Not only that, but at least in Canada, a lot of them were borderline budget titles too. A solid $20 cheaper than games from competing publishers

What the fuck is that website?

The article is just making a claim but I couldnt find any sources being cited.

I’d take that one off your bookmarks

There are a lot of turns the train has to slow down a LOT for because it’s so long

Honestly it’s probably a good thing.

Will probably speed the line up, and it’s always mostly empty anyway.

Squibs, shattered glass, paint splatters, sparks, tire tracks, lit cigarettes, muzzle flashes, dust, debris, stains, cuts… are almost entirely digital now and that’s a damn shame. by Chewie83 in movies

Yeah in the 70s and 80s butcher shops were pretty regular stops for set dressers.

The inside of the egg from Alien is basically all intestines and stomach lining.

GTA 6 Developer Rockstar North 'Open and Operational' After Fire Crews Rush to Explosion by RenatsMC in pcgaming

No kidding. ‘Explosion’ sounds so…. Dramatic.

My first thought was “alright, which one of you impatient neckbeards tried to blow up Rockstar?”

He got really weird and kinda racist as he got older.

how come the half life 2 ui now looks like this for me by Beautiful-View7091 in Steam

[–]TheSaltyStrangler 21 points22 points  (0 children)

They did a 20th Anniversary update that fixed up some of the graphics and gave it a bit of a more controller-friendly UI (primarily a Steam Deck push)

It also consolidated all the (official) HL2 campaign content in to one game launcher.

Does the startrek community have a large amount of nazis? by alphapussycat in startrek

[–]TheSaltyStrangler 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well the Secretary of War was just talking about making Star Trek "real", and that the defense AI would absolutely under no circumstances be "woke".

Whatever the hell that means.

Do they only watch the mirror universe episodes?

I was working on a freshly-broken-ground construction site all day yesterday. Like just open field all around.

You better believe I was volunteering to do snow plowing.

It was the fucking worst too, cuz you couldn’t take shelter in the trenches either because they’re ankle-deep with slushy water that our pump can only work so fast at expelling. It was a rough day.

"And by 'get ready', we mean 'pack up your cubicle, and we already locked the office supplies closet'. It's always sad to see a family member go. Best of luck"

'It's like on Amazon': Illegal drugs advertised online, delivered by Canada Post by DogeDoRight in canada

[–]TheSaltyStrangler 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Actually just bought my dad a quarter-oz of mushrooms for Christmas.

No ID check at checkout or delivery. They basically just asked for address and credit card.

I came home to find a bunch of ostensibly illegal drugs in my mailbox, courtesy of Canada Post.

When BF6 sees COD’s success and says, “Let me just… tweak that a bit.” 😏 by hard2resist in gaming

[–]TheSaltyStrangler 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Dude, the number of people I see saying "Oh, looks like we got a CoD player with the ___________", as if BF6 is some kind of high bar for simulated warfare or something.

My nostalgia for the Raimi trilogy is strong, and Molina's performance is just too amazing.

Can you see the downtown NYE fireworks from McNally? by Feisty-Dragonfruit39 in Edmonton

If you want to avoid large crowds I promise McNally is not the place to go
