All this current discover Apple blocking #Fortnite on IOS, yet the game isn’t on Google play on a dedicated Android handheld like the LG GCloud?

Funny how there zero bitching about that??

#AssassinsCreedShadows

What a game, but of those 111hrs had far too many of them waiting for the time of day and seasons to update!!

The change season toggle literally only worked once in my entire playthrough!!!

Fantastic game, but UbiSoft need to respect players time a bit more.

So #DoomTheDarkAges is still the annoying active kill for ammo etc?

Easy skip then as the last to I got very bored with that very quickly.

Oh I miss Doom being about keycards and ammo picks ups.

The rotating chair is now a co owner!

Well done to the whole crew in getting #GiantBomb independent.

How is a Mafia game looking more like what I wanted from Indiana Jones than what Indiana Jones actually gave us???
Mafia: The Old Country is a "focused" experience that doesn't "require massive time commitments", for £45 www.eurogamer.net/mafia-the-ol...

So where are the #GearsofWar memes about the
360 version to the
Enhanced back compat update to
Xbone remaster to the new
Remaster of the Remaster?

It’s officially as milked as The Last of Us being remastered now.

Wow, so I have a rare lazy Sunday morning on my own today so was contemplating getting out and seeing #Thunderbolts*

BUT after a bus ticket it’s £20 to watch a movie!!! on my own and without any snacks etc plus that ignores the time commitment sprinkled on top.

Nintendos Virtual Game Cards are the final form of what Xbox tried pulling in 2013

These things restrict you back to the way we were with cart only titles

Nintendo is also the only fucking company that will limit you to 1 save per console and not give you each account on their their own save file

I would have settled for Switch 2 but Ridge Racer feels at home on PlayStation, so now I’m very happy.

Wow so officially, thanks to virtual game cards in home playing together on games like Animal Crossing is dead.

The only silver lining is my Mrs can still play my purchase on her account.

But all her items stashed in my island as she rebooted her island are lost forever.

@a34k.bsky.social

What an excellent amalgamation of the theatrical and assembly cuts of #Alien3

The re-comp work on the effects is absolutely stellar

Only complaint is the audio was slightly off but a +150ms audio offset in PLEX got it back in line

Again wow, amazing work #A34K

The global markets seriously need to drop the $ as the metric for all other currencies, just centralise around the euro.

That PLANK getting into power twice is fucking up the cost of goods globally and it’s going to get a lot worse.

Watched 2 movie yesterday,

Mickey 17 - an excellent flick give it a go.

The Crow (2024) - reviews on release panned this but I enjoyed it, yes it isn’t the original it just does it’s own thing, more gory too which wasn’t really needed but light years ahead of the awful sequels.

Oops just got me a #Switch2 preorder placed.

#PlayStation gamers so on a whim I thought it would be fun to revisit the PS3, and wow do modern OLED display make this thing sing!

I was expecting muddy images but my OLED is upscaling these games beautifully, the PS3 never looked this good back in 2006.

Dug out my #PlayStation3 ……man I’ve missed this console.

Seeing the US get angry over the Switch 2 when you should have gotten angry over women’s rights, deportations, healthcare and allowing that idiot and his South African lackey take over is insane.

Use your current angry and start doing something about it.

So #Switch2 must have an EGPU in the dock, this is going to be so fucking expensive!!!
April 2, 2025 at 2:05 PM
My expectations for #Switch2 today are simple steady 1080p with better than Switch 1 performance.

Maybe finally embracing some AA.

No gimmicks, this thing is still la handheld (use a mouse on your thigh? No thanks)

So what was the reason #DragonAgeTheVeilguard failed with fans of that genre?

Seems alright to me?? And this isn’t even a Rob game?

A little #DonkeyKong94 over my lunch break, still one hell of a game.
