I wasnt saying that the terms said that just that them aaying it would be an example of my point.

“would be”, its an eample of abuse of the SMP

Isnt a natural monolpoly something like YKK who just have the economics and processes in place to capture the market?

That isn’t necessarily true, companies with SMP have additional regulations. Steam having terms in their contracts preventing sale for cheaper elsewhere would be abuse of their SMP.

Sell their assets, someone else could do a good AC. Youdont get to be shit and hold all the cards, they dont deserve to keep everything they built at the cost of the livelihoods of their staff.

Very true. What is the method for this to work

Oh yeah but I have a PS5 but was waiting for my bonus to start a PC build which nowlooks like I will need to wait for a lotto win. I had stopped buying games so I had some to play when I moved over.

Ah fuck this altogether, hopefully steam locked prices otherwise i am sticking with consoles.

The prices are insane

This is uninformed bullshit. You are wrong and talking with authority on something you clearly know nothing about, I can only assume you live somewhere without employee protections and rights.

Cant imagine its the case that they dont need to, only some shit hole country would not have basic employee rights

Nsmb wii was brilliant, really enjoyed it. The new one had fine parts but was just too disjointed and became tedious and zany which I wouldnt usually tiento Mario

Super Mario Bros Wonder sucked. I hope they don’t take it’s sales as a direction on the franchise because it is my least favourite.

Also how is Hogwarts so high and 90% off, must have had a huge fall off.

I am so wary of downloading them though, exe files are scary for fools like me

I am in the process of moving to pc from ps. I wont buy the same games again, it doesnt make sense to me. Where it is cheap and easy I have done but I feel I bought the right to buy them and also I hate some of the features with logins and always on connections.

I was playing this last night I just pressed download and I got my ass handed to me 4/5 times.

There were some pieces mentioned on waveform about its set up being out of box ready to be turned on by tv remote and those few console like bits that people like me wouldnt know how to do if we built.

Should I get a steam link? Not entirely sure of its purpose but those words look good

Yes

I dont know, I have heard valid complaints but the western setting doesnt allow for much other than bandit themed random encounters and favours. There are other more out there ones that hint to larger things like time travel etc.

At a certain point the blame lies with the worker, I am pro union but jesus have some self respect and look for better.

Its funny people downvoted you for being the very thing they ae pointing out to you existing.

Its is just a comic that makes the point that not everyone knows what seems common to you and while there is significant overlap in most peoples knowledge people should take delight in being the ones to bring otherwise common knowledge to those who do not yet possess it.

V was still fairly linear, the heists were just missions. If they had done what we expected and let us do heists independently then it would be different. Hoping GTAVI under performs but it likely wont.

Game - year - critic/user score

Deadly Alliance - 2002 - 79/73

Deception - 2004 - 81/80

Shaolin Monks - 2005 - 77/87

Armageddon - 2006 - 75/80

Mk9 - 2011 - 79/83

MKX - 2015 - 83/77

MK11 - 2019 - 82/43

MK1 - 2023 - 83/65

The user score has not cracked 80 in 14 years. My point with that game was people were excited for a new MK game after a largr gap. In a two year period they released their three highest rated games since they moved to consoles.

Disagree on all fronts. The competitive piece is one aspect, they could try new game modes that are not just reskins and points like MK Karting, Chess, Konquest, etc.

The modern games all under perform against the ps2 games on metacritic. The only modern one to crack 8.0 or higher is a fourteen yesr old Ps3 entry which had a lot of fanfare as the brsnd returning and was not shit.

Deception Krypt was the best. The rest are shallow hybrid konquestd.

The best MKs had multiple play modes liie Konquest. The push to online pushed me out.

Nintendo suck, they always have. I have always heard the xbox v ps battle coming down to hardware and exclusives but truly Nintendo live and die by Mario et al.

I have a switch, a covid gift and I could not stand their store shovelware or predatory subscriptions so I only ever bought second hand and have now taken to high seas. They suck.

Playstation and Cbox are close behind too.

I bought MK Deception at launch, it had multiple different play modes, a lot of characters and a new incredible sequel MK game came like the next year and another year after that an entire new game with every character ever.

3 complete distinct games that pushed the envelope in 3 years without DLC. New MK sucks, just looks more polished and people think it should be priced with RDR2 AND get the season model?

You are defending greed to the detriment of art.

The PS3 was revolutionary just difficult to shift to programming.

That said a industry in saturated to declining stages of life should probably not make their product less accessible to those giving it value.

Everyone still tried to make it work on PS3, I cant imagine that drive will be there for the ps6 era.

Ps2 was golden Mortal Kombat territory.

I would have assumed that this was just the available space and that the EU has regs around what can be called storage space.

Also fuck Sony, raise the price in te US where they are fucking around. Storage is cheap af nowadays.

This happens a lot. Its where yoga came from.

Got astrobot for my son and GoW for myself.

Other than that it was useless and both of those are not enough to stay. Finally committed to building a linux gaming setup.

I cant specifically remember what IGN did to make me avoid it. There was a revoly.on reddit years ago that stuck with me.

They also rank shit games high and are a but boring, but I think maybe there was a lot of ads or something.

This gen gave me the kick to leave consoles. Neither Sony or Nintendo seem that interested with me being a customer, constant paywalls and upsells while getting less and less in return. I’ll get the next 8-10 years of games through the ps5 after that I imagine everything will be on pc. VR is not my thing, neither is online or live service so I can get all the emulators without a monthly cost.

Consoles are dead.

Playing astrobot time trials at te moment and instant respawns would give me like 20% more playtime

Moving exclusively to linux and piracy, thank you capitalism

“whishlist”

We are under constant attack from lobbying, foreign money, corruption and failing allied states looking to hurt us.

Other countries should be championing these causes also.

Worst AI ever. Outperformed in every aspect, including rudimentary excel formulas, by every other llm I have used.

I have mario games and that is it for switch. Ill wait until the piracy is strong to jump in on swotch two games.
