Put an AirTag in it so if you lose it you can track the bastard that stole it.

This man really puts gear through its pace. Nice that you're getting a modeller, its going to really give you so many options.

Been listening to the reissue.

I have the new Kirby game but I refuse to touch it until I am done with Elden Ring which has taken longer than I expected.

I feel like VAR is going to take a few more years to not get better but to be expected as the x-factor in deciding games. The implementations and the rules keep flipping to compliment the faults on either side of the fence and the bigger issue is that just like the way fouls are considered across the globe, VAR is also falling into a similar trap where phrases like "clear and obvious" are more aligned with how a ref wants to see it vs how it is. Having said that, its definitely improving from what it was earlier to what is now.

Nothing new but I have been playing a lot more. Band is back in town so we met up last weekend to chalk out some stuff we want to do and we're back in a room this weekend to try and start things off again. There's a bit of a discussion about doing weddings and I am all for it if we can make it happen.

https://www.theguardian.com/games/2022/may/10/electronic-arts-ditches-fifa-ea-sports-fc Seems like EA wants to do other things. I don't know whether this means they'll have less stats or what will happen to the franchise but its a bold move.

They need help and not the technical kind.

Didn't really know where to post this because I have just spent the last 3 minutes laughing and my eyes are literally tearing but here goes. Three weeks ago as part of an effort to setup machines for a showcase event someone got smart and decided to remote connect our entire showcase network using a single file that basically goes out and updates all the login credentials for the application, does some other fun stuff with storage connectivity, etc. Well, they ran this file and it locked out the entire marketing team and the entire development and testing teams too. And as a result our server ops team was called in. They aren't the most happiest folks in the world but they spent two weeks undoing what this file that took literally 2 mins to do, begrudgingly I might add. Unbeknownst to everyone, the person who was doing the demos for one of the features reached out to the original team that was setting up these boxes for the show and told them she couldn't login. They of course ecstatically jumped up and said wait we have a file that does this. We are one week away from a Trade Show Demo and I am drinking coffee and watching my communication stream explode. Someone is going to lose their job before the end of this week. Side note, they still haven't deleted that file.

Man went solo and cut an EP which isn't too shabby.

Quite like the idea but I am sure Hollywood will ruin it like they have ever other video-game adaptation.

Kudos to the person who took the still and posted her comment. Really drives home the sausage requirement.

Congrats @Harry ! Cute picture

Also, incase anyone missed this. Its literally quite "unreal"

https://kotaku.com/snk-saudi-arabia-mohammed-bin-salman-mbs-king-of-fighte-1848754233 Phew they are about to go full-ham on getting all of SNK. I don't know what that is going to do the studio but if it means axing that horrible King of Fighters game they put out recently then I can stomach this. Oh and since you've got money to burn can we get a new Samurai Showdown please.

As a person that grew up here in the early 80s to late 90s the transformation was unbelievable. When the tower came it literally lit up two blocks in all directions. Crazy what that place was and what it turned into. Dubai on the other hand is the same shit-hole it has always been.

40+ hours in and now I see why folks are rating this game so much. You could be a tank and just miserably fall to your death as you roll away from enemies or my personal favorite, killing a demi-god and dying to a fucking bear in the woods right after.

You know it may just be a driver issue but if that's the case wouldn't the uninstaller have fixed it the first time? very odd behavior.

RMA it that thing has issues. My first one had an issue where if i turned the gain below 50% it just stopped working right and I would get a serious drop in volume. Got a new one and it worked right. These things can be a bit fragile at times.

Its not an amp haha its a bluetooth speak from Marshall - https://www.marshallheadphones.com/in/en/woburn-ii-bluetooth.html

New Witcher game in the works. They've partnered with Epic on this one and its going to use Unreal 5. https://kotaku.com/witcher-a-new-saga-unreal-5-epic-games-cd-projekt-red-1848680592

It's unreal how our eyes start to trick us once we get past 120Hz and even then its hard to distinguish monitor speeds. I use a 240Hz but you realistically could get the same out of a 144Hz which is way cheaper now.
