If you read the article, it’s free, and it sounds like something that will probably only be in print at certain events. Assuming it’s publicly available at all, it’ll probably just be on their site.

How do you know most people aren’t going there for a specific thing? And I have probably a couple hundred things on my list. If it takes me a while to decide on something, it’s because there’s so much stuff that I’m interested in, not because there’s nothing good.

I’d never do it to win, but using a cheat engine (or a cheat mod or something for a more recent equivalent) can be fun for messing around if you’ve already beaten a game.

Exclusivity isn’t platform-limited. It can be limited by any kind of factor. If the Epic Games store is the only store selling a digital product, then they have complete control over the price and how that product can be used. That’s obviously exclusivity by any reasonable definition. (That being said, the same thing…

Technically the MCU could produce a Hulk movie whenever they wanted. They’d just have to offer Universal first-look rights in regard to distributing it.

Did the person who supposedly went to Infinity War a hundred times actually give any proof?

Nah, the best April Fool’s joke this year has been Gemusetto Machu Picchu.

Will the patches themselves even be available, though? They might count as “online content” since you have to download them...

I guess I should have been clearer. I could have sworn that I’d seen things with their games on them before the Genesis Flashback thing (that didn’t come out until after the NES Classic), but I could be remembering incorrectly.

Didn’t Sega already have things like this before Nintendo ever did? I’ve definitely seen consoles with built-in games that included some of the Sonic games at stores before.

I was hoping someone would have posted this. :)

If that paragraph means what you seem to be implying it does, then the Article would be completely pointless. It would do absolutely nothing. And I highly doubt that’s the case.

Er...elaborate?

The process would probably take over 15 minutes, but I could concede that it would be possible to set up a compulsory licensing system along the lines of the one for music covers. Make a law that sets some small specified fee that, if paid, means the company has to allow you to stream a game and can’t do anything…

“This forces larger sites to actually develop better procedures.”

Sure, it theoretically protects parody works and so on, but that’s irrelevant when any method used to block actual infringing uses will inevitably pick up things like parody works, too. And there’s zero reason why they would replace the algorithms with human moderators. The amount of content is way too high for that…

Making online businesses responsible for their users isn’t even remotely in the same ballpark as any similar law applying to physical businesses. The level of user interactivity and the sheer number of users are exponentially higher.

Yeah, even the author of this article doesn’t seem to have gotten the memo considering they’re still linking to the original story saying he was involved (which was never updated with the correction), and then saying nothing but “maybe Michael Bay’s involvement has been overstated” (and only because Platinum Dunes’s…

He has nothing to do with this movie. It was a weird rumor that was never true but took a long time to get debunked for some reason.

“Also, there’s no sign of Platinum Dunes in this trailer, so maybe Michael Bay’s involvement has been overstated.”
