Gamepass baby. The only ones I can't get working. Have to use third party tool to convert steam input to xinput device.

I however don't bother since I also own an Xbox Elite 2 controller with a wireless adapter that works natively in any gamepass title.

Any workable solution will do. The source code request is to counter the argument that adapting end of life plans are too expensive/make the product finiancially unviable. If you release the source code and leave the community to figure it out themselves, it costs you nothing.

Under the Stop Killing Games proposal, games like Destiny can still be run exactly the way they have been till now, same game, business model, everything. All they would need to do now that they are shutting down the game is to provide source code for the game backend, for the parts that they wrote themselves.

Any third party tool source code cannot be provided, and is not reasonable to ask for, so a working server can't just be spun up, but the rest of the source code will be enough for fans of the game to get a working third party server going for others that want to enjoy Destiny again.

Just publishing the source code with no further support is legit as far as SKG is concerned. That's the bare minimum required to allow people to keep playing the games they paid for. If publishers are looking at this basic request of consumer rights from people, and concluding that it's unreasonable to the level that they can no longer produce these games. Then they shouldn't be making these games.

If that subset of gaming is exesentially tied to the systemtic abuse of consumer rights, then that subset should not exist.

They are one and the same.

Sugar babies are probably more expensive than 500 a month. Although things like this probably depend on a lot of factors.

The article is not talking about the HV bypass for the game. Voices38 released a proper crack for RE9 yesterday.

It helps the people who take the time to create comics we enjoy to eat and survive. These memes/comics are posted as adverts for their skills as much as they are for our enterainment.

We get free funny comics non stop. They get upvotes, people sharing, and exposure in return. That's the deal.

I was really looking forward to that sands of time remake. PSN trphies for that game were uploaded just the other day. The game is basically finished were the last rumors. I have a feeling this is one of those "cancel the game and write off the tax" sort of deals.

Our parliament building has the space for it.

Its funny that the UK threatens the EU with retaliatory tarrifs, while trying to suck up to the US when the US imposed tarrifs on the UK (along with everyone else).

The UK has even less leverage over the EU than they do over the US when it comes to trade. The EU is the UK's largest trading partner by far, it would destroy the UK economy to start a trade war with the EU.

As the steel dirwctor says in the article:

“This is perhaps the biggest crisis the UK steel industry has ever faced,” UK Steel Director-General Gareth Stace said in October. “The government must go all-out to leverage our trading relationship with the European Union to secure UK country quotas or potentially face disaster.”
