I felt like it was a reference to “All of these moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.”

As an Atheist, gotta say a big ol’ series about Jesus sounds long-shot potentially fantastic. Epic period pieces are fun, by most accounts Jesus sounds like a really cool dude and interesting character, and there’s plenty of dramatic stories to draw on. I mean, if he’s just a sorta exceptional heart-of-gold type guy…

Thoughts on Aerith surviving. Her death is one of the most iconic moments in gaming. It was sad and tragic, but the unexpectedness of it was the real killer. They could make it cinematic and horribly beautiful and super maudlin, but if they ever wanted to recapture the feeling from the 90s again, to really bring back…

Gotta say that this does not feel “compelling.” Also, I worry a bit that this type of a reach will introduce debate and disagreement to what may have just been some attempts to show allyship and celebration in the movie with the various motifs. Without making any value judgement at all about *being* trans, we find…

That’s wonderful!  I hope he spends plenty of time exploring, being in nature, and playing music.  

I’ve had a few seizures.  Didn’t pee.

There’s a glut of shiny-new indie game companies that attempted to catch the crypto wave. Now their investor money is drying up, they’ve painfully realized most gamers loathe crypto-based games, and they can’t let go of that sweet sweet high they got from all the attention they got during the boom. Solution? We’re…

Zuckerberg has a notably different take on “taking responsibility” than, say, Iwata-san did.

 What was that “Citizens for Sanity” trash ad at the beginning?  Do your court advertisers appealing to window-lickers?  Get that garbage out of here.

Square Enix is starting to feel like Ferrari’s F1 team. They had some past glory days that were absolutely legendary and gained lifelong fans for it, but the brass seems to be making strategic blunders now and shooting themselves in the foot far too often. They absolutely have amazing talent on hand, and enviable…

As much as we all enjoy the schadenfreude, it does feel like Blizzard has sorta stiffed him here.  Sure, he’s contributing to the death of gaming as we all know and love it, and is a real doofus with his money, but a much better outcome would be something like giving other players the option to opt-out of playing…

Tests have shown (I saw some rando test on youtube a couple years ago, but LTT also does a good one) that so long as the card works and its cooling hardware was kept clean/functional, there is no performance loss. Granted, I’m all for denying crypto miners a good resale market.

1. I wonder if this tool may have been (this is perhaps a best-case scenario) an attempt by somebody to work with people who genuinely can’t understand this stuff.. Like, “we tried for 16 aggregate hours to talk to Bob and get him to understand what diversity is, and how the white dude hero with the blue shirt and white…

Bull’seye.  This is the answer.

When people shilling/promoting crypto say things like “wouldn’t it be cool if I could sell this thing??” what you should be hearing (and they are trying hard to avoid addressing) is: “wouldn’t it be cool if there were people out there who actually wanted to buy this thing??” The answer is almost always no, but if they…

I feel like you’re pretty on-target here. Players who aren’t familiar with GT likely expect it to be like other racing games where you are speeding around in hypercars the whole time. GT has always been about, like real amateur racing, making your way up in scrappy little low-powered used cars and very slowly…

I love how every time a crypto-bro tries to argue in favor of crypto or NFTs, they just show you exactly how they got GOT. Everything they say just lays out whatever weak argument they themselves fell for. You are broadcasting to us all that somebody exploited your insecurities about not understanding tech, and now…

Even putting env. impacts aside, wealth inequality and the erosion of the middle-class is a growing problem. Crypto (and derivatives like NFTs) DOES NOT solve this, but threatens to make it worse. Horrifying lack of regulation, rampant scams, commodification of everything in our lives, smart contracts allowing…

Whoa whoa whoa, people. Look at the signs.. The gatekeeping, the “wouldn’t *survive* [a F’ing videogame chat lobby]”, referring to “true” gamers. Clearly this guy puts so much stock into this stuff because he has no other sources of validation/approval/personal value in his life. He needs our pity and our help, not…

I gotta say I throw my hat into this ring as well. I have PS4 Pro, XB1 (poor thing gets almost no love), a beastly PC, and a Switch.. I prefer Switch for almost everything, minus a few AAA titles I want to see in full glory on PC or racing/VR games.
I’m trying to figure out the logic behind EA’s statement, though. I…
