Give me Rainbow Six Vegas 3 already!

Yeah, except war doesn’t look that 99.99% of the time.

I too miss the old Rainbow Six games where the mission pre-planning was half the battle, getting shot once was a big deal, and moving at a running pace was a rollercoaster ride.

Tom Clancy was a conservative idiot who ghost wrote almost everything towards the end of his career. There's really nothing in poor taste about using his name. He was always more of a brand anyway

I wouldn’t rush to canonize a dude who, if he were alive today, would probably be a Q conspiracy cultist. He absolutely had feet planted in right wing, american exceptionalist fields that would grow into the shit we have today. And anyway he straight up sold his name for profit (go go capitalism) so he forfeited even…

Religion is seriously a poison on humanity.

I really don’t like it when companies use actual people’s names as a brand after they’ve died. it just seems extremely disrespectful. Ubisoft can put “Tom Clancy’s” in front of the title of literally any game they want and it just seems like it’s in really poor taste.

I was wondering what Tom Clancy woul’ve thought of this, and I learned that he basically sold his name to Ubisoft before he died.

Is that better? WORSE?

I’m glad you went out of your way to point that out. I’ll pile on by adding that it’s also an anagram!

Maybe someone can explain something to me, because it seems super strange to me.

Since the N64 back in ‘96, analogue sticks have been a standard feature in every console controller. 25 years of sticks, and drift is only just now really an issue...how is that possible?

I’ve repaired a fair number of Xbox and PS controller…

This crazy stuff even pre-dates the internet crazy days. It seems to be a natural part of any military gamer’s psyche.

...okay, this is legitimately goddamn funny. And it just goes to show how dangerous discussion forums bullshit can be; some people will go to any lengths to win an argument on the internet. 😂

Not related, but important for an overall view of their culture, Yves Guillomot’s brother runs a mobile studio under Ubi, and they have a game called Instant Warfare where there’s a hero hacker named Q that was released right in the height of... all that.

I used to think that the politics in their games were…

you’ve never cleaned your house with a knife??

Some how I missed that there will be an SD slot. Hmmm.. I was going for the 512 version but I might rethink that and get the 256 and buy a 1tb card when I need to upgrade. I wonder if it will support ssd usb?

If I recall, Hello Games also did themselves the favor of shutting the fuck up for a year or so until they cam back with their bigger content patches.

This is a dumb take.

Are we not allowed to say a game was shipped broken because it might have negative consequences? 

Corporate didn’t really get “fucked”, as they turned the game into a profit in the first week if I remember right. They get to keep making money now, as sales continue, despite the game being *not good* (and it really, truly is just the most average game at the end of the day).
