Yep, it’s the most shameless ad I’ve ever seen built into a video game.

It’s straight up dumb to make the argument that an Nvidia RTX 2060 is more capable than the custom GPU in a PS5.

Not really. An RTX 2060 only has 6GB of VRAM. A PS5 has 16GB of unified memory, so it’s going to potentially have more VRAM to work with.

A 2060 isn’t awful, though. That’s what I’ve got in my nearly 4 year old laptop. It can run pretty much everything, although some of the newer games are probably a little too demanding for it to run on the best settings.

Computers aren’t cheaper though. Hell, you can barely even get a decent GPU for the price of an entire console.

Nobody out there is just buying Nicotine gum for the flavor. The overwhelming majority are struggling with an addiction that may one day kill them.

Also, as a former smoker of over 20 years as well as a current coffee addict, I can tell you from personal experience that there is no comparison between the two. Some substances are simply more addictive than others. Nicotine is one of the worst on the planet.

Until the shareholders demand more.

I’d argue that Baldur’s Gate 3 is the best RPG in at least 20 years. It’s been so long since we’ve had an RPG on its level that I had almost forgotten what it felt like. It makes me feel like the original Fallout games (from Black Isle Studios, not Bethesda) made me feel back in the day.

Honestly, I was surprised to hear that the game forces fast travel. I mean, a small indie company like Hello Games managed to make a procedurally generated universe where you can hop in your ship, fly off the planet, and either cruise through the galaxy or turn on warp speed and leave it all behind. Hell, you can even do it all in VR.

Yet, somehow, Bethesda made a space exploration game that doesn’t really let you explore space.

Of course, this is only what I’ve heard about it. I’ve been way too busy playing Baldur’s Gate 3 to play anything else. But my hype for eventually playing Starfield has dwindled to a solid “meh”. Maybe I’ll play it sometime when I don’t have anything better to do.

It had a decent single player campaign, although it was too short. The live service end game was extremely repetitive and should have never existed.

All they had to do was make a solid single player game, like Insomniac is doing with Spider-Man. Oh well.

That’s one way to tell us that you’re probably not old enough to have played a good number of original NES games without emulator save states. People like to say that Soulslike games are hard, but some of those games were absurdly difficult.

I may give it a try sometime, if I ever get bored of Baldur’s Gate 3. But at 300 hours I’m thinking about another playthrough.

I’m pretty sure that’s really Tom Selleck.

Agreed. The world should never forget what a total piece of shit he is.

The next time there’s an election that the Republicans try to steal, X (formerly Twitter) will now work to back up their lies completely. That’s what’s really happening here.

People who will help him spread election misinformation for Trump’s next attempt at a coup.

Nice try, reincarnating spirit.

I would think a lot of laptops would have a way to add storage, just not necessarily SATA. My 3 year old laptop has 2 M.2 ports and no SATA.

Wait…they finally had sex but it was off-screen? That’s so fucking lame.
