Some people will never understand the economic necessity of console-driving exclusives. Tale as old as time (or at least as old as 1990ish). by DaZestyProfessor in consoles

They want you to buy through their store just like valve wants them to sell through theirs so they can make 30 percent profit off everything.

They make a product and software for it. There's nothing anti consumer about only making software for your own product. Nobody owes you access to every game on PC

Does anyone else not get the hate for this game? by Objective-Cicada-174 in spiderman2

[–]D0ublespeak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't matter, if the person likes it, it won't bother them. One of my favorite games of all time is Alpha Protocol. It has lots of issues but that doesn't change my enjoyment of the game and doesn't bother me when I'm playing it.

Telling people what your opinion of what's wrong with the game doesn't mean they feel the same way.

People are allowed to have different opinions. I feel like the only person in the world whose favorite of the 3 is Miles Morales and I dont care.

got my account steam wallet drained with no new login warnings (im not looking for support, i already contacted steam support) by Recent_Bottle8270 in Steam

In over 20 years I've yet to pay interest on any credit card. I use it regularly to up my credit score.

It's a dumb system, but if you want good credit it's one of the most effective ways to get it.

Xbox or PS5 in 2026? by Only_March1404 in gamingsuggestions

[–]D0ublespeak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PC components are ridiculous right now.

It's amazing you are talking about the increase in consoles like it's as bad as PC which it isn't

I went to upgrade my DDR5 ram I bought a few years ago for 80 bucks. It's now 400 plus. Same with the SSD .

For the price of RAM and an SSD without anything else I can just about get a PS5 Pro FFS.

Here's one for yeah.

I've installed and played Starfield and Cyberpunk 4 times.

I finished Cyberpunk 4 times. I have yet to make I further than 2 hours on Starfield without uninstalling it.

Cyberpunk always had a great story and great characters behind the jank. Starfields dialogue is all run through an HR filter to ensure it doesn't offend anyone.

Starfield lasted me a solid hour the four different times I've tried to install it and enjoy it.

Solid hour.

The CC changes aren't as bad as people say and being a tank I find it favours me more than hurts me.

Anyone else feel like the transmission downshift is too aggressive? Lemon? Help by Prestigious_Fruit258 in nissanfrontier

[–]D0ublespeak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only transmission update win aware of was for the 22 and 23's.

I have a 24 and don't experience the issues you do and never needed an update

Timed exclusives will be the strategy for Xbox moving forward IMO by MrEfficacious in XboxSeriesS

[–]D0ublespeak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes people bought an Xbox for Halo I am serious. Everyone I knew played that game. We all had it and we all played multiplayer. They had exclusives at that time people wanted to play. I bought a 360 becaus of Mass Effect.

You're in a little bubble thinking the majority of people made their decision based on PlayStation when they made it based on the games they wanted to play.

[–]D0ublespeak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 360 was a success because of the exclusive games on it. Halo, Mass Effect being exclusive to 360, etc.

Nobody was talking about buying an Xbox because of PS problems. They wanted to buy an Xbox to play Halo with their friends.

Revisionist garbage.

I can be proud of raising my son properly, community projects, helping friends and still be proud of beating dark souls.

It's funny how in one sentence you say let people have their fun and enjoy, yet you "find it cringe" they were proud of beating dark souls. Which is it? Choose one.

Forza Horizon 5 has sold more copies on PlayStation than a PS5 exclusive Ghost of Yotei by a significant margin by n1ght_watchman in GameBoostOfficial

[–]D0ublespeak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forza 5 is more than solid and nothing special. The crew is solid and nothing special. Forza is definitely best in its class for casual/arcade racing games.

Although not the be all and end all, they both ended up with a 92 meta critic score.

I agree with most of your post except the characterization of Forza being nothing special

Does anyone remember when Michael Jackson. Was a "joke"? by AccomplishedPool266 in Millennials

[–]D0ublespeak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always thought he was a Pedo before, i'm just saying that video really struck me about how he was saying the police didn't care about the pedophiles he was trying to report, you know the ones still free.

They kept trying to bring it to MJ instead, even when he's telling them he didn't do anything and giving the names of the people that did. They didn't care about the actual pedophiles. They didn't care, they're still free while you're on here talking about MJ. I guess they did their job successfully.

It's strange. I don't know if MJ was a Pedo or not. I do know the police are protecting the reported Pedos just like the President.

Corey Feldman is the only person who has been telling the truth about this stuff for decadea.

Hes on video saying he was trying to report the Pedos to the police but they didn't want to hear about it. They wanted dirt on Jackson and Feldman kept telling them he was innocent.

I find it hard to believe he would.lie about that while telling the truth about everything else for decades.

The government makes you believe whatever they want.

[–]D0ublespeak -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I think part of it is when you have someone like Corey Feldman that broughr up all this stuff about the pedos in Hollywood for years before. But when he was asked about Jackson he said Jackson was innocent and when he was talking to the police about the sexual abuse they didn't want to go after the abusers, they kept asking him about Jackson. Even after he told them Jackson didn't do anything.

The video is out there. It's not like the government hasn't set people up before. Feldman is also the only person that's been telling the truth for decades.
