I'm not too into kicking a man while he's down and I do think some people took it a bit too far.

I wish I could have seen it before it got deleted though

Smokeshows can fire guns, that's the rule.

Take a note. @Nokra contributed to killing the board after the next update.

I'm usually on my iPod now,

I broke mine trying to replace the battery during the pandemic so it's been radio life for me until I can find someone who can fix it.

I flip between the Spanish station and the '80s station so that doesn't help me much.

I want one of these now

Hmm maybe I should reinstall it. Is it cross play? I have it on Playstation.  I wonder what the player count is like. I remember getting paired up with randoms and having a horrible time. People would leave mid game. After 4 or 5 games of that I gave up on it. Honestly don't think I even got past the 1st level because of that. 

Yeah they added crossplay almost exactly a month ago. 👍

As for the rest, of course you'll probably hate it getting paired up with randos. Get a squad together.

Blindness: 7/10

A pandemic breaks out, people have to isolate from the public, the government is kind of shitty. Tell me if you've heard this one before. In the case of the movie Blindness, rather than a disease that stops your breathing the disease is going blind. Early on a man goes blind in rush hour traffic. A good samaritan (that later turns out to be a POS who steals his car) takes him home and then the next day he goes to an eye doctor but after the visit everyone the man has been around goes blind as well. There is a panic and everyone who is infected is thrown into a dilapidated building isolated from the rest of the world. Basically anyone who is not infected is too afraid to help and these people have to fend for themselves and create their own rules. The eye doctor (played by Mark Ruffalo) is there to keep the peace and his wife (played by Julianne Moore) insisted she come with him, even though she was not infected. She was the only one in the whole place who could see. So the film is a character study of sorts of how these people change in the face of adversity, some get better and then some just end up being terrible people.

Now at the time (2008) this film seemed to be very divisive. Like this is totally outrageous! But having lived through this only a couple of years ago, perhaps it was not too far fetched at all. Some people are good during a pandemic and some are downright pieces of shit. Now this movie goes to some dark places so it may be a bit hard to watch for some people. That being said after the COVID-19 thing I WISH it was blindness, that way people might have taken it a bit more seriously. I think my biggest issue with the movie is that there were only subtitles for when the Asian couple spoke Japanese, while that's nice, how about subtitles for the rest of the movie? In any case I don't think Blindness is a bad movie. There are some good performances all around and it's from director Fernando Meirelles who brought us The Constant Gardner and City of God but the movie might be too bleak for some.

Sometimes you get down to stupid words and can't figure out which on it is

I'm not going to get excited about another Aliens game until after its out and been reviewed well. Definitely wasted my money on the last one.

I think Aliens games come down to a personal preference sort of thing, critical reviews are all over the place for them but seem to be better received by other people.

Alien Isolation was actually reviewed pretty poorly but over time people came to love it.

Aliens: Fireteam Elite also had some lukewarm critical reception but I think of the people that played it, they really enjoyed it and the game is still getting updated and better.

Swastika Mountain in Oregon may have a new name soon

Swastika Mountain, located within Oregon's Umpqua National Forest, may get a new name later this year -- partly thanks to one Eugene resident.

Swastika Mountain, located within Oregon's Umpqua National Forest, may get a new name later this year -- partly thanks to one Eugene resident.

"I thought 'this is crazy,'" Joy McClain, 81, said when she saw the mountain's name in a local paper and felt called to action.

"I decided maybe I can't do anything, but I'm going to look into what it takes to change the name of the mountain," McClain said.

Swastika Mountain got its name from the extinct town of Swastika -- which reportedly took its name from the owner of a cattle ranch who would brand his cattle with the symbol, Kerry Tymchuk, the Boyle Family Executive Director of the Oregon Historical Society told CNN.

"This was in the early 1900's, long before the symbol became associated with the Nazis and Hitler," Tymchuk said. The rancher used the symbol because it was a Sanskrit symbol meaning "good luck" or "well-being," he added.

However, after WWII, the mountain name never changed.

"I suspect that if someone had proposed a new name, it would have been changed long ago," Tymchuk said. The mountain is not very well known, he said, and is in the middle of a National Forest and fairly inaccessible.

Weird that he's comparing it to Xcom. I never got that vibe from it. Just more like an isometric shooter if anything.

@legend Says he works in AI and is working on a project he can't ell us about but that sounds exactly what an AI would say 🤔

I thought the funnier part was what came after that line.

Wo Long: How Team Ninja's New Soulslike Differs from Nioh - IGN

WWW.IGN.COM

After making two installments of the Nioh series, Team Ninja decided to go in a new direction with Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty - we found out how it differs.

While the new trailer for Team Ninja’s highly anticipated Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty contains actual gameplay for the first time, there’s still a lot we don’t know about Team Ninja’s new Soulsborne title. Most notably, after making two installments of the Nioh series, the team decided to go in a somewhat new direction - and we wanted to know how it differs.

 

IGN sat down with producer Fumihiko Yasuda and development producer Masaaki Yamagiwa to find out how Wo Long is different from the developer’s popular past series. The most obvious thing that sets Wo Long apart from Team Ninja’s previous efforts is its setting, and it seems that this new location will differentiate Wo Long from Nioh in multiple ways.

 

“Being set in China, we were able to create locations of much greater scale than in Nioh, which was set in Japan,” Yasuda says. “Even something like a castle is much bigger than before, and exploration has become more vertical because the player character in Wo Long can jump,” he adds.

 

Nibel has EA stock confirmed

It’s kind of funny they’re open to the idea yet fought so hard to not be bought out by vivendi.

 

to be fare I’ve heard things drastically improved at gameloft once they were sold by vivendi, yet that also could just be because the BS in leadership was thrown out.

 

And Ubisoft's BS leadership was not in favor of being bought out until all the BS came to the surface  after they staved off the buyout.
