Do you still have to buy some tier of gamepass to be able to play multiplayer games that you own online?

He is so good at getting subtle facial expression through the prosthetic. Really remarkable.

to this day it’s still exiled on the Xbox 360, not a prime destination for the genre

It’s still ‘exiled’ on not-a-prime-destination-for-the-genre, but it does also run on modern Xbox systems thanks to backward compatibility - with vastly reduced load times and a solid 30fps frame rate.

What temperature are you using?

 

Every day I wake up in the morning, get on the internet and feel increasingly like Batman trapped in an elaborate puzzle room by the Riddler.

Anyone got any recommendations from the books on the list?

It seems like it’s generally accepted that game 3 is the best of this trilogy, and game 2 the worst, but I’m in agreement with @kid4today@feddit.uk - there’s something about the balance of ‘Rise’ that made me like it a bit more than the rest. I hope you like it!

Tomb Raider 2013 is something of a poster-child for ‘ludonarrative dissonance’:

I picked one, but just do any sort of web search for ‘tomb raider ludonarrative dissonance’ and you’ll see a huge number of articles and videos on the topic.

I still loved he game though!

There are two subscription prices - the more expensive one has no ads, the cheaper one has ads.

It seems almost all commenters here are agreeing with the premise that ‘posters [have] to crosspost to both’.

I don’t think this is true. It leads to people subscribed to both having two identical posts with different responses in their feed, which is annoying. Just post to the one that you’re ‘closest’ to, or pick one at random.

Part of beauty of federation is that you can see all the content from multiple places. Cross-posting is not required!

eBay ran for a long time with a ‘buyer beware’ philosophy, requiring you to pay the seller directly, and leaving feedback being the only recourse. The de-facto payment became PayPal, but I remember mailing checks back in the day!
