Factorio was released 4 years ago on steam right? Why does it show the release date 14 August?

that apple commercial was extremely popular and made a huge impact so of course something apple related is gonna reference stuff like that til the end of time. :p It's either that or those iPod silhouette people dancing against colored backgrounds when it comes to apple references.

throw "one more thing" in that bag as well heh

Randomly noticed that the Quake Champions QuakeCon Bundle is up for grabs on Alienware Arena again. Probably last chance to get it: Quake Bundle
Luckily you can enter this at the Beth website instead of downloading their launcher.

Whew, the OG launcher. Now I just need the rail gun.

Yes, for sure the core Fortnite audience will understand a reference from more than 30 years ago or know the implications of mentioning 1984.

I mean, we could have had Jeff Goldblum pitching Half life at us, since the old imac commercials were also very well known (or better yet, Ellen Feiss)

jeff goldblum would have been amazing but i think 1984 commercial parody fits for a game about a totalitarian regime with a controlling overseer and a woman co-star who helps you try to take them down.

iirc the tf2 promo was more lighthearted. i think it was everyone using the ipod earbuds? i was a mac/console gamer at the time and remember people on gaf sending me their steam logins to get them the earbuds. imagine doing that now. 😆

Sounds like Sony bought out the month of September. I wouldn't be surprised if a few weeks turns into 4, but we'll see.

Here's the results from our Spelunky 2 Poll

US Commercials used to be ruthless. I remember there were tv shows which showed adverts around the world and one US PC commercial where the bloke blatantly takes a huge bite out of an apple while extolling the virtues of their own product.

I haven't seen this Epic advert as i've kept away from it all but i think i'll take a look for a giggle.

Remember the old Apple "Think Different" adverts showing people who changed the world like Ghandi and the parodies that popped up showing dictators and serial killers instead? How long until there's one of those but with Timbo on it? Fun times.

Cool. That was a weird bug since I had to force close the game.

Other than that, I didn't have that many issues with the beta, quite surprisingly. The game needs more optimization though.

I just reached lvl15 with Ms Marvel and did the majority of the missions available, and can definily say, the Avengers game is pretty boring.

There is no variety, maybe the campaign gonna be good, but I'm not inclined to purchase the game after experiencing this beta.

Some of the 80's "Cola wars" commercials were shown in my country, except there wasn't a cola war here, it's always been like 95% Coke, 5% Pepsi.

I tried the avengers beta and oh boy was it something. I did have performance issues. Also for Kamala she was missing her face (AC Unity)


Also.... About the way that the game told it's story..... It looked like a budget PC NSFW game......
This is likely already shared but it's cool how new games will potentially have this as well



SE do it for Nier!!!!!!!
