The devil is in the details, remasters are often “two steps forward one step back”.
We don’t know until its in our hands if they have messed up something critical.
From a game accessibility perspective the important release was in 2016 when it was posted to Windows / PS4 / Xbox One. Before that it was only on Xbox 360 which made it much harder to get hold of.
Its strange how flashbacks are often a little different from the original presentation
I have that one in the alarm library on my phone.
Its not good as a daily driver - if you use it every day you will end up with the song stuck in your head. But its great as a sometimes tone, I think I have it set for Wednesdays at the moment.
The PSU article cites this:

Which my browser translates to:
Sega’s fiscal year ending March 2024 results show a 6.6 billion yen deficit due to European restructuring, and operating profit also falls 87% to 2.3 billion yen. “Yakuza 8” sells a million copies in the first week after its release.
[Emphasis mine]
So it looks like there is an off by 1000 error somewhere.
But which regions code are you referring to?
So you can shit on me
No, I’m genuinely curious about the different clients we, the Lemmy community, have available. Knowing their strengths and weaknesses helps people make informed choices.
OP couldn’t post a picture as a picture format?
GIF is a picture format. It may contain multiple frames or it may not but it is a perfectly standard pallet based image format that has been around for 37 years (for comparison its older than zip or PDF). This is not the same as linking to a 1 second YouTube video.
My current client (Boost) is also treating it as unzoomable, but that is clearly a defect in my client. Even if it was an animation I would want to be able to zoom. Its something to raise with the developer.
In the meantime I just opened the link in my browser:
https://yall.theatl.social/pictrs/image/eb5063df-4151-47d4-aeda-ac16b2f34f62.gif
It’s basically a universal format.
True, it even has “interchange” in the name!
CompuServe encouraged the adoption of GIF by providing downloadable conversion utilities for many computers. By December 1987, for example, an Apple IIGS user could view pictures created on an Atari ST or Commodore 64.
It was a thing back in the day. Its just that the day was 30 odd years ago.
Punk Punk is an umbrella term:
They varied considerably, but all have one of the following in common with cyberpunk:
- A world built around a particular technology that is pervasive and extrapolated to a highly sophisticated level.
- A gritty or transreal urban style.
- A cyberpunk-inspired approach to exploring social themes within a Speculative Fiction setting.
Bugs are a specific kind of fault, it could be that or they might think that any number of aspects (e.g. plot, ui, gameplay loop, animations, crafting tree, character progression, quest structure, world layout, etc, etc) are flawed in any number of ways.
As an example If someone says that modern ubisoft open world games “have a lot of faults” its unlikely they are complaining about bugs per se.
The more realistic these games look the less enjoyable they are.
I was going claim it was marketing not the terrible product… but the marketing is usually terrible too.
Did they say “buggy”?
I love these games but the OG tank controls feel a little dated 30 years later.
I’m happy to see someone trying a revival.
The numbers on fuelwatch have rolled over for the new day now but when I was looking last night there was around 5-10% variation within each day but also a 15-20% price drop from Tuesday to Wednesday. By min-maxing across both days I could a min that was 25% lower than the max.
The range would be much less impressive if we only had access to a single days prices.
For a pretty extreme example consider, as you say, a large 25-gal tank, and filling up from dry twice a week, at an average of $0.10/gal non-optimal price: you pay an annual premium of $260 bucks not to drive yourself batty hunting for pennies, and burning at least a tiny bit more fuel to do it.
Since 2001 here in WA we have a system where petrol stations have to lock in their price for a day by announcing it the afternoon before. The highlights used to be mentioned on the local news and newspaper (maybe they still are, who knows?). But more importantly they all get published on https://www.fuelwatch.wa.gov.au/ so its pretty trivial to visit the site in the afternoon and check the stores along the commute home, plus you can also compare their tomorrow price to see if you should wait until then.
Looking at that site right now I can see 25% variance across my commute without even considering a detour. Its a pretty handy system.
(I know nothing about the franchise)
The first game in 2003 was well regarded but a bit of a commercial failure. It was planned as a trilogy but people thought sequels might not happen
Then in 2008 this teaser about waiting was released confirming a sequel was in the works , since then Duke Nukem Forever has been released and BG&E2 now holds the title for “longest development for a AAA video game”.
This is 1.5% more than the previous record set 3½ months ago. I suppose its nice that the numbers haven’t declined but I’m not sure I would call today’s figure remarkable in any way.
