@xanadu: right on. That makes perfect sense really. I really hope whatever console Sony and Microsoft decide to release next has less room for interpretation/patching/etc. I understand with Xbox procedurally including original Xbox games having a "grey zone" for specifications, but when one of a main platforms selling points is "Boost Mode" I can't help but feel like it is in disingenuous. I'm a recent adopter of the Xbox One S and I'm seeing huge improvements visually from the original model. But I am constantly questioning whether or not I should invest in an X. My decision has come down to Microsoft sweepstakes instead of investing 500 dollars, but with the Pro I feel like they sold people something that doesn't actually fill the dollar amount spent. (retail I guess)

Is there a list or something that clearly defines what games benefit from PS4 Pro's extra power and what impact those unlocked framerate/boost mode things do.

What I mean is, does Sony actually define what your getting from title to title? I read "Boost Mode" in there and that sounds like some bullshit.

I don't have a PS4, and I'm honestly just curious as to what has been clearly laid out. Well shit I'll just google it.

You can change the rate of fire on guns from full auto to 3 round burst to single. That should help with the AR jumping around. You can hold your breathe with the sniper when zoomed in and there’s a skill that reduces the sway as well.

Try turning off all the ui elements and just mess around with single shot assault rifles to get a feel for the recoil I guess? Idk that’s some stuff to try that probably won’t actually help.

@sparky_buzzsaw: Wow. Thanks for sharing that, I'm in Texas and I haven't traveled much around the U.S so it's really interesting to get a clear present day perspective of that part of the U.S.

I don't want this to be read in a way that sounds like I'm replying to any statement in particular, but

It's fiction. Clear and simple. If your the type of person that desires clear definitive lines drawn between what could be and what could not be - then just understand that when approaching any type of creative medium, the creator will generally denote whether or not it is fictional. This sounds like a dickish response to what could just be fun speculation, but I constantly hear people around me in person and online asking very surface level questions about plots in movies, games, etc. and it's kind of annoying.

Far Cry 5 is set in a fictional town. With fictional characters. So ANY questions regarding the reality of the scenario presented falls into the answer that it's not real and not intended to be real.

That's an easy way to stop yourself from watching films and saying, "well why didn't they just..." or playing games and saying, "well how could that even..." out loud, and just internally asking yourself what the creator(s) have chosen to make.

That said I don't want to sound arrogant and I understand that sometimes things are "so ridiculous" given the material presented and it shouldn't be frowned upon when someone wants to discuss their interpretation. I just wanted to offer a simple solution to people who find that kind of scrutiny irritating and would rather avoid it.

Just re-read this and it does sound dickish. So sorry for that. I also read some of the spoiler blocked stuff in comments and now I'm coming to the conclusion that I misunderstood the topic....but whatever.

Just recently saw “You were never really here” starring Joaquin Phoenix at an Alamo Drafthouse in Austin. I can’t remember specifically what drew my attention towards the film, but I have a very certain amount of trust in Joaquin Phoenix’s performance. I perused a few articles and came away with a very poignant connection. I’d excitedly express how I felt that this film was in direct correlation to “Hotline Miami, Drive, and fumble into enthusiasm regarding its Vigalante protagonist extracting what little information I had to share. All of this leading to a wonderful viewing of distruptive/disturbing imagery scored by Johnny Greenwood. The story is represented in powerful yet subtle moments of character development without relying on tropes in the genre. Comedy is sewn into what can only be described as melancholic moments while the heavy lifting is done by a strong protagonist. The film builds an atmosphere of high tension blood lust, but maturely obvioucates the desire for gore and instead relies entirely its ability to build a specific character. It has its gory moments, and it doesn’t shy away from “adult” content, but I really respected its ability to convey a character who is internally unable to comprehend even the slightest amount of remorse while “justifying” his actions. The film touches upon much more but I don’t want to spew rhetoric so.....go watch this movie if you have the means. It’s directed wonderfully and Joaquin Phoenixs performance is powerful stuff. 5/5

Splinter Cell Remaster. Trilogy specific games whatever.

I’ve been listening to Chaos Theory’s soundtrack as of late and remembering how much passion I had for the Splinter Cell franchise growing up. I started my stealth gaming with thief, then splinter cell, and now Metal Gear has been my go to for that type of gameplay. But Sam Fisher has been absent for far to long.
