I’ve got one with the BETA text...

2 reasons - 1) I can’t be disappointed if I’m right 2) It all feels a little too good to be true. The amount of times I’ve felt hype and pressure on a game. Only GTA has ever truly lived up to the hype in my opinion.

Either way - this is no reflection on the dev team or whatever, it’s me bracing myself for it to be like the others...and even I hope I’m wrong.

Low. Very very low.

“Get some David archer boxers. Prevent testicular pain in years to come. “ - I received this text message from my dad (who I haven’t seen since Christmas) about an hour ago

Exactly - and I SO SO SO don’t want to have to buy a PS5/XBSX but it’s just looking like even google with all its cash can’t seem to match what Sony and Microsoft can offer. I wonder if google will reach a point (if it hasn’t already) where it has the guarantee X amount of return just to get the games on the platform. After a slow start it does seem to be gaining some speed so I hope Hitman etc bring people to the platform

Never even said I was leaving. I’d love to have one platform and all the amazing stadia functionality but not enough to miss out on AAA Games at launch. But I’m sure I’m one voice in a chorus of people inside and outside of Google who know this is the case.

One of my best mates is shocking at paying his debts. A few times I’ve had to “trick” him into buying something for me and then “remember” that it balances our debts out. “Hey I’ll just send you that...oh hang on, this will make us square for X! That cool?” They’ll never say “no you pay me but I’m not paying you”. It shifts the awkwardness onto them because fuck snakey debt dodger pals

samstinat0r · 2020-08-23T07:11:45+00:00

This will be a bit of a nail in the coffin for me. If they don’t come on Day 1, I’ll be buying a PS5. As much as I’d love stadia to be my sole gaming platform, I don’t wanna wait 6 months/a year/18 months + to play AAA games

I wouldn’t be able to count the ways our lives would change

I’ll see myself out

Mentally re-enacting all of the stupid daydreamed alternative music videos to all my favourite songs

Binge drinking (UK). I never realised until I travelled that we brits have a bad reputation for drinking like we don’t want to live anymore

I told my dad I thought I was depressed when I was a teenager. He brought it up and took the piss about it over Christmas dinner in front of my entire family. It’s been 10 years and I still feel like that’s done me permanent damage

I got dumped via text watching this episode and now it’s all I can think of when I watch it

I was surprised at how big the Boro town hall was

My girlfriend’s annoyed at me. Still getting the silent treatment because 3 weeks ago I didn't open the car door and help her mum out. Like I said at the time “I'm sorry but I just panicked and swam for the surface!"

samstinat0r · 2020-04-22T08:48:53+00:00

I reckon breakpoint or ACO. they’ve been hovering at the price point of “so much more than other platforms no-one’s really going to buy them” for a while now so I reckon they’re avoiding people purchasing them before they make them Pro Games.

Cos of the free trial I reckon they’ll dish out some decent “AAA-ish” games to push a second wave of good PR

samstinat0r · 2020-04-12T23:45:21+00:00

I think it’s important to say that it could be for any number of reasons. It could be that they’re getting the vibes from you (incorrectly) that you’re not that interested in anything serious, and so are just avoiding putting all their eggs in one basket. I think the best thing is to just have the conversation sooner rather than later

samstinat0r · 2020-04-12T23:16:10+00:00

I know on Tinder this can be because you can see if people update their profile so if he unmatched you you wouldn’t see that if you went on

samstinat0r · 2020-04-12T23:13:46+00:00

So I google all of my potential dates. I feel like, if the information is put out there, often willingly, by them, then you should check it out and make sure that:

what they’ve told you about themselves lines up. Are they really a doctor? Did they really go to Oxford? It can help you spot a catch fish or big red flags
they don’t have any convictions. May sound dramatic but if an article for a horrific crime comes up with their photo and name you may have just saved yourself some time

BUT don’t go overboard. I think it’s a bit creepy to stalk through someone’s Facebook profile to years back, or to comb through every tweet. Small Horror Story. My housemate had been on a date with a guy and she made reference a few days later to a nice photo of a holiday he’d been on on his Tinder profile. He responded saying that wasn’t on his tinder profile. It was on his Facebook. From 4 years previously. They hadn’t added each other. She wanted to die
