Nah, Kotaku had a shit reputation for years before gamergate got shat into existence. Their reporting was sloppy and often wrong, most of them sucked at the games they were reviewing, they spammed out vapid clickbait articles about nothing to farm ad rev. The only reason people respect them now is because they were positioned opposite gamergate, as if two things can’t both suck.
Reading the article, it looks like there was barely any warning, because it was the type of turbulance that is extremely difficult to detect. Additionally, it seems the dead man had his seat belt on; he died of, as far as they can tell, a fear heart attack, as the plane essentially fell off a midair cliff, dropping 1800 meters (6000 feet) in three minutes. That’s over 10 meters (30 feet) a second).
Forget the socks, where do I get a top like that?
Splatoon 1 let you play five different minigames on the wii u pad, including a pretty solid rhythm game, while waiting, nothing else has come close for me
They even mention in the article, just above the cut, that they’re afraid this article will get paywalled lol
And below the cut, that they’re aware of the irony, but surely people who pay for journalism can see why journalism is important, which is like… good point, I guess. Sometimes the system sucks and we have to work with what we have.
What are you talking about? They show the headphone battery being replaced in the same image as the case. It’s a little button cell that hinges out.
Surely they mean entirety as in “the entire monthly player numbers of every game on steam”, not “the quantity of accounts that’ve ever been created”
No, you see, you just get every citizen to pay a little bit into the bridge, and then everyone can use it. Maybe we put some of that money aside and establish a group of people to care for the bridge, upkeep and whatnot. It wouldn’t be fair to just pick them arbitrarily, so we should probably hold some kind of vote. And, well, I guess the money will run out, so maybe we take a little more from everyone every year, just to keep it in good shape
Huh? That sounds like what? Gov–
Oh fuck wait shit i mean DONT TREAD ON ME
Is it confusing? You can go to their page right now and every single game on the list is listed as “Not recommended”.
Does it? The only logo I see is the SBI logo combined with a Metal Gear Solid !
it didn’t say avoid apparently
It originally did, but once someone ran an article on it, people adviced the admin that his current reviews might afoul of steam policies, so they went back and revised all the reviews be neutral statements that SBI was involved, linking a source for each.
However, all the ratings on this curator are negative non-recommends, with SBI involvement as the stated reason. So it’s hard to paint it as just a neutral list.
That said, there’s nothing inherently wrong with that. If you want to avoid a company’s games, that should be allowed.
I mean going to the Switch system settings > Controllers and Sensors > Calibrate Control Sticks
The controller was previously calibrated to its old stick. If you change the stick, you have to recalibrate it.
I don’t know, but I suspect they’d’ve advertised it if that’s the case.
For what it’s worth though, I’ve been using an 8bitdo Pro (the predecessor to the Ultimate) daily since early 2020, including a lot of Splatoon (a game with a lot of holding and mashing of both triggers), and the triggers haven’t gotten the least bit soft or drifty, and (according to the Windows controller config screen, at least) still smoothly pull through the full analogue range. So they’re doing something good, anyway.
It’s USB-C. You can see it in the photos. It can also use the cord to act as a wired controller.
That’s probably true, but I’m not an expert, which is why I just vaguely described it as them wearing out.
Plastic parts grinding down was a separate clause, and is mostly a problem for optical disk sticks; the N64, most notably.
DId you recalibrate it after the swap? That definitely shouldn’t happen.
The solution to stick drift is buying controllers with Hall Effect joysticks; drift is caused by plastic parts literally grinding down and potentiometers wearing out. Hall Effect sticks don’t make contact, so they don’t have this issue. Since you like the Xbox layout, 8BitDo’s Ultimate controller could be a good third-party option for you.
I live in a fishing town, and I used to love crab, until I was adult and it was my turn to prep them. The first time I turned a crab over and saw the bottom, where all its freaky little legs connect, I had a real “oh god this is either a bug or a space alien” moment. I can’t stand crab anymore, just the thought of it makes me feel nauseated. Lobster too. Somehow shrimps are okay, though.

You’re joking, right? Pre-2012, it was one of the most visited sites on the internet and in the top 20 gaming sites. They weren’t some no-name blog. Then after they hired Totilo, their shitty pop-tabloid reporting became so infamous even Forbes had articles about it, well before gamergate was ever a thing. This all used to be sourced info on the wiki page.
