Same. Not something you should be required to do, at all, but it does seem to work.

This Rorie erasure will not stand.

I’m guessing Gamespot editors didn’t get a lot of choice in the matter, and I wouldn’t expect the Giant Bomb team to bad mouth a site owned by their parent company publicly, no matter what they may think privately.

Not a fan personally, but this, I’m sure, was a deal done way above the pay grades of those participating.

I don’t think that’s accessible though, not to the kind of mass market a SW game needs to serve. Fallen Order finds a kind of balance to that, it’s not perfect, but it’s closer to that kind of style while remaining accessible, particularly with the difficulty options.

I totally get this, but it would be incredibly hard to make a fun game, where a Lightsaber is as powerful as it's depicted to be. There was actually a good article I read the other day on USGamer about the history of the Lightsaber in games: https://www.usgamer.net/articles/from-history-of-the-lightsaber-in-games

Really minor bug, but I noticed recently that the time counter on the scrubber seems to be tying the display bubble to the length of the scrub bar. This means as you get closer and closer to the end of the video, the display gets more and more squished. End result is it ends up like the below.

HTML 5 Player & Progressive player both display this behaviour. Tested on Chrome Version 75.0.3770.100 (64 bit).

Tested on my work laptop, also using Chrome and had the same issue.

Also tested using Edge for the giggles and that actually displays as expected, so suspect it's a Chrome issue with how it's rendering the video for the native players (Youtube embed is fine when used for free videos)?

So, this probably passed by a lot of the folk based in the US, maybe even within Europe, but recently one of the national tabloid papers ran a front page story claiming that Fortnite turned a teen into a suicidal drug addict.

Eurogamer (along with one of their former Video Producers Chris Bratt) have done some really good investigation into the story, the author and how this kind of stuff happens. Thought people might find it interesting/terrifying how this kind of stuff comes to be reported.

Also, the top comment on the story from a therapist is really interesting too, as it shows how even large & generally respected news organisations like the BBC can fall into these kind of generalisations.

I think these are all fair, my intention was never to replace TANG in its original form, but to revisit the idea with Videogame movies being viewed by the crew, either in an edited format, or in a film & 40's style.

How,would people feel about revisiting This Ain’t No Game? I realise it’s a sensitive subject, given how closely it’s tied to Ryan (and rightly so), but I also feel there could be a lot of fun to be had by revisiting these movies with a new approach, while also mixing it up.

My 2 main ideas are either make it a two person thing, with the obvious pairing being Dan & Alex.

Alternately it would make a fun, if slightly painful at times, Film & 40s series for everyone to join in with.

What do you guys think, are video game movies worth a revisit on the site, or should TANG be preserved as is?

I’ve been having an issue over the last couple of weeks now, where when I try and watch streaming videos (but not live ones) on the iPad, at some point (but normally quite early on) the audio will rewind back 3-4 seconds but the video will play on as per normal, making everything out of sync.

Happened on 2 different devices, so fairly sure it’s not that.

When I use the download option and play it in the browser that way, everything is fine.

Also, super minor thing that I reported when Alexis was still here, but thumbnails still don’t display on a videopage, just a black box with the play image.
