It begs several questions.

1. Have these organisms always existed in the Atlantic (as this is where most hurricanes form)?

I don't think it's specific to the Atlantic. Typhoons are the same weather phenomena after all and there are cases of FEB in Asia. Whether or not it's on their beaches yet (or they're willing to acknowledge as much) is a whole other matter.

That new Mars crater is amazing. Thanks for providing space news on the regular.

That drunk fuck is annoying as shit... what were they thinking?

Agreed. Was really hyped for more Wasteland after reading the press release. Then I hit play on the trailer (I wish I left it on mute).

Now I'm aware Scotchmo is a recurring character in the franchise. But he was easy enough to ignore in WL2, unfortuntely you can't ignore him in the trailer. In this case I really hope it's just a bad decision when making the trailer (that music is awful too) and not indicative of the style of "humourous" narrative we can expect.

I'm currently playing through the Pre-Sequel (thanks PS+).

Aside from a few minor QoL improvements I still think the original is the best one.

Robin Williams or no sale! There is enough dialogue he recorded for the original Jumanji.

Would probably be better if you just grabbed some of his random standup bits and mixed it in.

Hell a video game just based on this clip alone would be worth it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIWB-Neyj-c

(I had no idea what I was getting when I ordered a copy of that cassette from Columbia House back in the day).

"The 44-year-old looked more like a dazed child"

Yup. That pretty much describes the conspiracy theorists I've dealt with face to face to a T.

But who needs mental health services when the good and right people of society can just scream bootstraps at them while defending the right of the people profiting off these "theories" in the name of freedom of expression?

I had one guy get visibly upset when he showed me one of his 'truth' books and I flipped to the back and laughed while pointing out that they had a form for financial contributions long before they offered a form to just join their cult.

They want your money before they even want your name!

I feel bad for that idiot streamer, poor baby might have to get A REAL JOB. shudder

Considering he was making a living by raging out - there's no 'real' job that would tolerate him and keep him on staff beyond the probationary period.

On the flipside I've been wondering about how / if it's even worthwhile to try streaming for entertainment. Mainly pro-level rocksmith and rockband but then I figure I'd be screwed with licensing issues.

I can't tell if you're more arrogant or ignorant anymore.

So the Ion protagonist is apparently named Shelly Harris...

Of all the names they could have used. S Harris.

For those who don't know (or still think the band isn't still relevant) Steve Harris has been the main guy in Maiden since the get go.

that stopped making music a couple of decades ago. Definite nuisance suit.

Iron Maiden has also sold computer games in the past

Unlike Icarus that one must've flew under my radar.

Most recently they released a mobile game a few years ago then catapulted that into a world tour that is still a few months from completion.

But Iron Maiden isn't exactly new to games either. They had Ed Hunter in 99 and I seem to recall another one in the early 2000s but kinda hard to google it now - everything comes up lawsuit. They've also got their own pinball table as of last year. They don't exactly shy away from gaming.

3d Realms couldn't have asked for better free press - gamers love an underdog even if the big name they're challenging actually supported gaming.

It was broken on PS4 last night. Wouldn't load past initial character creation.

I don't think CA will be able to do 40k properly by the way... not in this engine.

That's fair, truth be told the only Total War game I've played was Shogun 2 and only ever sank money into a single (mostly) 40k army. But even as I typed that first reply I wondered how CA would handle interplanetary space travel.

Either way my current potato pc can't really handle TW Warhammer. You definitely make it sound like it's worth getting though - once I finally get a new pc haha

there is not going to be another TW game ever that comes even CLOSE to that.

Not even if they take it 40 000 years into the future?
