The headline for the article, in addition to any and every other article about modders having their work used without their permission (such as the linked article about the person who claimed their render of Mario was being used by Nintendo), is why I assumed such was the case here.

I never upgraded from a base PS4 to a pro, and 60fps sounded like it would be awesome for Shadow of the Colossus, so I’m holding out until I eventually get a PS5. Lord, beer me strength.

Yeah, I mostly just want one as a souped-up PS4 for now. I’ve got a base PS4 with a disc drive that’s declined over the years from occasionally spitting out discs to near-incessant beeping any time it’s powered on because it’s trying to eject. Between that and not wanting to play non-enhanced versions of later…

Yeah, the whole premise here being “They’re making an animated show - you know, like The Flintstones or Scooby-Doo. Except...get this...it’s for grown-ups! Isn’t that just a scream?” is weird. It seems like something a TV reviewer would write after emerging from a bomb shelter they entered during the Cold War.

Yeah, several more years of silently being abused sounds way healthier than making a big deal about it out loud.

How long did this last? 16 hours? I don’t think most people will even remember after a little while (until the next time they mess with prices), let alone hold a serious grudge over it. For anyone who wasn’t paying attention to gaming news during this one specific day, it’s not even a thing.

They were originally announcing them every day on Twitter, and tagging the streamer in question. But since there’s a depressingly significant chunk of people who think of themselves as warriors on the front line of the battle between Twitch and freedom, those posts just became signposts pointing them towards who to…

Yeah, they recycle posts for months here.

Well, I can’t think of a single reason to doubt anything this guy promises.

You posted yesterday a streamer obliterated a record (dude posted a 4% increase over),

While I think there are plenty of reasons to not use real faces as Twitch emotes, I disagree with your first point about them being too difficult to understand or requiring some knowledge of the person in the emote. The LUL emote is a face that’s laughing, Pogchamp was a face that’s excited, and they were used to…

I’m not especially proud of this, but despite it seeming fun every time I played it, I had a hard time sticking with KoF XIV on account of it looking like butt. Even with how much it improved between the trailer and release, the whole game was buried under so much blandness that I could never get excited to play.

Very possible! That’s definitely been the case for a lot of people. I think it’s also possible that this is something like a very extreme mid-life crisis. Most of these conspiracy theory groups operate like cults, in terms of targeting and appealing to isolated people who are down on their luck, and offering them an…

He is unquestionably a giant piece of shit now, but before that (or when he was better at hiding it, I don’t know), he made a lot of good fighting game videos, mostly under the name Cross Counter TV. He also played in some tournaments, but wasn’t very relevant in that context by the time Street Fighter IV came around.…

Sadly, we just have no way of knowing when

This looks great! That sort of opt-in difficulty is what’s made N++ one of my all-time favorites. They used gold coins as the optional path - get to the end, or get to the end after getting all the gold to get a shiny gold badge on the level select screen. Along with some other optional goals, like setting off all the…

Hey, just wanted to say thanks very much for this comment. Reading it added a lot to my day, so I’m glad that you didn’t do what a lot of other people would do and just not care, quietly, to yourself. Please keep us posted on the other things you don’t care about.

For what it’s worth, I’m a pirate and I’d be happy to see all these shitty loader tools vanish. Best case scenario, they don’t work all that well and become outdated. Worst (and also common) case, they’re running some modified, malicious version of the custom firmware the community has made (and is free), which could…

My personal experience was that I ended up skipping a lot of the console games I would have bought over the last few years, because I didn’t really want to play the lesser version of them on a vanilla PS4, but didn’t care enough to shell out for a PS4 Pro, either. It just would have been difficult for me to enjoy…

Possibly for some employee benefits that extend to family members.
