Doom 2016 wasn’t exactly generous with ammo limits in the early game, but Eternal was a chore. Here’s 20 enemies, 6 of them are cacodemons that will only die if you lob a shotgun grenade at their mouth. You have 12 shotgun and 50 plasma bullets, the latter enough to kill 1 caco.

But, until that person who can unite gamers appears again, and holds those important and knowledgeable discussions… Influencers will be just that: influencers - not journalists. And be unreliable shills.

Given past events, the more likely outcome is yet another gamergate, where actual criticism of the lack of honesty in games reporting gets drowned in a sea of misogyny, personal attacks and hate based on disinformation

That’s the “tu quoque”, aka “you too” argument evasion

It also lists PSN as a better subscription alternative. You know, from the company that bought Crunchyroll and decided to delete people’s anime purchases, that also deleted purchased games from people’s accounts in 2024 due to a bug, that had two major database breaches…

The site does have a section that mentions alternative games to Nintendo’s, like super tux world and super tux kart, as well as some fan games like Another Metroid 2 Remake

Also no more using pals as gliders. Thanks, Furukawa-fuck

I know that, so do criminals, which is why they either open fake accounts with stolen personal information, or ask someone to “lend” their account, which they use, draw all the money and then pay the account owner. That still leaves a partial trail, but police often has more pressing crimes to investigate

Welcome to Brazil, where crime is 5 steps ahead most of the time

After Nintendo saw how much the Wii succeeded while effectively being a gamecube with motion controls and a DVD drive vs. two “top tier titans”, they never bothered again with being at the forefront of tech, which possibly felt like a homecoming, considering the Famicom was kinda underpowered at release, but cheap to produce.

A PS2 with FreeMCBoot is always a great option. If you can get a phat model and stick a HDD there, you’re golden

You can also jailbreak it, depending on the firmware version

According to this chart, yes, the PS5 is leading by roughly 40 million units compared to the current XSX

'Member when you bought a magazine and got a FREE floppy or CD with a bunch of (shareware/demo) games? I played the same 2 demo maps of Age of Empires to death - the game had 3, but the 3rd one was too hard for youngster me.

I’d fill the whole screen, then use the freestyle cutting and go wild with the mouse, then delete the selection, leaving a weirdly neat 2-color mosaic

Somewhat related, I recall Michael Bell talking about his experience with Soul Reaver, shortly after release. The voice of Raziel couldn’t get past the jump part of the tutorial and just gave up

This is literally one of the most common scenarios in Brazil. The city of Sao Paulo alone had over 103k cell phones stolen in 2023, almost every week on the news there’s a story about someone being forced at gunpoint to make a bank transfer before the criminals flee with the cellphone. In other situations, the victim is taken to a bank agency and the cash is drawn to the daily limit from a ATM (lightning kidnapping as it’s called here)

Be thankful this kind of shit doesn’t happen where you live

Doesn’t your bank need 2 sets of creds to log in? Mine does.

That’s irrelevant when the mugger is holding a gun at you and telling you to input the passwords.

Here’s a better idea: how about NOT making phones such stupidly high value items where thieves can access your bank account, make an instant loan and steal that, too?

Meanwhile, PC players can still buy and play it off steam. Or just pirate it
