It was announced in early 2019 that Ubisoft was partnering with Atlas Entertainment to adapt Skull and Bones into a television show.

One time i prank called a bear buildin workshop and said I wanted my mamaws ashes put in a teddy from where she loved them things so well... The woman on the phone did not skip a beat. She just said, "Brang her on down here. We've did it before."
A short hike is a kid / mom game. Mostly kid.

There was that one walky sim coming out where your mom is Keri Russell but Steve Gaynor was canceled and so is the game now probably.

Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.

Motto posted:

They've also canned 7 unannounced games in the past year due to "surprisingly slower" sales. Games getting canned early in dev is pretty normal, but still

I wonder what surprisingly slower sales means. What did Ubisoft put out last year? Mario and Rabbids, Just Dance, and some Assassin’s Creed dlc/rereleases? I wonder how much junk they had in their portfolio that they could cut 7 and still focus on their tent poles.

If there is one it’s probably in the dedicated retro games forum, which is under the main Video Games

Make sure you're running the nightly build of the PS3 emulator. But also, the Last of Us is marked as a game that you can get in-game with, but has problems and likely can't really be played from start to finish. No one is bothering with this one because it's on modern systems and soon is releasing for PC. Also read this https://wiki.rpcs3.net/index.php?title=The_Last_of_Us it might be helpful.

I mean the RPCS3 Wiki says this

    The Last of Us can be played from start to finish, but requires a good CPU and using RPCS3's patches (especially MLAA patch) for serviceable performance.

okay fair enough. I didn't bother to read up on the latest info. :P PS3 emulation advances rapidly.

Something about an unimplemented syscall, I'm not on that PC now but I'll try this and see if that helps:

Whether I have a "good CPU" is another matter of course

It doesn't surprise me that TLOU is doing well since it's the kind of game that's custom made for serial TV. I'd be more interested to know how they made it feel non-derivative since without the video gamey elements it's kind of like "The Road but with Zombies"
