  1. You mean like the "live action" Lion King that's coming up. At least this one and Jungle Book had some human actors.
  2. This is the guy that said his wife was freaked out about this kid trying to break in and then he slipped and accidentally fired his gun, right? That's quite the story when he, himself, has his front door covered by a security camera. I'm surprised he didn't even try to erase the footage.
  3. Really? The salvaging QTEs were tricky in some areas. The QTEs during battles may as well have not existed because they were so easy to hit. I think the only times I ever missed a QTE in battle was when one of my kids pulled my attention away from the Switch. This isn't Mario and Luigi having you hit attacks in some sort of rhythm or based on some well timed cue. That sucks, but I have no idea if that's the norm.
  4. The only actual timing based action in the games were for the special and elemental attacks and not once did frame rate limit my ability to hit those. Again, I played the game like 90% in handheld mode and sank well over 100 hours into it. This is not an action RPG. It's like Grandia, but you can manually control the character movement and your character just auto-spams the basic attack when its action meter reaches the end. Going back and playing through Star Fox on the SNES is hard, even though I loved the game when it first came out. Xenoblade 2 is nothing like that. It gets ugly sometimes, but it's perfectly playable and never stops being fun.
  5. Nah. WB should just do a straight sequel to the Tim Burton Batman films and turn those into Batman Beyond. Bring back Michael Keaton as old Bruce and cast whoever as Terry.
  6. Eh...I played the game like 90% handheld. It gets ugly at times, but it never stopped the game from being enjoyable. This is a turn based JRPG we're talking about here.
  7. Everything about this is dumb. I actually liked Google+ as a place to share photos. There just wasn't anyone to, you know, share photos with there. I stopped using it years ago after this became apparent. Either way. Update: https://www.theverge.com/2018/10/9/17957312/google-plus-vulnerability-privacy-breach-law TLDRL This wasn't actually a breach and there is no evidence that anyone's data was stolen. Google patched the issue back when it was first discovered that this the API call could theoretically be used in a malicious manner...not that anyone ever tried to use it in a malicious manner. Seems to me that Google was already planning to shutter Google+ to non-GSuite users and is just using this as an excuse to either announce their plans or hasten its death.
  8. There are an other 5m or so Puerto Ricans living states-side, so I'm pretty sure that number doesn't cover half the people that care about that factoid.
  9. Everyone is coming out pretty strongly against this story... https://www.theverge.com/2018/10/4/17936968/apple-amazon-deny-servers-chinese-spy-chips It's not often you see these companies out right deny a report this detailed.
  10. It already has Bluetooth. The controllers pair up over a regular Bluetooth connection. Nintendo is just being stupid. Upgrades is like to see is a better screen, better battery life, and a better kickstand. Would be cool to see a power upgrade that did nothing more than allow the Switch to play docked content in portable mode on an upgraded 1080p screen.
  11. At the same time, I can see a future where a lot of food is grown in greenhouse conditions, closer to city centers. This is the kind of tech that will allow us to squeeze more food grown into a smaller space.
  12. If the boards met their stores during QA, why would they know? Sounds like everything worked as designed and intended...up until the small chip kicked in and tried to do something. I imagine that in behavioral analytics, this would be hard to pin down if you're seeing suspicious traffic going over your network with no clear origin.
  13. My two year old son has an iPad. He can make video calls to my wife, navigate to different games, watch different shows on PBS Kids, and read and write letters with some educational games. We don't even let him have the thing everyday or for long periods of time. It's crazy to think of the world that'll belong to this coming generation of kids.
  14. This should probably be added to the end of every thread on this board...
  15. I think that's mostly because dedicated TRU stores were very few and far in between. Every TRU in Massachusetts closed its doors and I'm fairly certain the vast majority of them were also a Babies R Us. Even when I count New Hampshire, there want a single TRU left within reasonable driving distance that want also partially dedicated to furniture and baby clothes. Are there actually any stores left? I remember it was announced back in June that the last few TRU left would finally close.
  16. That change is certainly worth a few points taken off.
  17. We're also talking about a woman relating her own experience at the hands of someone she knew. Like, if she was assaulted by an anonymous stranger and years later swears that person was Kavanaugh, I'd be far more skeptical. In this case, she's talking about a person she knew at the time and identified as her attached years ago.
  18. https://deadline.com/2018/09/dark-phoenix-alita-battle-angel-deadpool-gambit-release-date-changes-1202473229/ This is only Ok if Ryan Reynolds is yelling some random vegetable over every swear uttered in the movie. I'm just focusing on that because I don't want you think about the fact that Alita had been pushed into next year. It's only been like forty years since the film was first announced, so what's a few more months. Also, Gambit has now been pushed back to 2020 and it's really cute that people are still pretending that this movie is ever going to get made.
  19. It isn't. The press barely does any real critical thinking here. They'll just regurgitate anything they're fed. They have this wavering fear of ever losing their access and refuse to call anyone out on the BS or straight up label someone a liar. Trump lies all the time and we still see most media outlets refusing to just straight up admit that much. Instead, they'll dance around it with wording like "Trump appears to have contradicted himself".
  20. I don't think they're the ones doing the flip switching. I'm pretty sure that's going to be done on Epic's end. Sony doesn't have to do anything, but let it happen.
  21. This was known back before the console launched. The 3.5mm jack on the Switch is a TRRS port. That extra ring was always going to be for a microphone. Nintendo just decided to be weird about it for whatever crazy reason that is beyond any normal human comprehension.
