Well it’s nice that he got his red flag out early.

There’s going to be so many confused retirees.
- Comment on Why is society at large okay with euthanasia for pets but not for humans? 2 weeks ago:
Because pets aren’t leaving anyone large sums of cash in their will.
- Comment on Fallout: New Vegas dev says don't expect a remaster, argues Bethesda doesn't have the source code or 'the engineering knowhow' 2 weeks ago:
I’ll disagree a bit. Angel of Darkness should definitely have been a Remake.
They must have put so much effort in to get that just as crappy as the original.

Well it didn’t cost him anything.
- Comment on PlayStation To Require Age Verification For Certain Online Features 2 weeks ago:
I think it’s “show us your face”, if the Yoti app is involved.
However, it looks like the only limit is communication, and I’ve no interest in being communicated with by anybody on PSN thank you very much.
- Comment on Driving game poll 2 weeks ago:
Sounds a bit shit to me. Racing is why most people play car games.
But then MS Flight Sim is basically just that but for planes, so who knows. It could find a niche market. You’d probably have to go all in on the details though.

The more time goes on, the more I think Sony’s approach of adding games after a year or so was the right one.
You can’t have a subscription service giving day one access to all your content, and provide good content, and have it at a reasonable price. Something has to give. Even when you’ve got as much money as Microsoft.
The glorious cloud gaming future they envisaged never happened. You’re still limited to people willing to shell out for some gaming hardware.
- Comment on Steam is basically a PC gaming monopoly, so why isn’t anyone mad? 2 weeks ago:
I don’t care that Steam has an effective monopoly on digital games. That’s fine. Games can and are on many other services for PC, but gamers want them on Steam. Fine. Whatever. You can even buy games from other services, get Steam codes, and use them as if you got them from Steam, even though Steam get no money from that sale. That’s amazing. Really.
But.
They killed the idea that you can own a PC game. I mean legally own it, be able to sell your copy of it to another person, and no longer have it yourself. You could do that with physical. You still can with physical console games. But on PC that concept is dead. It’s not coming back. And Valve did that. You now just rent them. Fine, you think, Valve isn’t going anywhere. But one day Valve will be gone, and this will matter. No king rules forever.
And the least said about lootboxes and hats and all that scummy crap the better.

Well I guess that’s fine. It’s a long time since I was at school but I don’t think hands can get pregananant.

Good point, don’t wank in the swimming pool either.
- Comment on Starfield PS5 players demand refunds, reporting widespread bugs and glitches that leave the game "unplayable" 3 weeks ago:
Are they buying it though? Or are they just playing on Game Pass and cancelling again?
I think MS bought them for what they publish (id, Arkane, MachineGames, etc) rather than what they make. With MS taking over publishing duty, Bethesda Studios could be a lot closer to the chopping block than they think. It’s been a long time since Skyrim (close to 15 years at this point), and even big studios only get so many tries to get lighting in a bottle again.

They’re still in an Xbox 360 mindset, in a world where Baldur’s Gate 3 and KCD2 exist.
Action gamers are spoiled for choice. RPG gamers are spoiled for choice. I just don’t see where Bethesda’s “here’s a wonky game engine and a big map” approach fits in that.

What’s with the Jimmy Savile paedo look? That’s got to be on purpose, right? Has he just watched 28 Years Later and not realised where it’s from?

Of all the places that give a shit about oil spills, I don’t think the Middle East is one of them.

I dunno, there’s been some pretty fucking bad genocides about the place over the years, as well as shit like Stalin and Mao.
When it comes to killing other countries people, they might be.

I tried to get 28 Days Later when it came out and ended up watching a movie about Sandra Bullock in rehab.

I dunno, but he’s seen some shit.

You missed Jason Statham’s Shelter, starring Jason Statham.
It’s completely fucking shit, feels like it was written by AI, and feels like it was acted by one as well.

- Comment on PS6 and Xbox Project Helix "will start at a 50% higher price" than PS5 and Xbox Series X, predict analysts following Sony price hike – and $999 "is not impossible" 5 weeks ago:
I agree, from MS point of view.
But people around here were very excited a few weeks back when it got announced, and were convinced it means they’ll be able to play their Steam libraries on it.
- Comment on PS6 and Xbox Project Helix "will start at a 50% higher price" than PS5 and Xbox Series X, predict analysts following Sony price hike – and $999 "is not impossible" 1 month ago:
No, they said it would run PC games.
Whether that means Steam remains to be seen.
