“Copies sold” is a much better measure

It bugs me when GW2 also does this with “over 12 million players” when actually it’s registered accounts.

I know people who have and use multiple POF accounts obtained freely, including a guy who literally has 83 accounts and uses them all every reset.

I’m not disputing that Palworld isn’t popular, but I hate when companies advertise with “40M players”

40M purchases is fine, which is very impressive for a paid game. If I buy a game, never play it or play it once, then I’m not ‘playing’ that game.

Thank you, I was mixing it up with the Vita

Can you still mass unlock trophies with these? I remember somebody telling me that your psn level has some benefits and a cap based on games platinumed?

No surprise. Technology has grown, as have office and desk based work.

I had an idea for a book some years ago. There’s an airborne virus that makes every human on the planet infertile.

The only way humans can reproduce is via cloning. Clones which are not only genetically modified for the best traits, but also improved. Each country gets an allocated amount.

There’s a catch - the clones are programmed to abide by rules (don’t be a dick, don’t harm others, be considerate of the environment and make every effort to improve it). If they stray too far, they shit out all of their organs and die.

Oh c’mon. This was hardly a last minute publisher decision following Sony’s announcement.

I’m not one of those people who pretends they will play a physical disc game for the rest of their life

I do however like physical for two reasons. Firstly, the price, how tf can you justify charging more when you are cutting out all of the middlemen and listing on your own online store. Secondly, resale. I can buy a game, play it and resell.

If the tradeoff on going digital was that games were 50% cheaper, then I’d be happy. I wouldn’t have to hoard games and I’d have the convenience of digital.

How do they know this? How would you even measure temperature past a certain point

The difference is even now people are talking about the horrific stories of Nazi Germany

This will just be forgotten

Overhyped and overpriced

Then there’s Rockstar as an employer, terrible customer service, greedy and clearly exploit their staff from the UK union claims

This could be the greatest game ever created and I won’t buy it because of the company and also pricing

I was raised by athiests, but neither parent gave any indication that they were and let me make my own opinions and decisions.

In fact, when I was young I actually went to church due to there being a free minibus, along with a youth club for any children.

It was around the age where I realised the tooth fairy and Santa Claus wasn’t real, that I came to my senses and realised that magic sky gods, bible magic etc was a load of crap as well
