- Comment on Tom Hardy's Splinter Cell Movie Is Officially Dead 1 week ago:
I only read the first one so far. It’s alright but they’re not written by Clancy sadly.
- Comment on Tom Hardy's Splinter Cell Movie Is Officially Dead 1 week ago:
Like the Splinter Cell books? (At least the first one)
- Comment on GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition Gets Surprise Update on Console and PC, Adds Visual Features That Were Exclusive to Mobile Versions 1 week ago:
So uhm, they made a mobile port of a pc/console port of a mobile port of the original pc/console games?
- Comment on Take-Two is selling its indie games label Private Division 2 weeks ago:
They still haven’t formally announced that development on KSP2 has stopped right? They didnt even announce the studio shutdown. Yet it’s still on sale on Steam…
- Comment on (not) shipping gaming PCs 1 month ago:
Remember that prices in the US are before taxes (VAT) since they differ for each state and are calculated during checkout. I think I’d prefer to move -> buy than to buy -> move.
- Comment on Red Dead Redemption and Undead Nightmare coming to PC October 29 1 month ago:
So much for the “Red Dead Redemption isn’t big enough for PC” reason they gave for not porting it back in the day.
- Comment on Random Screenshots of my Games #7 - Battlezone 98 Redux 1 month ago:
Oh man, Battlezone: the Red Odyssey was one of my first true gaming moments and I loved it so much. It was my most favorite game for a very long time. It was believed for a while thar the source code got lost and it therefore wouldn’t become available as DLC for Battlezone 98 Redux, but I guess the developers either found it or remade it from scratch since DLC has been available for some time now.
I bought Battlezone 1 some time after experiencing Red Odyssey and I was sure it had background music though. It was one of the very few boxed games I bought and remembered it had an awesome looking manual. In 1999, Battlezone II: Combat Commander was released and I don’t think it had a story but only a skirmish RTS/FPS mode. I didn’t like it that much.
Battlezone Gold Edition (2017) has nothing to with the above series I think, and seems more like a spinoff of the 1980’s Battlezone. I’ve seen this game once before but totally forgot it existed until seeing it now. Battlezone Combat Commander (2018) is a remake of Battlezone II (1999).

Didn’t we reach a point where EULAs are non-enforcable? Or is that just in the EU? But regardless, Valve can just ban you and good luck doing anything about it.

- Comment on Bethesda Is Charging $7 For A New Starfield Mission, And Players Are Upset 5 months ago:
Also remember Horse Armor DLC for Oblivion, released by Bethesda? Considered by many to be the catalyst of this kind of BS.
- Comment on $843 million lawsuit against Valve already has its own website: "The Steam Claim" accuses the biggest store in PC gaming of "overcharging" players 5 months ago:
Yes, the profit is excessive, but it’s because they have a good product where the competition has not really been putting in much effort and letting Valve get away with it for so long.
Valve’s goal isn’t to maximize profit because they don’t have shareholders that demand it. If they really wanted to maximize profits then there’s a whole lot more to squeeze out of Steam and the games they made. And yes I agree Valve can lower their cut and still make bucket loads of money, but I highly doubt that if they did reduce their cut it would actually lead to cheaper games except for a maybe a few. Because just like Valve, the devs and publishers are profit driven and why would they turn down a potentially bigger profit?

Steam didn’t get to where it is because of market abuse but because of providing a good service, or at least a service that was better than anything else at the time by far. Valve are reaping the rewards now, but are also still providing an arguably better service than it’s competitors. It’s a bit odd that you want to punish a company just for being successful.
Valve isn’t perfect and they’re profit driven, but they’re privately owned and the goals isn’t maximizing profit, which isn’t something you can say about most of their competitors.
- Comment on Trackmania 20th Anniversary: Desert Update Trailer 5 months ago:
I guess that the devs needed to strike a balance between the old style and making sure it fits with the current style since I think you can combine tiles from all themes in a single map.

Also to add to this, you are disqualified from contributing code to the WINE project if you’ve seen parts of the Windows source code for this exact same reason.

I was going to upvote your comment but I didn’t because you didn’t ask for it. Sorry.
- Comment on Steam News - Introducing SteamVR 2.0 1 year ago:
X or Wayland? I had lots of issues with Wayland and X seemed to work a lot better. I still prefer to do VR on Windows.
