I'm just concerned about what happens if things start to go really badly for the Russians. Nothing good can come of a nuclear superpower that feels threatened and backed into a corner, either by the enemy or their own populace.

Yeah? Well I say we make him cream his diaper. It's way past time to fight fire with fire. Give them what they seem to crave. The current response is not sufficient.

Sorry, it's important.

Just look what they're doing with their Xbox brand. One of the most well established brands in the most profitable entertainment sector and they are literally setting fire to it in every conceivable direction.

Microsoft must be taking business cues from GRRM... Kill all your main characters.

We seem to be heading in a terrifyingly similar direction

The one that I could never understand was Mitch McConnell.

Additionally, they understand that a fundamental lack of privacy is great for security and ultimately, their wallets.

Not. Fucking. One.

All these "Don't step on snek" motherfuckers are awfully quiet lately. Almost like its the same group of people 🤔

This is so much better than passing common sense gun laws.

This is what we plan to do. Makes no sense to throw all that money away for a silly ceremony where you're bound by what everyone else expects of you. We'd rather do something special for ourselves.

Just thought I could get a discussion thread going. What is everyone playing lately?

I just finished playing Metal Gear Solid Delta, it was great! I decided to play through the series finally after years of watching video essays on the game, and I'm glad I did! I played Metal Gear Solid and Metal Gear Solid 2: Subsistence through emulation (4k HD for the win!) It was a great experience and I can see why the series is so highly venerated. It holds up remarkably well, and the long cut scenes were really enjoyable. I thought it would be annoying, but I actually found myself looking forward to them. Delta was like jumping forward in time 30 years, but still extremely fun. I'm glad they stayed so close to the source material so I could just play the new release instead of booting up Snake Eater through emulation.

Now if I could just play IV without a PS3, that would be awesome. I might have to try emulation on that, but from what I read, the experience isn't great.

Regardless, now I'm replaying Max Payne 3. This game IS SO FREAKING GOOD. I had forgotten how good it is. The noir narration is just amazing. The gameplay is tight as a snare drum. The art style and visuals are still amazing even when compared to modern games. Rockstar really knocked this game out of the park. I still haven't played Max Payne 1 or 2, and maybe I should. Also, I found out that one of the bands I've recently discovered and have been listening to like crazy, Health, did the score for Max Payne 3. The music is fantastic. If you haven't played it, I highly recommend giving it a go.

Other than those games, I plan to play through The Last of Us 1 for the first time soon. Not sure how "retro" it is, but I think it is borderline given the original release date and hardware. Looking forward to trying it for the first time. I've never had Sony consoles, so I've missed out on a ton of first-party Sony games over the years. Trying to make up for that by playing modern PC releases and through emulation.

So yeah, what do ya'll have going on right now? What do you recommend playing and why?

 

This game absolutely blew me away in a number of ways, but above all, the score for this game has been stuck in my head for weeks since completing it.

I can't wait to see what comes next from this ultra-talented studio. Here are some of my favorite tracks from the game. I've used YouTube links rather than Spotify because there are a few songs which they didn't include on the soundtrack which deserve a listen. (Especially the Manor music, that shit slaps!) They said the reason for this is they have "something special planned" for these songs. No idea what that might be yet. Here's hoping for a full 11 minute performance of Une vie à t'aimer!

Here are some of my favorites. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
