Which is a shame because outside of the Switch and the N64, the Gamecube was Nintendo’s greatest console

I don’t imagine you buy Nintendo to then gut Nintendo. You let them keep doing their Nintendo thing and support them with hardware. In theory it’s a win/win. Changing the operating procedure of one of the most influential companies in history would be bad business.

The tweaks to progression, while not perfect, definitely reward you more now for the way to play and the challenges are easier. I think the most painful one I had recently was to kill someone with a hydra missile and capture a flag. Otherwise I’m knocking out one or two challenges per match without really changing how…

I don’t love the coating but I have to say that paying $10 isn’t that bad considering that I’ve played a ton of hours of Halo Infinite already. Eventually there might be a point of diminishing returns and the battlepass progression still needs a tweak or seven, but if you’re playing a lot you might as well pay the $10…

commercials were just built differently in the 90s

I’m not much into Soulsborne games, they just never really grabbed me and they all kinda muddle into one single thing for me but my old roommate LOVED them. I’m wondering if this is the sorta thing I should try.

Not tanks specifically but back when BF1942 was a thing I was a pilot. Strictly a pilot. I would sometimes be a medic when I wasn’t a pilot but I was in a plane 90% of the time and that game made me get my first flight stick so I could be a better pilot and I was. So I totally get this.

Imagine being so shitty all your siblings will go on record to say how shitty you are

One other thing that’s also very annoying is that even if you WANT to keep track of which challenges you’re doing, the game doesn’t let you. AFAIK there’s no way to check which weekly challenges you currently have in your rotation from within a round, so if you have to kill someone with a gun 10 times there’s no way…

gotta force and update. If you haven’t already go into the system menu on your xbox for the game and click on updates. I had to do that in order to force mine to download.

I’m unsure but are these special new islands accessible solely via Kapp’n or do the dodo air flights also go there?

Just like you lose access to gamepass games if you let your membership lapse. Is the N64 membership tier super great currently? No. But let’s not pretend that every other console manufacturer that offers games through a service doesn’t do the same thing. 

“He went on to cite, as one example of this growing cohort of emasculated sinners, Jay Wells, an Ohio man who recently dropped out of a $34,000-a-year college and told the Wall Street Journal in September, “I’m sort of waiting for a light to come on so I figure out what to do next.””

man makes rational decision and…

“I think these eight little weirdos make for a great send-off to New Horizons”

I mean, I touch my switch for Animal Crossing and the occasional game like Luigi’s Mansion. I have gamepass and play some games on my Xbox and I don’t have acces to an N64 nor the desire to hunt down an emulator. I have given Ocarina a go on this and it’s pretty much what I want. If i don’t see value in it next year…

“Calling someone by their dead name is considered offensive. None of this applies to a fictional character like McCree.”

Comparing McCree to Batman is a stretch.

I can think of a few other examples people and pop culture just adjusted to

The Artist Formerly Known As

People change their name all the time and everyone around them adjusts. There’s no reason this should be any different. 

She does go on in her post to name the PA that was hurt and paralyzed.

I think the demand is there, for sure, but I also think scalping drives up the need for demand. The PS5 is incredibly hyped because it’s hard to get, making it a luxury item, which means more people are willing to buy one because it’s a cool status thing. I think they would still be selling but you’d be more capable…
