Three hokey outdated things that should never be used in a title for any medium:

Sell all that shit over to Disney already. The Broccoli days need to be over with anyway. Of course, we’ll end up with stuff like “Baby M: A Bond Story”, “Mi6 Hills 90210", “001-006: The Animated Series”, and “James Bond: The Ride”, but hey keep on keepin’ on!

It’s to mitigate the rate of annual suicides during the holidays. And to be frank, fuck holiday songs and their subsequent usage in shopping mall and commercial propaganda.

People seem to expect these superhero films to be Hamlet and to perfectly fit to today’s social norms and logistics. Keep expectations in check and calm down.

Award shows are annual big advertising get-together events. It’s done because casuals fall for it year after year after year. Years ago, I used to work in music and video retail.

Back in the PS2 days, their release teams were strict AF. After constant complaints from publishers, they caved and loosened up a bit mid-PS3 era. Which was a big mistake, imo. Especially with the oncoming era of day one patches, etc where devs and publishers could exploit the fuck out of them just to make their…

These number-crunching RPG nerd devs need to fucking pack up their leveling up bullshit and get out of action games.

If the in and out load times on the PS5 for RDR2 are cut at least in half, it's already a major win.

For example though, check out the dude’s elbow in the car image above. Creating soft body models and textures that can convincingly press against itself and other surfaces would be a pretty insane benchmark to hit.

Like the good old days.

A min spec blog is actually a really interesting thing to see what gets sacrificed to the pixel gods.

It's pretty nice to be able to add/remove stuff to where the original version is barely noticeable, although it probably drives the assembly line guys insane. lol
