  • Amazing game, and one of those “video games as art” that is often overlooked. The gameplay itself is nothing to write home about, but the narrative would not have been nearly as powerful if it wasn’t completely interactive.

    Maybe we could get some young, impressionable, IDF kids to play that white phosphorous sequence so they can learn what it feels like in a video game without having to actually murder countless civilians.












  • Yes there is. It’s called: stop being a religious ethnostate. Maybe try being a secular, Democratic nation that doesn’t literally have an apartheid system.

    South Africa was able to do it. Are you saying, with all of the funding my country is sending Israel (on my dime, by the way) they can’t do what South Africa did in the 1990s? Sounds like a bullshit excuse.

    Stop buying the propaganda. Both Netanyahu (and Likud in general) as well as Hamas have great interest in preventing a one state solution. It is of one of the few shared goals that they can agree on, and they have been doing everything in their power for decades to prevent that from even being an option on the table.

    And they’ve been wildly successful, as people balk at the very concept of rebuffing religious nationalism in favor of secular democracy with a one state solution.

    It’s the only possible way to achieve any kind of lasting peace in the region.






  • I haven’t used mine with PC (I usually just use an X-Box One controller, which was my fav prior to DualSense probably), but it’s a shame that more games don’t use the adaptive triggers and haptic feedback. It’s used relatively often and pretty well on PS5, and for me it’s a borderline killer feature. If more games utilized it in the way Astro’s Playroom did (yes I know it’s a tech demo but that’s kind of the point), it would be far and away my favorite for any system.

    Haven’t had issues with battery life, but taht could be because I’ve updated firmware, or maybe the PS5 is just better at managing the DSs’ battery since they’re made for eachother. I also got the official brand charging dock, so perhaps that has something to do with prolonging battery life? Couldn’t tell you.
