Is this a photo essay or something then? It could be a good subject: the passive reactions of people to an odd and slightly unpleasant situation.

A few years ago, a goon with no legs and a skateboard traveled the world, took pictures of people staring at him, and made a coffee table book.

I disapprove of what you say, and I will defend your death because you have no right to say it!

I think a good prank would be to hand someone a sex pillow at a bus stop and say "hey can you hold this for a second" and then just walk away while someone films their reaction.

This is funny to me a brit because I constantly mis hear americans pronouncing "t" as "d". For instance I used to think it was called a playstation "vida" instead of "vita" because of listening to podcasts and not seeing it written out.

The cover is priced at 100,000 yen (about US$805). Since it's just a cover, it poses another unique problem: how do you stuff it? The average body pillow is around 4.5 feet, so any Miia fans are going to need about five body pillows to fill it.

Anyone stuffing that wouldn't use five body pillows. They'd use five bodies.

The DLC file they put out originally was just 2GB of 0s in a text file. They fixed it pretty quickly obviously. Specifically the DLC was Lair of the Shadow Broker.

I guess the steam installer is about 8.7mb and that's literally the only thing on the disk. That's why that picture shows the whole disk as only using 8.7mb.

I'd forgotten how many bytes were to a megabyte :downsgun: I misread it as there being 9 gigs of space on the disk, but somehow all but 8.7mb were apparently empty.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's illegal. Relatedly, is there a link or something to the story behind all the Konami drama? A friend of mine is super excited for Phantom Pain and I'd rather know ahead of time if he's going to be heartbroken.

It would be great if the rest of the disc was a movie trolling Konami made by Hideo Kojima himself that he put into the gold master copy somehow.

Would you pay $50-60 (or whatever retail is these days for physical copies) for a disk with literally nothing but an installation program for Steam?

You pay 50-60 for a 25 digit steam key essentially, what exactly is the problem?

if your question is 'is this thing a major corporation is doing illegal?' the answer is no because they pay lawyers to make it legal

Call me crazy, but if I'm shelling out for a physical copy, that would be because I don't want to deal with Steam. If you have to download it via Steam anyway, why bother with dangling the physical copy at us? That's the point I'm trying to get at.

If the installer comes preconfigured to download and install the game, then you're all set and there's no difference from getting the game on the CD directly. Unless you have no internet connection, in which case you are legitimately screwed.
