Guess I’m not buying it then. Microsoft really hates printing discs.

I haven’t scrolled all the comments yet, so apologies if this has already been mentioned, but Dragon’s Dogma passing a lot of those checks, if you can get over some minor jank. It’s definitely an action oriented adventure role playing game, where you can get quests to take out minor enemies, but also can have epic battles against dragons and giants.

A fun mechanic is clinging to and climbing larger enemies, you can for example jump up and grab the neck of a dragon and hold on while slashing at it. Or you can have your allies hold down an enemy so you can get a critical hit on it. The pawn system for allies allows you to customize and develop your allies to suit your needs and playstyle, and you can recruit other players pawns who come with their own memories and knowledges, but their voicelines can get a bit repetitive. Expect to hear “This enemy is weak to fire” a lot…

Overall it’s a unique and interesting game, worth checking out if you haven’t. Especially if you can get it on sale for cheap.

It runs at 4k on the Xbox series x also.

I laugh at this every time I see it, but I also like to point out that Rage was, in fact, extremely explicit about what machine they were raging against.

Google, with their significantly more meaningful influence in the world, is significantly worse than epic, who can barely even have an effect on the gaming markets, compared to Google who effects nearly ever aspect of our modern lives in some way.

That will be cool! I do a lot of repair, but aviation is another level! Fixing things is honestly the most satisfying labor overall for me. I take any opportunity I can to learn a new device. I’m in assembly these days, though, so it’s mostly for friends and family. Do you need to go to school for aviation maintenance?

I’m sure it’ll lie about US actions during the war, just like when they blamed the Highway of Death on the Soviets. COD literally has to get permission from the US government to feature US military equipment, they’re definitely exercising some editorial control in exchange for that. COD is propaganda, and nothing but.

Play store revenue, while sizable, is less than a quarter of the revenue collected by their advertising business. As I said, much of the data requisite for that advertisement business’ revenue is collected from the 1 billion android devices with Google services installed. You’re saying, Google would give up the data of 1 billion people, which feeds its most profitable division, because of losing the ability to earn less than a quarter of what the advertising portion of their business brings in?

I guess it’s an irrelevant point anyway, we don’t live in that world, but that’s an interesting perspective, and I don’t think I share it. I think Google could stop charging entirely for all Google play services and they would still develop android because it brings them hundreds of billions of dollars a year. I don’t think they will, mind you, so it’s again, an irrelevant point, but my point is, as I said above, Google Play revenues do not support the development of android, that development is supported by costs to manufacturers in licensing Google services, before a phone ever makes it into the hands of a consumer for them to buy apps in the Google Play store.

Android exists because it was developed by enthusiasts. It was purchased by Google, not created by them.

Anyways, if we look at googles revenue streams, it’s clear that advertising is significantly more valuable to them than Play store, and they get much of their valuable data through the android platform. Personally, I’d argue it’s far more logical that androids continued development serves their advertising business than it is to say that android is an avenue to Google Play revenues.

Wtf are you talking about? What I said, is that the licensing fees google charges for use of their products already covers the costs of development they put into android. They don’t use Google play store revenues to cover costs, because those costs are already covered before anyone makes a purchase from the Google Play store,

And… licensing Android/Google Play services pays for that development, not the store revenue.

In most cases you can, usually it’s a bit more convoluted, like inserting your disk then upgrading through the in-game pop up, or through the dlc menu while the disk is installed.

That makes sense! I never picked them up as a kid cause I already had 2 on n64 and 3 on PS1. I might have to check out those versions. Are the backgrounds higher resolution too? That’s the hardest part about replaying them on an hdtv, it’s just so blurry!

GC versions of RE2/3 were just ports, weren’t they? The only original RE games on GameCube were. REMake, RE0, and RE4.

Jesus this is a terrible article, wtf is this supposed to mean?

The 1995 Disney 16-bit platform game Gargoyles is something that I vividly recall. Realizing my age next to a true gargoyle, I can firmly state that I don’t.

I bet you’re right.

Unless you’ve already bought it I’d rake Ghostwire off the list. It’s… painfully mediocre. In every way, honestly. I was pretty excited for it, but it’s bad. It feels like an original Xbox era game with a new skin of paint over it.

Because Pratt isn’t a good voice actor. Really though, there were few standout performances in that entire movie, so he wasn’t alone in that. It’s almost like they picked the cast based on who can only play themselves, not on who would be a good choice. Princess Peach, Luigi, and Bowser were the only real solid performances in my opinion.

Oh man, I don’t know how I forgot that visceral image. Though I kinda wish I’d kept my mouth closed and never remembered lmao. Thank you!

It’s been years since I played it, and it was only one time since it’s basically a demo, what happens at the end of MGS Ground Zeroes?
