I downloaded Forza on PC on Game Pass. It looks great, but GT definitely looks better in most situations. I have a gray Mustang in real life, and I couldn’t quite get the paint to match. I feel like GT does a better job in that regard as well.
Assume that the future can change based on your actions, so any historical information that you bring along with you from the intervening 25 years may quickly drift out of the new realities history....
Then devs better make a game that people don’t want to resell. Go look at used copies of Nintendo games. Heck, their games are so good, people will pay for them multiple times.
This is why I’m not happy with there being so many remakes. Remakes are awesome, if it also means we are getting a totally new game as well. Nintendo seems to do this the best. New Mario’s, remakes of Zelda games, new Zelda games, etc.
I do wish they would make a sequel to Mario RPG or make an actual Paper Mario RPG like the first two were.
Perhaps the designer had no clue the face had been changed. Seems more like he doesn’t want to admit that he didn’t realize the face had been altered. They hold tons of these events and there are so many models wearing many different outfits. Maybe he just recognized the dress and shared.

People suck dude. It’s bumble, she has to message first. Then she blew him off. At that point it’s less about the date and more about finding out why. My best guess would be that she also messaged another guy she liked more and he finally responded, so she cancelled the date with this other guy, but didn’t want to tell him no in case this dude fell through.
He was second choice. Or third. I’m just glad I’m married, and NOT to an American born woman. Foreign women are way better.
Game dev companies got lazy. Instead of DLSS and FSR being really great tools for older GPUs to run newer games, it became a crutch for brand new $900 GPUs to run newer games.
Don’t get me wrong, DLSS and FSR are awesome and I use them to get games to run well at 4K with my 3070 Ti, it’s just a shame so many devs are abusing it.
This is the most crybaby thing to complain about. Reminds me of the reviews on Steam that are “I do not recommend” (this player has 3,432 hours logged)
I would’ve been one, but I read the reviews and realized it would not be a game I would be interested in and never downloaded on game pass. Cities Skylines II is what I’m looking forward to.
Game Pass is awesome. Back when I was a kid, you rented a game for a weekend and it cost you like $8. Now for around that price you rent a hundred games for a month.
Game Pass is just streaming for video games. It works and lets me try out so many games that I would never have spend money on, but ended up liking a lot of them.

I’m guessing January announcement and releases in April. Makes me wonder what games will be day one release? Metroid, a 3D Super Mario, but surely not a Zelda game. Unless it’s a remake of a game.
I mean, I wouldn’t upgrade from my 12 Pro Max, but the battery life alone makes it superior to all previous iterations. I wonder when we will hit a wall on transistor size. It’s gotta be close! Cross talk is already an issue.

The successor to Nintendo Switch named Switch 2 will continue to be a hybrid console that can be played on TV and in portable mode, it will be launched without an OLED screen (it will have an LCD) and it will have cartridges/cards for physical games , according to various sources. Anonymous to VGC, where they say that the device...
The people here really don’t understand Nintendo. They want the console to be as cheap as possible to get it to the most hands as possible and then make the real money on the games. Mom and dad see the price tag isn’t too bad and pull the trigger. Everything has a cost, including an OLED screen Vs LCD (presumably IPS).
Exactly. It’s like when you start an RPG game where you choose how many points to put into each category. If Nintendo has $300 and puts most into CPU/GPU and not as much into screen, then I’m gonna be super happy. People forget that when the OLED switch came out, the other components were cheaper to buy, making room in the budget for the OLED screen.
When components for the Switch 2 get discounted for Nintendo to buy, then they will add an OLED screen.
Federal labor officials say the McDonald’s franchise that controls 12 restaurants in metro New Orleans violated child labor laws and has hired more than 80 minors in two states.
Yes, and the sad part is that almost no one will have the guts to boycott these 12 stores. I know it’s not the customer’s fault the penalty is so small, but it’s almost like people in power could be found to have murdered families and children and people would still buy their stuff.
