- Comment on EA reportedly to be sold off for "roughly $50 billion" to go private 3 weeks ago:
Oh yeah, that was definitely the sound on the demo! Wow, quite the nostalgia hit there. I can’t find a video of the Def Jam 2 version. I’ll have to make one later.
- Comment on EA reportedly to be sold off for "roughly $50 billion" to go private 3 weeks ago:
Reminds me of when I had a demo disc for Def Jam: Fight for NY. The demon loaded up with a girl’s voice saying “E. A. It’s in the game.” When I bought the full game there was a huge surprise when the girl grew up and a very deep male voice was used instead.
I miss the old EA. Ain’t going to support whatever it is it has turned into.
- Comment on Nintendo Doubles Down on Palworld vs Pokémon Patent Lawsuit ‘Mods Don’t Count as Real Games’ 4 weeks ago:
Man, how did I not know that? I was mostly thinking of the Duke Nukem line: “I ain’t afraid of no Quake” when coming up with games that clearly use the same mechanics but didn’t go around suing each other. And Duke Nukem 3D was obviously based on the FPS games that came before.
- Comment on Nintendo Doubles Down on Palworld vs Pokémon Patent Lawsuit ‘Mods Don’t Count as Real Games’ 4 weeks ago:
It’s so stupid too. Imagine if there was this fight when Doom came out suing Duke Nukem 3D and Quake. The industry thrives on iteration.

- Comment on Balatro Dev Calls Out PEGI For "Real Gambling" Rating Hypocrisy Vs. EA Sports FC 10 months ago:
Those at least say what they are. Bink will say it’s a video encoder. I just remember a voice saying “PEGI 18” but no other stuff about what that meant so I thought it was a publisher.
- Comment on Balatro Dev Calls Out PEGI For "Real Gambling" Rating Hypocrisy Vs. EA Sports FC 10 months ago:
Oh shit, I thought PEGI 18 was a game publisher. It seemed like their start screen logo was on all the best stuff.

Will arrive in 2025. Fucking title made it sound like it was available now for a moment.

If you use an adapter at each end, each one with additional power requirements, how much extra power are we using for the sake of convenience?
I’ve used these and was pretty happy with them, but I’ve always wondered about this.
