I think this game was my first ever Multiplayer experience. My brother, my neighbour and I used to play toggether as kids. I remember we had a game that always had us fucked up laughing. We’d stand in a triangle, all spawn with the tranquiliser gun mains, then a random secondary. A aimed at B, B aimed at C, and C aimed at A. We all shot the ever living fuck out of eachother with the tranq, then ran around for a few seconds before swapping to our secondaries and starting to play for real.

For the uninitiated, the tranq in Perfect Dark just made your vision blue like fuck when you moved. After unloading a whole magazine into eachother, your whole screen just smeared and you couldn’t see anything. We had great craic.

They seem to be one of the only huge corporations around these days that realise that prioritising the customer pays off. You make a slightly lower profit margin and pass that saving on to your customers? They’ll love you forever.

Maybe it’s just really good at being a device to stream your PS5 to?

People accusing Valve of all people of a cash grab just really have no clue what they’re talking about. Gabe Newell has been on the record countless times talking about how difficult he finds it to decide when to release new versions so as not to fuck over the consumer base.
