Usually at least a couple times a month. I saw Captain Marvel last week.

Huh. I’ve never seen this anywhere. I had never even heard of it.

Have they banned any other games for being too “addictive”? What makes this one the one to ban specifically?

Yeah, if I somehow saw the message, I’d be a bit confused, then I’d look it up and have a laugh about it. Heck, it might improve my opinion of the company.

“If it’s implemented on an old name, users can revert to that, and if it’s detected on a fresh name, they’re asked to change it to something that doesn’t suck.”

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…
