We'll have to agree to disagree. I think FFVIIR is a new game. It's more of an adaptation of the original game. To me, it would be like saying, "don't make books into movies anymore. Make new stories." I think there's room for both.

This seems like it would be a great argument against remaster, but a remake is a new game. It's just based on an old one. I love FFVII Remake. It is a take on the original, but it's a modern game.

I'm confused by the sequence of events. The wife says she was calling for him after it was over, but the machine was clearly still on.

As soon as I started hearing the Mario Odyssey comparisons, my excitement for this game went way up.

I don't think they're pretending. It's not just the immigrant part. Somehow, kindness has become political and they are offended by the idea that someone would ask them to be kind.

It's straight-up weird that this seems normal to them. Of course, you should be able to publicly disagree with and even criticize a president even if you support them.

In fairness, I don't think anyone on the left is really pushing for him to be redeemed. He's still an obnoxious, incredibly racist twerp who is wrong on most issues. He just happens to be right on this one narrow issue.

Yeah, charging for that guide game seemed a very odd choice to me. And $450 is kore than I was expecting.

The people who were downplaying this were always nuts. He's been saying it since his first term. He used to say that he got another term because Obama cheated, by which he means the Russia investigation. He means it. He has always meant it.

But they generally lose money or just break even on selling consoles. They make money by selling games and through Game Pass subs. But if you buy it and then buy games through Steam, they would lose money.

I don't understand how they make money if the Steam store is on Xbox consoles. It would be all on Game Pass.
As much as we talk about Game Pass now, Microsoft is still selling a ton of games and DLC through their store. Letting another store into their ecosystem is giving up a lot of money.

They were up to $10 a dozen here a week or two ago, so I'm skeptical that they've dropped that far.

Oh. That makes a lot of sense. Thank you!

I don't understand the reason for the lie here. Elon is out there actively taking credit for it. I doubt most people even know he's not technically in charge.

this is the US, and there is no political will to take 2 million Palestinians, and that's assuming the Israelis don't throw out the ones in the West Bank, making it 5 million.

The complete lack of morality in this argument bothers me, but so does the more practical aspect. No one is going to take them. And if you look at the countries we want to take them, they aren't serious options. The best country to take them, the one that has the resources and responsibility in 1/2

I'm not a lawyer or constitutional expert, so maybe I'm confused, but how is it not wildly illegal to deport US citizens?

This makes her sound even worse. You are supposed to be awake and actively paying attention when self-driving is on. Even if she isn't falling asleep, if she's resting and not aware of what her CT is doing, she is putting everyone on the road in danger.

I know this isn't the important part, but he thinks the entire country of Canada would become one state? Wouldn't you make it multiple states?

Agreed. After the election, I needed time to just not pay attention to politics because it was too awful. Now I've come back. I really don't think it hurt anything that I checked out for a few months. I know a lot of people still checked out, but I'm sure they'll be back before the midterms.

I'm torn on the price. I think that when they started making it, $350 was the goal, but then we had the inflation crisis, and the $300 that Switch launched at is $388 today. So I wonder if it'll be $400.
As for the rest, early June and Mario Kart.
