Yeah, same, finished a few days ago and enjoyed it. The story was absolutely horrible, but the gameplay more than made up for it. I plan on going through and beating it on the hardest mode as well as trying out the other modes.

I agree. Story was horrible. I didn't even know if there was a story. :laugh:

Only on my second run through did I realise there's ammo caches at certain points which completely fill up your ammo and charge :fail:

Hah, it took me a few acts to realize what those did. They don't completely fill it up, though, they just give you a small amount of ammo or charges (for some reason it was always for my right-side equipped weapon, too).

I realized that in that on chapter 6 where you rescue the general with sniping target above.

Awesome game so far. Profanity is a bit over the top and doesn't blend into the game well, saying the f-bomb and other obscenities just for the sake of saying them. So far my favorite thing about the game is the gameplay and ways to kill enemies.

No, not the flashing ones.

You know the level that the demo gave? With the lift you can drop onto the skulls? Well right after you walk through the clock hologram there is an amo cache - it fills everything up to max.

Yeah..language is over the top.. too much d*** and "unnecessary" words

If I'm not mistaken, that was one of the selling points of the game. Should've known that going in. Everything about the game is supposed to be OTT.

QTF!

Part of the appeal of the game is how everything is OTT. Fits it perfectly, IMO. One could turn off the language, though.

:blink:

The flashing ones never filled me up completely.

People buying this game then complaining about the content. Jesus wept.

Do you put your hand into flames and complain when you get burned too?

No one minds the language, I sure don't. But there is too many obscenities being shouted that don't seem to correlate with the game, just for the sake of it. A little less over the top and I'd be happier, I don't mind the gameplay though which is an A+ in my book.

hey Jonathan, way to go with the spoiler there! And he ain't supposed to be Chinese..what's next, you're going to call him Chinaman Joe? You must be channeling General Serrano.

and the language is fine, quite well written and witty for a game like this, some of the lines are quite funny. the whole running gag with ###### is pretty good.

If you want less profanity in a game, may I suggest sim city?

No.

At least in Duke Nukem and in Prey the profanity correlates with what is happening in the game, such as performing certain actions. This is just spouting profanity randomly, sometimes for no reason, just to say it. I think this comic sums up the way I and others feel about the game:

So you're a twelve year old girl? That explains it, true.

Trolls.. :rolleyes:

What does your comment have to do with what I posted?

I said I don't mind the profanity, just that it needs to correlate with what is happening in the game, the profanity just doesn't really fit in. I can't think of many games with such overuse of profanity, any profanities used usually correlate with what is happening. There's no reason to get all bitchy and single me out for pointing out a rather minor issue with the game, it's not like I am saying it's a bad game or that it sucks so no need to go on the defense.

    • To be fair, it wasn't going anywhere. Even when Windows Phone could run Android APKs, Google didn't want any of it so it'd never work and the same thing happened with Windows. It was never about the store or it's users, it was always the developers and who they aligned to.
    • Wake me up when this comes to PC. Until then... zzzzzzzz....
    • I was expecting the end of the world to happen before this game or elder scroll 6 to come out.
    • OpenAI and Broadcom unveil Jalapeño, a new AI chip built for LLM inference by Pradeep Viswanathan Image by OpenAI Thanks to the exponential growth of ChatGPT and other LLM-based applications, NVIDIA has grown from a $200 billion company into the first public company to reach a $5 trillion market cap. Even though hyperscalers such as Google and Amazon have their own mature AI accelerators, NVIDIA still dominates the AI infrastructure market with multiple generations of GPUs. Microsoft, OpenAI, and Meta remain among NVIDIA’s largest customers, while Google and Amazon continue to be significant NVIDIA customers as they serve AI workloads for customers on their cloud platforms. Today, OpenAI and Broadcom announced Jalapeño, OpenAI’s first custom “Intelligence Processor” designed specifically for large language model inference. The new chip is the first product from a multi-generation compute platform being developed by OpenAI. OpenAI highlighted that Jalapeño was built from the ground up for current and future LLM workloads, rather than being a general-purpose accelerator adapted for AI. Despite heavy competition from Gemini, Claude, Copilot, and others, ChatGPT remains the most used AI platform in the world. OpenAI mentioned that it leveraged its knowledge of how its models and products run at scale, including ChatGPT, Codex, the API, and future agentic AI systems, to design this new chipset. Its chip architecture reduces data movement while balancing compute, memory, and networking resources. Jalapeño will be deployed in production systems starting in late 2026; however, engineering samples are already running machine learning workloads in OpenAI’s labs at production target frequency and power. According to its internal testing, OpenAI claims this chip can deliver “substantially better” performance per watt, and a detailed technical report is expected in the coming months. While OpenAI designed the chip, Broadcom handled silicon implementation and networking technologies, including Tomahawk networking silicon, and Celestica is assisting with board, rack, and system-level integration. OpenAI pointed out that Jalapeño went from initial design to manufacturing tape-out in just nine months, which it claims is the fastest ASIC development cycle achieved for a high-performance advanced semiconductor. The company attributed the speed of development to its own LLMs, which were used during the chip design and optimization process. Broadcom CEO Hock Tan stated that the company's plan is to deploy the Jalapeño platform at a gigawatt scale with Microsoft and other partners starting in 2026. With Jalapeño, OpenAI joins Google, Microsoft, and Amazon to become a full-stack AI player. The company already develops models and products, and is now moving deeper into infrastructure, including chips, kernels, networking, scheduling, and deployment systems.
    • I'm aware. That information should have been included in the article, making it more complete and information.
