The latest actual game on the handheld are Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. Remakes of the original Ruby & Sapphire for the 3DS.

Unless he meant one of the freemiums, but I doubt it.

Not sure at this point if I'm the only person who enjoys the janky Gothic/Risen thing, but Risen 3 just got a graphic update: http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2015/08/22/risen-3-titan-lords-graphics-upgrade-patch/

I don't get it.  I watched it (without sound) and it looks like you're riding a rollercoaster in the twilight hours and maybe some lightning flashes or something.  How was that supposed to be scary?

Not that the idea of a scary amusement park is without legs, I can see that working somehow.

Yeah, that was a pretty awful trailer for a game.  "Most Amusement Parks are happy places.... but not all of them."

Great writers they've got on this game, I'll tell you that much.

One of the best parts of The Secret World was their scary amusement park zone. I guess they listened to all those (me included) who have been asking for a single player game out of The Secret World for about three years. Anyway, yeah, not great teaser. It only works if you know what it is referencing.

I can't imagine that twitch isn't getting massive pressure to implement a content id like system with how big they have gotten and being owned by the financial behemoth that is Amazon.

They already mute content in VODs.  AFAIK, they don't touch the livestreams.

My point is I would be shocked if Twitch doesn't start doing the same in the next 6-8 months.  These companies are making too much money off of Content IDing the shit out of everything that they can't be pressuring twitch due to monetizing streams with their content being played on it.

YouTube is still issuing content claims for game footage, though, not just soundtracks.  I can imagine this getting uncomfortable the instant Sega or whoever sees people streaming Sonic, and just runs down the list saying "all that ad money from all these channels is ours now, because some executive thought taking .07¢ from a kid getting five views is FREE MONEY YEAAAAAAAH WOOOOH."

Blip just died a few days ago, too... so there's a fairly large pile of archived game footage looking for a new home...

I remember seeing many islands for sale, some under $30US, but of course none of them have water, power, or anything else you might expect in a place that is solidly connected to other places.

Why am I homeless?  Why do all you motherfuckers need homes is the real question.

Who is selling them? Who are the money going to? And where do you see island listings? eBay? Amazon? Craigslist? Seriously, I am curious.

All Google needs to do is have a more relaxed cleavage policy than Twitch and music can go fuck itself. Money hats all round.

I should get back to nature, too.  You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer.  Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached.  Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

Twitch's policy is already ridiculously lenient. Basically as long as you aren't wearing a bikini top or equivalent it's fine.

It has been 2-3 years, or more, but I think it is a real estate company or set of companies.  I'd need to google something like "island real estate".

Really? I thought they'd become rather draconian after the Amazon purchase. I say this as a viewer; it used to be a cleavage fest and now it seems only one or two that are 'using their god given assets'.
