You’re framing this as if specifically those critical of Biden over his arms deals with Israel are secretly pleased Trump is making shit worse. Nobody on the left thinks that Trump getting involved will somehow be a positive influence to end the genocide in Gaza. Can we just take a minute and recognize that? If you’ve seen otherwise, call that shit out by all means. But your initial comment reads like a smear campaign.

Yeah, weird. Let me get our “Genocide Joe” CEO to make a statement about this extremely recent news that most people haven’t heard yet.

It’s so disappointing watching liberals continue to rally behind this old, rotten bastard and defend his rampant and wildly unpopular complicity of an actual genocide when he’s not even the one running for reelection. Bad faith? Wanting our money to stop funding the wholesale slaughter of innocent people is acting in bad faith because you don’t like the nickname? If the mere association of Biden’s name with the result of his own foreign policy sounds so bad that Democrats are afraid it will make his VP lose the election, maybe he should take the fucking hint and change his policy. If the party doesn’t like the name “Genocide Joe” then just stop committing genocide. Very fucking simple.

And if you want my opinion on Trump, he should be in prison several times over, including for this exact reason. Why would anyone wanting an end to war think otherwise? You absolute clown.

What does this even mean? Leftists want an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza. The only way that happens is if the US stops funding their genocide campaign. If Biden (or Harris/Trump as the next president) had any interest, they could just do that. They won’t, but they could.

If you think leftists want Trump to sabotage the minute possibility that Biden will finally do the right thing, then you fundamentally misunderstand the situation.

Explain that to the average car buyer who sees the lower number and rules it out.

Sometimes I forget the Steam Deck has a touch screen. I definitely wouldn’t want to support the Deck one handed for more than a few minutes.

Maybe I don’t play long enough sessions for this to be a concern, but I just…hold the Steam Deck. Elbows on the couch is a pretty solid mount lol.

Oh, I had to go look up what Evercade is. I thought this was going to be the rumored remasters of these games.

Evercade seems interesting, but it’s kind of a strange concept. Like a generalized nostalgia for a console that never existed. I think if I’m not playing games on their original hardware, I would rather emulate on a retro handheld than pretend that I’m getting an authentic retro experience off a ROM on a newly produced cartridge for a modern device. This is like a compromise, I guess? Anyone here liking Evercade?

It’s like he wrote an already weird sex scene description, then right clicked every word and chose the last synonym on the list.

Holy shit, that’s a good burn.

The Oracle games had GBA releases? Wow, that’s news to me.

This is the second plug-in I’ve read about in the last two weeks that causes major system crashes on the Steam Deck. Why are these little add on tools breaking the whole OS? That’s nuts.

Definitely waiting for the Miyoo A30 to get Onion.

Psychonauts 2. Was a huge fan of the original on PS2 and I can’t believe it’s taken me years to try the sequel. The animation, level design, and writing are all at the level of quality and creativity that I wanted to see videogames progress to some day when I was a kid. This is a playable DreamWorks film.

Or just learn what liberals actually stand for. It all makes sense then.

I don’t even remember the last time Stephanie Sterling did anything like this, so it was just a weird blip. Not that she doesn’t goof a bunch. Still a great channel to stay up to date on the things that actually matter in the games industry instead of the usual hype machine shit. The only thing I don’t care for on the show is the wrestling stuff and when the editor does some schtick.

Ooh, I want an 8bitdo Steam controller.

Average IOF soldier.

The obvious answer would be Black & White and its sequel, which for many is the definitive god game. You’re an untouchable god interacting with your world and physically manipulating it with your hand, but you also have a giant animal familiar that you raise to also interact with the people. You create miracles and either help or terrorize the population into following you. Not much combat if that’s what you’re looking for, but it’s a unique game that unfortunately has not seen a worthy successor in 20+ years.

I’m sure Nintendo intentionally throttles the Switch to improve battery life, preserve the integrity of the hardware, and provide a consistent experience. Not to defend their decision at all. I just think it’s funny how people tend to react to learning about how much the Switch is artificially held back, as if Nintendo is just being stupid about the potential of their own console. I think it’s very likely they did plenty of testing and concluded that the specs they targeted provided the best balance of positive overall user experience with the least amount of complications for developers. And it clearly worked because it’s one of the best selling consoles ever with a massive catalogue of titles. The small handful of power users who want a Switch 4K Pro are just destined to buy a Steam Deck anyway. Nintendo doesn’t want anything to do with that niche group of gamers lol.

I re-played the first a few years back and it’s one of the very few games I’ve 100%'d. Despite the years long gap since my last time playing, it still felt like I just jumped back into the world. So far I’m liking the new characters, but I do miss the original cast of camp kids.

I will say the constant references to the in-between VR exclusive game is frustrating. That feels like a crucial bit of story being dangled over my head that I know I’m never going to see because a VR headset is just not in the cards for me for at least the next few years. Maybe I just need to watch a Let’s Play.
