This is almost offensive. John Wick is a great action movie, the likes of which have not been seen since the 90s (at least in Hollywood). No slow mo bullshit, no cheap ass looking cgi, just straight up great editing.
On another note, if you guys enjoy John Wick, check out "Man from Nowhere". Its a great action korean movie. That movie is on par with John Wick imo. @danryckert you should check it out too dan. A few years ago when I was still in the US, it was on netflix. Not sure about now.
good luck Austin. As much as i love Giantbomb, you sir, was/is wholly over qualify for this place. So while I am sad GB will be loosing a great gundum editor, I am glad you are pursuing something more fitting for your intellect. (please don't go to a Gawker or something, patrick is wasted there) Thank you for all the fun and we will miss your smile.
@brich: my point was that even a 2k computer cant run true 4k games, even at 1000+ price tag the scorpio will not be anywhere close to being able to either. If they are really aiming for this, then it will be 1080p upscale and that they need to be clear and concise with the messaging. The stupid messaging was what pretty much destroy any gap they created last generation when the x1 got announce. It will happen again if they do that whole power of the cloud shit again.
And no even a year and a half away from now, with the spec they just announced it will not be 600$. I am being extremely generous even at 700$ most likely at 800, unless of cause they plan to take a bigger than usual loss on console sale. If this thing end up being 600 or below, it will not be at the spec we are talking about now. I am 95% confident about that statement, because part cost for this spec are just too expensive, even accounting one year in the future. I dont believe this is meant to replace the x1, it is a high end machine ala the gpu market having low, mid and high end models of the same series.
ummm unless scorpio is like at least 1000+ usd, TRUE 4k gaming is not even close to being realistic. As of right now, I can hand build my own tower for 2000+ usd and it would barely be enough to run 4k games and not smoothly. So we have 2 possibility here:
1. scorpio will be price as a premium console and it will be a more expensive alternative to the basic Xbox 1
2. you wont be able to play game at true 4k and it will most likely be 1080p upscale
In either case Microsoft need to be careful how they message this because honestly if a console player have to put down 1000+ for the console not to mention 400+ for the cheapest 4k tv. In that scenario why would a smart consumer not just buy a tower instead.
Weird? Like if that was your actual vision then release it that way? Deadpool kind of prove that rated R superheroes movie works. As a matter of fact, if their target audience were 8-18 year old kids then all the more reason to release a rated R movie. Nothing kids love more than "DARK/HARDCORE" shit. but this look like they saw how well Deadpool did so they are trying to sell their pg-13 movie as R after the fact. Could be good who knows.
@liquiddragon: Your question is not valid. Businesses will not just .....stop selling dlc because they can now get away with charging more for a product. That is like saying Apple will sell iphone 6 for 1200$, so they are not going to charge you for apple care anymore. No, if they can charge people 1200$ for the new iphone, they will AND they will also charge you for the apple care too.
If we starting paying 70$ for a game, ok thats not so bad. Except dlc is not going anywhere. But if we live in a magical utopia where corporate greed doesn't exist then sure I will pay 100$ per game for no dlc ever again. (living in japan I pay close to that already)
@ripelivejam: Its not our prerogative to know what we want(tho it should be). Its our place to buy what we like or not buy. People loved the Wii for what it was but obviously the WiiU did not resonate. Nintendo can make the most out there product in the history of gaming, does not mean the consumer will respond. There is nothing wrong with that.
fried rice? when i was in college in the us, I fed 30 hungry guys with chicken fried rice. Bag of rice about 10-20$ chicken 10$ and whatever else you want to put in. for 30-50 people your budget shouldnt be more than 40-50$ depending on what you put in.
Pasta with meat sauce is another good one. 3-5$ for pasta 10$ meat and bell pepper, sauce, tomatos, mushroom 10-20$. Should easily feed 20-30 for about 40$.
