Is that the edgy vibes that you miss, or just generic childhood nostalgia?

Everyone has it, me included. I miss playing Tekken with my brother, and comparing our progress in Sacred, and generally speaking, nerding together. We are both adults and employed, and he’s got two kids as well, now. We barely have time for a brief phone call to check on each other over the weekend :(

The over-the-top edgy/“how do you do, fellow kids?” vibes of the early y2k years is definitely something that I don’t miss from that era.

I can somehow hear Linking Park in the distance while scrolling this post.

Can I also ask my spotter to carry the groceries for me? My building has no elevator, my muscles make a lot of whoopsies.

… Who was Adegast again?

Maybe it’s time for another rewatch :D

One more road bro. Just one more road and we solve war bro. Trust me bro. Just one more road…

Japanese Drift Master seems interesting. I enjoy open world racing games ever since I fell in love with Test Drive Unlimited back in the days, but I can’t vibe with Forza Horizon because of the constant “Congratulations, you just drove 5 meters in this direction! Take this awesome car for free!” wherever you go. It completely robs me of the enjoyment of progressing through the game.

Wishlisted it, I’ll probably buy it as soon as I have some free time.

He liked the name “Pertinacus” more.

They had a lot of bling, though. Very fashionable.

3 in the ideal situation, requires the user to have played like i dont remember, 10 different games.

Or watch a 30-minute recap.

A lot of petting and treats.

Ah yes, the most dangerous foe of Rome. Rome itself.

I too hate Forrest.

I trust these people with every cell of my body.

Science would be a lot better if scientists gave every creature funny names.

Everything is Hooty. The sky. The earth we walk on. The air we breathe. Our bodies. We are not sentient beings. We are but a persistent fragment of a dream Hooty once had, which He refuses to let die.

The sooner we accept it, the sooner our minds will find peace.

This is wonderful advice! Thank you, John Xbox! I may be without a job, but I will keep on using your products like the mindless consumer I am, so that your paychecks will keep on growing.

God, this is so out of touch that it stops being funny and becomes genuinely uncanny. Like, are these people even real? Are they robots piloted by Skynet? Am I the only real person on the entire planet?

This is top quality journalism offered for free. We don’t deserve you.

Don Mattrick left Xbox in 2013. It was more than a decade ago. He may have ruined the XOne launch, but Spencer has had all the time and money in the world to rectify his mistakes and, so far, has only worsened them to the point that most doubt that a new Xbox will exist at all. Nintendo was on the brink of disaster after the Wii U, and managed to turn their fates around in half the time and with a fraction of the money. Why couldn’t Spencer?

In all these years, Spencer’s legacy has been of failed deals, shutting down/letting go multiple studios, and moronic attempts at building AAA and GAAS games on the back of seasonal contractors. We should stop blaming Mattrick for things that happened a decade after he left the company.

I swear this is not me doomering (I very much support this campaign and even signed it myself half a year ago), but I strongly suspect that at least a good chunk of those are fake. The issue is very hot in “terminally online” circles and those are the kind of people who don’t really think things through before acting.

I hope the number will keep on growing until the “legit” votes make up for the fake ones.

I’m pretty sure that, in this specific case, the delay was mandated by the game’s publisher, Sony. I doubt the Series S has anything to do with it.
