Stuck in 19xx WRUP

You might think that in the year 2016, western AAA publishers would be aware of basic PC gaming standards. Nope. Mafia 3 only supports 30 FPS at this stage and the outrage is huge. Sure, they are working on a patch that unlocks the FPS, but why that wasn’t included at launch is beyond me and with a mixed rating on Steam, the damage is already done.

In other news, but still set in the year 2016, Comcast apparently is now retroactively giving its users download caps. USA, land of the free. Read more

Nimble WRUP

So Palmer Luckey is funding a pro-Trump group. I wonder what that will do to the sales of the Rift and his relationship with Mark Zuckerberg.  The Facebook CEO is not exactly known to be a fan of Trump and Oculus is still struggling hard to reach an audience. Then again, Palmer was only in it for the “jolly good time.”
“Yo, I’m fighting the establishment! How? By spending millions on someone who is clearly part of the establishment. Am I part of the establishment? Yes, so what? You can only fight the establishment by having the support of the establishment. Don’t you idiots understand that?”
Gotta love this guy. Read more

Something Something WRUP

Something something games. Something something news. Something something I’m tired, fuck this.

Something something playing?

 

Dr. S: need to play some more game dev tycoons for work (mostly to get the screenshots at this stage), so I will play 5 different business sims in 2 days. Is that world record material? Probably not, but still more than is fun.

Cody: Gnna Start working on playing as many games from 2011 as I can afford to see what holds up the best for the Past Due Game Awards!

Scroo: Finished Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons for game club. Started playing Jotun, that's been pretty cool. Maybe more No Man's Sky as well. Depends on how busy this weekend is.

Andrew: Replaying Dead Rising on Steam. It really takes me back. Hard to believe that game is already 10 years old! It was one of the first titles I picked up for the 360 and I played the heck out of it back then.

Greywolfe: gameclub means that i'm playing "brothers."  i also have to work up the courage to get to where i was with "a blind legend," but that save system sucks and i dunno if i'll make it :P - i will [hopefully] also start up my quest for glory 3 hero as well as continuing my adventure in the longest journey.  but mostly...brothers.  lol.

WRUP from the dead

You might have noticed that we didn’t have a WRUP last week. That’s because I came back sick from my vacation.

You might have noticed that we didn’t have anything else on the site since last week. That’s because everyone else is dead as well. Or they are playing Deus Ex/No Man’s Sky/any of the other releases. Boy, what a year this has been so far. Thank god we already lost all of our audience at this point, otherwise I would be immensely stressed right now. Read more
