Oh, and mine was F29 Retaliator. It was my first flight game with a joystick back in 1990. Man, did I log some hours on that one.

I fell down this rabbit hole ages ago. There were a bunch of games that I fondly remembered and wanted to play again. That was the starting point. The finish line was a new permanent fixture in my house and about 1tb of games loaded on it. It has just about every game made from Atari 2600 to...

I definitely understand that one. I really, really dislike reality tv shows. In spite of that, I have seen an absolute ton of seasons.

I don't know if anyone's read the book, but it looks like a movie's coming out for it next year. If it's half as good as The Martian, it should be phenomenal. I really enjoyed the book. I have to caution watching the trailer if you haven't read the book though. The trailer feels like it...

The Battle for Brooklyn DLC drops today. It also goes up on gamepass. View: https://youtu.be/S65EIG8H3Z4?si=8AfCiV1Oww-PwaGi

It doesn't look like it will even be available on PC for a while after release. GTA V took what, a year before moving on from consoles to the PC? So for gamers like me that can't shoot for shit on a controller, it's going to be much later than May 26th before it becomes a thing for me. Also...

I had my hopes that it would turn out to be some long winded, epic story. Godspeed Cosmic, godspeed.

Holy shit, that's wicked. Awesome work!

Haha! My wife too! I always envision Henry Cavill walking down the street, anywhere, any street, just getting showered by underwear wherever he goes. Like a goddam tickertape parade...

While it hasn't gotten far enough to reach individual cheaters yet, Bungie has successfully sued Lavicheats, VeteranCheats, and AimJunkies for millions each (6.7m, 4.3m, and 12m respectively). Activision scored one too against EngineOwning UG for a cool million. So there has been some justice...

That's the other side of the issue. The more PVP is enabled, the more attractive it is for cheat developers and exploiters. Along with that is RMT and people that start using that community as a source of income. The true extent of the cheat issue is debated, but even on the low end it's...

I respectfully disagree. I think now is the perfect time to deep dive into the conversation. Not specifically now, but while development still has room to change. I've seen far too many games with relaxed pvp frameworks fail almost immediately. Millions of players show up to the game's...

Many games have tried to mix PVP with PVE. Most have failed miserably. I would even argue that all have failed in that the "successes" are only after most of the PVE players leave and only PVP players that dabble in PVE remain. The problem is and always has been a combination of risk...

I don't know how it is with you all, but I stopped talking about Star Citizen. It felt too much like I was trying to convince my friends that the earth is flat. It's like bringing up the name Star Citizen lowers people's opinion of me. Like I am suddenly gullible and easily misguided. To the...

My pocketknife The Tirant Razor V3. I have beat the piss out of it for a couple years now and it has stood up like a champ. I have been a fan of carrying a folding utility knife for a long time now because I hate sharpening knives. I bought this because it looked classy and was minimalistic. It...
