11-11 has a unique art style. It’s like an impressionist water color come to life.

@11001100110zero I was referring to OpenAI, the Sam Altman company headquartered in San Francisco. On October 1, they signed two simultaneous deals with Samsung and SK Hynix (neither of which knew the other deal existed) swallowing up forty percent of the global supply of DRAM. This, to me, seems like the kind of thing that antitrust laws were made to prevent. Government oversight should be able to prohibit a single American company (which OpenAI is) from gaining this type of competitive advantage in the marketplace.

I am afraid that the OpenAI deal to tie up forty percent of the world’s DRAM supply is going to greatly affect the price of the PS6.
I honestly do not see how that is legal and why the media is not giving more attention to the story. During the pandemic, when there was a shortage of computer chips, there were articles everywhere. And this is different than GPU prices during the height of crypto mining. That was individuals buying up all the cards for their mining rigs. This is one company responsible for the supply constraints. Certainly there must be some anti-monopoly legislation or government oversight that could prevent a single company from controlling that much of the supply chain.

Too big to fail?

@PuppetMaster Ageist much?

@sanderson72 The Japanese language only model doesn’t cost less to manufacture. Actually, Sony is probably selling it at a loss to carve back market share in Japan. The point of it being Japanese language only is to prevent scalpers from reselling the cheaper model in other territories.

@LazyDaisy Valve sells a Steam Deck Docking Station.

@PuppetMaster Because 51 is so old.
Btw, Daniel Craig was 51 when he played 007 in the last Bond film. Tom Cruise is 63, and he’s still running.

I just do not understand how anyone could complain about this month’s selection. Several games that I want to play but didn’t want to spend the money on, and the one that I did, Still Wakes the Deep, is fantastic.

Anyone looking for another Silk Song fix should check out Afterimage. It’ is a gorgeous hand drawn metroidvania with tight controls, and it is on sale for a fiver in the store (80% off). I actually liked it more than Nine Sols, even if it didn’t get the same attention.

A shame this feature is locked behind Premium.

Lucky Insomniac.

@Oram77 They probably decided the poll wasn’t necessary and just gave it to Ghost of Yotei.

There is a free Pet Pal at the start of the Battle Pass.

Say what you will about the man, he does have good taste in hoodies.

Please don’t think less of me, but I am going to load up Fortnite and check out the Springfield map for The Simpsons season.

Oh my god. There goes my November.

I just want a new Tomb Raider. Doubt it will ever happen now.

Looks like I’m going to have to cough up some d’oh for the Battlepass.

Please tell me this has couch co-op.

This sounds like so much fun. Even Fortnite haters have to admit the appeal of playing in a Springfield map.

Wasn’t As Dusk Falls published by XBOX? Is that the first XBOX published title to make it to the subscription service?

Any chance you guys will print the list so we can see it without having to watch the video?

Like a lot of people probably, I am waiting because Ghost of Yotei is so close.

I loved the game. Loved, loved, loved. Chapter 4 of Alan’s story, the We Sing level, is a bizarre twenty minute musical interlude set to a number by the Old Gods of Asgard, and it is the most unique and trippiest segment of a game that I have ever played. Should be experienced by everyone, even if you are not a fan.

Hope the highlight isn’t the announcement of their new “rewards” program.

Daft Punk is playing at my house, my house
I’ll show you the ropes kid, show you the ropes

@Northern_munkey Please don’t use the word “cringe” as it is just so cliche and…
vomit inducing.

I managed to get the platinum on The Plucky Squire before it left the subscription service on Tuesday which was quite the surprise because I had quit the game in frustration last year after missing a glitchbird. It was supposed to be impossible to go back and collect them with chapter select after finishing the game because the game does not save your progress when replaying chapters. After beating the game, it was the only trophy I was missing and I had eight out of the ten birds. I decided to replay two early chapters and somehow the plat popped. I want to start something else on the service, so I have installed Harold the Halibut and Sword of the Sea. One of those should click. And I might give Skate a try, although I am leery about the monetization. I might go back to Dead by Daylight to earn a few blood points because the new killer and survivor release next week and they actually look really cool.
Enjoy your weekend everyone.

@get2sammyb Remember when you said you were glad we could finally stop talking about Silksong?

Is this title going to be on Game Pass? If not, how large would the player base be on XBOX anyway?

If it is online co-op only, will it be like Split Fiction where only one copy of the game is required?

I still don’t understand how it is a Silent Hill game if it does not take place in Silent Hill.

Oh no,. Here we go again.

@Fishmaterflex96 Ah, gotcha. Thanks for responding. I was racking my brain trying to come up with what it could be. And don’t forget about Split Fiction. Surely it must take up a spot.

@PuppetMaster The original may still look and play great, but it also sells for a hundred dollars for a used copy on eBay and nearly twice that for a new one. And not everyone still has access to a PS2 anyway.

@Fishmasterflex96 What game are you referring to as OW2? I immediately think of OverWatch 2, but that came out a couple of years ago and certainly would not be in the conversation for GOTY.

Booooooo. I feel like most of the people complaining probably didn’t even play Hollow Knight and bought Silk Song because of all the anticipation leading up to its release.

My left stroke just went viral…

@Th3solution You are correct. There is a measurable difference between the original Lara and the reboot Lara.

Ugh. Do I really have to say more?
Okay, Phoebe Waller-Bridge would make a better Lara.

@AaronBayne When you say that you have to use an item or delete it from your inventory to make room for other items, does that mean there are no storage chests?

@CVCubbington Or a Bloodborne remaster.

Delaying the physical copy is a smart move. I am sure there are many diehard fans who will want to play it right away and will then pay again to get it physical. And at twenty dollars for the digital, who can blame them.

So colorful. Looks beautiful.

Such a strange title to release free to play.

@get2sammyb Only if we can finally stop talking about Bloodborne.

Wait, I thought it was Fairgame$.
