One small victory to fend off the cancer that is current year google.
Most of the games I tried worked flawlessly. Some worked better including older games. I only had one game I couldn't get to run out of like 150+.
hackernews has some good discussions and the source is right there. I see it as a bonus, if it was reddit I would feel differently.
Microsoft is a trillion dollar monopolistic anti competitive anti consumer company so once their eyes landed on the gaming space you knew it would result in bad things.
This video pretty much explains most of the ip’s history

tldr it was very successful and lots of kids played it and then greed
If they don’t use anything from GTA 5 in their mod I doubt so but high powered lawyers are scary and you don’t need to even have a valid case to sue someone. It’s the same thing nintendo does it’s their ip so they get their lawyers to send out dmca’s and threats and people cave.
lawyers and 0 ethics or morals
It doesn’t bring back cozy memories from your childhood?
Same iron pineapple is a gem
You can get banned from forums or the game itself by the gamedevs and you can get banned for breaking no rules I don’t see any advantage to such a system. People would literally get baited into arguments in games and end up getting banned because they argued with someones throwaway account or banned by a non involved third party just because they through the argument was toxic even if it wasn’t and wasn’t even directed at them. This is infinitely worse than community servers now you have another layer of useless abstraction with dubious quality removing access to all your games. If only people who harass people with impunity didn’t already get banned in games and were the only people banned in games.
I don’t play on xbox because I don’t support trillion dollar companies who’s founders were friendly with epstein. But I have friends who do and I’ve seen threads on reddit about the subject. I doubt they are trying very hard with the appeal system. Imagine a game banning you for being toxic and then steam banning you from all multiplayer games. Boggles the mind.
Because you argue with someone on xbox live and they report you and you now have a strike, it’s been proven they will strike you over the smallest shit imaginable. Not having social features in X games is shit but okay but no multiplayer?
I’m going to guess most people into half life aren’t going to sink $1000 into computer upgrades and a VR headset.
Think the original campaign was kinda flawed/janky but they do include a remastered version of it along with a new campaign. So I would say it’s worth a look.
For unity, it’s becoming a you are the product type of deal oh and trend chasing.
Probably because normal people not that into gaming news and culture play those games and they kinda force you to play them too. It’s your job to steer them to deep rock galatic and indie gaming in general.
If someone is bored they will just move to the next most dopaminergic activity, I would know I stopped playing all games one year at university and all I managed to do is read a bunch of books namely 2000 chapter Chinese xianxia novels. Me deciding to purely grind schoolwork was the thing that actually had any impact.
I believe they also wanted to sell classes but had cancel that plan after outrage.
There are xbox 360 emulators for the steam deck if you really need to play this game on a switch (don’t know why you would tbh)
Really gitlab went down the niche client path and no longer is a non Microsoft alternative? Sadge, at least I know about codeberg now.
