I adored the first one. Exciting!

Wait, you mean they’ll release a new NBA game next year? Just like they do every year? Amazing.
Yes please! It’s a brilliant game and I will happily buy an updated version.
I agree with the other three, but this is wrong about “narcissists”. “Narcissistic Personality Disorder” is a diagnosis, but calling someone a “narcissist” isn’t. That’s just a description of someone’s personality. It’s much older than the diagnosis, going back to the Greek myth of Narcissus. The diagnosis doesn’t get to co-opt the much older usage.
There was a show at the NYC Fringe Festival, “I can haz cheeseburger, the musical”, that focused on the walrus’s quest to find his bucket. It wasn’t good exactly, but it was very of its moment.
See, I thought it was mildly infuriating because the images aren’t “many types of airplanes”, they’re only a few types of airplanes repeated at different sizes or different angles.
Aspyr! I was a Mac user in an era that was 95% Windows, and Aspyr brought quality games over to our side of the pond. I remember they ported Alpha Centauri in particular, but there were lots of other ones too.
Also Bungie back in that era—they were Mac-exclusive and putting out the amazing Marathon series. I was heartbroken when I saw the trailer for the new “Marathon” game that looks nothing like the originals.
That looks really good! Is it oyster sauce?
UwU I look just like Buddy Holly
O_o and you’re Mary Tyler Moore…
Yes, I’d love that.
Well damn. I loved the original trilogy and I have been saying for ages that I want a remake using modern game design and technology. But based on that website and trailer, I don’t think I’m getting what I wanted. Marathon had a multiplayer mode, yes, but the core was a single player story that made you feel like you were all alone in the world. This looks like not that.
“A Clockwork Orange”, famously, was set in a post-Cold War setting where the West and Russia had grown close, and the who,s thing was written in a dialect that was part English and part Russian. But I agree with the other poster that in general it’s too much work.
This is probably not a terribly helpful answer, but on the iOS side, there is Apple Arcade, which is a huge library of “free” (aka included with the subscription) games that don’t have any ads or microtransactions. If there’s an Android equivalent, just give her that as her app store. You’d spend a set amount per month and keep her away from the predatory business models.
Good on the aunt for recognizing that giving away possessions can be a sign of suicidal ideation. I guess she had been through it herself and understood.
As someone who has lived in three different boroughs in NYC, I am so thrilled by this. I loved the NYC of the first one but didn’t like that it was just Manhattan, when comics Spider-Man lives in Queens and sometimes goes to Brooklyn. Great decision to expand it.
I had shakshuka for dinner tonight too. It was greens-based rather than tomato-based but still delicious.
I just reached down to pet my kitty and he groomed my glasses so I’m on board with this.
How could you do a Red Dead Redemption 3, though? Like, this article is all just “technically, it would be possible and could look nice”, but how could it work from a story point of view? The only thing I could think would be to go even farther back in time, because John Marston’s story is completely done, and we’ve seen as much of Arthur’s story as we need to.
Sweet potato biscuits! I have never tried that but now I want to.
