At least they changed it up for 7 and 8

People might be surprised to find that many scientists use the same methods over and over, so when we’re reporting their results we sometimes get called out for plagiarism…of the last thing we wrote, particularly the methods section. It’s pretty weird how it makes sense to put the same (or nearly identical) text to…

Wait until people hear about Disney, they made 5 movies and a couple series that reuse assets from 6 previous movies from the 70s, 80s, and 00s and several other series, and they have literally dozens of movies using the same assets as a bunch of old comic books too. Now I hear they’re making several movies reusing…

The total subscription fee is not profit. 

If we assume they’re taking 6 years to develop a AAA game, then a studio that has been bought 4-5 years ago and hasn’t released a AAA game and won’t for 1-2 years had accomplished approximately nothing prior to acquisition, which seems like not a lot.

“This is not to say our technology is far from reaching level 5 autonomous”

Maybe phones can use some fancy sensor that’s already built in and defaults to on to detect velocity and ask if the person fucking around with their phone is driving. But what does that have to do with Tesla installing games on a screen intended for use by the driver (it’s how everything except the speed of the car is…

And at least Apple (idk about Android) has a car mode that can be turned on if a driver wants to reduce distractions while driving. It’s like the “honor system”. But that won’t stop the keep-your-laws-off-my-shitty-driving lobby.

The Hyundai EVs were so small when we went to look at them. I’m 6’5” and couldn’t even fit inside. And despite 4 doors, there’s no 4 people that could comfortably sit inside an Ioniq or Kona. The Ioniq 5 might be better but I’m not holding my breath.

Then it will fit in as part of a Model 3 interior perfectly. We test drove the Teslas in 2020 when we were shut out of the Rav4Prime by the $25,000 markups at dealerships, and the Nissan or worse interior quality was a real turnoff. 

It’s shitty but I’m thinking Take-Two is within their rights. A trademark can be a common saying such as “it takes two” so long as it (or a very similar derivative) is not being used by someone else and the filer intends to use it for a marketing or business purpose. Legal Eagle goes into this in explaining why LeBron…

Is that because their net revenue is almost 20 times that of Take-Two in 2020?

That’s an absurd and stupid argument. If you want to play many PS games online with other players, you must pay for PS+. I do for just that reason and have yet to play one of the monthly games because I don’t have time for them while I do want to play online.

That’s why I’ve been stuck at mediocre gamer…

Not too excited by this. I’d like GTAIV and RDR (both PSeffing3 games) on my PS5, but I’m not looking to replay OG Ridge Racer, Tekken, Twisted Metal 2, or NFL GameDay.

I feel similarly about the grind, but I think the OP calling it a demo is fair. They’re giving players a chance to play the mechanics of the game without ever being able to complete the story, which sounds like a demo.

That would also depend on the developer compensation. A dev isn’t giving their game away, but MS isn’t throwing trucks of money at games that won’t drive subscriptions. And this game doesn’t seem like anyone is signing up for GamePass to play it. 

An important difference is, (I hope) no one pays for PS+ for free games but rather for online play on their PlayStation, which unfortunately has been a standard cost across platforms. No one would ever pay for access the the Epic Games Store because it doesn’t offer a service besides selling games, which isn’t…

I’m gonna guess that’s why the game hasn’t done better

How about the Model 3? No one is ashamed of saying they own a Model 3, but let’s list the Tesla models: Roadster, Model S(edan), Model X (like crossover, I guess), Model 3...the forth Telsa model. Honorable mention the Model Y (why, why pay $70,000 for a cheaply build car?). I was sad when Honda brought back their…
