In my opinion, you are incorrect. Tom Clancy was strongly against Iraq War II, and would have hated Trump. You may not agree with his politics, but the man was principled and intelligent. He would not have bought into Q BS, or Trump’s nonsense.

Check his grave, the dude is probably spinning wildly in it.

Even if you buy into that concept, you don’t need a specific bit of entertainment to live. No one’s dying because they specifically can’t buy an XSX or PS5. I say that as someone who’d very much like to buy a PS5 but can’t find one for MSRP.

The number of Sony fanboys in denial about the medium-term effects of Microsoft buying Zeni is amazing. You better believe they’re not going to be supporting Sony’s consoles by releasing new AAAs on there, much like Sony would have to be stupid to put Horizon 2 on the XSX - yet you never seem to hear much complaining…

Yeah, I’m with you. No idea what happened here except maybe they started with the PC version this time and did a terrible job optimizing for the Switch.

I am still completely scarred from my encounter with the PC version and have zero desire to play it ever again. I guess I got my money’s worth, but DAMN, that’s a PTSD-inducer.

People who thought Microsoft was going to buy Bethesda and then be like “lol, we’re going to release all our most awaited exclusives on all platforms!” were seriously deluded. Microsoft could have gotten THAT a lot cheaper.

Yeah, there’s clearly a lot of Sony fanboys who didn’t realize what it was going to feel like with the shoe on the other foot, and I say that as someone who owns every Sony system since the PS2 (except for the PS5, which I would buy if I could at MSRP). I know I personally would have bought Returnal if it had been…

KeyMod vs MLOK was decided when NSWC Crane put out that slide deck with the results of their testing. KeyMod got crushed, and now even Vltor has abandoned it.

I think the base models come with it according to the web page. Guess we’ll see what the reviews say.

That would definitely be a killer feature for me.

No kidding. I’ve been casually looking for something to replace our Mazda5 if it dies. I was assuming it’d be another minivan or a crossover, but a $20k pickup with a very attractive base package is one heck of a contender. Yeah, there’s no third row seating, but we hardly used that anyways in the first place. Makes…

Totally blown away that so many people here think PET CARE COSTS need to be socialized. People need to grow up and accept that it can and should be possible to get yourself into situations which are unaffordably expensive, and that said situations are just YOUR problem, not everyone else’s, even if human healthcare…

3d audio is weird in that it has been around forever, yet gets touted as a great innovation every few years. I was using A3D and EAX back in like... 1998 or something.

One, it’s a great show, and two, I had no idea this guy was a real life figure. Very cool.

I did not know this! Thank you. My internal drive is running out of space faster than I’d prefer, so something has gotta give...

My experience with HDMI-CEC is that it works alright if you get lucky with your device toolchain and there’s not too much stuff on it. My bedroom TV with a FireTV hooked to it does more or less OK. However, I’ve got a fairly complex home theater setup (like... six HDMI devices, a component device or two, an AV…

I don’t know if you heard this, but the Harmony remotes are going away because the market is full of idiots who think HDMI-CEC works reliably. :P (I am not implying you are one of them; more like “you are right”.)

This is true, but it’s also because running off external storage nukes load times. Dumb as the storage expansion cards are, it IS nice to be able to add to the internal storage on the XSX.

This is an utterly fantastic idea.
