Went into a physical game store (EB games, sepcifically. Owned by gamestop) and was massively disappointed by how few games there were. Relegated to a small corner of the store and one or two "discount" bins out front, and even then you've got a small selection of games. The rest of the store...

Butter on bread disgusts me. I don't know why, i just hate it. Despise it even. I Just don't get the point of putting the butter on it. What does it accomplish? Its not like its adding any substantial flavor because its going to be overpowered by whatever you actually intend to spread on your...

Its monoply, but commununist. Sharing this because I've watched a few times and thought it was entertaining.

https://7news.com.au/business/retail/disney-to-stop-releasing-dvds-and-blu-ray-discs-in-major-change-for-australian-customers--c-11414857.amp And so and end to an era begins. This doesn't come as any surprise to me at all, I completely understand why they'd do it from a financial perspective...

you don't realise how long one hour and 35 minutes is until you have to sit through this slog of film. I don't even really have anything to say about it frankly. It was just an unfunny slog of a film. None of the "jokes" where even that original or funny, it was just more trump, covid and jew...

Elon's purchase of twitter is complete and as expected, those on the left are already crying about it becoming a right-wing shithole. Heaven forbid people are free to voice their opinion. Do i actually expect anything substantial to change? No, not really. Sure, i think the internal moderation...

And at last the Chibnall era is finally over. Twenty-six episodes and five specials of awful, incompetent writing and it's finally over. Of those twenty-six episodes and five specials there was only one, just one, that I'd consider "good". And it's this one. Yes, the final episode is the only...

Picked up the Lord of the rings trilogy awhile ago, but it wasn't till recently i noticed the bizarre page numbering system it has. First book makes sense. Starts on page 1, ends on page 407. But then the second book starts on 413, ends on 744. And then finally the third book starts at 747...

The only streaming service I actually use is Amazon prime for a few reasons. it's cheap, half the price of netflix it has the grand tour (excellent) it has doctor who it has top gear too but you know what i find out today, midway through season 6? It's leaving prime. and not just doctor who...

https://embracer.com/release/embracer-group-enters-into-an-agreement-to-acquire-eidos-crystal-dynamics-and-square-enix-montreal-amongst-other-assets/ With any luck, this means we'll finally get the intended sequel to Deus Ex: Mankind Divided

https://nichegamer.com/microsoft-is-considering-in-game-ads-for-free-to-play-games/ https://nichegamer.com/sony-will-put-advertisements-in-free-to-play-games-rumor/ I really shouldn't be surprised at this point. That being said, i kinda get why they would do it for F2P games since they're...

"I don't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere." Anakin Skywalker And that's Uncharted 3 done and, unlike Resistance 3, I'm actually writing a review for this one, admittedly it's taken me a few days to build the motivation to write this because frankly I really...

The sequel to Drakes Fortune, it was surprisingly good but more or less everything I said about the first game applies to this one. This time round they had more "stealth" sections but describing them as "stealth" sections would be a bit of a stretch. You'll be able to sneak attack maybe one or...

https://www.theverge.com/platform/amp/22910846/sony-bungie-acquisition-playstation-destiny-halo Studios are being eaten up left, right and centre at this rate. Ultimately, none of this is good for us the end user since it just means more exclusives or, at the least timed exclusives. Who's next...

Uncharted: Drakes Fortune was Naughty Dogs first title for the PS3 and was a move towards a more realistic game as opposed to their prior cartoonish game series, Jak & Daxter and Crash Bandicoot, Similar in vein to Insomniacs move from the cartoonish style of Ratchet and Clank to the more bland...

Okay, maybe calling it mediocre might be a bit harsh, but everything i said about Doom (2016) applies here. Guns were fine, but again once I got the super shotgun, that became the go-to gun. Soundtrack was fine, again. Combat was fine but started to get a little tedious by the end, again. Levels...

https://nichegamer.com/baldurs-gate-dark-alliance-pc-version-now-available/ I wasn't aware they even ported it to consoles till just now. Admittedly, that's probably because I don't browse console stores. But it's still neat that it's gotten a re-release, especially considering I've been...

I genuinely do not understand the point of the vaccine passports being rolled out, not just here but seemingly everywhere. What is the point of them? Why do I suddenly need to prove my vaccine status? How is that supposed to protect you and me from covid, especially since you can still catch and...

I picked up a little dongle recently that converts the ps2's standard output to HDMI. Very convenient. The plan was to then run an HDMI cable to one of my monitors and use that to play it, but here is where the problems arise. I have a 32" curved monitor that is my primary one, with HDMI and...

Haven't been paying super close attention to the whole trial, but I've seen enough to know he's not guilty. That and that the prosecution have been comically incompent, which has been far funnier than it should be. "your honour, he didn't shoot me untill I pointed my gun, which I was carrying...

Seriously. Devs and publishers want to print easy money by banking on nostalgia so they'll dig out the corpse of something old but popular and announce a "Remaster/ Definitive Edition" and then shit out a subpar excuse of a remaster. Aside from the Shadows of Colossus remake and maybe one or two...

https://nicchiban.nichegamer.com/monster-girl-encyclopedia-fandom-wiki-to-be-purged/ oh god, oh no. Titties. The absolute travesty, someone think of the children. What a sad state the internet is becoming now. Luckily I already have these in hardback format, but it's just ridiculous that more...

Brought farcry 6 the other day. A physical copy because I like my physical media, but also because I don't like having to download massive games but you know what? I might as well have though. The great thing about discs was that you oculd just put it in the console and go. No download or...

I didn't go into this expecting much, and got pretty much exactly that. The plot was really basic, and unlike the previous movie, lacked any real stakes. The primary A plot focuses on the main mane (heh, get it?) cast figuring out why the unicorns, and subsequently pegasi, lost their magic and...

Ttl:dr, government has mandated masks after the latest outbreak here (thats another post in itself), but it doesn't make sense. Under our current level (because we get freedom levels, yay) If you leave your house you are, and I quote "Legally required to wear a face mask". Okay, no problem. I...
