This is all well and good, but if it's an upgrade rather than a full on new gen console, I have to wonder how much point there will be to it being that powerful when the games are still going to have to run on the OG switch.

If something is packed properly, depending on what it is anyway, tossing it isn't going to break it. When I worked there, we'd get computers coming down the belt and we'd handle them carefully. But they were also packed properly. I agree, they're not supposed to abuse the packages, but the way he was tossing them is something that happens pretty often with packages. People are just dumb to get that uppity about a guy doing something nobody gave a second thought about until they saw this video.

I love how clueless people in that thread are to the fact their packages are thrown, dropped, bumped, and jostled almost the entire time from they time they leave the shipper's hands to the time they arrive, which is why you pack them with bubble wrap, packing peanuts, etc. Also, FedEx drivers are paid by the package, or they were when I worked there. So if that guy wastes time setting them all down nicely, he's losing time and money. Dana White should stick to whatever it is he does at his company where humans treat each other worse than the driver treated those packages and stop telling other people how to do their jobs.

Bloodstained Vs and Chaos modes are live on PS, SuXbox and PC. I tried Chaos mode out a bit yesterday and it seems pretty fun. I haven't played this game in ages but I love that they're still bringing out these modes, it really gives you a good reason to keep playing. Would be cool to see the multiplayer aspects take off a bit.

Some guy on Twitter is posting these insane 5Sp clips https://x.com/ebiumino/status/ 1788498484397822256

This is a bummer; Steve was one of my favorite audio engineers (he hated being called a "producer.") Nirvana's 'In Utero' record was the first album I'd say i actually noriced the production and it has stuck with me to this day. There isn't anything else that sounds like it, at least that I've heard. His own music was really cool and interesting too, my favorite being a band he had in, I think, the late 80s called 'Rapeman' (they were named after the manga character lol) that actually sounds like Rage Against The Machine before RATM.

I think your cap secretly loves that you guys hate his cooking. It's probably the best part of the job for him coming to work every day like "What nasty shit am I gonna try to get these bitches to eat today?"

Also, Samurai Taisen was last week, which is a yearly event in Japan where they have tournaments for every SamSho game, even the 3d ones! SamSho5Sp SamSho IV: SamSho 1 Samsho2 SamSho3 SamSho 5 Perfect

SamSho 5 Perfect tourney at Evo Japan. Lots of great players like WAT (who was the semifinal Yunfei player), Piko (who won the tourney), Polimrin, and Hoge the Gaira master. Tourney starts at 7:20:55

The part that cracked me up about that tweet is how eager a lot of PC folk are to lick Valve/Steam's boots. Like peak lack of self awareness

Wait why are they requiring PSN account for a steam game? Either way, I hate this trend of having to sign up for an account to something you wouldn't otherwise have just to play a game. Somebody needs to squash this shit quick.

Believing those people shouldnt get their money back isnt the same as thinking it's ok that Razer did this or saying they should get to keep it. Razer should donate the proceeds and the fine to charity.

I know. I'm just saying that anyone spending $100 on a mask, useful or not, that even at the height of Covid you could get for a few bucks is foolishness and those people do t deserve to get their money back even if what Razer did was bad.

Vs mode sounds fun as hell

I think Razer should be allowed to keep the money. If you can get idiots to fork over $100 for a $3 mask with lights on it, they don't deserve to get that money back.

It's honestly pretty disappointing to me that imagination seems to have been the biggest casualty of the Internet age. Video games give us the opportunity to enter worlds nothing like our own or that transcend ours in a lot of ways and step into the shoes of characters that aren't like us, and yet all some people can do is ask why these worlds aren't more like the real world.

Finally got the Platinum for Sekiro and beat two of the gauntlets. Just have the Shura once left (not sure if I'll end up grinding Mortal Journey yet.) is wild getting to this point after almost quitting the game a few times last year.

Glad to see Ding competing again. I thought he was considering retirement at one point

I got to play in an online 5 Special tournament yesterday, the first I think I've done since 2018 and went 2-2 which isn't bad considering I've only really been back playing the game for about a week now. If anyone plays or wants to even learn the game, I say let's give it a go. I've decided to learn Ukyo, so I'm in noob territory again. I actually started out as an Ukyo "main" when I first started playing (and didn't know what I was doing lol) but gravitated to Amakusa for whatever reason. a I came back deciding to play Kazuki since I play him in 2019 but he's different 5Sp and not as much fun as Ukyo is. Either way, we should get another lobby going sometime soon.

You're right, but the people writing these pieces are overwhelmingly English major/ perpetually online types whose heads have been filled by pseudo-feminist BS who are mining power for themselves by being able to dictate to everyone else, on their terms, the difference between the characters that are "problematic" and the one that are "safe." Bayonetta is beloved by gays, therefore she's safe. Eve is a character that, at least at this point, straight (and particularly white) guys like, so she's "problematic." Anything straight men like is a problem to these types of people, although if the same design appeals to gays or women, then it's fine. The whole thing looks like a big journalistic power grab from where I'm sitting. They're all just saying "it's only a problem if we say it's a problem."

The people "solving" the problem are making boatloads of money, so there's less incentive to actually solve it. It's like all these endless "wars." There's less incentive to try to find a peaceful solution when defense companies stand to make billions from them. Alex Botez was the first person I ever heard called a "chess entertainer." She and her sister are definitely entertaining and both their chesscom bots beat me handily so I have nothing to say lol

You forgot about racing legend Dick Trickle!

Yeah I only actually beat the game once. I started a few other times but never finished them because I just got so bored. It's such a shame because the ID thing was cool and the steal system was actually a really great idea, and the combat isn't too bad, it's just not as flashy as LoI's is. Some of the weapons you get have cool movesets although they aren't DMC levels of deep. The thing that chapped my ass about the game was that there were hallways and rooms with NOTHING In them. No items, no enemies, no set pieces, nothing. It was like they weren't really supposed to be there in the first place and we're added last minute after it was too late to really do anything with them. Trevor mode was kinda cool too, but again, I just never had the gumption to make it all the way through. Lament would have been a top 10 CV game if the level design were fixed though. That game did pretty much everything right except for that.

I had someone on Reddit reply to a 3 year old (!) post I made about emulating Curse of Darkness vs actually buying it because it's not all that good and he couldn't believe I was saying that. He didn't believe that it was a common complaint of the game to have bloated garbage-y levels. That game really is a shame. It had a lot of good things going for it but they took the one complaint everyone has about Lament and made it 10 times worse.

It's been a thing for awhile. SamSho already came and went from the service
