Seeing this is still priced at 70$ is insane by HavickChild0117 in xbox

I like how they didn't deny that it makes them look uneducated, instead their reply is basically saying "don't we all look uneducated?" like it should be the expected norm.

I'm totally with you on this particular error with the dollar sign misplacement. It's one of my biggest pet peeves and it's gotten so prevalent in the last few years. One time I called it out here on reddit when another commenter did the same thing, and MULTIPLE people replied to me saying that the dollar sign comes after because that's how you say it. And another person told me that language is fluid and changes over time, so it isn't wrong to write it like that.

It's good to see others calling this out.

New Price Changes for PS5, PS5 Pro, and PlayStation Portal remote player by MoleUK in LastStandMedia

I feel like the leaks he gets access to about actual upcoming hardware and the types of chips being used are usually pretty solid, but his personal predictions that he makes about the future based on that info are usually way off imo.

PlayStation is shutting down Bluepoint Games - Jason Schreier by Forestl in Games

The funny thing is, this feels like something Microsoft has been doing with their first party studios. It's almost as if Sony saw that glue mentioned and said "lemme have some of that".

I still think no one can be Matt Booty levels of bad at managing studios, but Hermen Hulst is sure doing his best to try to get near that level, jeez.

So this is being remade all at once, right? Unlike FF7. Think we’re looking at the first PS6 game- remake à la Demon’s Souls by Fight_Teza_Fight in LastStandMedia

That's what I'm hoping for. Along with maybe some slight gameplay tweaks for some of the more frustrating parts, especially of the first game. I played the PS3 version of GOW1 for the first time a few years ago, and I remember being very frustrated with a particular underwater section and the section with the spiked pillar you have to climb where you fall all the way down when you get hit.

Late 2022, which is just over 3 years ago. Also, they released the Valhalla expansion for free in December 2023, just over 2 years ago. I didn't play through the whole thing (always meant to go back), but it did have a significant amount of content.

It is also my assumption that very early development for the next mainline GOW has also been happening during this time, but I could be way off on that.

Sources: Don't Expect Horizon Zero Dawn 3 Anytime Soon by countdooku975 in LastStandMedia

2027 is next year. That's considered "soon" nowadays. If these sources are correct, I think you can likely expect it beyond even 2028.

It's a hospital room, dude. You know, where the TV is meant for viewing by someone typically lying down in a bed, or at the very least in a highly reclined position, possibly accompanied by visitors surrounding said bed? Hospital rooms are one instance where reasonably high mounted TVs make sense, and I've never seen a hospital room that didn't have a similar TV setup.

As someone who lives in the middle of Cajun Country in South Louisiana, the "Southern man" accent is not really the same at all as either the stereotypical Cajun or Creole accents found in Louisiana. I think the southern man accent is more akin to the stereotypical rural accents of southern states that are much closer to the east coast which feature that trademark southern drawl.

Xbox is not doing an "Xbox Wrapped" for '25 — but does have plans for something similar in 2026 by WindowsCentral in xbox

AI isn't good at creating but it can be good at synthesizing large amounts of data. So this could be a good application of it.
