  1. So he has STD's, what's the big deal? I'd quite enjoy Sturgeon, Tuna and Deepsea-Cod.
  2. I you were forced to eat an entire watermelon every meal, you'd literally up looking like one.

    Steam Deck

    Digital Foundry have uploaded an brilliantly detailed vidoe going through the spec's of the system better than I can, so here's the video. It looks promising, but not much more so than other handled gaming PC's that are hitting the market, such as the AYA NEO that was been talked about on the forums earlier in the year. I love the combined integration of a traditional gamepad with the dual touchpads of the steam controller, but I'm not sure about the Linux based OS. And really, to get the best out of this system, I think one would have to install windows on it and ignore the cheapest 64GB version altogether. I like the thing, I really do, but I think wiser gamers will wait about a year before jumping in. EDIT: Another big concern about all these handheld PC's is future proofing. The Switch, for example, was able to have seemingly impossibly ports coming it's way because developers themselves took the time to make thier games work with it's hardware. With these handheld PC's it's unlikely that many dev's will take the extra time they need to really eek the best out of ports for devices like this as all they're essentially doing id making a traditional PC game. If a gamer's hardware isn't up to snuff, it's generally "tough luck" on the part of the customer. Valve will have to convince dev's to put that little bit of extra time, toil and, ultimately, cash into making good ports for this device, especially in the years to come, and I just don't see that happening.
  4. I've heard of Pikmin, but never played it. It seams like one of these Nintendo franchises that Nintendo doesn't seem very interested in anymore, so sadly I doubt we'll see a new one on the horizon any time soon. Shame because it's always looked fun if not really my sort of thing.
  5. Final Fantasy XIII, it would give me a chance to shoot Snow in the face. That may no sound like the most noble or righteous of motives on paper, but trust me it is.
  6. Welcome to VGR. I'm sure you'll enjoy it here. If you have a questions just ask.
  7. That's technically still mobile gaming. In terms of software and hardware architecture tablets and smartphones are pretty much the same.
  8. Your right. Internet not being available and the possibility of online services for games getting shut down are very real and justifiable concerns when it comes to digital game's distribution. Sadly, the question is kind irrelevant because there has not been a major PC game or port released on physical media for well over a decade. The format is long since died off. It's one the weaknesses of PC gaming in general. I did a little research on that game you mentioned Skip-Bo Castaway Caper and as far as I can tell the game has trouble running on modern systems because of an incompatibility with 64bit operating systems and hardware. This can, at least in theory, be fixed by running the games using window's compatibility mode.
  9. I'm playing it for the first time on PC (literally right now, but I've beaten Horizon Zero Dawn so many times on console I'm confident enough to say that I'm at least 95% there. There's still ne ideas, new strategies and new ways to look at things, especially since I recently started posting on the game's discord server, but I definitely feel I have way more to teach than to learn at the very least.
  10. Just ran that and it looks like I'll be ok, but given this thing is basically brand new it should be.
  11. I useually get dressed when I go out because when I skip that step people throw garbage at me .
  12. I never expect better from EA and they never fail to meet my expectations. This is horrid without being surprising. Seriously, who continues to buy these games?
  13. Honestly, I do just see this woman as another entitled "Karen". She broke down because she realised that in that moment the world around her didn't exist to serve her. Oh, poor you. That fact that people didn't want to get involved, but more importantly, not get involved on her behalf only irked her more. That's why she tearfully pleaded "don't report me" because she knew she was in the wrong and her delusion of privilege wasn't offering he any comfort. It's also a fair assumption given the words spoken and the tone of the voice of the woman holding the camera phone that she is most likely black, so a further entitlement of "white privilege" is also playing at least a part here. When that didn't work, it's time for the next step in the Karen notebook, play the victim. This obviously was not the case and she knew the evidence said otherwise because she was being filmed. The next part is my favourite. She was literally charging at the woman holding the camera phone demanding she "get away from her" whilst there was a good 20ft, shopping counters and clothes racks separation them. To maintain a distance, all she had was stay fucking still. What was really happening was she putting out that message of "get her away from me" for benefit of everyone watching this unfold to try and solidify the false narrative or her being the victim. I also believe was combined with an effort to take the phone from the victim. Then there's the ultimate "Karen" play, call the police and lie your ass off. People who are genuinely threatened do not behave that way. Nor do people who genuinely mentally ill. This just another entitled, stubborn, bratty and most likely bigoted woman who lost her temper. People who are mentally ill are introverted and vulnerable and are more likely to desperately try to escape these these situations rather than aggravate them. People who are criminally insane are a different matter, that's a very different kind of mentally ill, and this woman is not that either. She was in full control of her actions and knew why she was doing them. I'm not a phycologist so don't take my opinion as fact, but I don't believe for one second that woman was mentally ill and she deserves no sympathy.
  14. I'm not saying that you try to forcefully "convert" people, but it's clear that other people using a controller for FPS games does bother you, and the fact that it does bother you an issue all it's own. I'm just trying to understand why people take such issue with that. On a side note, people who put pineapple on pizza belong in the den of bastards and deserve to die.
  15. If I have leaned one thing today it's that you fuck with chickens!
  16. I can talk and piss people off at the same time.
  17. What concerns me about this is that you even tried to convince your classmate in the first place. Some prefer M/K, some prefer controllers. I use both and and understand the benefits and drawbacks of either setup. What I don't understand is this need of yours (and you're not alone in this bizarre mindset, especially among PC players) to have others use your preferred setup as if it's morally wrong to do otherwise. Let people use what the hell they want. The next chance you get to do the same thing, just leave the other party alone because all you'll succeed in doing making yourself look like a bit of knob. Trust me, I've been on the other side of such treatment often enough to know how I felt about the other person.
  18. To much deeply stupid shit in those movies for me to take them even close to as seriously as they obviously intended, but it's that scene in the woods where the play baseball that really gets me. The say the play in woods in the middle of nowhere so people won't see them "twinkle" in the sunlight and identify them as vampires. There's so much wrong that I'm gonna have to do bullet points; You're playing baseball in the woods, the impracticalities speak for themselves. There are better options for isolated areas for such an activity. The "twinkle" thing has never been a thing to associate with vampires and should never have been. If anyone saw you "twinkle" they would wonder, yes, but not assume you were vampires or even a threat for it. Since these "vampires" in this world, or at least in this group, aren't threatening and thier existence and traits aren't public knowledge, why assume the worst reaction? If being seen "twinkling" during the day is such a concern, why not play at night? As as far as I know the "vampires" in that world can see in the dark, so why take the risk of being out in the day at all? Playing the game, they run like bullets, throw the ball like they've fired it out of a howitzer and jump 50ft into the air to make catches, yet thier concern is about been seeing "twinkling"? I think if people did witness this the "twinkle" would be the least of thier concerns. Edward is obviously trying to impress that bitch Bella. Trust me man, she ain't worth it. And worst of all, THE PLAN DIDN'T EVEN WORK! Because you get confronted by what I believe are called Shape-Shifters at the end of it all, throwing your already twisted, ridiculous logic completely out the window. I know I'm not the demographic for this and never read the books, but those films were stupid as hell to me. This is only one example.
  19. That was a fun list. I've only encountered a few them personally (like Griffon and Middigoron), but alot of the swindlers are fun characters unlike that prick from anthem, so I'm sorry that they're around. I always blackmail Griffon, every time! 😁
  20. The problem with that is technology isn't physically designed to last forever. It will suffer wear and malfunction as time goes on.
  21. Molag Bal's quest is a good shout for an early quest as that is an awesome weapon, especially before you have enchanting and smiting levelled up,
