  1. One of the fans himself is recording what they were chanting from the video I have seen. How stupid do you have to be to think you're going to get away with this kind of behavior these days. I hope they get identified and banned for life.
  2. If they don't I'll be very shocked. Prediction engine tech is already making massive strides with medical treatments.
  3. You said that and I immediately thought of this movie
  4. Facebook is now moving to a new name of Meta. And their site is meta.com Have to say it just feels like what Google did with Alphabet years ago.
  5. Well Nintendo don't have any immediate plans for an F-Zero because I think they pushed the last one on the GC and that was quite good. While I'd like to think they'd do something for the Switch because of the sheer fact of its portability I can't see them touching it unless they can do something super innovative. Mario Kart will be what we get for a while.
  6. Thinking of picking up Deathloop today. From what I have seen it looks very interesting mechanics-wise but my only hesitation with games like these just like when i bought GhostRunner is that the gimmick wears off soon. Has anyone on here tried it?

    Came in here to say congrats!! I was with some friends watching this on the night and kudos where its due your team played well.
  8. Yes it does and it closes the story arc for all current 2-D Platform as well. Have you played Fusion?
  9. I just finished it. Quite the ride and probably one of the best gaming experiences for the year I had. Some of the puzzles to get upgrades were challenging but overall I think this entry in the series is very polished and I really couldn't have asked for more except maybe that it was a bit longer.

  11. Couldn't have said it better. I think this attitude surrounding user data and privacy is really what big tech banks on to continue operating the way they do. If you think about it, how many of us actually spend the time going through the security settings on our phones to ensure that we're not inadvertently sharing data we aren't comfortable with? It's all really just about the wording too when you think about it. How bad can sharing location data be with an app that actually uses it, e.g. Google Maps. On the surface its not such a bad idea till you take into account that the same geo-location data is used to generate so much other data related to user habits, etc which we all just shrug off as a necessity to ensure that the services work right. However, I guarantee you that the day Google has to start isolating location data is the day Google Maps dies an untimely death. Either ways I found that tweet rather hilarious in the way he absolved those other companies while targeting just one.
  12. The delusion in this tweet about Big Tech is actually laugh worthy. It doesn't matter which company you talk about they are all using psychology to get you to stay on their platforms or buy more of their products.
  13. I dock it in the TV and play it when I am not on the move because I honestly prefer the controller over the joycons for platformers but like you whenever I am on the move I play it more in mobile mode and probably have played it more in mobile mode since I got it. Nice to see that Nintendo are actually offering free repairs because when mine went to pots I asked the guy at the store what the option was and he said just replace them because even if they repair them the drift can come back. The only good news about all of this is I got some night bright colored ones vs the grey ones that I originally got with my Switch. How far have you gotten in Metroid Dread? I think I am about 70% done now.
  14. Joycons are notorious for stick drift. They need replacements ever so often. I bought a set from JP when it first launched and I thought they'd last but sadly they didnt and since then I have had them replaced. The good news is that I ditched my joycons and use my Pro controller for most of my gaming now.
  15. The first time I "countered" one I was so excited I just stood around it to see if i I could hit it. Lo and behold it came back and then ... well ... I got sent back to the start of the door. All in all I think its nice that you have to sneak around a bit even if the tools to sneak are pretty horrible sometimes.
  16. https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2021/10/metroid-dread-developer-leaves-names-out-of-credits-ex-staffers-say/ If you did work on something for a considerable amount of time you deserve to have your name on the credits. While it may seem trite to the regular gamer its very useful in the industry for landing new jobs, etc. I can't see why MercurySteam wouldn't put the names of those artists/devs in the end-credits. This is also a big of strong-arming which forces employees to stick around till a project is done even if the work conditions are bad because hey you wont get any credit if you don't. Bit silly this practice.
  17. Did you also do the shoelace-tie-shakedown?
  18. If you own a Switch this is imo a must buy just because it has all the elements required to be engaging enough as a game and good to carry around from a portability standpoint as well.
  19. If you play any 1v1 FGC games I highly recommend this video if you're online and playing competitively. The amount of knowledge in this short video is ridiculous. Now, the only problem is execution and that just comes with time and practice. P.S. It's also very good for winding up friends when they play Guilty Gear or SF with you haha.
  20. Thought the Prime games were actually quite good especially the second one although I do agree that whenever I think of a Metroid game I always think of a side-scroll platformer which this is. This makes me wonder if Nintendo has plans for an F-Zero for the Switch.
  21. https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2021/10/09/1041867593/drone-photo-award-winners-capture-a-dizzyingly-fantastic-view-of-the-world Some of the pics are stunning.
  22. Yeah the biggest gripe in all the reviews is that the music is horrible but honestly i cant see it yet.
