I never finished Season 1. The USNC stuff I thought was mostly pretty solid, everything else was pretty bad. I got up through episode 7, the only all Kwan episode, and it is easily one of the single worst hours of scripted television I have ever seen in my 42 years. It was so bad that I dropped the show entirely and…

$6 per skin seems like a bargain in my eyes

Part of the issue is that you can’t just pay $6 and get one costume. You have to pay $10 to buy the tokens to get that one costume, at which point you’re stuck with extra tokens. So theoretically unless you’re buying exactly 5 costumes for $30 (or the next multiple up) you’re carrying around extra tokens.

Torrenting can't be stealing if paying for it isn't owning.

Because the contract says Sony can do exactly what they’re doing?

I bet they will be. Its a classic class action suit and I don’t see how you couldn’t win.

10 years ago it would have been $2. And it’s still a full priced game with multiple tiers of “deluxe edition” and with peer to peer matchmaking, so they can’t even use “but the server costs!!” as an excuse.

They really should be taken to court for this. Licenses expiring is a common thing in digital distribution. The solution is to pull the licensed content from the store, not user libraries. That’s been the standard practice for games, I don’t see why it should be any different for movies or TV shows.

This is one of the many reasons I’ve started collecting blu-rays and 4k discs in 2023. 

would love to know what it feels like to be 20 right now and have grown up with only one gta game your whole life and see this announcement. 

YOU LET MY BEAUTIFUL KARLACH DIE?!?!

tbh I’m not convinced a few of the latest class of kotaku writer are even real.

the first sentence made me laugh ‘cause i think you linked the wrong article.  try this one -

Translation: “we’ve designed a system carefully crafted by a complex algorithm to keep you hooked.”

Nice to see that knocking someone out actually has a meaningfully different outcome than killing them now.

Played Immortal on PC and knew what 4 had in store. Didn’t even bother. 

So he was the one in charge during basically its entire marketing period and during the SAG-AFTRA strike, both of which have been largely blamed for the movie’s under-performance at the box office.

I just see The Marvels as being the straw that broke Marvel/Disney’s back. Given the crossovers happening to the streaming shows and the cameos from other Marvel flicks, viewers have finally had it with keeping up. They want to go to the movies and enjoy a movie—not feel they’re being subjected to a current history…

So we have comments from unnamed individuals that we have no evidence are Disney brass, and a comment from Disney brass that doesn’t implicate the director at all? Seems like a big nothingburger to me.

“We gotta blame someone, and it sure as shit ain’t gonna be me”
