When the US constitution was signed on September 17, 1787 the types of rifles available were basically smoothbore muzzleloaders although there were some rifles that had grooved barrels (ie. rifling). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/...
With weapons like those in 1787 a shooter could fire two or three rounds per minute. In modern times a shooter using a semi-automatic...
Actually, many gaming sites (not just The Jimquistion) are condemning the demonising of violent video games.
For all the rhetoric demonising video games, nothing will happen since games generate billions of dollars and corporate bribes (err donations) will prevent any changes being made.
Yes, Trump is 73 but being that age or even older does not prevent you from playing videos games. The demonising of video games by Trump and his sycophants is a deflection from attempting to fix the gun violence problem that is unique to first world countries like the USA. They did it before and they will continue to do it again.
I suggest you look at the statistics of the US economy. Just Google it. h...
An SSD will reduce loading times by a factor of up to 6 but it won't completely eliminate loading. It also helps when the developer optimises any loading such that it is much more seamless.
Load time will not be a thing of the past but they will be reduced dramatically (approx 3 to 6) compared to loading off a hard disk drive.
It's always funny in a bizarre way when Republicans are proud of flipping a state or town/city "red" and then trying to demonise the opposition as Communist or Socialist when the colour associated with Communism is "red". Remember McCarthyism (look it up) from the 1950s which was instigated by Republican Senator Joseph McCarthy (1908 - 1957).
Those that refuse to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

Trump is a "sociopath". Don't believe me then look it up and tick all the boxes that you associate with Trump. Here are just a few traits:
Profile of the Sociopath
- Glibness and Superficial Charm.
- Manipulative and Conning. They never recognize the rights of others and see their self-serving behaviours as permissible. ...
- Grandiose Sense of Self. ...
- Pathological Lying. ...
- Lack of Remorse, Shame or Guilt. ....
What! I thought the mass shootings happened in El Passo Texas and Dayton Ohio, not Toledo Ohio. Oops, well, he did get Ohio right and his speech to the nation was one of the best Zombi impressions I have seen for some time. 😣
I somehow don't think that people from poor and strife-torn countries have that much money or time to play violent video games so what you have said is a strawman or a negative "whataboutism" (ie. deflection). How about comparing countries whose populations have a relatively high standard of living and the US does not fare well with regards to mass shootings.
Yes, "guns don't kill people" but nut cases with high powered assault weapons (bump stoc...
From the article:
"I know JRPG purists are going to hate on me for dissing save points but if Persona 5 had autosaved every time I finished a fight, I would have finished that game way more quickly. Heck I would probably be more willing to play more JRPG’s if I didn’t have to stress out about losing progress due to surprise three-part boss fights."
Maybe you should not play JRPG's or those that require you to save at specific points. I thoug...
I think the sum was $30 million to get Trump elected, but hey what do I know. https://www.vanityfair.com/...
Like it or not Trump is a sociopath (just Google it) and it may be fun for some to tick the boxes. If you get less than 80% I strongly suggest consulting a psychiatrist.
As for games, did anyone watch Trump's address? Personally, a game zombie could have given a much more compelling speech although the highlight was when he said 'May God bless those in Toledo'. Oops!
World War 2 was started when the Third Reich invaded Poland.
The seeds of WW2 were actually sown at the end of WW1. You can confirm this from Google although I am quite sure there will be many who disagree.
You are quite right people do kill people and it takes a high powered semi-automatic weapon (bump stock optional) to rapidly kill many people.
Holding the parents responsible for their kids can only go so far. If a "kid" commits a serious crime then that "kid" is responsible not the parents unless those parents are complicit in the crime. Like it or not everyone who has committed a heinous crime has parents.
"Every new generation, the media goes out to look to blame something."
No, the media is not looking to blame video games, it is a certain orange-faced guy and his sycophants who are doing that. Yes, the media is reporting but they are not buying the rhetoric and to their credit saying so.
I viewed the so-called teleprompter address by the POTUS and I think a game zombie could have delivered a better speech which IMHO was so "deadpan". ...
Well, that person could also be protesting Oceanhorn as well which is on quite a few platforms. 😎
Assuming 20 to 15 million by the end of 2020 and 5 to 10 million by the end of 2021 the PS4 would be on track to come close or beat the PS2's overall lifetime sales. What could really give the PS4 a boost is a possibility that games developed for the PS5 will be playable on the PS4 admittedly at a reduced quality which would be similar to the PC gaming market. A reduced price of say US$200 would help as well.
Of course, I could be wrong but only time will tell.

The lightbar hardly consumes any power and if the inbuilt speaker and touchpad are hardly used then they don't consume much power. The largest consumer of power in the DS4 is the wireless interface and the rumble motors.
It is unfortunate that Sony chose to use a 1000mAh battery but it is not difficult to replace that battery with a higher capacity one (you will void the warranty though) or you can use an extension (the cheapest) cable or you can purchase a battery pack...
There are an awful lot of games that use that "gimmick TouchPad". Granted some games use the touchpad in place of an extra button but many games actually make use of its features.
Personally, I don't have an issue with the light bar and I play using a 32" HDR 4K monitor which means my controller is between one to two meters from the screen and on the "dim" setting of the light bar I don't notice any reflection.
It must be ...

I think that is what you call satire.
