Holy crap like 24000W of juice on tap. That is not screwing around. Awesome. A neat option but sounds like something for new builds not retrofitting an older home.
Well yes but actual no. While 4X games are turn based strategies where most rules are implemented through simple math, the obscene scale and complexity means they'd be impossible to implement on a board. And that's before even considering fog of war.
For a TBS to work as a boardgame, it must have a real-world mechanical solution to its secrets (cards, Stratego units, etc) and it must be simple enough for humans to execute all of the logic within the game.
Cute but the preview shows a lot of google apps that have been rebranded. How out of date is this?
Nobody could have predicted this! :P
Even for experts the user experience is shit. Too much has to be done manually when the default should be automatic, like fetching before pull, recursing when working with repos that use submodules, allowing mismatched casing on case insensitive filesystems, etc.
Google parental controls shut down automatically after a certain age.
Yeah, this. And I don't need a fully immersive experience for that. Like, Glass had enough for that - a camera for facial recognition, a screen for info. You could do the same if you mounted a camera on an earbud and put the display on a smartwatch.
I don't want Augmented Reality, I just want a dashboard/status bar for real life. A little screen in the corner of my view would solve that.
I know it's lazy as hell, but I'm shocked how much I'm enjoying it in spite of that. Its real flaw is the shortage of courses, one that probably won't get much better because the OG F-Zero didn't have much variety either.
They're jumping into a very crowded space, one where Valve is the first-to-market. That said, Valve is good at proving a hardware market viable and then flubbing at actually dominating it (VR, PC set-top boxes) so I could see somebody like Lenovo winning at this.
I'm kind of surprised they went for the Switch/Tablet form-factor for this instead of targeting the phone scale, but Lenovorola already cratered at trying to do this as a phone once before (Moto Z with the gamepad mod).

Bottom left. Look for the big Canadian flag. The other Aphex Twin logo is near the big Nine inch nails logo.

God damn how is it that Sega has never released a Sonic Adventure-style game with that kind of online multiplayer? It's so freaking obvious and yet we've never seen it.
Some of the gameplay mechanics look a bit... unnecessary? Like riding on vehicles, at least at speed. And I've always thought the Sonic Adventure rail grinding was tedious. But still overall it looks like a fun adaptation of the 3D sonic gameplay albeit with a slightly dated-looking art style.
