The pirate code is really more of a guideline, than actual rules.

I know it's a household name in the US but I can't even tell from the boxart what sport "madden" is. Is that dude Mr Madden?

There's an arrow pointing from John Madden to the word Madden so, like, it's John Madden. He used to coach professional football but was best known for his commentating. He died December 2021 and the 23 version is the earliest they could've put him on the cover so there you go.

In Madden 23 you play as John Madden, using a multiple choice conversation prompt system to commentate on the game. If you say the wrong things you get shamed and fired.

It's football. No, not that football.

But that just means you play VS less and that's not good.

You should not post about the game because it is AIDS and results in people posting long rear end essays which say things like "capitalist hell world" in them and also because a British person made it

This Literally the only good post I have seen about this stupid game after watching people bicker about for months.

That's hilarious. My own schadenfreude is that I picked up Totally Reliable Delivery Service last year to play with my partner, we hated it.
Turns out it's a complete hit at my kid's school because it's really wacky and you can jump into online multiplayer really easily. My 8yo loves it and he doesn't care about actually delivering packages at all. I guess €7.50 well spent after all. :shobon:

I remember completing that game by flying a helicopter to the start of each mission and sticking the delivery in it, thereby skipping most of the wacky physics :cheeky:

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."
Hi, not sure if this is the right thread, anyone else having issues with the Back That Thing Up achievement for my gamepass dog? He's showing up as only having sniffed 15 other dog asses but im sure there were more than 15 dogs at the dog park. Is it possible some mutt breeds are not being counted properly by Microsoft as real dogs? Thanks in advance

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.
I have two Xboxes at home, will I receive two dogs or do I need to set one as my Home dog

Does Rocket League have server connection issues? For the first 10 or 15 levels everything was fine but now EVERY time I play is a mess. It's constantly giving me slow network or disconnected network icons and the ball/cars jump all over the place. It's been doing it for about a week.

My ping is excellent, network stats are all excellent and no issues with regular internet or other games. Just Rocket League. I'm on Google Fiber.

Also worse thing about Rocket League is it's weird partying UI and other things. Once I started some competitive games and quick joined a party. I could not for the life of me figure out how to get out of it before the next game started (get out of the party OR competitive play). It's so stupidly convoluted (but so is most game UIs in general... the amount of options and passes and seasons and poo poo to do is crazy)

On Mission 8 now of Hi-Fi Rush. I am enjoying the story, music, characters, and combat, but I wish the levels were not so padded. They are too long, with a lot of the same puzzles, and platforming happening too often. I wish the levels were more unique and shorter. I find this game getting exhausting after each level and I need to take a break and come back to it the next day.

Tortuga isn't bad - it has the overworld map of Pirates! mixed with the combat of that old cardstock ship game.

I mean, it's not good, but I'll take a lot from a pirate game.

GaaS in a nutshell. Free-to-play games kind of have an excuse for it but when full priced games have all that poo poo... :sigh:

Atleast for the most part it's usually just cosmetics so you can skip past it all

It shouldn't have taken 3 chapters and over 5 hours but I'm finally able to do things in Yakuza Like a Dragon and it's fun now.

Substory spoilers: I just tried to assist in a birthing but it turned out to be a Yakuza family doing Adult Baby stuff. Me and a new father were dumbfounded, so we kicked their asses! But then the Yakuza adult babies and their wetnurse helped save his marriage. He sprinted to go have a heart to heart with his wife while me and the babies drank a celebratory milk out of baby bottles. Afterwards, they accosted me and forced to wear an adult-sized baby's diaper. I can now summon their adult-baby family Patriach to fight for me, using my phone's Poundtown feature.. It's one of the best games I've ever played.
