The what now.

He left a USB stick at an event in Dallas. It was found that it contained footage of an underage girl exposing herself. Pitchford was completely unapologetic, stating that the girl was a professional streamer who performed sex acts in exchange for money and that he was interested in some sort of sex act he called a "magic trick". He also said that the girl's online handle was "Only 18".

Oh right, some people didn't hear about that. Yeah, admitedly it came from a disgruntled employee, so take it for what it's worth, but he allegedly left a USB drive somewhere and it had a collection of underage porn on it.

The existence of the porn was definitely true because Pitchford himself admitted it. As mentioned above, though, he insisted that it was "barely legal" porn, rather than underage porn. Not backing down, he also suggested that the girl be put in porn magazines because he liked her so much.

Holy fuck.

After seeing it on Outside XBox I downloaded House Flipper. Despite being someone who despises all forms of manual labour I am utterly addicted to this game, probably because I don't actually have to do any physical labour and can re-paint a house in five minutes.

Completed Claire's B Side last night so that's Resident Evil 2 completed and marked off my list.

I've got quite a lot left on the list for the PS4 but got quite a few long games as well. Thinking Mortal Kombat shouldn't be one that's too long compares to the likes of Death Stranding, Judgement, Days Gone etc

Replaying Sleeping Dogs. Going to play as a loose cannon as much as possible, too. Doing the drug busts for early boosts, with the Deus Ex outfit (which gives you access to an SMG). Going full Punisher on these triads for early money and XP

If your plan is to complete Mortal Kombat 11 to the point where you have all the skins and other unlockable stuff? Yeah, you're gonna be there a looooong time.

Nah wouldn't do that far probably just the main story. I had the last one and thought yehhhh I'm not gonna bother. I'll keep playing and get what I can but I'm not gonna force myself to try and u lock everything otherwise I'll end up probably resenting the game. 

I wish they did another Sleeping Dogs. Such a brilliant game

Best game soundtrack since Burnout 3.

I would also do the arcade towers for every character too.

Also, note that there's two story endings depending on if you beat the final battle in two rounds or three, as well as a special game over for losing it (which you will probably see more than once because the boss is immune to a lot of things and is also super cheap).

Also also, I don't think there's any rewards for going through the branching paths. Or at least, I didn't notice any.

Thinking I’ll stream some Hitman 2 later today (1:30 or 2 Central) on YouTube, if people wanna watch and chat.

Streets of Rage 4 is a delight.

I'll be giving it a go later. Some reviewers are comparing it to Sonic Mania as a great revival of a SEGA classic. It makes me wonder what else could get such treatment. Comix Zone would be high on my list.

[Bobfoc]

To confirm, Streets of Rage 4 is very good. I really like the new art style. It's colourful and cartoon-like, but it still retains a bit of the grimy look of the old games. The soundtrack lives up to the standards set by its predecessors too.

I've been going through my backlog and beating a few of beat 'em up games with a buddy of mine. After about 9 years of no play, beat Scott Pilgrim and Double Dragon Neon on the PS3. Started up Darksiders as well and I'm pretty hooked instantly. Surprised I never played thia sooner.

@Mr. Meacon Moneybags The studio that made The Golf Club/2/2019 is now owned by 2K, and they've announced PGA Tour 2K21. Could be a good thing, as the gameplay will be great. The extra budget should mean the highest amount of licensed players and courses ever in a game, you would hope.

The ESRB has stated that Cyberpunk 2077 contains customisable genitalia.

I used to love the old Tiger Woods games on the PS2 and I've not played one since. Only thing I'd worry about is the whole 2K microtransactions and hiding a lot of stuff behind said microtransactions. 

 

In other news; apparently the new Cyberpunk game will have customisable genitals..

[Ruki]

Did you know you'll be able to customize your genitals in Cyberpunk?

 

Hopefully we can have guns for boobs like fembots, or a gun crotch like that dude from that vampire movie.

As funny as I find the idea, CD Projekt Red has one of the worst reputations for pre-release crunch. If they're making their employees toil away for ridiculously long hours for completely superfluous features like this, that isn't a good thing.

[OctoberRaven]

If I hadn't already pre-ordered it, I would now.

[Baddar]

@DavidMarrio It wouldn't surprise me. There's bound to be some kind of season pass for extra licensed courses etc. But one of the big hooks about TGC (aside from the gameplay) was that the user created courses could be played by anyone, so there's an infinite amount to play. There were also some amazing real life re-creations of courses like Augusta, too.
