This is less present in Curb, because Larry David is rich enough that most of his technology feels like the kind of thing I would be using now, with a few exceptions. Right now, I bet the Hollywood elite are playing a Zelda game from a console that hasn't even been released yet. Their kids are playing the 5DS in the backseat of their flying cars.

Rupert Friend looks better than Timothy Olyphant but it still looks pretty goofy.

a pro hitman player would never get involved in a firefight in a city street broad daylight

really a hitman movie would just be a heist movie except somebody gets murdered instead of robbed

I bet they'll actually do a decent job on the casting, except for Link, because there is nobody who can play a character who is the embodiment of a player avatar, so any choice they make will be awkward.

Pokemon is about as derivative as Call of Duty is. The only reason people don't notice is because the series doesn't get an annual release.

Buying a Double Fine early access game is probably not a good idea

The opening kill of The Mechanic is basically the closest thing to an accurate Hitman movie.

Supposedly Interstellar Marines is allright but I'm dubious.

It's free for a few days, so I downloaded it. The single player, at least, is a complete hot mess... it feels like System Shock 2 without the inventory system, and the levels and artwork look like it too. (And perform like it too -- I was dropping down to sub-60fps in outdoor environments, then going back up to 200+ in indoor.) 1999 is truly alive and well.

It seems like its selling point is to be a scifi spin on Rainbow Six. All the guns are extremely deadly, so you have to be reliant on stealth and carefully plan your kills. Unfortunately, the stealth aspect of the game isn't very impressive, and neither is the AI on the computer combatants -- they'll detect you and blap you even if you're sitting in perfect darkness 100 yards away.

I deleted it after playing through the tutorial, one of the single player missions, and half of a multiplayer game.

yes

it is one of the few genuinely excellent and challenging and fun early access games

and it is even getting reasonably quick development on the remaining stuff

the base game is there, they will just be adding a few more classes/dungeons

tbh if they didn't put it in early access and just called it a released game it would still be worth it

Half-Minute Hero and its sequel were good games, the multiplayer mode of the second game was fun, and I'm sad that you guys let the thread for those games die so quickly.
