Yeah, like I said, in THIS INSTANCE, with no context or explainer, it sucks. But imagine if that diner robbery had commentary instead, and someone explaining what all the variables and code flashing by on the screen meant, it would be amazing. Read more

One of my all-time faves Read more

they’d already fucked a lot of the numbering up with 0 though, making 7 actually the 8th game, etc. god, what a mess haha.  Read more

The original was later ported to phones, so I’m not sure if the fancier animation on display here is from that version, or if its new to this one Read more

i am deeply upset by this

yeah, it’s a brutal catch 22 Read more

I hope I got the point across that this is essentially the exact same game as the others, and still has some very cool stuff (the background illustrations are BEAUTIFUL), I just hate the license so much haha. Read more

i mean I said it in the post, it’s “time and not having EA forcing the release of an unready game to meet an arbitrary timeline” Read more

but that’s never been the case. every game has always had some maps that skew more towards vehicle combat, and others that are designed more for infantry. one has never truly excluded the other, ala CoD, but they’ve definitely had shifting focuses. Read more

Well, this was sold as an infantry-heavy map, so it makes sense there are less vehicles. There’s not much room for them as it is! Read more

It’s incredible to me that they said for so long they can’t stop providing service because that would be political, then eventually decide things got a little too political and so stopped providing the service. Read more

I get that things are tough now, but....this is such a bad look. Read more

This is an incredibly common thing for executives and senior management staff. Read more

they’re recreating a 2003 video game, not re-telling shakespeare Read more

With Lord of the Rings and Game of Thrones licenses out there, they seem MUCH better fits for the game than something sci-fi.  Read more

right? its slicker AND more informative than 90% of actual game trailers Read more

I think the thing that surprised me the most is that, yes, they are VERY clean. Like you would want a pair even if you knew nothing about the FGC and just wanted some nice AF1s. Makes me wonder how many went home from outlet centres to kids who just thought they looked cool.  Read more

bravo Read more

Thanks, in my own head I use “board games” as shorthand for everything but that’s just me, so I’ll make that clearer! Read more

It’s a typo, other reports are saying 2019, and 9 is right next to 0 on the keyboard.... Read more
