The only way NPCs win at pocket circuit racing in Kiwami is by cheating dammit! I just don't get how they can be double as fast AND be able to boost without flying out.


Pocket Racers Arcade, yeah? I remember i had to tweak the heck out of the cars and sometimes scrap a design and try something totally different than the design i was losing with. I also did a ton of the quests to get new parts for them.


edit: The "This" reaction was to the Kiwami post... probably. Stupid Post Merges, lol.
Probably nice to have a tail like this. You can cut it off, sell it and buy rtx 3090 at whim.
Korone will just trade in your fingers if she needs extra cash. I'm sure the salary at AsaCoco Uni pays well too.

Remember the new "Steam killer" Ultra? Its shill is back on 4chan. Here's the thread if you want to have a laugh.


On another note, they finally enabled server transfers in League of Legends again, so I immediately switched to EUNE since my friends who kept playing in my abscence moved back there from EUW. Naturally, something fucked up and my account is pretty much how it was back in 2012 before I transferred to EUW (barely any skins, barely any champions, etc.). Contacted Riot support right away and they responded in ~45 mins and are working on fixing it now. Hopefully it won't take long since I'd like to play today...

Thereā€™s always so much bizarre astroturfing on 4chan all the time. I swear every Ubisoft game gets a billion marketing threads leading up to releasing trying to play on some social controversy, only for it to all disappear when the game is out. Do marketers really think people fall for this shit?

Did you see that the custom link for the nomination doesn't work anymore? This has to be an error, right? Because it doesn't make any sense

I'm gonna write an app and put blockchain on it so I can get millions in angel investor VC.

Fuck EU in particular.

I don't want to be annoying but in this case the price is fair, and it seems the regional pricing is also decent. For EU, the difference is pretty much VAT, which is about 20% and not included in the US price. Much as some publishers take the piss with regards to Europe (cough Microsoft) this isn't one of these occurrences.

Well, they didn't increase other regions by tax amount. So yes, it's still fuck EU in particular.

The UK has 20% VAT and we don't have that big of a difference in price compared to Euros.

Then again, the purchasing power of people in the UK is going to crater as of next month so maybe the pricing is just preemptive.

For anyone looking for an interesting minesweeper like game

JFC it's really well amazing idea (and well animated)

Though being PICO-8 and all, hitboxes are little wonky

I would guess... some of the games which I recently bought:
  • Divinity Original Sin 1,
  • Divinity Original Sin 2,
  • Trine 4,
  • Keen.
Going by that logic it will be one of
  • God Eater 3
  • Evil Within 1/2
  • Zone of the Enders 2
I'm also waiting for Bloodstained and Plague Tale to show up.

In terms of Humble published games this time could be One Step From Eden.

get some elastic resistance bands for home fitness, they're incredibly light and have worked really well for me. fabric ones are more durable than latex though

Im finally gonna try Greedfall to see if it's worth a buy.

Control isn't on console, fuck that. though there's been some PC weirdness with other 505-published games on Game Pass (I could be misremembering, but iirc Bloodstained was only announced for console at first but came to PC at the same time, and Indivisible launched on PC a few weeks after console), so maybe it'll still show up on Game Pass PC in the next few weeks, idk.

also, Phogs is weirdly missing even though it releases on Thursday and was previously announced as a Day 1 Game Pass title. anyway, gonna play Call of the Sea at or shortly after launch, then Sea of Solitude and Jedi Fallen Order after EA Play is added on the 15th

I'm guessing God Eater 3. It's bamco and was 75% off in the sale. I'd love to add it to my vintage, still shrink wrapped collection of God Eater games.

Mudrunner is decent, but compared to the arrr version I played of Snowrunner back at launch, it feels like a tech demo/prototype, so I sadly just have to wait for Snowrunner to release on Steam.

Well I pretty much missed the entire November thread because if I fall behind I feel like I have to read to catch up and then never do. So, fresh start in December! Picket up more than I needed to across the web for games for the Friday / Monday sales. Monster Train is as good as it's hyped up to be which is super annoying and dangerous. Looking forward to having some time someday to dig into the others.

November monthly was yet another skip for me, I think that puts me at skipping 6 or 7 of the past 12 months, after only having skipped 1 the entire duration before these past 12. Tough year I guess.

It looks like Embracer will have a challenger in regards to acquiring small to medium studios:

EG7 enters into an agreement to acquire Daybreak Game Company and has secured debt financing and intends to raise equity

Far Cry 5's Lost on Mars is probably the most embarrassing writing I have ever read in a videogame. It is juvenile as fuck but I am kinda ok with the tone.

Ok, I need some help from other people here. I feel like I'm going insane.

I know what the following image is from, so don't post that as an answer.

..but I'm convinced I have seen something that looks exactly like this monster or near similar in another game, movie, show - whatever it is.

Please help.
