Getting tired of untested vibecoded ports that are just buggy and because no experienced coders are around, they can't fix it? Never fear, as I have listed decomps and recomps done by actual people and it will continue expanding! If you know any, lemme know!

This makes me hopeful. This number is aspirational but nowhere near out of reach: a working professional could realistically cash out their 401k and buy off a public official. Owning a senator is more attainable for most Americans than home ownership.

Shenmue 3 assets shouldnt have been farmed out in order to mimic a modern game - The game should have looked like a low poly dreamcast pastiche that was a direct sequel. Even the weird eating-black-garlic-for-sustenance schtick would have been more acceptable under the umbrella of "homage".

btw that "Gaming 4 Democracy" thing they showed at Gamescom that's partnering with @gamesdonequick.com is run by a ""non-profit"" that's functionally just a puppet of the German government. Their idea of "democracy" is squashing support for Palestine under the guise of stopping anti-semitism.

Ladies and gentlemen,
Dear friends of the Foundation,

 

The terrorist attack by Hamas on Israel and its consequences, which can be felt up to Germany, shake us. We condemn all forms of anti-Semitism and join the statement of the broad alliance, which was published on 23 under the motto “Standing up against terror, hatred and anti-Semitism”. October has called for a protest in Berlin. Jewish life is part of Germany. "Never again" applies now and forever.

 

The strongest bulwark against hatred and discrimination is a free and democratic society, which, however, also recently gets cracks in Germany, as evidenced by the current center study of the Friedrich Ebert Foundation. To explore the question of how games can strengthen democracy, we have on 18 on the 18th. October together with the Bertelsmann Foundation invited to the first Roundtable Gaming for Democracy. We report more on this further in this issue.

Starbucks Workers United has officially called for consumers to boycott Starbucks. They have 3 primary demands: Finalize a union contract, improved pay/stability, and for Starbucks to stop violating federal labor law. www.boycottstarbucks.net
• Starbucks must finalize a fair union contract with 12,000 local baristas and growing.
• Workers must be able to survive on a Starbucks paycheck.
That starts with a union contract that locks in better pay, better staffing, and enough hours to live on.
• Starbucks has to stop breaking the law.
They remain the biggest violator of U.S. labor law in modern history.We, the 12,000 and growing members of Starbucks Workers United, call on everyone who stands with working people to boycott Starbucks until they finalize a contract with union baristas and stop union-busting.
What we're fighting for is simple: a minimum $17 per hour wage, enough hours to live on, better staffing in our stores, and basic workplace protections. Every year, our living costs rise but our wages don't keep up - a growing pressure many American workers are feeling as corporate greed accelerates unchecked in our country.
Starbucks is banking on customers' blind loyalty to the integrity and values this company once stood for in order to keep squeezing them for profits. At a time when working-class people across the country are struggling in a challenging economy, it is no longer possible to be both a Starbucks customer and in support of workers; choosing to spend money at Starbucks is choosing a law-breaking corporation over the baristas who make your coffee everyday exactly as you ask for it.
Starbucks has violated U.S. labor law more than any other company in modern history-the NLRB and its judges have found that Starbucks committed hundreds of labor violations and there are currently more than 550 unresolved unfair labor practice charges still pending against the company. Instead of finalizing a fair and reasonable union contract, Starbucks has repeatedly demonstrated a lack of care for the workers who fuel the company's profits by wasting millions of dollars on Al and technology that doesn't work, launching countless gimmicky drinks designed to distract from real problems, and inventing pointless policies that do nothing but make our jobs harder.
This ongoing, irrational behavior by Starbucks and its refusal to settle a fair union contract with workers leaves us with no other choice than to call for a boycott. We know when working people stand up together, we win.
No Contract? No Coffee.

I'd argue that, for the metrics, it's vastly MORE important that viewers turn this off. There's more viewers than streamers, so even if every streamer turned this off, if viewers don't, the executives can still claim that "most users don't care" and cram it down our throats even harder. Opt out.

There's nothing wrong with playing the critically acclaimed 10/10s. They tend to be loved for a reason! But many of them are rated so highly in part because they appeal to everyone. The 5s, 6s, and 7s? That's where you'll find many of the games that feel like they were made for you specifically.
