I have a couple thousand hours of play on Slay the Spire on my iPad. It’s such a perfect game for mobile. I play it on the plane, at night on work trips, been playing it again on vacation this week. Just a fantastic grab-it-and-go gaming experience.

Xbox has backwards compatibility for games all the way back to the original Xbox. Not only is there backwards compatibility, but pretty much all those old games also get HDR support and some of the big ones like Red Dead Redemption and Mass Effect also got 4k textures for 10+ year old games, free of charge (don’t have to buy a remaster, etc)

I never liked it in North America when I tried it for these reasons.

But then I had it in the south of France, and holy crap it was almost life-changing. I had ordered a meat dish as well and all I wanted to eat was the ratatouille! I can see why this dish is popular there, as it really depends on having high quality vegetables to make the dish sing.

I think of it like a a good steak. If your steak quality is poor, it will not be good on its own and should be used with additional sauces and flavours.

It’s one of the features I miss most from Apollo! It would preview the comment that’s a direct parent to the selected one. Great for the reading and comprehension experience across many use cases.

Even Microsoft agrees they’d prefer to do it by producing competitive games, which isn’t in question here though. The dispute is whether this gives Microsoft an anti-competitive monopoly.

Even though mergers of this size aren’t good for gamers, it doesn’t even put Microsoft anywhere near equal footing with Sony, never mind giving Microsoft a monopoly.

Because Sony is so far ahead in the console battle that it’s important they have competition (Nintendo is not competition).

There’s a push and pull here in terms of exclusives being bad but also having Sony becoming a monopoly / having no completion would also be bad.

I don’t think that makes you a purist, I think that just means you have ocd or something 😅

Everyone is entitled to their opinion but I personally think there are way more important reasons for the developers and users as to PWA or native.

I love the frequency of updates wefwef is providing us to improve the user experience by bypassing the approval process of submitting every update to the app stores. And instantly makes the app accessible to users across platforms and not limited to just iOS or android.

Thanks for pointing this out. I’m not a fan of changing the swipe behavior contextually because it adds an additional cognitive layer to try and save a few milliseconds. The tradeoff isn’t a good one, but an interesting ui exploration. Loving all the updates so quickly in general though.

Great news! And agree, Mark Jackson needs to go as well. Those two had me muting my tv to be able to watch games.
