You’re a bit too late for trying to complain about that one.

The latter has been the dominant American pronunciation of the word for so long that it now appears as the primary pronunciation guide in American dictionaries.

The word you’re looking for there is ‘isometric.’

My preferred version of that video.

Got almost the opposite experience here. Liked frog legs almost as much as chicken, but found both alligator meat and alligator jerky offputtingly fishy.

Gearbox bought the franchise from its original devs about a year ago, and this is one of their attempts to capitalize on that purchase.

Dunno if this is exactly the kind of thing you have in mind, but a person known as ‘Yuvi’ has been singlehandedly maintaining publicly available servers for the original Demon’s Souls for about 4 years (the official servers shut down about 5 years ago).

Thanks to Yuvi, you can still play the original game with all online functionality, regardless of whether you’re playing on PS3 or RPCS3.

All the From Software RPGs since Demon’s Souls work like that too. (Not the lack of menu, but the lack of an interactive save system because it’s just constantly autosaving).

It’s incredibly convenient to always be able to quit the game at any time and know you’ll be in the exact place and position you were when you start up again. And it has the added benefit of preventing players from save scumming.

Best Android app for emulating DS in my experience is DraStic.

Expression looks like Kirk doesn’t want any damn vegetables.

e.g. means ‘for example.’ I think you were looking for i.e. (which means ‘in other words’ or ‘to be specific’).

Other than in terms of physical hardware innovations, Nintendo hasn’t been anywhere near the cutting edge of computational power since the mid-90s… Or maybe never.
