Back in the day before Metal Gear Solid 4 initially launched on PS3, there was a Q&A on IGN that claimed the game ran largely at 60 frames per second with a few dips during explosions. 18 years later, we finally have a version of the game that actually does that! www.ign.com/articles/200...

The UFC trained me to no longer buy their PPVs thanks to their Apex slop over the years and their string of awful PPVs leading up to this, but I caught an unscrupulous feed of the last UFC PPV ever and holy hell was it epic. It brought back vibes of the PPVs of old. What a way to end the ESPN era.

Hi @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social, we're friendly, we've been on each other's shows. We both agree Kirk's murder is horrific. Q: was Kirk "practicing politics in exactly the right way" when he called for me to be deported because he didn't like my Covid views on MSNBC? www.nytimes.com/2025/09/11/o...

I had the original Screamer PC game back in the day. It was definitely a bland "we have Ridge Racer at home", and lacked the refined gameplay mechanics, polished performance, and expert design of the arcade racers of the time (RR, Daytona USA, Sega Rally). This reboot looks meh. youtu.be/yhdoAYi9I6Q

I debated 20 far-far-far-right conservatives (racists? fascists?) on Jubilee's 'Surrounded.' Here are some of the highlights of them unable to answer my basic questions or rebut the simplest of points. Not sure whether to laugh or cry. Here's the full 'debate': www.youtube.com/watch?v=2S-W...

It definitely didn't flop bc Ubi decided to release an unfinished, horribly running game and have trained consumers to wait before buying Ubisoft games until they actually run well bc it tends to coincide with a price drop of the game.... Definitely not that! www.gamereactor.eu/the-star-war...
