That’s just a 3.6GHz CPU that can burst very briefly to 5GHZ. I’m not ready to call that a 5GHz processor.

Google were also complete fucking pricks about trying to badger, force, and/or trick you into using G+ and annoyed the shit out of large percentage of their potential audience. At that point G+ was actually more annoying than Facebook.

Well, this could have been interesting right up to the point of ‘loaded with pirated games’.  So this isn’t on pure jailbreaking.

When I started playing the game I was pretty much ‘Yep, it’s Origins with a Greek skin.’ But then once you get in a while it’s pretty obvious that while they’ve used Origins as the foundation, and there’s a lot that’s familiar, now there’s a whole bunch of extra stuff on top of that to make it less tedious than…

Yes, all the processing (except video decompression) is done on their end, and there are plenty of them. OnLive (the original, now gone). PS Now. XBox Game Streaming. NVidia GRID. And dozens more you’ve never heard of with terrible names like GLOUD.

It’s really easy to piss bystanders off in Odyssey,especially if you’re using your heavy kick skill. Accidentally kick the bad guy into a chicken? Chicken’s now pissed off at you.

“From a technical point-of-view, going free-to-play has been a nightmare. From a store point-of-view it’s a nightmare as well.” MercurySteam owner Enric Alvarez discusses the Metroid: Samus Returns developer’s difficult move into free-to-play with Raiders of the Broken Planet and Spacelords.

Very useful built in shortcut on the FaceId phones that was added recently - hold the power button and volume button this your phone briefly buzzes. Your phone now requires the passcode to open. And you can do this easily and discretely in your pocket whenever you see a DHS goon or cop.

Ah, what could have been without that f@#$ing Sixaxis motion control.  There was obviously a really good dragon riding game in there under the barge controls.

Oh please. So after you wah wah wahed that I was giving opinions without explicitly saying they weren’t facts (as if that needed to be said), you suddenly pull an ‘objectively’ out of your ass? I was with you up to there. It’s always you guys who complain about ‘WELL THAT’S JUST YOUR OPINION’ who haul out the ‘BUT MY…

Yeah, they wanted to have the analog controls in there originally but Sony told them NO.

It’s opinion, as is everything about this entire type of discussion on a gaming board. Unless someone’s discussing hard numbers it should just be taken as a given that there are no objective facts involved, just points of view.

No problem, I understand you’re going aaaarrrrgh at the game, not me.  And I’m certainly not defending it, I’m saying it was flawed from the ground up.

Sorry, derp, that should be Lair, not Prey

IMO you have it backwards there - the game was so bland and repetitive because it was designed for motion control. They could certainly have done something interesting with that setup. It’s just hamstrung by the terrible Wiimote, built on a foundation of quicksand.

Yes, but that was a design decision they made - not to design for useful controls at all. They could have done so, but didn’t. I know, that would have ‘compromised’ the motion control design, but no big loss since the motion control is terrible.  Prey being the other obvious example.

You’re talking EA vs Konami here.  Shitheels vs Assholes.  If you’re buying based on that, don’t buy either.

The ‘It’s Not Even A Sequel’ where the whole damn thing is a complete retread of the first game without enough new to even qualify as being a sequel. Obvious one here is Crackdown 2, which even had almost the exact same map. AC: Revelations was also getting dangerously close to this except at least you got Ezio plot.

I think this is the fault of whoever did the Jubilation emote. Other female characters do this too, it’s just not so obvious as with this flimsy top.  Like here you really have to be watching for it:

They may be selling this thing at a bit of a loss (or right at cost). It’s a Facebook only device that only runs games written for it, so they may be willing to take a hardware loss to lure you into the hellmouth.
