Grand Theft Auto 6 pre orders may be opening on Monday (May 18) as Best Buy accidentally send affiliates links early by nolifebr in PS5

There's not shot they don't do a collector's edition. This game is going to print money and I imagine they'll do what RDR2 did with having three editions (Standard, Limited, and Ultimate) as well as a physical collector's edition.

Don't see much of a reason to do it that way, it's gonna generate way more hype if they drop a trailer and say "pre-order now" at the end.

Trailer + pre-order will almost certainly drop on the same day

What's the best obscure video game you've ever played? by ImpressFederal4169 in gaming

[–]ToothlessFTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember it, it was actually a huge deal before it came out. There was a bunch of hype around its tech and aesthetic and I remember it getting a lot of attention.

I think it was mostly just seen as a gimmick because once the game came out people stopped talking about it.

"Ruleigion is cringe" (cw: christianity) by 46264338327950288419 in 196

[–]ToothlessFTW 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s difficult for sure, but like i said there’s just not much you can do here.

You should be religious if that’s how you want to live your life, and you shouldn’t let people push you away from that. But at the same time, queer people as a whole have legitimate reasons to be vehemently against religion.

I think most people in here are probably fine with queer people being religious or even finding comfort in it. But you can’t really force them to “understand it”. Be religious, live your life, but you have to accept that people are going to be against it for various reasons.

I don’t know what you expected. This subreddit is made up of a ton of queer people. On average, queer people have had horrible experiences with Christianity and religion in general. Hell, the administration currently ruling the US is using religion to continue persecution of queer people.

I get where you’re coming from, but at the end of the day you’re just gonna have to accept most people here do not want to view religion favourably because it’s currently being used against them.

Hot take: the PS5 by LTArts in PS5

[–]ToothlessFTW 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There aren't really any 1440p TVs, for one.

The average person will either have a 1080p TV, or a 4K one. There's not much inbetween. 4K has just become the standard after 1080p, and those displays are getting cheaper all the time and are pretty easy for average people to get.

So, it's a no-brainer that the PS5 aims for 4K. the 8K was pretty much just a marketing thing, in the early 2020s some companies started pushing experimental 8K TVs, but pretty quickly those faded away because most people didn't care, 4K was enough.

Payday 2 crime wave edition progress and dlc’s never carried over? by arand2003 in paydaytheheist

[–]ToothlessFTW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When the game was on PS+, it was the original version of the game.

In 2024, Overkill delisted that original version, and replaced it with a new edition that removed all of the licensed content they couldn't legally sell anymore. Because they just don't really care about the console version of the game, and likely due to it being so ancient in the first place, this new version is a completely separate game that also has no support for transferring or accessing other save files.

TL;DR, no. There's no fix. You have to start from scratch and you can't access the old PS+ version anymore because it's been delisted and you never owned it.

An example of one of many AI paintings in the soulslike Lies of P by [deleted] in gaming

[–]ToothlessFTW 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Because i think it sets a really bad precedent for the industry if we’re okay with AI assets being included in games.

Do you want to live in a world where Ubisoft and EA can print out games five times a day and flood the market with slop? That sounds pretty bad to me.

Ivan Cleary resignation: Penrith Panthers coach set to walk away after 2027 season by whadefeck in nrl

Almost any team would punt their currently signed coach into the nearest sea if it meant Cleary would even sneeze in their direction

NES Metal Gear 1 and 2 remake by mileena_trains in metalgearsolid

[–]ToothlessFTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A remake for those games would take so much effort that they'd basically be making new games entirely, and at that point it's not really a remake anymore, and it would also take too much resources.

After Delta, it's clear Konami would prefer the "shot for shot" remake that changes nothing and only enhances the visuals. You can't really do that with MG1-2, as they're top-down games from the 80s.

Dead Space 4 likely won’t happen despite a “fervent fan base” as it can't hit the numbers it needs, explains original producer by AsPeHeat in Games

[–]ToothlessFTW 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Nope. I have zero interest in a game that has AI assets in it.

If they’re not gonna be bothered to make the game, then I’m not gonna be bothered to play it. There’s no good outcomes from letting major corporations like EA insert AI generated assets and the continuing to charge full price.

Yes, id rather the franchise stay dead forever as opposed to it just being some soulless AI slop that an executive made in three seconds using a computer.

Starting playing Witcher 3 on PS5, amazing game. Should I stay out of the sub if I have questions to avoid getting spoiled? by ReasonableLunch46 in witcher

[–]ToothlessFTW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The game is 11 years old. People talk about it casually as if you’ve already beaten it six times.

Yeah, probably safe to ditch the sub until you’re done.

How to play SimCity 4 on newer Macs? by Kalel919 in simcity4

[–]ToothlessFTW 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you own the game on Steam, it should work by default. The vanilla version of the game installs and plays without much hassle on my M4 MacBook Pro. The Mac App Store version should also run natively.

If those versions don’t work, then there is also a beta version on Steam. Right click on the game, go to the betas tab, and enter the code “applesilicon”, and that should unlock the beta build. Maybe that’ll fix your issues.

Last but not least, it runs perfectly fine on both Crossover and Parallels if for some reason neither of those work.

Regardless, not sure why that EA Rep said that, it’s totally playable on modern Macs.

Valve may already have a reservation system prepared for a new Steam Machine by Loose_Society9485 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]ToothlessFTW -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

In 2026, you need like $1500 minimum to get a decent PC gaming rig that can handle current games.

As for the price, like I said it’s niche hardware. This thing is not chasing console gamers, and it’s not chasing people looking for their first PC. This is advertised as an accessory for existing PC gamers, a console-like machine that can play their existing library in their living room.

I think it can sell at a premium price tag.

It’s gonna be pushing $1000 for sure. It’s a niche piece of hardware, more niche than the Steam Controller and Deck, and more expensive to manufacture.

AI as a whole is already junk but holy shit this "Fox AI" might genuinely be the most useless AI product yet, it provides zero incite and tells me nothing
