GTA 6 is something like 200Gb, pre-ordering means you can pre download the game and install it before the lock is lifted on the release date. That’s the only reason to pre-order a game nowadays.

- Comment on Laid off idTech developers are starting their own studio: Hidden Horses 2 days ago:
Okay but how to pay the employees when the first game hasn’t released yet? Still need an investor especially if you are going to start a studio with people that relied on a salary to pay the bills and have a family and don’t live in a dorm or their parent’s basement anymore.
And the vast majority of investor want to see a return. Not many philanthropists out there who want to fund a game studio. And a loan from a bank is impossible if the studio doesn’t have revenue. A for-profit co-op is a better structure, since it allows investors getting a return.

Retail investors won’t move the needle at all. Might as well ride the wave and make some money.

It’s not even about the affair. It’s about tech being stolen by China. Meaning NVidia isn’t going to stay the dominant player for long, so people took money off the table before the competition release their products to compete with NVidia.
- Comment on PlayStation Cancels Online Shooting Title ‘Fairgames’ 4 days ago:
Sony is a Japanese company yet they want to target the Western gamer with their live service game and use a Western studio to make it. Like do they not know how often people play f2p games in their domestic market? The F2P market in East Asia is a lot bigger than here in the West. And the average western F2P player spends less money then the average Japanese F2P player. Also they keep trying to make a live service game with triple A realistic graphics which is the dumbest thing they can do. Cost too much money and doesn’t attract young and Asian players.
Like even Nintendo has success in the F2P market with Fire Emblem and Animal Crossing.

It’s in the opening level. Where Nathan Drake walks around his attic and walks down memory lane and finds a toy gun and shoots targets. It basically serves as a tutorial.

Right after the news of BioWare’s death. Hmm looks like a PR move to me.

The Abrahamaic god is a wargod and god of destruction. It’s based on the gods of the Pantheon the people in the Levant worshipped before monotheism. And every god in that Pantheon has something to do with war, death or destruction.

- Comment on Can a region locked Switch 2 still be jail broken? 2 weeks ago:
That exploit isn’t a full jailbreak. Basically someone found out to use the SmileBasic game to create a buffer overflow and inject their own program into ram. But still no real way to install homebrew as an app and open up the full Switch 2 for homebrew development . Every home brew program in that hack has to be run via the SmileBasic exploit. So unless you installed SmileBasic before it got removed that exploit is basically closed. And Nintendo is going to patch it anyway.

- Comment on Is the 3DS worth purchasing despite it being "obsolete" today? 3 weeks ago:
The Zelda remakes are pretty accessible for a learner though not a lot of text. Animal Crossing has lots of text but some villagers talk weird or kawaii so can be confusing but it’s still good. The Mario & Luigi rpgs and the Dragon Quests rpgs have lots of text and furigana so I recommend those too.
- Comment on Is the 3DS worth purchasing despite it being "obsolete" today? 3 weeks ago:
I recently jailbroken mine so I could play Japanese games. Because it’s aimed at all ages it has lots of games with furigana text. Since I already have a 3DS it was a better option than buying a modded Switch.
Also the games on 3DS are unique because of the dual screens. It’s an experience you can’t have on Switch. And lots of GenZ people grew up with 3DS and are searching to scratch that nostalgia itch. I think also the rising cost of new games is pushing people to piracy. And a jailbroken 3DS is super convenient for that.
- Comment on Bloodborne is now on PC natively with online features like massages, bloodstains and co-op 4 weeks ago:
Okay but did they vibe coded this port by themselves or did they even check the code base for this? This is different from repackaging a legit game with a crack. Like a crypto miner could be hidden inside the code base that even a virus scanner won’t find. Since the compiled binary won’t show any patterns that match with known malware.
- Comment on How important is owning your own video games to you? 4 weeks ago:
It’s crazy how a used New 3DS XL cost as much as a Switch or even a Switch 2 these days. Jailbreaking and putting pirated roms on it has become so easy that this handheld has become popular again.
- Comment on US Rep proposes bill to give video game buyers "ownership," not "a license" 4 weeks ago:
If you download the installers you are literally making a copy. Since you still have access to the files on the Gog server. Making copies for personal use is allowed but selling the copies is not because of copyright laws. There is no digital store that facilitates reselling where you can transfer the license of one game to someone else.
- Comment on Console market craters as Xbox sales crash 33% to the lowest since launch 25 years ago, PS5 sales drop 25% 4 weeks ago:
The future will be even worse. Have you seen what people have been doing with AI the last couple of weeks. People have decompiled entire games using AI and made PS5 games run on PC natively. Something that took years by multiple devs takes a few days by a single dev with a Claude account. Sony and MS are definitely shitting their pants right now. Their solution will be cloud streaming only consoles.
