Used to happen to me a lot on that first UFC game on the 360, only game it's ever happened to me on that I recall.

Too many people played online who thought it was a boxing game and didn't have a clue what to do if you took the fight to the ground.

He handled it poorly but ultimately it's his channel, if he wants to take a break he can take a ****ing break. Unless you're actively paying him through Patreon or something for these reviews he now isn't going to do (and from a quick glance I can't find any reference to him having one) then he owes you nothing.

Here is the thing with digital comics. It takes away everything about how comics are supposed to be read, and until comic book sized e-readers come out, that won't change in the slightest.


I read comics on both my 7 and 10 inch tablets all the time through Comixology, Marvel unlimited (when I subscribed) and Comicrack for those random cbr files I've gotten through humblebundles and they're all fine (with the guided view it's perfectly presentable on a phone in landscape).

The problem is their model and unwillingness to branch out from selling physical copies, they're only trying to sell to dwindling base of people already into comics, not doing anything to expand that. Where's the adverts before the DC and Marvel films, where's the deep, deep discounts on relevant stories when the opportune times come? Is there really so much sales potential in old Simonson,Gillian, Jurgen and JMS Thor comics that they couldn't sell it at 90% off as Ragnarok hits theatres as a loss leader to draw people in? I saw an ad for a new Alien story on Audible before that new Alien film but where's the same for this stuff. Hell in Marvel's case where are the ****ing ads for Marvel unlimited before their own films?

I don't get how they're failing to capitalise that 50 years of stories on these characters you love are one click away in such a spectacular manner when superheroes are such a big thing right now. Good comics are selling 50 thousand units, what could they do with a bit of push to show people "this is where those stories are coming from and you can buy now in one click from your amazon account and read it in 2 minutes"?

They need to up their distribution game. My only options are a crappy store that smells like piss. Get them back in regular stores, on supermarket shelves instead of being the domain of these dirty little stores run by the socially inept.

jesus you think they dont already monitor all online activity? she's just saying shit to idiots like TC feel happy


Oh they do. One of her first acts as PM was to pass the Snoopers charter that she devised as Home Secretary allowing a rake of agencies access to UK internet records with no warrant (not just law enforcement either pretty much every government run agency has such access)

But it's a much easier than to blame the internet boogieman on indoctrinating people than admitting she had personally slashed police budgets 7 years running and has a portion of blame for how under equipped they are now.

No, much better to double down on the blaming the internet, after all it's also those internet using lefties that are supporting her opponent.

Empty words by someone who between her stint as home secretary and as PM has spent the last 7 years destroying the organisations that would and should be fighting these problems.

Funny how 5 days before an election she finds the stones to make a statement.

DC does actually. They have the rights to all the Milestone characters. They just don't use them much without Dwayne asking about them.


Everything I can find says they're just licensed, hence DCs reluctance to do too much with them.

Nope, just took a couple of minutes to check the description and somebody beat me to the punch in the meantime.

So, really the issue at hand is just that your feathers are ruffled a mixed race man got a job even though he fits the bill of the character? Yeah I think that speaks for itself.

Aside from that, music was often ripped off or stolen before the 90's. Kid Rock's American Badass is directly ripped off from Tuff's American Hair Band. Michael Jackson stole all of his dance moves from a white Broadway dance choreographer. While unethical, it doesn't mean their art is any worse quality.


Really not sure if I missed the joke or you actually believe this.
