Or like how the Nintendo 3DS and the “New” Nintendo 3DS are actually different enough that some games only work on the latter. It’s a mess and it doesn’t make any sense. In Nintendo’s case, it’s a Japanese company not realizing that some concepts don’t translate well to the Western market. It’s dumb, but Microsoft has…

I’d guess the anonymity was really for the sake of appearances. Especially in the immediate aftermath of the scandal, I imagine players were going to be suspicious of anyone known to be an employee. Being anonymous doesn’t really solve that problem, but it at least spares the developers from having to be the focus of…

It’s only been a few days since these animal transformations have been added into the game, so the community is still figuring out what they can do with them. Maybe in a few days or weeks, we will see stunt videos featuring cats and Yetis?

I’m not super familiar with how minus worlds worked in old NES games. But reading arbitrary memory locations would’ve been probably fine since all memory accesses were to physical addresses and there was only one process (the game itself) running. If a bug caused the program to step into unused memory, I could see you…

Spaces outside the playable area aren’t really unused or wasteful. They’re there for show, so that the playable area is immersive and feels like part of a larger world.

No, the original game was a 360 exclusive.

I read about the CGI mustache removal before I saw the movie, and honestly I could not see it in any of the scenes even though I was looking. I can’t tell in this still, even.

How did he grow a beard while he was dead?

Bingo. Xbox and Playstation games are both sold on Blu-ray now, which allows up to ~90GB, and day one patches are usually 20+GB.

This article makes the situation and Facebook’s response sound a lot more ridiculous than it actually is. Read the linked Herald article and look at the photos.

Going by Reddit posts, Taco Bell runs pretty much all of its test items through Columbus. It does other cities too, but Columbus is the constant.

Once my brother and I found The Wolf Man, things got hectic fast. He sent some of his trusted wolves at us and soon we were surrounded. Using shotguns we fought them off. I tackled the target and tried to tie him up, which is hard to do when you are being attacked by wolves. My brother covered me, mostly, and…

Nailed it. MySQL’s TIMESTAMP data type is a 32-bit Unix timestamp. I don’t know any other SQL flavors but I imagine they have analogues.

But which version of The Shining and Salem’s Lot? Any why not the 2002 version of Carrie?

I’ve never purchased a supercar in GTA Online. They all basically look the same (a look which I’m not a fan of), they’re uber-expensive, and they don’t give you a real advantage in most contexts.

This article reminded me that Discord used to give our free games a la the Epic Store and Twitch Prime. I think I claimed all of them, but I’ve never installed Discord so I never played any. Were any of them good?

The article doesn’t mention platforms at all, so just thought I’d drop this here: it’s on everything. Switch, Playstation 4, Xbox One, and Steam.

What game is the “Verger” part in reference to?

Are you talking about Hershey’s chocolate bars or about the unsweetened baking chocolate? I can understand feeling that way about the former, but the powder is great.
