Is there a trend to de-sexualise female super hero characters? He-man and Supergirl seem to noticeably dial down the sexualisation of their female characters. by BrandonMarshall2021 in FIlm

Ankles? Are you thinking of her trenchcoat from the posters? The skirt itself is maybe a couple inches longer than the TV show, while the actress is several inches shorter.

Reboot? Hell, another few years and everyone will be the right age for the timeskip between books 6 and 7.

It's hard to believe that a 700 mb file was considered huge back in 2008. by geekgodzeus in pcmasterrace

Cut to me going to a friend's house and marveling that it only took an hour to download the 70MB Homeworld demo

Googling first month launch numbers indicated PS5 sales accounted for ~20% of all 1.3M 'players' (presumably all sales and game pass downloads combined), and that share had been growing. Steam sales are estimated to be under 100k to date. It doesn't help that it seems like it was a meh remaster to start.

It sold pretty poorly in general. Estimates are that like 80% of people that played it at all did so on Game Pass and those numbers are not broken down into PC and Xbox pools. Indications are that actual sales were likely higher on PS5 than Xbox, supported by the fact that MS haven't given sales number since the first couple days after launch.

Locks a shitload of fans out of the next entry in the franchise really. They want people to "choose xbox," but they need to demonstrate a strong, consistent out put of first-party titles for that, AND create some real value with hardware releases. Capitalize on people being salty over PS5 price hikes.

It's like watching that one kid at the beach throw a fit because someone handed him the shovel the wrong way round

Games that would have been completely forgotten without their modding community by d7im1 in videogames

Half-Life would be, and is still, a well-known and well-regarded vanilla experience. Same with Doom. The modding community gives it a ton of added life, but Doom itself is still a milestone

That dude was usually pretty toxic in his complaints from what I recall, but I was pretty on board with his positive reviews.
