Properly done remasters of old games

I thought the Microsoft acquisiton of Bethesda was huge at $7 billion, but I'm gobsmacked at this deal which I never would have imagined happening. Definitely an interesting thing to happen with the current controversies with Activision, but their IP is worth an absolute mint. Crazy times we live in.

"Catering to China" is just the excuse lazy and pozzed soydevs use. For decades, the industry has released localized versions in different regions. I have no problem with them releasing globo[REDACTED] versions in other parts of the world, but there's no excuse for not releasing uncut versions in the alleged free world.

and yet their 'remastered' releases over about the last half dozen years have all the female characters 'de-feminized', along with removing skeletons, and other bits - like wall art - of anything "they" deem inappropriate. "They" know what's best for everyone; free world be damned.
If it were only released in muslim concentration camp central, i wouldn't care.

Micro$oft bought out activist/blmizzard so they could make the i.p.'s xbox/gamepass exclusives.
The socialist-facist soydevs in the studios are going to keep their jobs. Firing limp-wristed pink-haired racist cucks isn't on micro$oft's radar. They'll simply shift some of the leadership around and call it good.

Well, here is what WSJ has to say … more or less competing with Sony and capture some of the Pay-To-Win cash cow. – I doubt anyone would dish out 75 billion just to make actual new good games, or upgrade older one’s, (and no point repeating Master Forge)

That's what I'm thinking. We'll see.

It seems the Nvidia acquisition of Arm holdings hasn't gone through:

Probably not a surprise considering the opposition to it going ahead.

Best wishes for Twitter with Elon Musk, but Europe/Canada are already in Censorship mode against Free Speech, and will force Twitter to stick with the program, or be completely blocked. It was no accident Trump was banned. The Great Reset i.e. WEF, can not afford facts to spread. Covid Con, Ukrainian War etc.

Fuck all of this social network shit. I’ll stick with one on one. True Freedom of Speech and no one can tamper or rat you out for stating and collecting facts. Yes, instead of thousands likes you get just one beer, and a pat on your shoulder. The price you pay for being in the real world again. :P

I hope not. Atari has done nothing good with its IPs.

If anything it's more bad news for any future remasters of any older games with Atari at the top, now.
