If you’re trying to get out of paying for your kid’s college tuition, sure.

A Mustang GT convertible is a great choice if it’s a manual

There are probably thousands of people who answer SOS calls.   It’s just a way to get into a game.  If those people are any good they also go for the objectives.  No shade on this guy but he’s hardly unique.  There are 342,000 Helldivers in fighting on the planet Erata Prime as I type this.  I’m going to take a guess…

As if getting to level 50 is a big accomplishment in this game? It doesn’t make you an effective ‘diver, trust me.

A 4+ years old first generation luxury EV lost 50% of their valuation from new?

The best satire doesn’t have to be subtle, it has to be earnest. If you think that “the Irish should eat their babies if they’re so hungry” is subtle, then you might want to either recalibrate your scale for subtlety or seriously reevaluate your view on the Irish.

Counterpoint: For something that was pitched as “Skyrim in Space” you would expect it to kinda replace Skyrim.

In a vacuum, no it should not.

Gonna have to sort of disagree. While I think in general people are expecting every game to be a live service which is a disservice (Uh uh) to those games, I do think player count relative to comparable games tell us things.

It has cross-play so you can still buy the PC version and play with your PS5 friends.

“Voluntary recall” almost always means that NHTSA went to the vendor and said “There’s a problem, and you don’t seem to be fixing it. It sure would be a shame if the government had to issue a recall instead of you doing it yourself. Sure would be a shame.” The UI on the right is FAR superior.

Fried chicken and watermelon are very well-known racist stereotypes. Like...some of the most well-known negative stereotypes about African Americans dating back to the Civil War. You not being aware of it doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be moderated. Some imagery could be questionable, but the specific examples you’ve cited…

No, sorry but BG3 deserves the number 1 spot. I get there's a portion of the gaming community not used to the style of gameplay. I get that it swept most gaming awards this year so there's suddenly this feeling of it being a gaming Goliath and anything else up against it is like David. But the sheer effort, attention…

Play better games 🤷‍♂️

Another year of me being salty that the new Zelda is ranking so high despite being in many ways (narratively, world-design, dungeons) weaker than it’s predecessor - which I was also salty about the height of its placement the year it came out.

Well-meaning but super privileged, juvenile stuff. 

Ugh. I struggled reading this. I think the author is a talented writer, and I know she wrote with the best intentions.

But there’s a few problems, here.

First is the scope. The article paints this as a video game problem. But you could write the same article about any fictional media that is created to appeal to an…

This article argues that the idea that making a terrorist character Saudi in the early 2000s was racist.

One of the interviewees would “like to challenge anyone reading this to count the number of times they pressed a button to take the life of an Arab character, and compare it to the number of times a game invited you to sit down and eat with one instead. That ratio should scare you.”

But if you want to hurt somebody else in the game, assuming it’s not a Nazi, or a Russian, or a South American, you need a justification. You can’t shoot an American. That is bad.
