Using an android device to likely telnet/ssh into a unix box elsewhere no longer impresses me. If it was that pregnancy tester, then I’d be impressed…

Hey! As a Canadian, I’m gonna have to… have to… agree.

I can see what they were thinking and what they were going for. The plaid flannel shirt is kind of an unofficial uniform of a certain kind of stereotypical true blue Canadian. A Bob and Doug McKenzie sort of a fella. Google it. But those are just plain atrocious.

I kind of want one.

If the next Xbox has any sort of AI integration or feature set, I think the name will reflect that. It will probably be a boring name like ā€œOneā€ or ā€œSeries,ā€ but they could be cool (as if I’m capable of knowing what’s cool lol) by using a name like ā€œMachā€ - short for machine learning.

Xbox Mach X|S

The double meaning would reference ā€œmachā€ as a unit of measurement to indicate the speed of the console.

https://x.com/Papapishu/status/1737595559110717794?s=20 Been saying this for years. When Sony started to shift to big blockbuster and Sad dad only they started losing me. Gravity Rush and Bloodborne are IMO the best things to come out of the PS4 gen and now Japan Studio is dead. A part of me still wishes that MS as they look to make inroads into Japan talks to a lot of former Japan studio people to work on Xbox games. Maybe Bokeh Game studio after their done with ā€œSlitterheadā€ , put out a spiritual Gravity Rush successor on xbox.

Either way I am glad that stuff like Grounded, Hi Fi Rush and Towerborne are being put out alongside the bigger games at Xbox. Shame Sony lost the plot.

Tom was wrong here, he’s on a medical old indefinitely. Unfit to stand trial, not in medical prison forever.

Same, I honestly find I’m liking the smaller but still high quality stuff as much as the big ones usually. I’m glad Xbox has variety

I love grounded. Its my game of the generation still. A game I had no real interest in. Sometimes those little creative games g oa long way. I feel the same about tower bourne

Watching the news coming out of China and it’s a blood bath. The government there has introduced a bunch of new rules for games published in china:

Tencent is currently down 15% on the news and netease is down 25% all just today

Bad for investors. Good for healthy gaming.

I hate daily login reward. Not the rewards but the idea of login in daily.

They are also banning more stuff like battle passes and basically banning mobile games to a large portion of the population.

Presumably they also want to move all servers to China too so there that.

You guys tried the Tekken 8 demo? It looks bananas.
