Nokia dragged their feet on smart phones and paid the price. The fact that they went with Microsoft when they did start making smart phones almost certainly didn't help matters, but they were already way behind at that point.

It's an absolutely perfect example of how petty he and his ilk are.

I take reviews on any site (especially Google/maps) with a huge grain of salt. I mostly only go straight to the negative reviews though. If they're all petty shit, then it's usually a good sign. I also like to see if the business/owner has responded. If they're posting snarky responses to negative reviews, then I'm inclined to think that this isn't a business that I want to deal with.

That would be a 23 kg bike. That’s crazy heavy. It’s more than double most bikes’ weight, and triple the weight of a racing bike.

It's actually not that crazy. E-bikes tend to be at least that heavy. Mine is 30kg. In our example of a fat man riding a bicycle, he's probably more likely to be riding an electric bike anyway.

On a similar note, Full Throttle is my favourite game ever, and has been since I first played it. I love everything about that game.

The replacement's job isn't to fix the problems, just to make it seem like they're doing something.

The "Can it run Crysis" thing was purely about the fact that it was one of (if not the most) resource-intensive games out at the time. I remember it being a big jump in terms of both visual quality and the requirements to run it well.

The Last of Us is definitely about the story. If you're not invested in that, you're probably not going to enjoy it. There's nothing much in the gameplay that sets it apart from similar games.

It's not a case of having waited for it as such, but I played The Last of Us this year, after watching the show. I'd say it was worth it, and I don't mind that a lot of the story beats and emotional moments were 'spoiled' as such, because I still felt them when playing the game.

Haven't moved on to the second one yet.

I got lucky with that one. My kid bought a PS4 (and has since bought a PS5) and both Spider-Man games, so I didn't end up having to pay anything to play them.

My only issue with IV is that Niko's constant agonising over not wanting to kill people anymore is at odds with the general gameplay of GTA; a game where you'll probably end up killing at least one innocent person on your way to the mission, let alone the dozen or so cops/criminals you'll kill during the mission.

The ending really got me though. On my first playthrough I drove around the city for at least an hour real-time trying to decide what to do.
