@Th3solution Yeah I have noticed the comments on the articles rocketing up really quickly, within an hour there are 50+ comments. I've started to ignore the negative comments on some articles, state my piece and so far have escaped any abuse. That said, I've mainly kept to the forums I think at the moment. A lot of negativity but alas, that is what comes with success. Plus, new console generations also seem to bring the worst out of people.
Now I may be an idiot, but there's one thing I am not sir, and that sir, is an idiot
I’ve never really used article comments on here as I find it difficult to follow “conversations” between commenters with how the comment section is set up (rather than replies being immediately below the original comment on Disqus for instance). It also means you get a lot of people saying the same things.
Yeah it's been discussed in here previously that due to people in lockdown, the closure of the PS forums and the difficulty of getting in contact with PS support that there has been increased traffic on here.
I have a quick browse through the comments on articles, say my piece if I feel the need to and move on. Luckily the only people tagging me back have been either continuing the discussion in respective manner or positive feedback to what I've posted. But there is either too much negativity on some comments sections or just too many posts that I can be bothered reading them sometimes.
Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing them to fail.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
I made a tactial error recently with regards to my PS4. My wife is not a gamer but she loved Tetris as a child and recently we went to a retro arcade and she spent the whole time on the old Tetris cabinet.
It was her birthday a few weeks ago and the night before I thought her present haul was a little low and guess what, Tetris Effect was on playstation Store in a sale. So I 'bought' it for her with the expectation that she would play it once or twice, get bored, I'd get kudos and a game out of it. I'm a great husband and a clear catch, obviously.
So yeaaaaaah... she wants to play it everynight and hog the tv with PS4. Indeed, she has talked about a sharing rota. This is the same TV that my PS4 and XB1 are connected to. I'm also very much into a bunch of PS4 titles right now.
The real thing that caused the issues is trophies. When an early bronze trophy popped, the wife asked what that was and I absent mindedly explained that you could 100% a game and you received these for meeting in game achievements. I forgot she was massively competitive and now wants to try and platinum it (which I doubt beccause the trophy list is insane).
I was thinking of maybe getting the PS4 to crash and then telling her it got deleted because she broke ith. Any other ideas team PushSquare?

@Thrillho Ha ha - that had occurred to me but I am just terrible at Tetris compared to her. She has nearly finished the campaign on normal. I tried the last level after her and I managed 3 lines down before I failed. I just dont have the brain capacity for it!

I think it's time for a new non-contest, similar to the one that let us users send you our PS5 designs. Cyberpunk 2077: customized genitals could be the name.
Community rules may require an update.
What could possibly go wrong?
@andreoni79 Ooof be careful googling what I say, god knows what rabbit hole you'll end up in!
Pimp my Ride is an American TV show and I quote wikipedia "Watch Xzibit and his supercool entourage make someone's day, transforming broken down, junkyard jalopies into mean machines with deadly gadgets that some would kill for."
And junk is slang for, well I think you work that one out.
And to think there was a time not long ago when Rockstar got blasted in the media for “hot coffee.” Lol, seems so tame by today’s standards. Now we have fully customizable genitals and explicit sex in the first person in a major AAA game. So far, I’ve not seen any outcry from the censorship camps in the media. (Granted, I’m not searching for it though)
@TrueAssassin86x Jeez, that guy. When even PewDiePie (didn’t actually apologise, he sticks to his edgy rep) for appearing in a stream with him, you know there’s a problem. MtG finally got rid of him and I had no idea he was even still on YT.
@Gremio108 That is a great idea and I thought that (technically I have an OG game boy but I try my and keep it hidden from the kids). So I thought a good quality handheld emulator in GB style. Floated the idea and she says she can’t go back to GB Tetris after all the visuals of Tetris Effect. She finished the campaign on normal last night and now she wants to get highly on the world rankings.
