Any chance you've played Helldivers through both? I have my deck docked to the living room TV and it works ok for the most part, but occasionally the frame rate just shits the bed or the graphics get super wonky until I toggle between full-screen and windowed-borderless a few times. I'm...

Keep in mind that immunizations were done by state, and they didn't have to follow CDC guidance - what's true for you isn't going to be true for the next poster. In Florida, they didn't open up vaccines for the immunocompromised until a week before the general public was able to get them...

How so? My 2-door Jeep averages 220 miles per tank, and it basically sets the bar for off-road capable vehicles. Yeah, I can pack a jerry can and they can't, but that's only going to add ~30 miles.

It's a reference to his giant orange Reece's mug, not a prison rape reference:

Quality puns like this are half the reason I read Ars. Bravo, sir.

Great review, always love seeing sim coverage (I actually bought the Slaw Viper after reading your last review). Have you ever thought about doing a writeup of your whole setup?

I just looked, and some preorders like the new Spider-Man game are "sold out." Makes me wonder if they're artificially limiting stock to save cash.

Speaking as a UX designer, icons are the least important thing in the world to me (especially since they don't localize worth a damn). This kind of visual design refresh usually happens when a c-level see's something shiny and declares from on high that their company must adopt it too.

Just curious, did Ars or any other major gaming site call Murray/HG out on their promises vs what they were seeing prior to release? I remember a lot of positive coverage from everywhere, but not any publications posting negative coverage until after the game went live. I'm only human though...

Halo 3.5, aka Halo ODST, would like to have a word with you about it owning the best story, storytelling and dialog.

Actually, Microsoft owns or has a controlling stake in Tyler (I forget which - years ago I worked for a competitor). I'm kinda surprised that wasn't mentioned in the story.

Star Citizen, Elite Dangerous, Mechwarrior Online, Hawken, GTA V (before the console versions existed), and pretty much anything with "sim" or "racing" in the title or tagline. Lots of games do it, it's just rarely listed as a feature.

I honestly can't tell if you're for or against them, as this argument works both ways :D

I owned one as well, and after the apex seal blew for the 4th time (while driving it home from the dealership from getting it fixed for the third time no less) at 45k miles, I was done with the car. Their track record in hot climates was horrendous (I live in FL), and the reliability was so poor...

...or a nuke, or a nuka-cola. The point is there's another video shot much closer that's being described quite differently. Maybe instead of acting like the internet for once we should put down our pitchforks for five seconds and wait for the other video. Or, you know, act like this...

No, it doesn't - it shows one arm, with the right 1/3 of the victim behind a pole. You can't see his arm or shoulder at all, and a good part of his chest is covered as well. Until I read the story and watched it again I thought the same thing.

So there's a second video, shot much closer that supposedly shows the victim waving a knife around when shot (as opposed to having his hands up empty): http://www.cnn.com/2015/09/02/us/san-an ... index.html The story also talks about how they initially tried to tase him first but it had no...

I could really give a shit about the XLB/PSN stuff, but getting probation for swatting someone is crap. He sent armed men looking for a fight into a house for the lulz? Fuck him, he should do some time.

I actually wouldn't have nearly as much of a problem with it if they were transparent and honest. The problem is they're neither - one update will promise to improve things, set forth a timeline and a list of folks to get their printers or refunds in the next two weeks, then it's radio silence...

Congrats man, you drank the kool-aid. For what it's worth I'm glad you got a printer, but I doubt you got it in the order that was promised when they were sold (backer #134 that was part of the early bird group here and I chose a cold bed - still no printer). In January, they blamed Paypal for...
