Why do people always bitch about little ps5 exclusives but conveniently never mention xbox having literally none

Like it's always haha ps5 only has timed stuff and a lot of actual exclusives are multigen or going on PC! Meanwhile xbox gets nothing but gamepass praise.

If you think Canada is just going to let him go after investigation you dont know the hate Canada has for self defense.

Nice to see people only caring about this now when Canadas laws have been shit for decades.

Death penalty.

How is the american flag a red flag?

The creepy bumping of the other half-dozen or so topics about the same shit begs to differ.

Why in God's name do you like to bump topics with this kind of subject matter so much

What the actual fuck. That can't be clint eastwood... can it?

apparently the actors who played Romeo & Juliet were also lied to about their nudity being in the movie.

the one made in the 60s.

I never understood how Justin Roiland became famous and successful in the first place. What did Dan Harmon see in him?

He's a terrible artist, he can't write anything decent on his own, he's an abysmal voice actor and by all accounts isn't professional around anyone.

something like it happened again like less than a week later lol

They're also noted as being the most vitriolic and negative fan base of the bunch. There have been multiple articles from members of the industry that complain about how awful Playstation fans are.

Well, the weird thing about that... According to the arrest warrant, the other guys seemed to have been deliberately doing this late at night and shooting high up on the windows and walls. Solomon Pena wasn't happy with that, so he decided to participate in one of the shootings himself. He wanted them to do it when people would be awake and walking around and actually aim for them.

It's weird as hell.

So they've released Solomon Pena's arrest warrant... He paid them $500 to do one of the shootings, and they would split the money between 3 people

WTF

They were willing to murder people for $166 and some change

A New Orleans Police Department employee moonlighting as an Uber driver was stabbed to death in the parking lot of a Harvey motel Thursday afternoon by a man Sheriff Joe Lopinto said, just wanted to kill someone, did so, and then filmed the aftermath and posted it to social media.
Yolanda Dillion, 54, a 10-year fiscal budget analyst for the NOPD was picking up a fare in New Orleans for a trip to Harvey.
According to Lopinto, the suspect, identified as 29-year-old Brandon Jacobs, told them that he woke up Thursday morning and decided he wanted to kill someone. He apparently planned to kill the first Uber driver he encountered but realized he needed a ride back to the place he was staying and so killed Ms. Dillion, who was providing the ride back to the Travelodge in Jefferson Parish in the 2200 block of the West Bank Expressway.
Lopinto said that Dillion was stabbed to death before dropping Jacobs off and that Jacobs then just walked back to his room at the motel.
"It took place in the vehicle,"' said Lopinto. "A major stab wound that incapacitated her almost immediately."
Lopinto said detectives worked with Uber to get information on the fare picked up by Ms. Dillion and then made the arrest. The sheriff said Jacobs simply said that he woke up that day and decided to kill someone.
I didnt pick her, Lopinto said he told investigators. Uber picked her." Lopinto said she was the random person who picked him up that day.
Lopinto said Jacobs posted the video of Ms. Dillion dying to Facebook but the sheriff's office contacted the social media company and said the post was quickly taken down.
"Luckily, he does not have a lot of followers," he added.
He is being held on a second-degree murder count.
NOPD Superintendent Shaun Ferguson said Ms. Dillion was important to the department.
"Our team is taking it pretty hard," he said. "She will be dearly missed. She was quiet. She was humble. She was a quiet giant."

There's a bit of this already in The Last of Us games, but it's typically used to get a safe code or something and it's much more straight forward than FromSoft.

It is cool to see homes kind of make sense in the world though. Like you can tell a family lived in a house because there's broken kids toys in a room and then a parents bedroom across the hall.

ND already does this pretty well with TLoU games, tbh, with the logs, notes, environmental storytelling, etc., but I guess they could focus more on it.

it would be more interesting if it was somehow incorporated with the main narrative (on going story) than just the smaller story's that help establish the world.

By no means.

Uncharted and The Last of Us are known for their cinematic storytelling, but Naughty Dog's Neil Druckmann is becoming increasingly fascinated with more subtle worldbuilding. Speaking to The Washington Post, Druckmann said he's inspired by FromSoftware's minimalist storytelling in last year's Elden Ring.
"I'm more recently intrigued by stuff like Elden Ring and Inside that doesn't rely as much on traditional narrative to tell its story," Druckmann said. "Some of the best storytelling in The Last of Us is in the cinematics, but a lot of it is in gameplay, and moving around the space, and understanding the history of a space by just looking at it and examining it. To me, right now, that's some of the best joy I get out of games that trust their audience to figure things out. [Games] that don't hold your hand, that's the stuff I'm really intrigued by going forward."
FromSoftware and Naughty Dog's game design philosophies are polar opposites in a number of ways, but both studios have seen huge success. Given Naughty Dog's knack for curated, cinematic experiences. It's interesting to hear that Druckmann is drawn to Elden Ring, which cuts the player loose and doesn't seem to care what story beats the player picks up on.
Fans of The Last of Us may remember sequences that lean more heavily on environmental storytelling. For instance, in the original game, players can piece together the story of a sailor named Ish by picking up optional notes in one of the game's levels. Even though Naughty Dog has dabbled in environmental storytelling before, it seems the studio may lean harder into the concept in future games.
"That doesn't mean we will never have dialogue, or cutscenes, I think those are tools in your toolbox... And I think there's a way to push that stuff forward, at least for the kind of games we make at Naughty Dog. I'm really intrigued, again, never resting on our laurels and trying something a little bit new, a little bit different, that not everybody's going to like, but that's okay. And the stuff that we're working on now, I can tell you the teams are very excited by the different projects we have at Naughty Dog."

Okay. It's still probably the reason they're going for second degree murder though. Obviously there must be legal technicalities regarding the law that prosecutors are aware of and CE isn't.

I think the fact that he didn't specifically pick the victim is what makes it second degree, because there wasn't a clear premeditation

We are fortunate to know cause of death so soon. But I dont think you can pin this on Ellen he could have other stuff going on in life.
