    I usually don’t comment on these kind of things but the clear lack of understanding is astounding. Shit is different for every phone and manufacture.

    Yes I would totally love expandable storage but you know what, there have been android phones I used that didn’t have expandable storage. (Not trying to do “what about” but a simple example showing there are tons of phones that have the same problem)

    Xperia 1 III was $1300 when it launched. Not a huge difference but based on inflation that would be $1500 now instead of $999.

    Now for the shit almost no one cares about that the iPhone has and have had for years that Xperia 1 III didn’t. (And flame bonus, that some android phones still don’t!!!) All shitty jokes aside, I am sure there are plenty of Android phones that have this, just showing the stupidity in the argument.

    I don’t care about this list either its just random stats I found on the iPhone page that didn’t show up in the Xperia page. iPhone Stats - https://www.apple.com/uk/iphone-16/specs/ Xperia Stats - https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/mobile-phones-tablets-mobile-phones/xperia-1-iii/specifications

    Not sure why you are being down voted for asking for clarification. I think based on the tone Nate Cox is making fun of the OG post but based on the comment and lack of clear meaning I understand you question. (Make no mistake I fuck up a comment all the time and miss more than one word in explaining what I am saying. No fault to Nate Cox just all those down voting you)

    Ohh man, i am right there with you. It was the same for me with CS however I already had it installed. I wanted to update to 1.6 but I had steam installed and it forced me to update steam before I could update CS. I know they had a lot of growing pains but they eventually did it right due to our struggle.







  • Good point. Sorry I wasn’t clear. I only meant that they couldn’t branch out and develop other games like they wanted to. Essentially I was making the same point that you are in terms of what they HAD to develop. MS it was Halo, Sony it’s destiny but in either place they did not have the option to make new IP. At least maybe not till now but that looks more like a forced dev.

    I agree with your sentiment, though that Sony is pushing them more in house.


  • I would generally agree with this statement but I think in this particular case it may be a bad thing. From what I understood of the article they are taking a portion of the Bungie dev team and spinning off to be a part of the Sony game devs. I have a feeling the manage team being taken out had been a big pushback on that.

    Bungie wanted to leave Microsoft because they wanted to do new things and not just Halo. Unfortunately it turned out activation screwed them in terms of their development and mad then cut 70% of the D1 story with less than a year to release.

    After all that they are eventually bought by Sony that now does almost the same thing MS was doing to them.

    Don’t get me wrong, I am glad it’s more managers and corporate office than devs but I have a bad feeling that this is just the start of a bad turn of events for them.










  • What are you talking about!!! Halo, Call of Duty, and Battlefield are all really fun games and absolutely totally unique. When a sequel comes out its multiplayer is amazing right away and all the best playlists are there with tons of maps right away! I never have to ask “why didn’t they include the playlist or mode from the last one that everyone loved” just to wait a year for some DLC that is the exact thing from the prior game.

    cough nuketown cough

    Halo specifically even gets the community involved by letting them make maps and then using those maps to deliver new experiences for players. They never reuse parts of maps in other maps that could be seen as lazy or obvious.

    Just in case people can’t tell from my tone /s.
