I saw it on the shelf, so I used impossible, alien technology form the future to learn more about it -
You know. Google.
Why anybody thought it was hinting at anything, more than anything else on the shelves is beyond me. I only bothered to look it up because I want one.
Nobody

There’s not. I actually thought 360 “won” for a long time, but then I actually checked the numbers. I think there’s a “feel” out there that people have about how things went because of how the advertising and such went. 360 seemed to have it in the bag, especially with the Cell being hard to code for/cross-platform…
There is no pattern - Sony has won every generation, if you look at the numbers. They have slow starts, then killer apps/masterpieces/industry-changing things happen, prices drop, the library gets a lot better, etc. Sony is good at getting good, fun games out. MSFT is good at a couple of genre greats, but they rarely…
They’re not, though - they make their money on software/media sales and subscriptions to services. This has been the case with many systems for a very long time. They’ve stated aloud that they don’t care how you play - as long as you’re playing.
Xbox isn’t a “console” or a “product” to them anymore, it’s an initiative,…
There is a difference between something inherently/by definition/by intent, racist, and things that someone might perceive an racism, or the intentional (or even non intentional) perpetuation of racism. Someone simply finding similarities to something stereotypically/commonly racist in nature and intent, or someone…
It makes perfect sense.
The art and imagery itself is not inherently racist. The style, character designs, color schemes, motion/animation, conveyed gameplay were not intended to be anything but visually interesting and compelling.
Intention is everything whether you choose to believe it or not, you and your immediate…
Paint it black and add a turban? Well, with that logic, everything ever is only 2-3 steps away from being Mr. Popo. What’s the threshold? Four transforms? Seven? Thirty-two? How many layers away does something need to be to finally be appropriate and non-offensive?
Well, makes sense - there’s four games on one cabinet. Those lower front panels that just list the games in a grid against a black background are pretty tacky and ruin the vibe of the rest of the cabinet.
You’re missing the point - the police are firing these projectiles despite the lack of imminent threat. They’re just getting bored, firing because they have itchy trigger fingers. They take joy in harming someone, perhaps because they like to cause harm, or even more likely because they don’t think of others as human…
That’s not particularly accurate, or, at least, not a thorough assessment of adulthood. In most communities and regions of the world, adulthood is an amalgamation of several states of being and expectations - when one is to begin their own legacy, their own family, when the work they accomplish in expected to…
I want to live in that moment.
Also, on a beach with clear water, tropical fruit, and fire-roasted fish just all the time.
*Sigh*
There’s also this upcoming Netflix-something (June 18th?):
I’d ask you to present your wallet, but there’s too much blood on the pavement today as it is - no need for me to indirectly conjure more.
... So, then, you do know where they got that 10 minute number.
From... all those things you said: knowing how to solve the puzzles/having a guide. They even said, “if you rush through it”. And then you agreed that if one rushes through it, it could take 10 minutes.
I... okay. Yeah. I think we’re on the same page here.…
Game doesn’t even look that good on Xbox One X. I never got the feeling that the game was coded well or was “stable”. I had more than my fair share of glitches, slow to load assets, strange pacing, targeting/AI confusion/responsiveness/awareness, etc. The whole thing is far from a fluid experience, even with a ton of…
I haven’t gone to bed “on time” for more than one or two nights in a row since I was old enough to watch late night talk shows. It helped that I had a TV in my room from a young age. Obviously I blame my parents for the poor environment and never teaching me the value and purpose of sleep - therefore my bad habits,…
When my wife decides on a “cheaper” of something, I tell her that I’ll cut whatever habit/sell something of mine if necessary to get the better thing. She’s caught on and only buys “the good stuff” now. Also, we’re blessed enough to come across very nice second-hand things from friends, etc. so we’ve tasted the nice…
I asked my wife what she thought was even Trump’s reason for wanting to be president - because I sure as heck couldn’t figure it out - and she quickly pointed out that the guy is, plain and simple, a narcissist. A defined, destructive, medical ailment, mind you. And it fits perfectly. Not in a “I’m looking to bring…
I’ve been off caffeine for a while now, dropping my one-sometimes-two energy drink a day habit. I think maybe I would be considered caffeine sensitive (the group that is called out on the labels of all these things)? I always felt really hot or cold, rarely comfortable, I’d talk the ears off everyone within listening…
