Oh yeah, my first comment about it on Discord was something along the lines of "I like how the new Uncharted stars Definitely Not Lara Croft".
-
I'm amazed this topic never really got much discussion of the new Hitman. Anyway, Io is now an independent studio, and they retain full control of the Hitman IP. Yay! Hopefully this means we'll be able to get a Season 2, especially since episodic games are one of the easier kinds of games for independent studios to finance.

Oh, yeesh, that's bad. *Edit - If Laura's description of events is correct, then I can see how they ended up where they were. According to her she was cast as the character before the character was designed, she was just an intelligent, strong-willed, South African woman at that point. Then after she was cast and they'd begun rehearsing the character designers came up with the current design for the character, with her being black. So then they were faced with either fire the voice actor, redesign the character to be white (and thus lose a strong character of color), or go forward with it. I can see how none of those options are particularly appealing. Sounds like they need to change something about the process to try to prevent something like that happening again.

Saw what? As far as her voice being distinctive, I haven't played an Uncharted game in probably 5 years. And Dean is correct that I haven't seen Stargate (well, not more than a couple episodes infinity years ago) or Farscape.

I believe we've settled on OG Xbox. Which is dumb, but there you go, Xbone really fucked the naming.

The way I look at it, if you're a politician and hold religious views (or really any moral views) I find morally problematic then there are two options: either you will, based on those views, act in ways I don't want, so I don't want you in office, or you lack the moral conviction to stick to your beliefs, so I don't want you in office.

20/15 corrected, so slightly better than "normal". My TV actually isn't HDR (I got it before that was much of a thing) so that's not a factor. When I said the difference was comparable to the 720p/1080p difference from the same distance I meant that to downplay the difference: I can hardly tell a difference between those two resolutions from that distance either if I'm not specifically looking for it.
-
Even from my couch (about 10 feet away, with a 55 inch screen) it is noticeably better than 1080p, but it's not mind blowing. It's comparable to the difference between 1080p and 720p from the same distance.

Content-based is bad, viewpoint based is almost never okay (I can't think of a situation where it's okay but I don't like to talk in absolutes). So there are situations where the government might say "we're not going to allow this sort of content", like for instance a public facility saying they won't rent space to anyone discussing abortion or whatever, and that might be okay even though it's based on the content of the speech. What the government absolutely cannot do is say "we'll rent space to anti-abortion people, but not pro-abortion people" because that's based on the viewpoint of the speech, not just the type of content. Trump's blocking of people is almost certainly viewpoint-based (I can't imagine he's blocking people who agree with him) which is the most suspect type of restriction there is.

Not interested enough to buy a console just for that game, no.
-
This is false, I am interested in Pokemon and don't own a 3DS. I would imagine I am not alone.
-
Frankly I don't understand why they're not doing both. Port Sun/Moon to Switch as either Stars or Eclipse for release this fall, which would be far less work than developing a whole new game, and then also develop a full new A+B entry for Switch.
-
Wolfenstein II and Dishonored DLC was enough from Bethesda for me. I'd probably go: Sony Ubisoft Nintendo MS EA Disclaimer: I didn't watch Devolver or PC Gamer.
-
Not to me, although I know it is to lots of people (I honestly had completely forgotten they even announced it because I care so little).
-
The only exciting news was confirmation of a Pokemon RPG for Switch, but that was just a comment made in passing.
-
Yeah, it's something that would never have crossed my mind, but as soon as it was brought up I was like "you know, maybe they have a point". My worry about the Covfefe Act is that because of the title no one will take it seriously and it will go nowhere.
-
What did Nintendo show that was so amazing?
-
I wouldn't mind them tweaking the noticeability of your assassinations, because I agree there are situations where it should be detected and isn't, but as Thursday said stabbing someone in the neck should kill them, even if it also alerts their friend.
-
Someone on Twitter pointed out that between the BGE2 announcement and now Sony announced and released TLG.
-
I am going to be Robot Gandhi.
-
It's only $10 off here, $50 from $60.
-
As soon as you said that I realized who she was, I just didn't realize it was the same character at first.
-
I picked the right time to get HZD.
-
I mean, I can imagine a good stealth game without automatic takedowns, but that game is not Assassin's Creed.
-
Huh, I came away with the opposite impression, Sony's was the best so far. *Edit - So far this year, I mean.
