  1. PS4 - June 9 Switch - June 11 XBO - June 12 https://blog.us.playstation.com/2020/05/22/meet-the-creator-of-project-warlock-a-tribute-to-fast-paced-90s-shooters/ "Hi, my name is Jakub Cisło and I started working on Project Warlock when I was still in high school. Today, four years later, I would like to invite you to take a look at the journey of how my passion project became a real game — from an idea seeded in my mind by my dad, to a fast-paced, gory shooter debuting on PS4 on June 9. Every FPS fan knows the joy of landing a well-placed shotgun shell in the guts of a demon frantically reaching its claws at you, or the excitement of finding a secret area full of gold and much-needed ammo. Project Warlock is all about recreating that feeling. The passion for annihilating pixelated monsters found its way into my head no doubt thanks to my dad — a true-school gamer through and through. When I was a kid, he showed me such cult-classics as Doom, Hexen, Blood or Heretic, and ever since then they couldn’t leave me alone. Those action-packed mazes filled with enemies and flying bullets sowed the seed that many years later would sprout into Project Warlock — a love letter to the golden age of fast-paced shooters. Inspiration With an unconditional love for pixelated mayhem seated deep in my heart, I started working on Project Warlock while still in high school. Back in 2016 the game was just shaping up, under the name Exitium 3D, which later turned into Cataclysm 3D, and much later given its final title. Working from scratch, with very little experience and 17 years old at the time, I had to learn almost everything as I went, picking up knowledge and tips on the way. Having in mind a well-defined idea of how these games should feel, I went through a long process of fine-tuning in the early stages of development, to recreate the gory and bloody action of my muses. Slowly, but surely, it was starting to resemble the shooters we all know like Duke Nukem 3D and Doom."

  3. This is the first year in a while that they're predicting this much activity this far out, which is saying something considering every season since 2016 has been above normal. Every type of thing they look at -- water temperatures, Saharan dust, African monsoon season, wind shear -- point to a high likelihood of an above normal season. This gives a lot of good info, but don't overthink above normal. Info's right in the press release. "An average hurricane season produces 12 named storms, of which 6 become hurricanes, including 3 major hurricanes." Avg Named Storms: 12 2020 Forecast: 13 - 19 Avg Hurricanes: 6 2020 Forecast: 6 - 10 Avg Major: 3 2020 Forecast: 3 - 6 The most active season was 2005. Avg: 12 2005: 27 Avg Hurricanes: 6 2005: 14 Avg Major: 3 2005: 7 This was the forecast at the time:
  4. Pretty sure since I got a scene with him after. All the summons, all the battles, can't think of anything I missed.
  5. I mean... yeah, lol. Obama wasn't that long ago. 2000 and 2004 were "who sucks less" elections. I don't think Nixon was inspiring either time. Seen as less extreme, I guess? But not an inspirational candidate. And George H W Bush v Dukakis certainly wasn't. It's not as if people were inspired for decades and then it just came to a stop.
  6. Oh my fuck I just beat the gauntlet -- the last battle, 7 stars -- on the Shinra Battle Simulator. What a fucking rush. I didn't die on the last battle but I died a lot on the penultimate one. Beating it felt amazing. That does it for FF7 Remake. Great ride.
  7. I wish I did. Also fuck, I just realized someone posted it in the COVID mega-thread. I can't even keep up with the thread and am often pages and pages behind.
  8. The argument that Norma changed her stance never was relevant anyway (whether something is the right thing to do, constitutional, etc., stands on its own), but this further nips it.
  9. Bankrupt Pier 1 could not find a buyer during the coronavirus pandemic. Now it's asking the bankruptcy court to approve a complete liquidation of the chain. I feel as if I've passed so many of these while driving and honestly didn't even know what the chain was.
  10. This all stemmed from Neil Cavuto warning viewers about hydroxychloroquine. Trump went nuts on him, and that made this even funnier.
