Have to say the voice acting didn't sound that great in the you tube video. And the sound quality is atrocious. Sounds like a 96kbps mp3 from 1998.

@RawShark Yeah, my Vita ended up becoming a Spelunky machine. Its the only game I played on it for about 2 years solid.

If this ever comes out on the Switch, I'll be buying one.

Steam Game Festival delayed, Valve yet to issue statement on Black Lives Matter movement

cs96and

1 year ago

While it seems obvious the delay of the Steam Game Festival is about the ongoing protests across the globe against systemic racism and police brutality sparked by the killing of George Floyd,
Does it? It seems like the two things are completely unrelated to me.

The Outer Worlds is making its text bigger, again

cs96and

2 years ago

@Resurrected-X460 I found this feature a while ago and it has been a life saver! Especially when trying to read the terminals in The Outer Worlds.

The only problem I have is that the scroll increments are quite large, so its difficult to line stuff up in the middle of the screen, and you have to keep scrolling left and right to read stuff.

EA's FIFA community managers have for some time now suffered harassment, verbal abuse and even death threats on social media as the game's toxic community has grown increasingly exacerbated about the state of the game. With the release of FIFA 20, this toxicity was fuelled by issues with the career mode, but it's subsequently come to encompass other aspects of the game as well.
Here's a crazy, radical idea... if the game is crap, stop throwing money at the company that makes it. Shouting and screaming like a 3 year old solves nothing, and just makes you look like a dick.

@swedishfish We are indeed living in the future. Here's a clip from Tomorrow's World in 1989 that predicts what our homes would be like in 2020.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qStTIX86mhE

Some of the stuff is plain weird and frankly stupid, like holding a plug onto a wall instead of putting it in a socket, but it does correctly predict voice automation (i.e. Alexa) and the fact that there will be a massive push to reduce carbon emissions.

Semi-relatedly, here's a bonkers Tomorrow's World clip from from 1971 with a cassette powered sat-nav!
