    Sometimes people just get really lucky. When they found a usable world like right at the very start of their mission, someone was celebrating a speedrunning victory.

    They eventually made one, as a Frontier crossover. It is somehow even worse-paced.

    I mean, he's not wrong. They've been acting like an obvious phallus for years now.

    Honestly, I just roll with it most of the time. It is a silly franchise with a silly premise, so when the cartoon's doing something silly, it is just... on-brand.

    Some of the Constructicon trumpeteers don't even have mouths! Galvatron was spot-on when he called that scene bad comedy.

    If I recall, there's also deleted scenes in Aliens where the company sends a message to the colonists to explore the location of the crashed ship.

    Yes! Blue sky in games!

    Daaaaaaaang. As always, I salute your suffering.

    Yes. It's just a MiSTer in a PSOne-looking case, and the Saturn core for MiSTer is in pretty good shape these days by most counts.

    I feel extremely old suddenly.

    The Superstation One isn't really an FPGA PS1. It's a MiSTer in a PSOne-styled case.

    Review I just saw of the 5090 summed it up depressingly well. 25% performance uplift vs a 4090 for a 25% increased power draw and a 25% increased MSRP. I miss the days when a new generation meant it worked better and the price for a given performance level went down.

    Shockwave was also a mold Takara didn't own, and once they started selling Transformers in Japan and importing the cartoon, they politely requested that Hasbro spend less time advertising other people's toys. ... Not that it stopped Sky Lynx, I guess?

    Of course, if you're like me and disable subpixel anti-aliasing because it is garbage doesn't work for you anyways, you don't have to care about the subpixel layout. Hooray!

    As realistic as manufacturer-supplied benchmarks ever get, anyhow. It does seem like the gains are almost entirely attributable to multi-frame generation.

    In fairness, if they're only doing one set of captions, it should be "for the hearing-impaired". I assume they aren't ACTUALLY closed captions, since no one's complained about the huge black boxes. Open captions for the win!

    Steve making fun of marketing copy for a half-hour is glorious.

    Hear, hear! This man gets it!

    Disappointing, but what I expected from the preview images.

    Yeah, that looks like a guitar to me too. He should be a Double Godmaster Triple-Changer. Ginrai turns him into a truck, Basara turns him into a plane, both of them turn him into a robot. Wait, that's almost exactly the opposite of how the gimmick works... The real takeaway here is that my headcanon now says that Ginrai is anima spiritia. Has anime spiritia? I'm not actually sure if the term in Mac7 referred to Basara himself or just the energy he produced.

    Honestly, every GeForce for a few years has felt like nVidia spitting in my face. I've only had Radeons for a long time, and part of that is nVidia keeps finding new ways to be awful.

    Perhaps Kawamori's MOST iconic design, however, is Battle Convoy. Though admittedly he was part of a team, and that one wasn't JUST his in the way the variable fighters are. But the Transformers team may not want to work with him these days, given how upset the fanbase was over MP Starscream. ALSO! Basara Prime should be a headmaster! I want a tiny Basara that becomes a robot head! ... Actually, scratch that. I'd make him a JP-style Powermaster, have him do the Ginrai thing, write lore connecting chokon power to spiritia, and REALLY make a confusing mess of this entire concept.

    Of course, right now we don't know how the 5070 performs, so we can't really sa* how much of an upgrade it is. We know how nVidia claims it performs, but manufacturer claims in this industry range from "optimistic" to "bald-faced lies". And personally, nVidia leans a bit strongly towards the latter for my tastes. I personally believe their "5070 performs like a 4090" claim is "with the 4090 rendering every frame at 3840x2160 resolution while the 5070 upscales from 1920x1080 and does three frames of motion interpolation for every frame it renders"... or just "4090 DLSS off vs 5070 DLSS Performance" if you'd prefer to conceal the reality with marketing buzzwords.

    Basara Prime is the obvious marketing decision, but I'm still disappointed given Armada Starscream is RIGHT THERE. He basically already has sound boosters in the design, even!

    It is weird to me that Flashback 2012 is okay but SDF and DYRL aren't.
