I still have a CRT TV I received for Christmas in 2005 and use it to play video games from the PS2/Xbox/GameCube era and earlier.
The games look very good on this TV, and the picture is clear and consistent. They absolutely still have a place on the market today.
Then again, it probably helps that those older games were specifically developed for display on these older CRT TVs.
Not unexpected; it was probably already well into development during the big early 2020s identity politics push.
Expect to see more woke slop like this release into likely 2026 as contracts need to be fulfilled.
It's up to us though to just not buy this crap and make sure everything like this ends up like Concord.
Kudos to the lady that actually stood up that freak and hit him with the pan; that's a certified badass!
I really hope Panera doesn't throw her under the bus and claim she "violated" anything. She handled the situation with bravery and quick thinking.
Astro Bot looks like a very compelling thowback to the glory days of 3D platforming. From what I've seen, it looks like a breath of fresh air in a gaming landscape dominated by live services and microtransactions.
Correct me if I'm wrong; but I haven't seen any woke stuff in it, either. Maybe it's a sign Sony is finally heading in the right direction.
I remember how I used to be adamantly against the Xbox 360 and Wii to a lesser extent during the 7th generation.
I thought that the PS3 looked like the best console that gen because it already had exclusives like Ratchet & Clank Future, Killzone, LittleBigPlanet, and MGS4 among others. I was also hyped for GT5; it looked like that was going to be a dream racing game.
I was very young and far too committed to being "cool", so I thought that if you liked one thing, you had to be against everything else like it. There was no in between, you picked a side and stuck to it; closing yourself off to the others.
I look back upon that time now and realize how short-sighted and silly that way of thinking was. Now that I own many consoles, I have learned to appreciate each manufacturer's strengths and like all of them for different reasons. I now know that there is nothing wrong with say, liking Nintendo for Mario, Zelda, etc; Microsoft for Forza and Halo; and Sony for their respective franchises.
I realized that you can enjoy all the consoles equally and that there is nothing wrong with that. That alone has made this gaming medium so much more exciting and compelling for me.
Point is, I think the idea of a console war is pointless and stupid. I think people that devoted to taking sides like that are missing out on many great experiences that could really connect with them.
Trump has done a great job with exposing the massive human smuggling ring at the Southern U.S. border as well as the way children in particular are victimized by it.
However, pledging to find the 300,000 children criminally neglected by the Biden regime could perhaps win Trump the election, sway fencesitters, and perhaps obstruct the human trafficking globalist gravy train. Alex Jones does a great job mapping out how that could happen in this video.
Share it with everyone you can!
It doesn't even sound like a physical collectible like a diecast ship or keychain that would somewhat justify the high cost. Absurd.
The ironic thing is that the Reddit forums like r/Games and the comment sections for many gaming channels like Angry Joe are almost universally opposed to these greedy monetization tactics. Those communities have millions of followers.
Yet these games somehow still sell and pre-orders come out to a decent total- who's buying this garbage?
And the same people that literally need everything to be about them or else they can't appreciate it.
Why do you think people do this?
I guess I could understand if you spend $110 on something like an Earthbound cartridge, but this game's not even out yet. At best, all one's seen of a game before release are carefully curated videos and screenshots; those aren't guarantees the game will be of a high quality or even be finished.
Maybe I just sound like a dinosaur, but pre order culture just sounds ludicrous to me.
There are some things I disagree with Trump on (namely Operation Warp Speed, but I have a feeling he will come around on that given the RFK team up), but I feel his good points far outweigh those.
It's not about picking the lesser of 2 evils- it's about putting our differences aside so we can realize how much common ground we do have and the belief that someone can get the important things done and at least be open to other ideas.
Trump has shown me he's unquestionably the best person to lead the country. There will never be someone you 100% agree with on everything, but there will always be people you can agree with enough on. That alone will go a long way.
The WEF is seeing their gaslighting and corruption backfire so much that they're just putting their agenda out into the open.
They thought that "penetrating the cabinets" would get people to just go along with slowly being genocided and having all their assets stripped of them, so they want a mass emergency like a pandemic or cyber attack to happen that would immediately force their one world government to be out in place.
It's little more than a false promise of stability and safety. The end goal is just more surveillance and power.
Don't fall for any of their lies. Spread the truth about what these crooked governments (like the Biden regime) will try to your family and friends so that these criminals will have no choice but to back off!
He did publicly say that Pfizer is a literal danger to the world last year; specifically due to the danger of products like the COVID shot.
That has to count for something.
And Poison's Japanese voice in the Street Fighter IV era games and Bayonetta's Japanese voice.
She was an absolute ace in her field. Prayers for her family.
This apt, spot on meme summarizes how the monkeypox scare is totally intentional and counterproductive.
This illigitimate regime is literally hiring a sexually reckless individual to oversee the monkeypox spread and the whole globalist cabal is trying to demonize anyone who's just spreading the truth about how it's spreading among anyone with multiple sexual partners.
Unfortunately, it's mostly spreading among gay men.
If the WHO, CDC, and alphabet agencies were truly concerned about keeping us safe from monkeypox, they'd just tell people not to carelessly have sexual contact with multiple people, not go out if you have a ridiculous amount of sores and lesions on your body, and tell people about how Vitamin C, elderberry, Vitamin D, quercetin and the like are extremely potent remedies.
But they won't. They want a crisis and they want the fear levels to escalate to lockdowns and unethical, unscientific mandates just like COVID.
Don't let them! Say no to any new mandates and tell your friends and family the truth about this made up crisis!
You know what else is funny?
Having guaranteed cures for the disease you're supposed to be scared of blocked from you but illegals actually being recommended and given it!
In this case, hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin.
Don't they still end up getting jailed anyway, even if they apologize?
What about red states with blue governors like Arizona or Kansas?
Kansas' governor is a Communist double agent, but our Senate is mostly red and has generally kept her in line.
I think they took away her emergency powers not too long after the peak COVID fear porn. Our AG Kris Kobach kicks ass too; he has been attempting to investigate the lethality of the clotshots and is suing to block illegal invaders from accessing Obamacare.
They're going for broke and trying to disrupt the 2024 US presidential election and implement their one world totalitarian police state using monkeypox as the catalyst.
They're trying to make it COVID 2.0 and scare people into locking down, masking up, and taking gene therapy poisons over this.
The problem is that it's hard for normal people to get sick from it as it mostly spreads among sexually reckless people.
Apparently you can get it from touching people riddled (absolutely **riddled) with sores and lesions throughout their body. Even then, as long as you're exercising and eating right and not sticking your you know what in everything that moves, you'll be fine. Even if you get it, some combination of Vitamin D, HCQ, Vitamin C, elderberry, ivermectin, and zinc are enough to help you get over it. There is really nothing to worry about.
However, the establishment is salivating at the thought of shutting down society and controlling our transactions and movements over monkeypox. We can't go back to the hell that was 2020-21.
Do not comply with any new mask, vaccine, or lockdown mandates, and tell your friends and family not to believe any of the media's lies about this fear campaign! We have to keep medical tyranny out of this world!
The WHO and UN are little more than a globalist run extortion racket for the Big Pharma companies intended for social control. Most of their money is used for nonsense like 5 star hotels and little, if any of it goes toward actually fighting diseases.
Monkeypox and birdflu are just power grabs for them. There is no actual cause for concern at this point because they're using the same junk, inaccurate PCR tests from COVID to detect these things. They're trying to pump up the numbers so they can fool us into begging for their draconian social controls to save us.
Don't fall for any of the local or national news' propaganda about cases or deaths. Their sponsors are fast food and Big Pharma companies, so they will only cover these diseases in a way that avoids blaming peoples' shitty diets and the toxicity of many Big Pharma products.
Tedros and Bill Gates belong in jail and the UN and WHO need to be disbanded. Do not comply with any medical mandates or lockdowns!
She clearly didn't need much help with that, did she?
Right after Trump got fucking shot too.
They have all the emotional maturity of 6 year olds in 2009 Xbox Live CoD lobbies. Can't believe they have any influence in society.
The globalist criminal cabal is totally desperate to seize total control of the world for themselves.
After failing to kill Trump and overplaying their hand with the illegal immigration worldwide, they're now trying to bring back the COVID tyranny with made up monkeypox and birdflu scares.
There is no actual cause for concern; these pandemics arose very suddenly. As long as you're eating right and exercising, you have nothing to worry about. This is little more than a UN power grab that our crooked politicians are in on so they can get a seat at the executive table; nothing they do to protect us is intended for that.
Don't fall for any of the news' fearmongering over a new pandemic or rising "cases", local or national. The hospitals will all be in on it so they can cash their checks and seize power.
Say NO to any new mask/vaccine mandates, oppose any new lockdowns, and stand up for your God given freedom and autonomy. Keep medical tyranny out of America and do not comply with the globalists' nonsense!
Disgusting. This vindictive, hypocritical, and hateful cultural Marxism can't go away soon enough.
I can't wait for the day that gaming goes back to the culture and philosophy it had in around 2005.
I imagine that translator at least has a valid libel or defamation case on his hands. That behavior by those woke idiots sounds absolutely despicable.
OK; saves me $70.
