Not living in Canada anymore, but when I visit in June they won't get a cent from me.

Controllers in general are also extremely accessible, and expandable for those that might struggle using a tradtional mouse and keyboard.

Just teach them Python and the rest will work itself out.

Is there any ranking of 'most pirated game' tracked by leechers accross to top indexes?

I remember FIFA being the first thing everyone pirated when I lived in the dorms in University.

I would upgrade for a slightly smaller, more battery efficient Steamdeck with an OLED screen. I know that's a lot to ask for, but definitely performance is the least of my concerns.

I would guess also a lot of XBOX players download the game on gamepass, and then never open it - since the there isn't any achievement unlocked prior to the one you get for reaching space, I wonder if there is any other way to tell.

Does this type of mod break with updates, or could you potentially just stay on the version you downloaded and forego any updates? I don't mod much to the point where I've paid for any, but curious the requisite of ongoing subscription for this type of thing.

You'll be taxed 40% and you'll be happy about it.

I mean, at least use someone elses children.

Maybe eventually, but TES has 5 main title games, an MMO and a mobile game. It will take more than one release for Starfield to prove iteself.

I would guess they were assuming the failure is that it's not attracting customers. Nothing wrong with operating at a loss, but you need something to show for it (en excelent product, a healthily growing userbase) -- it's hard to imagine EGS ticking any box with the exclusivity deals they've been getting. Personally I can't recall a single exclusive that they have, other than Fortnite and Ubisoft (which seems to have ended).

The downtown strip of the town I grew up in (about 2hrs from Toronto) is a ghost town. I doubt retailers want to risk starting a lease on a commercial property when in many situations, brick&mortar isn't much of an asset.

Probably doesn't need to be said at this point, but HL2 has such a timeless look that even the original graphics still look great to me.

Perhaps that makes it a great candidate for technology like this, as the underlying assets are fantastic.

As someone who is terrible at turn based CRPGs, I've found the explorer mode to be just perfect for me. I hit a skillwall imediately after fort joy in DOS2 on the easiest setting, so I was really pleasantly surprised.

Definitely seems worth it to keep one rogue in the party just for lockpicking. Seems to save a lot of time.

I would go for PC, simply for the fact that you can get a Quake 2 key for super cheap, and the upgrade is free on PC for existing owners.

Also Xenia Canary is a much better expierience than emulatoing Switch

Especially compared to DOS2, the combat is really engaging IMO.

They remastered the campaign for MW2, but it's unfortunate it didn't recieve the MP component like the COD4 remaster did.

I have enjoyed the 2 new Modern Warfares -- I played Cod-MW3 growing up, but only the campaigns, so MW2019 was my first MP COD, and I had a lot of fun for what it was. Warzone was also the first BR that appealed to me, and I ended up playing a lot of it as well. I'd guess I completed 3-4 battlepasses before I realized I wasn't enjoying myself anymore

I skipped BO3 and Vanguard, but by the time MW2 was coming out last year, I had the apetite to try CoD again, and the campaign was okay (not as good as MW2), and I enjoyed the MP about 2/3s as much as I did MW2019. I had some fun with the extraction game mode, and finished the S1 battlepass, but haven't come back since.

Another MW3 so soon feels like a misstep here. I am curious about the campaign, since it seems like they're mixing some cool setpiece levels from MW2+3, but that's not worth full price to me.

Anyway, just my view as a casual COD player.
