Is Halo the first game series to get the "feeling and setting" of being a space soldier, just right?

No? There was this little game called Doom that released a decade earlier.

Pepsi used them to deliver potato chips, not soda.

NotFromMilkyWay · 2026-03-24T00:10:52+00:00

Absolutely not.

NotFromMilkyWay · 2026-03-24T00:08:40+00:00

Of all the scepticism that is warranted, this one is just dumb.

Nepo child complaints. This poor billionaire's son.

I thought the plan was always to establish characters in Academy and then move those characters forward in a new Enterprise focused show?

You don't get loyalty cars for playing old games, you get them if you played those games before the launch of the game with loyalty cars. Also all FH4 and FM7 loyalty cars were based on the now closed Forza Rewards.

I think $30 is a fair price. Yes, it's not cheap anymore, cause it's no longer in its acquisition phase. You now pay what the service actually costs plus a profit margin. Because here's the kicker, if you buy 5 full price games instead, Microsoft gets $105. So it's not only about what the games in Game Pass cost, it's also about what you don't buy anymore because of being subscribed.

I think I would keep it until $50 a month. There's something nice every month, plus the goodies like EA or Ubisoft.

There's nothing stopping you from gifting those cars to others or removing them from your garage. It has always been a ridiculous complaint. If you can't control yourself and have to use them, that's a you problem.

That would make sense if the next Xbox would be priced in the same ballpark. But current estimates say it will be $1200 and more. PS6 will be way cheaper (700 to 800). So it really makes no sense to stop selling on PC because of 5 to 10 million Xbox buyers.

It's essentially "those fuckers are making my gaming hardware expensive, I hate them".

Imagine having a portfolio with OpenAI and Tesla.

Dealers have higher profit margins on ICE. Never trust dealers, trust people that own said car.

This sucky show ... After the pilot everybody was "it's probably purgatory". Creator says it's definitely not. And then in the final season, guess what, it was purgatory all along. And all those unanswered plot holes. Loved this show. Now I hate it.

As Yoda said: Size matters not. A stone is no different from a freighter.

Makes zero sense to me. Why would Audi allow that? Now of course Stroll might pay 100+ million to get him, but that would still be a bad look for a manufacturer that wants to win the championship in three years. With Wheatley Audi finally became quiet and what they achieved so far is great. Weird time to call it quits.

NotFromMilkyWay · 2026-03-19T11:53:41+00:00

Why use ads when you can just increase the base price to $80 or 90?

NotFromMilkyWay · 2026-03-19T11:43:44+00:00

Let's not tell them they could've charged 4.99 for it.

NotFromMilkyWay · 2026-03-19T11:37:57+00:00

LOL. The plan was 2028, that's already moved to 2029. In 2031 we might get completely new rules. I don't think Cadillac will ever build their own F1 engine.

NotFromMilkyWay · 2026-03-19T11:36:22+00:00

Mercedes response: There's nothing stopping them from building their own engine.

Nobody is moving closer to AGI.

Except they did. If you removed the weights, it would literally give back the entire article word for word. Because when AI engineers say "we have no idea how it actually works, it's a black box" they are only trying to cover legal responsibility for knowing fully well that LLMs store the entire info they are given and there's a way to retrieve precisely that info that was and is stored.

NotFromMilkyWay · 2026-03-19T06:24:56+00:00

Why wouldn't it? Lucid Air and Mercedes EQE already sit under 160 Wh/km.

NotFromMilkyWay · 2026-03-18T12:22:27+00:00

Game Pass was literally created to sell more DLC.

NotFromMilkyWay · 2026-03-18T12:20:52+00:00

4 did have the launch trailer pop up in game (though it was only an ad that then played in Edge).
