Yeah, but that was last gen. Get with the times



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Pyrrhic Victory.



Congrats to Microsoft. To imagine it is only Microsoft's 2nd console and they disrupted the market the way they did. Very well deserved Microsoft.

Well done MS!



A fitting accolade on the eve on the XB1 launch. Who would've thunk this time 8 years ago? Props are due.



Well I'd hope they'd do well in the US, not like they give a shit about the rest of the world.

YAY MURICA!
