difficult. Most studios preferred the X360's learning curve first. Simultaneous development would be a slow torture, and trying to port X360 code to the PS3 after the fact was usually an expensively bad idea.

Every Buford scene could easily be turned into a classic quotable clip/meme/gif.

This film has always been a permanent part of my collection. The sense of freedom in the way Bandit circulates himself, both in and out of his wheels, is just simply awesome. Add in a mixture of real jokes and cheap laughs, layer it with Jackie Gleason’s genius ad libbing and timing, with a plotline involving staying…

I’m still waiting for a wild animal fighting game, with the title being:

Here’s the strange thing. Folks on my friendlist who try this end up making theirs, then laugh that the app wasn’t able to come close to what they look like, no matter how hard they tried. Laughing at incompetent half-assed apps. That’s their audience.

Is there anything original created in China that we can rip off to return the favor and offend them?
