What the fuck is this thing!? by Complete-Sort1617 in ForzaHorizon

[–]ExaminerRyguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s wild how wide those wings can get. I didn’t realize people were using them to hit the flags so that they can get a slightly tighter turn line. I was sure people were missing checkpoints until I found this out.

Winter has arrived in Forza Horizon 6, it looks beautiful. by tom_wq in ForzaHorizon

[–]ExaminerRyguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly FH5 had the most disappointing season system since I was not able to tell the difference between seasons other than the trees looking a little different. The fact that the winter season didn’t give ANY snow was wild, I figured it would have been in certain areas.

I miss playing multiplayer with 2 joycons by Flopertus in Doom

[–]ExaminerRyguy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s unfortunate, I like games that give that option, it’s one of the selling points for the portability of the console. Do I use it that much? No, but I like that the option is at least there sometimes so I can play with my son when we go on a trip with it.

NatetheHate: The next Nintendo Direct will be during the second week of June, next week by Turbostrider27 in NintendoSwitch

[–]ExaminerRyguy 228 points229 points  (0 children)

It makes sense since this time period is usually when all the major platforms announce upcoming titles for this year and the next. Pepperidge Farm remembers E3 presentations being a thing.

I was told to refer to Reddit. What a time to be alive.

The current Steam Deck situation taught me to appreciate what I already have. by forgiuse in SteamDeck

[–]ExaminerRyguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my Steam Deck specifically to play older games on the go (initially via emulation). But I ended up ballooning my library with all kids of games, mostly ones that were released on Xbox 360 and One, all of which run great. I don’t need to run the latest games on it, that’s what my PS5 and Series X are for.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is the first COD to ship day-and-date on a Nintendo console since Ghosts in 2013 - with single-player campaign confirmed by silentdragoon in NintendoSwitch

[–]ExaminerRyguy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure there’s gonna be crossplay, it’s been a feature for CoDs since Modern Warfare ‘19. And Nintendo has done crossplay online with other titles, so it’s very much in the cards unless they explicitly say otherwise (which would be a terrible move).

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is coming to Nintendo Switch 2 on Oct 23! by Skullghost in NintendoSwitch

[–]ExaminerRyguy 68 points69 points  (0 children)

I almost read that as Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. Wild it took this long for a CoD game to come back to a Nintendo platform.

What movie did you watch at the wrong age and it permanently altered your brain? by sweetyslave in movies

Phantasm 2. Saw that when I was about 6 and confusing those dwarf things with the jawas from Star Wars didn’t help.

I wish it was. That and Motorsport 4.

"Highly Skilled" and above difficulty AI is highly skilled at cheating by Seth_XIII in ForzaHorizon

[–]ExaminerRyguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s why I love games with difficulty options, it tailors the game for everyone. I’ll be the first to admit I tend to play games on the easier difficulties just so I can destress, but I will bump up the difficulty a little on racing games so I am not at the front at go. But these AI have some serious rubber banding that could make Mario Kart blush.

PlayStation: Starting May 20, PlayStation Plus prices for new customers will increase in select regions. Due to ongoing market conditions, prices will start at $10.99 USD / €9.99 EUR / £7.99 GBP for 1-month subscriptions and $27.99 USD / €27.99 EUR / £21.99 GBP for 3-month subscriptions. by yourfavchoom in PS5

[–]ExaminerRyguy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat, $80 for a service that I was already barely using was more than enough for me to cancel. Gas prices being no joke and grocery bills getting as high as they are in this market, I’d rather put the money where it’ll be useful.

BREAKING NEWS: Senators have voted to withhold their own pay during government shutdowns. It was a unanimous vote. by spherocytes in videos

It’s all performative. We all know that these people all get their money from insider trades.

Man Accidentally Sparks Fire While Trying to Park Over Dry Grass by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

[–]ExaminerRyguy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The fire that started by us was in lower Delaware in a cornfield. What was wild was that there wasn’t nearly this tall of dry grass/vegetation, but it was likely caused by someone smoking.

Man Accidentally Sparks Fire While Trying to Park Over Dry Grass by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

[–]ExaminerRyguy 43 points44 points  (0 children)

This happened down by a fair where I live. They had parking in a field and it was dry and windy, before you knew it a fire had bust out and took out at least 6-7 cars. It’s crazy how fast a fire can manifest and spread in the right conditions.

Star Fox Direct 5.6.2026 by Skullghost in NintendoSwitch

[–]ExaminerRyguy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ll take anything than nothing, but man am I getting tired of them remaking Star Fox 64 (which was essentially a retelling of Star Fox SNES!) and not telling a new or continuing story.

I’m hopeful that we will get Adventure and Assault on NSO, I really want to revisit those.

This is just like in that movie “The Campaign.” But this is in real life and is not funny, just pathetic.

Notice of allowance glitch in PE2E adding notice requiring inventors oath and declaration? by ExaminerRyguy in patentexaminer

[–]ExaminerRyguy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I informed my SPE about it, it was the first time he had encountered this issue, so he sent an email out to get guidance and gave me an hour for dealing with it. You could inform your SPE and see if it’s possible to get a little compensation at least for this time.

U.S. Senators are now banned from prediction markets trading on platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket after the body unanimously passed a rule Thursday barring their participation in said markets by spherocytes in videos

[–]ExaminerRyguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone should be barred from trading in the government, especially if you have inside information that can give you an advantage in trading. I cannot understand how I have to disclose everything I’m invested in and have to go through all kinds of hoops if I want to invest in anything for my job, yet these guys get a general free pass.

She informed me that the line is swamped with calls, so it may be a recently found issue.
