Not surprised you skipped other M. I haven’t heard a single good thing about that one

I had so much fun with dread earlier this year. It motivated me to buy and mod an original GBA so I could finally beat the copy of Fusion I’ve had since I was a kid. That really got the ball rolling on me finishing as many Metroids as I can ahead of Prime 4. I think I’ve finished 4-5 now. Still haven’t done Super Metroid, which everyone tells me is the best, but I’m a snob and I want to get a Super Nintendo controller to play it with.

Only a couple more weeks until Prime 4!

Yes, there are some pretty fun weapons in the Gears sequels. I like the torque bow.

They said the federal trade commission, not the FCC. This guy is the chair

I can’t stop laughing at these, what a great day of shitposting

Yeah, that was the point of my story…

I feel like I came at this from another direction. In my twenties I cut my foot pretty bad on a rusty screw so I went to the hospital and got stitches. The doctor didn’t prescribe me an antibiotic and I foolishly thought “oh they’re a doctor, I must not need one!” I of course got a pretty bad infection within a few days that required me to be on IV antibiotics for several days. I’m lucky I didn’t need any debridement or worse. I learned through that experience that nobody knows what the fuck is going on and you cannot count on “adults” because we generally know fuck-all.

Yeah his framing is pretty trumpian which is gross even in the (doubtful) event he’s actually right. God forbid journalists do journalism and cover a company which has been caught stealing IP multiple times, and god forbid someone ask someone involved what their take was on the matter. Dumb.

“I understand that you like to stir up controversy, so here you go: the whistleblower, the truth seeker. This is my account, so here’s how I actually feel: you’re wrong and misinformed,” Mielgo replied. “No assets. As far as I know, Bungie accidentally used a texture, mostly typos and fonts, all lost in a wonderful massive creative pipeline. 

“All this ass it was genuinely a mistake, blown out of proportion by people like you and hungry sphincter press. Regardless, to your pseudowistle, none of the text/fonts ever reached our team. The Bungie team is fantastic, and the work they did before us was f****ng outstanding. I loved working with them.”

It’s fuckin weird for a creative to act this dismissive towards IP theft, even if it was just one texture. How does one even accidentally steal a texture someone else made?

TIL Sam is gay

I stopped using Kagi because I felt their base tier didn’t include enough searches but if they keep adding good features like this I may go back.

But will the new valve hardware help fill the empty pit in my chest?

I said always, I just used an example from this century. Your comment does remind me of the UMD disks and their propriety sd cards

I don’t even think they really hid it from the console space. Their entire PS3 launch was peak hubris. They just don’t step on rakes as much as Microsoft does, and Nintendo would shoot a litter of puppies if it helped them protect their IP rights, so they look better in comparison.

Turning into? They’ve always been this way. It’s been like 20 years since they decided it was ok to install rootkits on people’s PCs to protect their IP rights.

I appreciate the assist lol

Been waiting for a competitor to the meta quest. Looks like my patience has paid off. I hope it’s not too pricey/compromised

Unbound hooked me so much I bought an OG GBA and put it on a cartridge like it’s a traditional game

I still use mine. I modded it and it can play a ton of games. The Pokemon romhacks are fun
