[alt text: a screenshot from an app for an airline service, which appears to be showing part of an airliner seating chart. There is a pop-up that says, "Ready to eject Lynda? This action cannot be undone. Flight attendants will eject Lynda from the plane mid-flight. Don't worry, your arrival time will not be impacted." The pop-up has a large blue button that says, "Eject Lynda - $2,703.50". Fine print text below the button says, "Lynda will be able to counter your ejection bid. View Terms"

There was a leak or something a couple days ago, about a conversation they had had internally where they were considering retooling to F2P.

I did not know this one was so close to release! I am glad to see that it is awesome, and now I don't want to know anything else about the game because I want to be surprised!

It's an edit of an old headline. The servers are still shutdown.

well yeah, but that's only because the slow death of "generations" will be complete by then. We already have a large swath of casual and/or younger gamers that are still gaming on PS4 because PS5 is too expensive and all the games work fine on PS4. Bump that forward by a generation, and what would you expect to happen? I don't think it's all that wild to expect that for the majority of the PS6's lifespan, 100% of games will also come out on PS5. Hell, I'd bet even low-budget and indies continue to come out on PS4! It'll be like phones - the PS6 is there for the people that want to pay out the nose for the bleeding edge, and the PS5 and Pro will still be there for everyone else that wants a console gaming experience. And all those kids playing fortnite and minecraft? They'll still be playing that on their childhood PS4.

there's a reason the announcer does that very pronounced pause between "Duck" and "Hunt"

that's pretty much it. if you don't like the first, you probably won't like the second. if you DO like the first, you might prefer the second one. personally i bounced off of both of them around 10-15 hours in, for similar reasons, but I did find the 2nd game a little more exciting.

is this true? (beehaw.org)

Tanooki Mario (comfy man in pajamas), and uhhhh...well i don't really have a Smash main, I like to play all kinds of different styles. Which I guess also fits the question....

For me, the turnoff with movies specifically is the hard time commitment. It's rare that I have 2-3 hours free uninterrupted, and even if I do, I'm more drawn to the activity that I could put down after an hour if I really wanted to. Also, I'm usually picking up a game or TV show that I've already started, so I'm jumping into a story that I'm already invested in, rather than starting a whole new one.

course not. he's an idiot that stumbled into a profitable gig, and then he let it slip through his kiddie-diddlin' little fingers.
