Yup, that just very firmly set the lifespan of Destiny 2 having any significant player base.

Umm... You sure? I think the Switch would like a word. And the Wii U. And the Wii. Latest doesn’t always mean most powerful.

Because people seem to have arbitrarily picked on Who as a show that deserves to be especially castigated for it, for some reason. Which is presumably one of the reasons why Moffat keeps calling it “political”

Gotta be October. She can’t attempt 5 years of government with the DUP effectively having a legislative veto. I just hope new voters don’t get disillusioned because they didn’t get a clear win first time, and older voters don’t get sick of turning up after all the bloody votes we’ve had in the last two years. Corbyn…

The conservatives have indeed gerrymandered the hell out of the country. But we don’t have a two party system. Different countries within the UK have various regional nationalist parties including Plaid Cymru (Wales), the Scottish Nationalist Party (Scotland) and the Democratic Unionist Party (Northern Ireland).…

Stayed up all night watching the results come in before finally dozing off at about 6am with ten seats still due in

Sorry, the industry will survive perfectly well even with piracy. If it made that much difference to bottom line in most cases then publishers wouldn’t still be developing games with 100 million dollar budgets. Nor would there be a thriving indie scene

Bloody hell, did they actually learn their lesson from that Space Marine trademark debacle? I’m amazed, but not unhappy to hear that. 

Knowing GW I’m surprised they haven’t already sued.

Yeah, considering you quoted the part of my post that mentioned MHXX and then refuted it with a load of arguments that would equally apply to MHXX, but would be even less true since pokemon is an even bigger system seller, I dunno why you feel that justified ending your reply with that patronising little “you’re…

Was Wipeout ever really *that* fast? As I recall, that was more the province of F-Zero and to a lesser extent Extreme G.

God, the moment where Damien tells Dick the two of them were the best Batman and Robin, right before he goes to his death. Hard to believe it was that same angry little asshole that turned up in the Batcave just a few years earlier. But let’s face it, EVERYBODY loves Dick Grayson. Even Superman seems to think he’s a…

I don’t think it was garbage. It’s certainly not Morrison’s strongest DC work but it has a lot to be said for it. It was actually pretty brave to try to recontextualise the BDSM aspects that were part of the character’s original creation and not approach it purely as titillation.

Yeah, they’ve definitely put some nicer textures/shaders on them for Go, but the models and animations are from the 3DS games.

Aren’t the models already scaled down? I was under the impression that Pokemon Go used HD character models directly from Game Freak? Sure, maybe the UI and environments will require some tidying up, but compared to all the new content they usually add in the .5 gen games, that seems fairly straightforward if the…

To be fair, Monster Hunter XX is going to have 3DS/Switch crossplay, and with Pokemon Bank it’s not gonna be hard to transfer your stuff over. I mean, the entire point of Bank was to make sure your collection was future proofed against that sort of thing.

Last of the Summer Wine was a very strange and quite wonderful show, for a time. It had this oddly philosophical bent, this group of old friends trying to figure out how to spend their time post retirement, usually coming to a conclusion somewhere along the lines of “It’s a funny old world”. It was gentle and often…

That’s just within the Ultimate universe, where I believe all mutants were basically engineered from Wolverine. In the mainline Marvel U, mutants have existed in some form or another for millenia. Apocalypse dates back to ancient Egypt, for example. Wolverine is somewhat older than a century (although currently dead,…

It’s certainly possible, and November has been a common window for Pokemon in the past. I just kinda get the feeling they’re going to want Mario to stand alone a bit. I don’t think they’re going to need to push the Switch very hard over the holidays. Certainly Pokemon is gonna shift more systems whenever it comes out,…
