I believe the next console will be the Nintendo Swatch, using revolutionary cloth based technology.

Kinda crazy to think that my daughter who is now in 2nd grade has only known the Nintendo Switch as the “current Nintendo console” for her entire life.

S1 was good. S2 was fine, but also not really needed. I’m happy that it got a S2 cause I love Sam Richardson and want him to be in everything, but not sad it didn’t get a S3

I liked season one, but something about season 2 didn’t click with me. I think the novelty wore off. It’s a shame though.

... that plot point wasn’t scrapped. You literally launch the rocket at meteor.

And they’ll do absolutely fuck all with 90% of those franchises.

Considerablly smaller.
Still really quite big.

I believe it’s still notably bigger than the PS4 Pro. It does seem like this one will fit into standard AV shelf units though, which the first PS5 often doesn’t.

Now, any chance they can discover the old Sierra/Monolith game No One Lives Forever 2 actually belongs to them now? Probably not, but one can wish the game could be remastered or remade...

I really hope three months of Game Pass is not the best gaming deal of the year.

The best critique of South Park and one that’s come the closest to explaining why it rubs me the wrong way is that they always take the side of “not caring”. The end result is always that caring about anything is dumb and “both sides” are bad if either of them actually care. 

Their aboutface is more understandable when you realize that they were lying about supporting the military (it was about getting money into the pockets of their donors), anti-commie (that was, and still is, about denegrating anyone who might show concern for their fellow man) and small government (that was just an…

Ahem: “Is it car-related? Not at all. It is, however, plane-related, or at the very least plane-adjacent, and we write about plane stuff all the time. So why should this be any different?”

Fucking awful, awful man. Too bad the fall wasn’t more serious.

I’m just more baffled the vertical stand is a separate purchase now.

Looks like the existing PS5 Digital is 92mm x 260mm x 390mm, and the new one is 80mm x 216mm x 358mm. For a reduction of between about 9% to 17% in each dimension, or an overall reduction of 33% of space consumed.

This is very plausible. I worked at a company that got up to $400 a share in 2018, but took tumble after tumble and now sits at $13 a share (I stopped working there years ago, back when it was still in the mid 200s). But I watched as the leadership made some of the most asinine decisions I’d ever seen otherwise…

Corporations and their long held pipe dream of infinite growth. You can’t just make a ton of money, you need to make a ton of money on top of the ton you were making last fiscal year.

I think that may have been a part of it.  Though iirc wasn’t Unity also being investigated for securities/stock violations as well?

An obvious attempt to salvage their reputation.  But one that is meaningless unless they also shitcan the dozens of other execs that let him try this bullshit in the first place.  

It seems worth pointing out that the prices on at least several of these games (SQUENIX is only company I really have relevant data for) are actually higher than they’ve been in the last few days. Over the weekend, Tactics Ogre was $25, Valkyrie Elysium was $10, Crisis Core was $25, Octopath Traveler was $15, etc.  I…
