I’m sure the last few Ubisoft games I got from Steam all installed UPlay before letting me run them anyway…

I’m not buying it because £45 is not a budget price for what feels like an indie game experience. I can wait for a sale on that, or more likely for it to go to PSN Extra. Still got plenty on my backlog.

PS2 achieved a level of dominance we’re unlikely to see again. An enormous leap over the previous generation, and had practically no competition for years. Seeing something like GTA3 for the first time was mind-blowing.

You are gonna be disappointed. I stole it and still wanted a refund.

I’m not out of space yet, but I still deleted it from my Jellyfin server out of principle.

I think it’s the writing above all else that’s a complete embarrassment.

Your own opinion is the only one that matters.

Unless you like Expendables 4. If you liked that you deserve prison.

It’s that necessarily a good thing?

I remember suddenly needing a firewall on my PC back in the days of the Blaster worm.

Do we really want all those crappy IoT devices open on all ports to the general internet?

They’ve captured his weird lumpy face beautifully.

If only they’d carried on with that idea.

That’s all well and good but I don’t want you living in my garden.

Not really, Ubisoft.

Much like music, movies and TV, you just need to make sure your content is both available for purchase for people who don’t want a subscription and consistently available on a subscription service for those that do.

It’s when you start fucking around and taking them off again because somebody else is offering you more for exclusivity that we get pissed off and just pirate things. You can’t expect Assassin’s Creed Black Flag to still be making you a noticeable amount of money, but a subscriber can rightfully expect it to be on your service.

I’m of the opinion that if a game is on a subscription service, be it PSN or Game Pass, then it should stay there except in very extreme circumstances. A game can take weeks to play through, and it’s only going to take one large game going AWOL at 90% completion for me to sour on the whole idea.

Massive Coronary 2024.

The only sane choice.

Gwent.

I didn’t like the standalone version, but the in-game one had just the right level of puzzle to keep me at it.

OK, but that doesn’t make it affordable or relevant.

It’s like comparing a Ferrari and a Lamborghini. It doesn’t matter because the world runs on Toyota Corollas.

Additionally, VR lives and dies on software.

Self checkout is just fine, as long as you have enough of them.

Even better are the handsets you can take around the shop and scan as you go, as nobody wants to really be doing an entire trolley at the self checkout.

I assume it weighs it at the start and knows it’s dry when it weighs the same again.

It doesn’t know what the material is. Some dry quicker than others.

Living like a pauper for a few years and paying the mortgage off early.

Also not joining the rat race, and buying new shiny shit for the sake of it.

Yeah, as somebody with an ever growing pile of apps that stop working every time I upgrade my phone, I wouldn’t count on it.

If somebody doesn’t take it over and rebuild for every pointless Android change, it will eventually disappear.

Is it just a 70% smaller battery?

It was the same on Reddit as well.

PC gamers supposedly everywhere, meanwhile you can barely buy a decent GPU for the price of a PS5.

Oh don’t worry.

The billionaires will make sure the homeless don’t exist soon enough.

Not a cure, but does stop me seeing ads. And frankly of you don’t want anyone to know what you’re watching, you wouldn’t be on Netflix either.

But my point remains that Android TV is still a better legal media player than a PC.
