Most of us probably hear about genetics from two main sources, genre stuff - movies, books, TV shows etc - and the news. Pop culture fiction and news media have one big thing in common: the disaster narrative. Stories wrap up pretty quickly if someone doesn’t breed new dinosaurs or make a new friend from body parts,…

My first thought is, TAKE ALL MY MONEY.

Very, very few of these scientists are into genetic engineering to create a master race, or even to create an army of giant slugs. If you were a couple who knew that because of genetics any child you produced would probably be affected by something horrible (Huntington’s, cri-du-chat, etc.) wouldn’t you want to get…

As a biomedical scientist myself, I’m always a bit annoyed at the standard 1950s B-movie trope of “Oh, we scientists never thought of the downside of creating giant slugs!” that still gets used in movies today with Goldblum’s character, for example. Seriously, scientists think about the dangers of their research all…

That’s really cool! Being able to draw chunks like that is great for making new hair styles. I think this is pushing the definition of the word “drawing”, though.

It’s a big deal because the lack of cross-play is an oddly anti-consumer stance from a company that was so pro-consumer at the beginning of this console generation. They’re not willing to play nice for the sake of their customers, and their customers are being negatively impacted by their stubbornness. One example is…

I never said there was any account locking in Rocket League. Protip: if you have to lie, your opinion is probably not well founded. That goes double for the rest of your post.

RL could easily have had cross play, and the only one to be against it was Sony. Fact. Anything beyond that is irrelevant.
The same issue came…

The company who helped Bethesda make FOS is also making the Westworld game with WB. The proof they stole code is that, while working with Bethesda there was a bug that was fixed in FOS that showed right back up in the Westworld game. So Bethesda pointed at that bug and went “Wow, you guys reused code that we made…

Sony fans will cape for them for a variety of reasons with no sense of objectivity. It's the norm from them.

“Trying to resolve it”

“You know exactly what you’re getting, you have disclosure on the assets that you buy. It’s not gambling; we provide the pack odds so you know what might pop up in a pack”

Literally none of this is true. Sony is not responding as soon as the issue got attention, it was first brought up when rocket league went to xbox and the devs said cross play was being held back by sony.

“It’s not gambling; we provide the pack odds so you know what might pop up in a pack...” 

“We’re hearing it. We’re looking at a lot of the possibilities. You can imagine that the circumstances around that affect a lot more than just one game. I’m confident we’ll get to a solution which will be understood and accepted by our gaming community, while at the same time supporting our business.”

Did you just assume my gender? Oh my....

John Williams wrote the score for both Star Wars and Harry Potter, and yet they dont sound the same. I guess that surprises you, as it was the same creator, albeit writing for two different employers?

“Simple: change the gravitational constant of the universe.” 😄

Hey now, don’t sully the good name of the Sega Nomad.  That thing was awesome.

I think a lot of folks judging here aren’t looking at the younger generations that are coming up. Many of which don’t invest into desktops or consoles like older gen-x/y’ers did/do.

Both games have the same bugs is pretty damning evidence that the code was copied. However, if the same company worked on both games... this is different from WB stealing intellectual property. The beef will have to be taken up with Behaviour.
