The part I was talking about with it affecting the end was that the only way to get the best ending was to have galactic readiness at a certain level, and if you didn't play MP it was impossible to get it high enough. Even worse was that the MP bonus decayed over time.
I already own it on PS3, so it'd be dumb to spend more money to play an inferior streamed version. (I know it's the same version, but the streaming makes it inferior due to latency and compression.)
I liked Killzone 2 fine, but it wasn't great. Killzone 3 I quit probably 2/3 of the way through because I realized I wasn't actually having fun, I was interested in the game world but the encounters were boring. Shadowfall I really liked a lot.
I will freely admit to liking some things that are bad, despite knowing they're bad. What baffles me is when people claim that bad stories are good. Although it's also possible people are saying "I play it for the story" and I take that as "the story is good" when really they mean "I love the story even though it's terrible".
Too bad it comes out 3 days before Zelda. I can't think of a single game that would win that fight for me.
Luckily for Sony hardly anybody owns a Wii U, and I doubt the Switch will be a massive money-suck either.
The judiciary has always been in a tenuous position really, as is the legislature. They're both in a "how many legions does the Pope have?" position if the executive really wants to push it.
Apparently over the weekend the ACLU received $24 million in donations.
To put that in perspective they typically receive approximately $4 million in donations every year.
Good video about how people are so obsessed with the edge cases of self-driving cars ("What will it do if confronted with the choice between running over a baby carriage and a box of kittens?!") that they ignore the fact that tens of thousands of people die every year from car crashes caused by human error.
