do you even have one good reason why the cheapest version should get extra content free (being a whining **** doesn't count btw)? not supporting ****ty, overpriced dlc btw just that if one platform gets it free all should or if one pays then all should

There aren't royalty costs on the PC, and the PC version generally gets the shaft in terms of quality nowadays. Furthermore, PC gamers have become accustomed to not paying for DLC; games that give out free DLC typically sell better (see: the early Unreal Tournament games, for example, and almost any other game that offered free map packs). There are no restrictions in terms of quality control that PC DLC has to go through as well, meaning they don't have to spend money having to redo areas if they don't meet the requirements of Live or PSN... I'd say those are some good reasons it should get extra content free, just off the top of my head.

no royalty cost is why pc games are always cheaper, i still dont see why they should get content console gamers pay for for free. loyalty hardly matters IW/Activision shat on pc owners with mw2 but they still lapped it up, to prove that point someone posted a picture of the steam dedicated server protest group and almost all of them were playing the game :huh:. i also doubt console quality control is really that strict or expensive (compared to what a game like MW2 makes from its dlc)

Whew, really had a good time today and yesterday. My friends and I started playing Team Deathmatch Express instead of Domination. While I don't get as many kills with TDME and my KDR is less, my friends have helped me rack up a 28 game win streak. On average, the skill level seems to be lower which has made things a lot easier.

I hate to say, but I think I've got bored of MW2. Just when I was starting to get better at it as well.

It's just you can only play the online for so long without getting bored, and unless you're a COD ######, there's really nothing here for anybody else. I think that it's just an epically average game and was far too overhyped. It's as though the devs don't need to try hard anymore because they know, no matter how bad or good they make it, it'll still make millions for them. Which I suppose is good business for them, but that's not what games should be about.

Went back to Uncharted 2, playing through the story on hard.

Yeah, my bad. Blind, that is :D Was on the previous page.

I'm close but I doubt I'll ever get it. Right now I'm missing airplane graveyard and the three from echo class.

Echo just requires lots of planing and tactical stuff to take them down. More of setup and then retreat blasting them juggernauts. And lots of luck :D

    • Hey Google, these are the Gemini features I want in 2026

      By Snake Doc · Posted

      I used a Pixel 10 Pro XL when it first came out for about 8 months. When I first got it, it was using Google assistant and that was fast, when asking it to call somone etc. Then it automatically switched with some update to Gemini. Doing even the simplist of things like asking it to call someone in my contacts was soooooo slow compared to Google assistant. I guess it had to go out to the cloud to do that? Back on iPhone and while Siri is dumb right now, it does do those simple things, like call someone, set a timer, star the stop watch etc, really fast. That an while I like Google Material Design 3 over iOS 26, they Pixel 10 Pro XL was so slow in comparison to the iPhone 17 Pro I am using.

      I use Gemini in my rotation of AI clients...that work pays for. It is good at most things, better than copilot for imgage searching and making images, worse at writing vs Claude and way worse at hadling technical issues when it comes to Azure stuff. I also use YT premium and maps. Anything else Google is a pass for me. I have now seen multiple people locked out of their Google accounts for reasons that are just very vauge.
    • Microsoft is building an AI datacenter that "uses less water than a fast food restaurant"

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Microsoft is building an AI datacenter that "uses less water than a fast food restaurant" by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced plans to build a new datacenter campus in Pecos, Texas, as the company continues to invest billions in AI infrastructure. The new facility, called project Kilby, will reportedly have a capacity of 2 gigawatts and will be one of the largest single capacity additions in the company’s history. To power the campus, Microsoft signed a 20-year deal with Chevron to supply natural gas from the Permian Basin, America's largest oil field. This deal is set to become the largest collaboration to date between a U.S. oil and gas giant and Big Tech. It’s no secret that Big Tech has often been criticized for exploiting natural resources for its AI developments. Microsoft is trying to mitigate some of that negative consensus by promising to build its own power supply for the new datacenter, independent of the public grid. The Pecos datacenter will be powered by a power plant hub, built by Chevron, with up to 2.5 gigawatts of gas-fired capacity, with potential to scale to up to 5 gigawatts. The facility will include at least seven GE Vernova turbines, with first power potentially coming online as early as late 2027 or early 2028. The power plant hub is part of an approximately $7 billion investment by Chevron, making it one of the largest dedicated energy projects tied to a single datacenter campus in the U.S. Microsoft hasn’t publicly disclosed the amount it’s investing in the new datacenter. Microsoft has also committed to implementing a closed-loop cooling system that will only require an initial water charge to operate. The company said that “the total lifecycle water use of this datacenter is only a fraction of that consumed annually by a typical fast-food restaurant.” What the press release doesn’t mention, however, is how much water the natural gas plant itself will consume, or how a 20-year fossil fuel commitment squares with the company's pledge to be carbon negative by 2030. The construction of the new datacenter should provide over 6,000 construction jobs at peak build-out, and create hundreds of operational job roles once the facility is built. Via: Reuters
