I find I go through phases - sometimes I’ll binge certain games, other times I won’t feel like gaming for weeks on end and I’ll be reading a load of comics (topical!) or novels instead. I don’t think it’s strange that you don’t feel like spending all your time on one hobby :P

Doreen’s expression still cracks me up

Those Humble Bundles comprise pretty much all my digital comics. The manga bundles with BLAME! and Alita were fantastic.

The Exorcist over Empire Strikes Back? You ok man?

Oh shit, I never picked up on that.

A recent 7 Days to Die update broke all my old maps, so I started a new one. The change of scenery was nice (fuck the desert); but unlike most of the survival games I’ve played, the early game is kind of a drag. Unless you get lucky with loot, it’s damn-near impossible to gear up and fortify a base before the first…

Missed opportunity for a Naughty Dog joke

I wish they’d do a comic or anime or something so I could check out the story people keep talking up, without having to get into an MMO.

ikr?
I’ve been settling for hybrid drives, but they mostly just speed up boot-times. Which doesn’t mean much when most of my reboots are for updates :P

Yeah, especially given it wouldn’t be gross iOS revenue they’d be weighing up, but the net after the dev/QA costs of supporting an extra platform.

It feels more like posturing than reasoning - if not flat out marketing.

Every now and again I read a take so strange I don't know how to respond. This is one of those takes.

I’m still waiting for terabyte SSDs to become cheap and common. atm it feels like the standard size is 256GB.

Funny you should say...

“Gods and Monsters", for one.

yeah I know, I meant to just come in with a glib remark but it turned into genre trivia :P

tbf, vampires and zombies are basically the same thing. Night of the Living Dead was inspired by vampire novel I Am Legend; while vampire literature is a sexed up take on the Revenant myth.

They seem to be treating it more as an event, than as a release.

It’s an odd exclusion; but the limited-time release is weirder still.
