I have a really, really good sense of direction but Heisenberg factory is an absolute maze even with the map.  If you have time, completing RE7 before going much further in the game will help you understand the story line a lot better.  RE7 is about 7-8 hours to beat so it’s very doable and I think will enhance your…

The BBC puts it best IMO.

To be fair, it’s not that much different in concept than the pyramid in Las Vegas. Granted people died but if SNL can bring on the iceberg the Titanic hit then I suppose anything goes at this point. 

Seems to me that creating a separate category of user for adult items with an opt in to view the search results and listings of adult items would be allowing purchase legally. If this is the first step while they do just that, fine. Otherwise it’s a ban on some types of adult content.

500,000 accounts probably equates to less than half of that number of actual cheaters.  I'm sure people created account after account after being banned for cheating.  

I am not pro or anti anybody. But I know enough of the long-term conflict/absolute mess in that area to know two things - no one has the moral high ground here and messing with Israel is like taking a stick to a hornets nest. They don’t play. To be fair I think they’ve little choice in that regard.

I am very much in Gen X.  Nice try to reduce an argument to basics though.

I blame several things for this trend. First, child centric paremeing. Not too long ago society was adult centric, now it’s child centric. Kids today (and for years) are mollycddked, generally speaking, and treated very differently than when I grew up.  This feeds an illusion that the person is special and can’t be…

I agree from the opposite perspective. I loved the fluid style of Yakuza but I do understand people like the new way too. You’re right, it’s a great compromise that allows more people to enjoy the Yakuza universe.

To each their own. You do have a choice. :)

The Mako drove like a brick on banana peels. Any changes they make are bound to be an improvement.  There is purity and there is punishment. 

I’ve loved Yakuza for years.  For a while we weren’t getting hardly any games at all...we barely got 3 over here.  Now I’m several games behind due to all this goodness.  I love that I have this problem. 

I’ll probably start and complete Those Who Remain since my games rental company sent that to me out of my “list” or continue Cyberpunk 2077. 

I find them annoying as well. There really should be a mechanism to turn them off. I do suppose there is a slight value in them if the playstation gets stolen or if a child downloads a mature game without parental permission.

I loved Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego.  There are a lot of people who got into geography in no small part due to this game.  All are worthy additions to the hall of fame. 

I think the main difference between movies and games is control. I’m not fond of horror movies, but horror games are okay because I’m in control of the character. I know I’m not truly - I’m playing how the developers want me to, to a large degree, but it’s just different in my brain somehow.

I’m glad you like it, but I am rather horrified by it. One of the most feared bounty hunter in the galaxy looking like a pretty rainbow. Poor Boba...

This is insane. What gets people - especially parents - is that it’s a free game. Then they nickel and dime (or rather $1 and $5) the player to death. I have never been a fan of micro-transactions and this shows how dangerous they are.

I’m not a huge fan of steam - GOG is my preferred PC game supplier - but I’ve mixed feelings about Epic too. I can’t help but to feel its two giants duking it out and we - the gamers - are the ones who will lose in the end.

It’s only a worthwhile expenditure if the squid randomly squirts ink on passerby.
