Are you subbed to the 80s-90s option or to the “surprise me” option?


Bitchin’ song


If you don’t read entertainment news, they have no impact.


Why does Apple even let apps read my phone model and battery level?


Their users will accept this.


Article 5.


“…and now back to my soulless, utterly mid Avatar films that I’ve decided to end my career on.”
Isn’t $700k per year really low for a CEO or high level exec of an extremely visible, important, high-profile firm?


If you’re still on Facebook, you’re probably not aware of what this means or why it’s a bad thing.


Sorry but any article about what internet users are saying about any topic is not real news. It’s not even noteworthy.


Atheist married to a Catholic here: It’s not odd for religious people to share their religious perspective. It’s inextricably part of the fabric of their life and their worldview, and for them it’s relevant to the question OP asked.


Business Insider was founded in 2007.
Limbaugh too, remember him? I barely do but I know it’s good he’s dead.


Yeah it’s a pure GamePass thing, you will never own these games, only rent the option to play them for a flat monthly rate that will keep increasing as the shareholder demands rise.


Then they release Pocket v4 which everyone hates, usage dwindles but they refuse to roll back, and then it finally dies.


I liked Blue Shift a little more than Opposing Force, but it’s so short (4 hours!) that it’s hard to believe it got a standalone release.
They targeted gamers.
Gamers.
We’re a group of people who will sit for hours, days, even weeks on end performing some of the hardest, most mentally demanding tasks. Over, and over, and over all for nothing more than a little digital token saying we did.
We’ll punish our selfs doing things others would consider torture, because we think it’s fun.
We’ll spend most if not all of our free time min maxing the stats of a fictional character all to draw out a single extra point of damage per second.
Many of us have made careers out of doing just these things: slogging through the grind, all day, the same quests over and over, hundreds of times to the point where we know evety little detail such that some have attained such gamer nirvana that they can literally play these games blindfolded.
Do these people have any idea how many controllers have been smashed, systems over heated, disks and carts destroyed 8n frustration? All to latter be referred to as bragging rights?
These people honestly think this is a battle they can win? They take our media? We’re already building a new one without them. They take our devs? Gamers aren’t shy about throwing their money else where, or even making the games our selves. They think calling us racist, mysoginistic, rape apologists is going to change us? We’ve been called worse things by prepubescent 10 year olds with a shitty head set. They picked a fight against a group that’s already grown desensitized to their strategies and methods. Who enjoy the battle of attrition they’ve threatened us with. Who take it as a challange when they tell us we no longer matter. Our obsession with proving we can after being told we can’t is so deeply ingrained from years of dealing with big brothers/sisters and friends laughing at how pathetic we used to be that proving you people wrong has become a very real need; a honed reflex.
Gamers are competative, hard core, by nature. We love a challange. The worst thing you did in all of this was to challange us. You’re not special, you’re not original, you’re not the first; this is just another boss fight.
Or you might find it insanely boring (as I do). I’m not convinced Robert Wise could helm a well-paced movie.
