Capitalism needs to end yesterday. We’re so cooked

Rumors say there is a proper “next gen” version coming so probably wouldn’t hurt to wait a bit. Games not going anywhere :)

I need to. Loved her on Kinda Funny. Big loss for them when she left. Sorely lacking women voices on there

- Comment on Splitgate 2 Director Refuses to Apologize for ‘Make FPS Great Again Hat’, Then Apologizes Anyway - IGN 3 weeks ago:
And I am also free to think the joke is in bad taste and to refuse support for a game that makes jokes that make light of the shit situation I’m in :)
- Comment on Splitgate 2 Director Refuses to Apologize for ‘Make FPS Great Again Hat’, Then Apologizes Anyway - IGN 3 weeks ago:
I mean yeah but really no. The political implications are too big to ignore here. Especially given the event being in LA with all the shit going on. Also like as a particularly targeted person in this fascist administration, it really doesn’t feel great for people to use fascist iconography to make a stupid joke!
Also like splitgate 2? Really? The game that during this announcement announced a battle royale mode? The most tired shooter mode since hero shooters? And the one that had $145 microtransactions on launch? This is the savior of fps gaming?
Nah

I very much enjoy the threads! If for no other reason than having a space to discuss a game that recently came out

- Comment on Mario Kart World | Review Thread 3 weeks ago:
Yeah for essentially $50 with the bundle it’s not bad
- Comment on Mario Kart World | Review Thread 3 weeks ago:
Well I can already predict this thread will be full of comments on the price so I’ll go ahead and give actual impressions on the game.
It’s really good! The free roam mode is maybe a bit more bare bones than I thought it would be but it’s still great fun driving around and doing challenges. Some of the challenges are legitimately difficult and some of the special ones have taken me ages to complete. The driving feels great, the new movement mechanics are really fun. Knockout tour is absolutely the star here and a great new mode. The AI is harder this time around which makes racing against them much more fun in my opinion.
Overall I’ve been having an amazing time. I do think $80 is steep. But that aside, the game is outstanding
- Comment on Resident Evil fans: Can I skip RE5 to play Revelations 2? 3 weeks ago:
I may be misremembering but infinite ammo is like a setting you unlock for guns that you buy with points or something of the sort. I think they are toggle-able on and off

- Comment on Elden Ring Nightreign Review Thread 5 weeks ago:
Yep it’s really whack. Sucks too because I have 2 distinct squads. A crew from college and a crew from high school. One on PlayStation and one on PC… Like I could buy it on both I suppose but that just sucks lol
- Comment on Elden Ring Nightreign Review Thread 5 weeks ago:
Yeah I’m lucky enough that I have a squad that’s all very into elden ring on the same system to play with. But if you don’t have that it sounds like a pretty miserable time. Really hope they add cross play and balance single player more
