- Comment on Xbox chief Phil Spencer is leaving Microsoft 3 days ago:
I wonder if the incoherent Xbox names hurt them too. I’m not into Xbox, but I couldn’t tell you what is the latest model, or which model follows which. This is a barrier for entry to the ecosystem.
- Comment on NieR: Automata Will Continue, Finally Confirms Square Enix as the Game Breaks 10M Units Sold 4 days ago:
In actually playing it at the moment, think I’m about half way through. It’s great, I’m really enjoying it. I’m not sure what they mean here though, another dlc?
- Comment on BREAKING: PlayStation is shutting down Bluepoint Games (Demon's Souls/Shadow of the Colossus remakes) 5 days ago:
I guess the problem is that it would cost a lot to keep paying everyone for however many years it takes until they have a product.
- Comment on Mewgenics becomes the most-played roguelite ever on Steam 6 days ago:
WTF?! Why?
- Comment on Why are we not getting stress relief games where we take our stresses out on normal people? 6 days ago:
Warning : tasteless comment right here.
I found that one of the bars you go to in cyberpunk on a side mission, the police won’t enter no matter how wanted you are. It’s crowded, too. And it feels pretty therapeutic to do a mass shooting in there. Start with a grenade onto the dancefloor then pick people off as they panic and flee.
IRL I’m totally non-violent, but there’s something about doing this that takes the edge off my stress. I’ve returned to that save point several times.
- Comment on Valve Acknowledges Steam Deck Shortages Due To Global Memory and Storage Issues 1 week ago:
When the AI bubble pops, it’ll screw the economy. The rich will be fine. The rest of us will be crouched naked in a puddle of piss, weeping and eating worms. We’ll look back fondly to the days of the bubble, when we had shoes.
- Comment on Video Games Need to Be Cheaper to Buy 1 week ago:
Yeah, and then the game made by a small team ends up being much more successful.
- Comment on Marathon | Launch Gameplay Trailer 1 week ago:
This actually looks like it might be good. That said, I’ve only got a steam deck and I doubt this will run on deck, so I’ll not be playing it.
- Comment on Control Resonant - Gameplay Reveal 1 week ago:
Such a shame, it’s so obvious what’s going to happen :(
- Comment on Silent Hill: Townfall - Reveal Trailer | PS5 Games 1 week ago:
A silent hill set in England! Looks good too. In the unlikely event that this runs on steam deck, I’ll be playing it.
- Comment on Mewgenics recouped its development cost in the first 3 hours 1 week ago:
I’m not surprised, with those trailers on steam - it looks great! Anyone here played it? I’m tempted, but I’ve got a long queue.
- Comment on Anon hangs out with a coworker 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, I’ve also known people who can’t handle being on their own at all. It’s not obvious if they spread themselves amongst a bunch of different people. I’m the exact opposite, I guess somewhere in the middle is the sweet spot.
- Comment on Games you really want to play, but can't or won't? 3 weeks ago:
Ah, fair enough. I played it for a bit and then moved on, partly because the steam deck was struggling with it. TBF I’m impressed the steam deck could play it at all.
- Comment on What is the definitive way to play certain games? 3 weeks ago:
Silent Hill - alone, in the dark.
- Comment on Gaming market melts down after Google reveals new AI game design tool — Project Genie crashes stocks. (A.K.A . Investors panic because they don't understand what "real" videogames are) 3 weeks ago:
That’s all it does so far.
But I doubt AI games will succeed, people are always going to want the human touch when it comes to art.
- Comment on Games you really want to play, but can't or won't? 3 weeks ago:
Great, you’re in for a treat
- Comment on Games you really want to play, but can't or won't? 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, same. And my hands are fucked up, and my reflexes slower. Shame, I used to like that sort of game when I was younger. Ho hum, plenty of other good stuff to play.
- Comment on Games you really want to play, but can't or won't? 3 weeks ago:
That’s a shame, I really enjoyed it on my steam deck
- Comment on Games you really want to play, but can't or won't? 3 weeks ago:
I played it on steam deck about a year ago, and TBH it struggled. Though it’s probably been optimised better since, I think development is ongoing. Still the best driving game I’ve played.
- Comment on Players are returning their Dispatch copies due to Switch censorship 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, also if we argue that violent videogames don’t cause violence - what’s the problem with sexual content? If they’re censoring sexual stuff because they believe videogames if corrupt and change behaviour, the violent ones should definitely be banned.
Also - I’m using Google’s Android keyboard and just realised the dictionary didn’t know the word ‘sexual’. Just in case someone might try to write something spicy. FFS. It knew ‘violent’ though.
- Comment on Anon likes pizza 3 weeks ago:
Also the cost of actually cooking the thing. Doesn’t take long but oven has to be proper hot. The cost will be negligible compared to the ingredients, but many people are carefully watching their utility bills right now.
- Comment on Why do you need a launcher? (asking older gamers actually) 3 weeks ago:
It’s there, and I’m lazy.
- Comment on Ubisoft target audience when they play a good game 5 weeks ago:
Yeah I played it for the first time last year and I couldn’t really get into it. Gave up a few hours in.
- Comment on AI-Induced RAM Crunch Could Push Next PlayStation and Xbox Past 2028 1 month ago:
Doesn’t that rely on everyone having a fast internet connection with a high data cap? That’s not the case for a lot of people
- Comment on 2 months ago:
Hey that looks good actually. Wishlisted it for when I have more time.
- Comment on Settings you believe ANY game should have? (This is me advocating for a restart/reboot button on ALL games) 2 months ago:
Yeah, the steam deck does this, it’s a great feature.

Didn’t he buy a massive yacht on the same day steam announced these products? It can’t be easy to sneak a superyacht under the publicity radar, but he seems to have pretty much managed it.
- Comment on Anon finds a bot 2 months ago:
I like to think that somewhere out there, an LLM is slowly digesting my reddit history, lurking in the cloud, waiting to one day puke one of those stinky brown nuggets into some executive’s quarterly sales report.
- Comment on Gaming Laptop with Linux Preinstalled and 32GB+ RAM? 2 months ago:
Yeah I have a gaming laptop and I haven’t used it since I got a steam deck.
- Comment on Anon gets his life in order 3 months ago:
Personally, I prefer dating a woman who has sex with me when she wants to because she wants to. Fuck these manipulative head games.
