Welp, looks like I’m never buying another WB again (not that I have recently, since they’ve sucked). GaaS is a cancer.

Zelda movie? Hmmm...

The NFT plague in gaming has calmed down a lot with the general collapse of NFTs, but there are still holdouts like those fuckers at Square Enix who still want to cram them into as many video games as possible.

I use the share button a lot, but not to post to Elmo’s Hindenburg. Good on Sony for ditching that trashheap, though I’m sure it’s because Elmo wanted to charge them One Beeeeelyon Dollars (pinky finger to mouth) to keep doing it.

I totally agree with him. I loved Gears 1-3, but at this point can not give a single fuck about the series or keep track of all the plot convolutions (I have played 4 and 5, on sale).

So what exactly is wrong with me ‘cheating’ on a single player game because you guys effed up the game design? Or because I want Leon dressed like Batman?

It’s the common thing on the list most likely to be mediocre, though. An egg is an egg (you have to work to mess it up). Pickled jalapenos are pickled jalapenos. Ketchup is... okay, there are higher quality ketchups, but even the Heinz works fine on a burger. Cheddar - yeah, there are different types (I like the…

The great thing about Skyrim and Fallout 4 is that every single square mile is filled with so many things to find outside of any quest lines... little caves with the remnants of drama, pipes that take you somewhere special, oho a little puzzle treasure vault! And every single one of those things is there for a reason,…

I recently got a hybrid Camry - EVs were completely off the table for two reasons. I have absolutely loved my friend’s Chevy Bolt, it’s a lot of fun and he loves it...

This could be quite fun if they just stick with classic Looney Tunes (or even Tiny Toons) goofiness without trying to make it a modern movie plot like Disney or Pixar where The Plot and The Lesson are paramount. Yes, technically there will be a plot, but with Looney Tunes I’m there for the dialogue and the gags.

Insomniac’s PS4 game and Miles Morales were so good that I think anyone who played them wanted this game, and I even broke my ‘no pre-orders’ rule to pre-order it and have it loaded and ready to go at 9 PM PST Oct 19.

‘GameMill’, how appropriate.

I wanted to ask ‘And how did sales look once everyone realized it was 1000 miles wide and a thousandth of an inch thick and got bored?’ but you already covered that halfway through, bravo!

Hey now, this is a real slippery slope. If you remove all the repetititve, tedious, and uninteresting bits from Starfield there will be hardly anything left.

That’s nice, but does anyone even care?  Yes, there is always That One Guy who cares, but the player numbers for this are beyond terrible. This is not a game you can CP2077 because so few people cared about it in the first place, then the landing was just so disastrous, and there is just nothing there to care about at…

Well, it’s probably more fun than Starfield in its current state?

The practical review:

So, as an update from the San Francisco police.... the death threats came from...

Unity reporting that it had been installed would be entirely separate from the ‘game DRM’. This would be new (mis)functionality added before Jan 2024, but it would just be Unity dlls pinging back to Unity, entirely separate from whether you use Denuvo or whatever.

The extra ‘NICE’ thing about this is that now game installs are weaponized. You hate that a dev made a change in the game you don’t like? People used to review bomb it. Now just set up a script to install then uninstall the game all day long, and share that script with your equally frothing buddies.
