If you’re just talking about number of copies sold, using the term “best” is confusing
- Comment on GTA V was released on this day, 12 years ago 4 days ago:
I’m out of the loop with GTA VI, but the last I knew of it the only thing they’d released was a cinematic, non-gameplay trailer. Have they released gameplay now?
- Comment on 'My Advice to Users Is to Accept Reality and Tune, or to Not Play' — Randy Pitchford Is at the 'Get a Refund From Steam' Stage of the Borderlands 4 PC Performance Backlash 5 days ago:
We’ll see how it comes out in the sales figures, I suppose! I would like to believe you’re right but I just have absolutely not a jot of faith that people will stick to their outrage. 😂

Not casting aspersions towards you personally, but we all know how gamer boycotts go generally. As in, they don’t. People cave and buy the games anyway, once they’re over the initial outrage. This is 100% marketing.

I have come to accept that this is a PR campaign to plaster the name everywhere all over social media and let it worm its way into currently pissed off gamers’ heads for a few months down the line when they’ve calmed down and inevitably buy the fucking thing.
Pitchford is a slimeball. Rarely has a man who is allegedly not an insurance or used-car salesman given off such nakedly scummy vibes.
We need to stop giving free publicity to this little marketing man, and to this poorly optimised, expensive game.

- Comment on Bosses can reject applicants who support rival football team to existing staff, judge says 1 week ago:
I guess an argument could be that not drinking is unlikely to cause fights, whereas supporting rival teams, depending on the rivalry in question… There’s a lot of potential for tension

Jesus, she has to buy three pairs of shoes at a time? That’s gonna be expensive.
- Comment on The new man overseeing Britain’s arms exports is vice-chair of Labour Friends of Israel 1 week ago:
Holy shit. How is this guy not in jail? You can’t just order raids on people for disagreeing with you. Without even getting into whether she was right or wrong to be against those arms sales (she was right), her opinion is not unlawful and she didn’t do anything illegal or threatening in communicating it. She did what she is apparently meant to do as a responsible citizen; express her opinion to her local MP.
That’s terrorism. This man is a terrorist. He’s sending dawn raids into people’s homes for disagreeing with him. How does he still have a job in parliament?? What the fuck??

- Comment on UK phone retailers lock shop doors while trading to tackle rising thefts 2 weeks ago:
Yeah! My last place council tax was £92, granted I get 25% off as a sole occupier and all that. My current is £100 a month. Oooh I’d be careful what you wish for, we all know what happened to Birmingham 😂
Ah yeah I was wondering whether it’d be a no-data plan. That’s so cool tho, I’m into that. I would like to go no-data and just be unreachable when I’m wandering but honestly I’m so scatterbrained that I wouldn’t be able to stockpile audiobooks/podcasts/albums enough to last me 😭 good stuff tho, I am jealous!
- Comment on UK phone retailers lock shop doors while trading to tackle rising thefts 2 weeks ago:
Oooh how did you get down to £4? I’m on £6, only 5GB data and I hit the limit every month.
£83 a month on a phone is fucking mental. That’s a council tax payment in some places. That’s more than my gas + electricity.
- Comment on UK phone retailers lock shop doors while trading to tackle rising thefts 2 weeks ago:
Who on earth is paying £1800 minimum for a bloody mobile phone??? That’s insane!
- Comment on I ordered drug-laced vapes on Snapchat. It was as easy as picking up pizza 2 weeks ago:
He has agreed to sell what he claims to be THC vape liquids to a schoolgirl – an illegal substance which is the main psychoactive ingredient in cannabis.
However, we suspect it actually contains spice, a more potent drug that is highly addictive and can cause serious side effects.
Okay, fair play. Just reading the headline alone and the first paragraph, I was thinking that this reporter was a total jobsworth.
But, spice can be a pretty nasty drug, and essentially spiking teenagers with it when they’re just trying to get some weed is real scumbag behaviour.

Some sort of weird bot?
- Comment on Sainsbury’s tests facial recognition technology in effort to tackle shoplifting 2 weeks ago:
Haha, it’s been coming for ages. I’m pretty bored of being treated like some kind of cattle criminal in Sainsbury’s, having to go through their gated self checkout system (because it costs too much to employ a human) and obviously scan my receipt to get out because goodness knows after getting absolutely rinsed on prices I have to prove that I’ve paid too.
Fucking scumbag execs, hope they choke on the profits 👍

Awesome, just in time for my renewal. I wonder how my landlord will phrase the increase this time… “Hi, your tenancy renewal is due. Unfortunately I need to increase the rent a little bit” I reckon.

Well I mean, seriously, have you seen him? Yes, I know it’s a bit of a harsh statement but it really does make me think twice about incest if my sibling-kids might look like him when they get older!

I love this sort of thing! I experienced the reverse lately; I downloaded Diablo 4, closed the blinds, and got drawn into the intro cinematic. Genuinely awesome, moody, atmospheric. I was IN, so ready to play some dark and brooding spooky shit! The cinematic ends…
DLC! BUY OUR COSMETICS! HERE’S A BAJILLION DIABLO CREDIT$$! totally killed the mood. Turns out the game is always-online, even when playing solo, and I was experiencing laggy movement so I just uninstalled. Left a huge bad taste in my mouth.

Holy SHIT I haven’t seen him in ages. Jesus Christ those genes are really starting to catch up to him, really puts me off the idea of incest if that’s what happens to the kids. He looks fucked up. Anyway, you’re welcome for the home Our Royal Scroungers – enjoy! 🫡
