Even MMOs have been run by amateurs. If you make the servers available, someone will figure out how to run it.

Mad Max is WB.

My friend loves quoting a line from that show where HyperScape was uttered in the same breath as games like Call of Duty as a “mega franchise” to try to will its success into existence. That episode is only a few years old, but HyperScape is already shut down forever.

I can’t make you like it if you didn’t enjoy it the first time, but I thought it was a great FPS and RPG that didn’t waste enough time, like its contemporaries might, to become boring. If you gave it a few hours, you’ve probably seen the cut of its jib.

Even when deep discounted to a dollar, I have a hard time calling Due Process pro consumer when it doesn’t let you host the server yourself.

Most profitable per employee is a different metric, and yes, they may very well be that, but that’s not what you said before. Boycotting all of Steam because some of Valve’s games do the thing they don’t like is a tough sell, rather than just not playing or paying into the offending games. I certainly don’t take issue with them taking a cut of every game sold on Steam, given all that they’ve built with those proceeds.

E3 may be dead, but the “E3 walk” lives on! Seriously though, this looks good. I loved that last one.

They shouldn’t, but Valve didn’t invent it, and they’re definitely not the most profitable business in the US.

You might not like my answer, but I haven’t really played new FPS games in years, because basically none of them are doing what I want. I’m well served in basically every other genre right now, but these things are cyclical. We’re just getting through the era of indie FPS games inspired by Doom/Quake and other more maze-like shooters, and we may soon be entering the era where FPS games are inspired by my favorites. My multiplayer these days is usually fighting games, and the only ones that will give you trouble on Linux are Dragon Ball FighterZ and the upcoming 2XKO, both due to anti cheat.

As an aside, I’ll also say that where you put your time shouldn’t matter, if the product is free, for instance, but it does matter in online video games. Your presence in matchmaking is adding value for someone else who might spend money in the game, so you’d still be helping the causes of CS2 and TF2 just by playing on the official servers. For TF2, I think the code just went open source and there’s a revitalization project to bring it back to what it was like at launch? If so, that might be pre-loot-box, and playing that version of the game would help send the message you want to send. The same might apply to old versions of Counter-Strike.

You should not put your time or money into anything doing something that you don’t like in the marketplace, because that’s the only way it changes.

Microsoft is bringing their own games to PlayStation at this point. It’s possible it’s kept off PlayStation, but I doubt it. Team Cherry knows what their game is worth, and that would be a massive buyout.

We already know it’s going to be on Switch 2 and Xbox, including Game Pass day 1. It’s not going to be exclusive, but at the very least, Microsoft paid handsomely for it.

In this case, it counts as a PC, but given that you have to ask the question, I think that speaks volumes.

I think an inheritance should probably last longer than a decade. This is still an arbitrary expiration date that’s bad for the customer.

That inheritance is going to be on a pretty short timespan, since 3DS and Wii U online services and downloads are already gone.
