I mean, if you're a successful actress and you go out of the house in a skirt and without underwear, knowing that paparazzi are just waiting for opportunities like this and that it has happened many times before, then there's really nobody you can blame for it but yourself.

Thanks for the writeup. My dumb rear end sees game glitches and just goes "why can't they just not let objects clip into each other, problem solved" but I know from experience, it's way more complicated than that, and lots of things have to clip together to make it look right, so weird things happen sometimes.

I'm working on adding dazzle camouflage to my ship game. To get the right look, everything on the ship needs to be camouflaged, except I got a little overzealous with "everything".

Bonus: when the ship moves, the texture...doesn't.

Things you wish someone had video of but instead you have a workaround note from the dev:

There is a known rendering issue where a "black blob" expands from the skybox and clouds the player's view. If the player stays in one spot and spins around rapidly on the left-to-right axis (instead of rolling), this will temporarily fix the issue.

I want to be excited about this but I know it's only happening because EA saw Tony Hawk Remake, Skater XL and Session's console early access launches and just went 'Yup, I guess it's safe enough to make a new one'

This could mean a lot of genuine glitches, because earlier Skate games didn't have glitches as such, just hilarious ragdolls and opportunities to mess with the physics, plus that delightful metallic "CLANK!" sound when characters would hit certain objects.

I mean... yeah? The reason they dragged rear end to begin with was skateboarding games dying out as a genre, and the Tony Hawk games of that period doing horribly. The genre's crawling back out of the grave now, so they're doing it again.

The last thps was 5 years ago, and was really bad at launch. No clue if they ever patched it up, but since it was s rush job to get it out the door before Activision lost the license I doubt it.

I know nick sucks as a person, but this shows just how bad the game was. Activision had to put out a day one 8 gig patch to actually give you access the game, as the disks only shipped with the tutorial and the create a skate park feature.

For what it's worth, the Nick situation happened right around when The Adventure Zone got REAL drat big, and I think soon after was when he started a new podcast with his wife that's still going. Griffin's own corner of podcasting has been very kind to him, and while I miss the willingness he had to do neat gaming stuff at Polygon, I don't feel sad for him anymore. He's doing good.

It had good points and bad points. Personally every time they were loving with the major, I loved it incredibly.

Though I'm sad that they didn't actually make the Vape Ape segment.

I unironically love destiny’s obsession with jumping puzzles & they’re a great way to give you a chillout break in the middle of raids and dungeons. when I am playing hunter and can just triple jump. I loving hate the warlock floaty float where the moment you have downward momentum you have no way to reverse it so if you drop off the side of a platform, all you can do is a slow sink of shame to your demise
