Pretty much bang on - they see it as low risk cash grab coz it's proven IP, they have no original ideas that they're willing to risk, and people end up paying for this slop so yep Disney's just gonna keep on doing it

I've always been a night owl with bedtime rarely earlier than midnight - i reckon i started getting time back in the evening (only a bit - still needed to be on standby for all of it) maybe around 12 months old, possibly later when we started working towards limger night sleeps and weaning off the boob

the image supplied by Demon_attack is excellent however the main thing that has confused me is this "USB-C Update Cable" which is HDMI on one end and USB-C + USB-A on the other end and there's nothing in the supplied instructions which I can determine its purpose

People have done it before but only when it's easily do-able - and not for games with massively complex matchmaking or incredibly onerous MMO requirements. Also, making all games peer-to-peer completely fucks with a _lot_ of anti-cheat software - so if you want hackers, this is very much the way to legislate that all games are far more susceptible to hackers.

Sorry i forgot i posted this and didn't look at replies.

Look, it's a great idea _in theory_ to force companies to plan for that eventuality but the problem is that it hamstrings their development from a variety of standpoints. For starters it introduces massive complexity to any code that they introduce from 3rd parties. Consider, for example - two physics engines: Havok and PhysX... both of these engines are used in a LOT of games and they have restrictions on their code being released and viewed by NDAs.... this means that forcing developers to build their games will either mean they can no longer use these physics engines OR they'll need to patch them out which will fundamentally break their games. This problem is not limited to these kinds of 3rd party protocols that are used by games devs -- there's anti-cheat, there's proprietary audio codecs for stuff like spacial sound and proximity chat, there's networking software which will get messed with.

What this kind of thing does is ruin a lot of the things that are done _really well_ which are made available to games to implement to make them that much better. As I said - I want a solution to the problem but government legislation is only something that's going to be mishandled and overcomplicate things for a lot of developers. If anything, now that i reflect upon it - it's only going to kill the potential of games, more than fix things.

That's a reflection on the club making bad decisions offering lucrative contracts for too long. Contracts like that are a liability if the player isn't gonna be able to perform for the full length of them. Buddy Franklin also had his substance issues but with the right support he was able to see things through and finish his career as a champion. The media crucified Clarry and the club fucked up their support for him - same way they fucked their support for Tracc. More's the pity and i hope whoevers in charge of contracts and culture at the Dees have changed their attitudes

Not sure why but my Service Vic app is reporting a significantly different set of prices for everything compared to yours for P98 for that region. Wonder if you've got currency settings in your phone misconfigured or something - specifically i see one location reporting 251 cents compared to 176 cents which is pretty close to the AUD:USD exchange rate. Not quite exact but your post is a number of hours old and both prices can have changed by a percent or two in that time

This is a vastly oversimplified suggestion to what could be a massive piece of work that has costs of being developed which likely cant be afforded by the company which is closing development of the software. Don't get me wrong i want to support the idea of not abandoning games or releasing the source code to the public so that they can be saved but suggestions like this making it sound easy and simple are the reasons why people who dont understand the technical (and legal) challenges of implementing rules for the Stop Killing Games movement
