Right. They’re planning to release a new version of the game with microtransactions and likely some crypto who knows what because they were able to snipe the trademark.

Upvoting despite the Xitter link because people need to know about the scummy shit going down with Flappy Bird.

I always thought they were adorable. They did a great job making recognizable vehicles all dinky.

Dumb car but funny idea.

Glad to know I’m not the only old-ass person here who thinks the same thing.

Every time I saw one of those I wanted to put a penny in the back to make it do a wheelie.

Welcome to dystopia. Jesus Christ this is bleak shit.

93/100 is a fraction. This is meaningless.

Edit: to be clear, the HEADLINE is meaningless. The actual cost from the article is £390.

Oh hey get fucked, bigot

Alien Isolation. Resident Evil 7. If you can do either/both in VR, DO IT.

Yep I’d heard about that. Man those were some Wild West days.

Oh no, I’m talking the NES game. It was a hateful thing.

I mean major kudos for getting past the god dam level reliably. I think I beat it once on an emulator.

Don’t worry, no one beat that game.

(Obviously now sixteen people will come in and tell me they beat the game but I will take this chance to mention that the PC port was literally unbeatable without cheating or modifying the game due to a mapping bug.)

Was this game named by an AI?

Also novel: the dong wipe shot transition.

Both! And the way they work is different based on the fact that locally you can both see the screen but online you have different views.

If you don’t mind horror games, the entire Dark Pictures Anthology and The Quarry are really fun shared stories with branching paths.

It’s not impressive, but it’s nice to get a mainstream release that maxes it out within reason for the vast majority of people with zero effort or inside knowledge. If you aren’t happy with anything less than 8k 144Hz, then you can make that happen for yourself by other means. But for the millions of people with 120Hz TVs from a Memorial Day sale, this really is a meaningful offering.

My Baseless Prediction, i.e. if I ran Xbox, what I would do given their situation:

Microsoft will sunset the Xbox as a console but focus on creating a dual boot mode for Windows similar to the Steam Deck and Big Picture Mode. Probably called “Xbox Mode” or something similarly unoriginal but evocative. This streamlined mode will greatly reduce system overhead and be controller-centric, and it will have an emulation layer to support all Xbox ecosystem games along with backward compatibility. On certain form factors it will be the default boot mode, and supporting this they will release two new Windows PC form factors: a living room box and a handheld. Other PC manufacturers will be able to jump on the wagon as well. I doubt they will in any way define reference performance profiles akin to a console “generation” but they may have some kind of guidance regarding how graphics should scale seamlessly between TV/monitor and handheld form factors to allow for a Switch-like docking experience.
