@Rudy_Manchego Holy cow! Who will play you in the movie?!

Hope you're feeling much better now (didn't know curry was the go-to remedy for carbon monoxide poisoning) and that you enjoyed your time with Lara.

@RogerRoger Ha ha - he's not alive anymore but probably the guy who played Earnest in those Earnest movies.

I am OK, was actually cooking the curry for an hour that caused the poisoning. Turns out that some old pans if they get damanged can produce carbon monoxide when burnt on a gas stove. Cooked for an hour till my alarm went off!

Now I may be an idiot, but there's one thing I am not sir, and that sir, is an idiot

@Rudy_Manchego Blimey, good tip. You'd think something that was designed specifically to be heated over a gas flame for extended periods of time would be safe to, er... well, to heat over a gas flame for an extended period of time. Glad you're alright!

What's up with this week?

Google doing their streaming shenanigans.
Halo coming to Steam.
Sony IPs going to the Epic Store.
Cuphead on Switch.
Nintendo lending the Zelda IP to indie devs.

And to think it hasn't even ended yet... I need a drink or two...

@Octane ...and to top it all, Disney are reviving LucasFilm Games (the brand which pre-dated LucasArts) because it's not just gamers in comment sections any more; there's a company bigger and more powerful than EA which has had enough of EA being EA.

It's the end times.

@RogerRoger I'd say anything's better than EA, but then there's Disney. The apocalypse is here. Hoard all the games you can find and maybe it'll last you a lifetime... if you're lucky...

@Octane Don't lie, you were just looking for an excuse to have a drink or two...

Outer Worlds is also an Epic Store exclusive now. They didn't lie when they said they wanted to give you the Fallout experience. A bit of controversy is part of that.

@Octane I wonder if Steam will ever compete with Epic on how much revenue they keep?

@JohnnyShoulder Epic sells big games for $50, so it's not like it makes a huge difference to developers. $44 (50*0.88) vs $42(60*0.7). I think it's the big sum of money publishers get when they release their game exclusively on Epic. I'm not sure I want them to follow Epic. It's like a worse version of the console wars, except it takes place on one single platform.

@RogerRoger Thanks! Yeah this kind of thing would only happen to me. That said, buy carbon monoxide alarms people!

@Octane You seen the No Clip documentary on GOG? Well worth a watch.
