Snake-shaped gun that folds up? That’s Stargate SG-1.

That just sounds like torrenting, honestly.

- Comment on "Game preservation only works if people care" As GOG doubles down on its commitment to saving old games, it's asking players "who give a s**t" to support its crusade 2 weeks ago:
If ownership is what you’re worried about, why wouldn’t you already have the installers downloaded and backed up?
- Comment on Xbox CEO Asha Sharma shares her gamertag — what it reveals 2 weeks ago:
Given that Elon Musk is supposed to be in charge of like 6 different companies at once and still manages to find the time to shitpost on Twitter all day, a CEO’s time can’t be that busy.

Can’t imagine anyone actually making a guillotine with such a long blade. It wouldn’t be able to get enough momentum to cleanly cut through in a single motion, which is the entire point of the guillotine. Is that slop?
- Comment on Star Wars: Galactic Racer - Gameplay Trailer 3 weeks ago:
reminiscent of F-Zero
Pretty sure that’s because the guy is literally recycling assets from F-Zero GX. 🤣
- Comment on Star Wars: Galactic Racer - Gameplay Trailer 3 weeks ago:
At least they finally showed more environments than “flat desert junkyard”, and some jumps.
- Comment on Horizon Hunters Gathering - Announcement Trailer | PS5 Games 5 weeks ago:
First that MMO, now this? Couldn’t you have done this slop after Horizon 3?
- Comment on Resident evil 4 Remake: Capcom replaces Denuvo with Russian DRM Enigma 5 weeks ago:
Ghost Trick was originally a DS game, so if you don’t care about HD artwork tracking down the DS version is an option.
- Comment on Games you really want to play, but can't or won't? 5 weeks ago:
Honestly, I kinda want to play Stellar Blade to see if the gooner bait makes up for what I’ve heard about the gameplay, but I’m not gonna shell out actual money for it, especially since it’s got Denuvo.
Also, I know it hasn’t even been announced yet, because Metroid Prime 4 only just came out a couple months ago, but Metroid Prime 5. At this point, it would have to be a Switch 2 game, and I refuse to get one because fuck that game key card shit.

That skill that lets you warp onto a beast and instantly tame it was so fucking amazing.

Apartheid-man’s basically a bubble unto himself.
- Comment on Real talk, which would you rather have: Megaman 12, or Megaman X9? 3 months ago:
I was going to go for ZX3, but an Elf Wars game is an even better suggestion, which is why Capcom will never do it.

The rates are a lie…
- Comment on Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, now on GOG 4 months ago:
Neat. Always happy to see more stuff on GOG, even if it ends up just being a game that I still won’t buy on yet another platform.

Also, that flag would only have been valid for a week in 1889.
- Comment on "I Told Him I Loved Him, Because I Do" - A Tribute To The Late Dead Or Alive Creator Tomonobu Itagaki 4 months ago:
Contextually, “late” doesn’t really work as “not on time”, though? But yeah, the article confirms that Itagaki is dead.

Fucking with the brakes risks getting bystanders involved, though.
- Comment on How they tested video games in the nineties - Spillhistorie.no 5 months ago:
Can confirm, was kid in the 90s. Sadly the reality of working in the industry did not measure up. Same as being a paleontologist, strangely enough.
- Comment on Ubisoft's Saudi-funded Assassin's Creed DLC provokes staff unrest, but the publisher insists partnering with the controversial regime is A-OK 5 months ago:
If you’d like to don your eyepatch and tricorn, a dev build (ie Denuvo-less) of v1.0.6 got leaked last November.

Upvote for using POV correctly.
- Comment on What would stop you from switching to a flip phone (or dumbphone) in 2025? 5 months ago:
I’ve been using a flip phone as my actual phone for a while now. I just find the tactility of being able to flip open the phone to answer, and flip shut the phone to hang up, is so much more satisfying that swiping on a screen. I do have my smartphone because I need WhatsApp and MFA for work related reasons, but I have no desire to be accessible 24/7, so if I’m out and about you can fuck off until I get back.

Fine print at the bottom says it’s footage from Switch 2 version, which there’d be no need to specify if it was an exclusive.
- Comment on Chex Quest 6 months ago:
However, we were pleasantly surprised at how good it was and played it a ton.
That’s because it’s a licensed mod of Doom. Literally, the first level was just the first level of Doom reskinned. I replayed it a few years back, along with 2 and 3 (3 includes a remaster of 1 & 2), and it holds up pretty well.
- Comment on Darksiders 4 | Announcement Teaser 7 months ago:
Calling 3 a soulslike is kinda stretching it, I think. I would say rather that 3 does exploration and upgrades similarly to 1 but has combat that’s more similar to 2. I do think they’re definitely worth getting though.
