It sounds like the narration may also be AI / CGI generated?

Has Ada ever appeared in a Resident Evil game that didn’t have Leon in it?

It’s certainly possible that’s the case. But I suspect that, had they been so inclined some very minor changes could have left her fate more ambiguous. As is, they’re going to have to either pull some Wesker level hi-jinks, or do some narrative tap dancing with the Mold if they want to use her again.

Given her seemingly positive initial response, I was surprised that they appear to have done so little with her in game, and then wrote her out so completely.  It sort of seems like they’re leaving money on the table, so to speak.

But wait, don’t Apple phones contain an internet browser?  One that comes pre-installed on the device?  One that could be used to browse an essentially limitless volume of “adult content”?  Is Apple then on the hook for anything that could be accessed via Safari?

Rather than, “We’ve canvassed our company’s anime fans, and they say your proposed design is a 10. But for an extra $500k, we could build you an 11.”?

There may be method to their madness on that one.  Crappy method, but method none the less.  Depending on the metrics that Epic chooses to report to say, investors, forcing each purchase to be individual could allow them to report that the store has insane repeat business (since every item forces the purchaser to…

So that leaves Ace Attorney Investiations 2 as the only Phoenix Franchise game without a western release?

Hmm... getting a real Sweeny Todd vibe off someone hitting max level in an MMO only through baking pies.

But there is an incentive.

You seem to be arguing against points I haven’t made. I’m not assuming malice, merely noting that Sony has an incentive to bungle the matter.

I agree with you that it shouldn’t be a burden to keep the time server running, but they do have a perverse incentive to not do so - effectively bricking their old hardware when it’s long out of warranty encourages users to upgrade to their latest system (especially since the PS5 is almost entirely compatible with the…

I did a PS3 slim last year, and it’s not particularly hard to do, although some care must be taken. You will void your warranty to do it, though (although typically the battery will fail outside of warranty period).

It’s referenced in the Double XP comic. I was unaware of it (for the PS4, at least) until I read the comic, but looked it up afterwards. Basically, the Ps4 has an internal clock, powered by a battery, that it uses to timestamp achievements. Unfortunately, that battery eventually dies. And once it does, the PS4…

The PS4 battery thing is sad to hear.  The Ps3 is plagued by a similar problem (although there the issue only extends to digital purchases).

Given the video’s mention of “exclusive shots, sexy photos, and topless content”, one imagines that she’s got a pretty good idea of that.

I’d argue that Nier is more a case of “Bad communication kills”, over and over again. From the figurative (the Black Scrawl being the result of corrupted data / bad initial copying) to the literal (everything which happens at the Aerie, etc.).

Give it time. While I can’t speak for the “totally not a remake, but still somehow a remake”, the first Nier lures you in with a setup, and then springs a series of essentially unforeseeable twists that make you regret ever playing it, you horrible horrible monster.

Which would have been at least novel, but for…

Presumably, free user accounts can be spoofed, and then those accounts can be used to spam endlessly anyone on a paid account?

She had a “time machine” on her when she died. Theoretically she could have jumped away while falling, done anything she wanted for as long as she wanted (including sourcing more time fuel), and then jumped back into place for her fated demise. Thus Hulk’s resurrection would have failed because, at the time he tried…
