Hey Cheapy, NYT ran a story about the source of chronic pain. I feel like you talked about this topic a few years ago on the CAGcast. You might find it interesting. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/09/well/mind/john-sarno-chronic-pain-relief.html

I agree with Wombat that the season season of Miracle Workers looks better than the first. They're using their actors better this time. If you like Miracle Workers (especially season 2), check out "Man Seeking Woman". It's from the same writer and creator (Ben Rich) and is from a short story by...

PS4 needs less smugness? As evidenced by it having official hard drive? https://www.amazon.com/Seagate-Game-Drive-Green-STEA2000403/dp/B01065S79E There was an official hard drive for Xbox One before there was one for PS4 and from the same company. Mainly because Xbox One supported external...

I'm with Shipwreck. Billy Mitchell can certainly continue to market himself. 30 years as a cheater? And who really got hurt? He's the Frank Abagnale of video gaming. Also, when Wombat describes a Battle Royale game with no shooting and instead just spotting all I can think is Nintendo has the...

Forza 7. Fed up or pay up? Going to make a vow to stick them this time? Is the reason MS keeps pushing the boundaries on annoying buyers because buyers seem to keep buying anyway? I actually was planning on buying it on PC but given this I'm much less likely to do so. Since I have no Xbox One...

There's a new Taco Bell Xbox One X giveaway. With an ad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyX02BSNIIk Between the dumb name and the accent of the actor I dare anyone to claim that if you weren't deeply tuned into gaming you'd have any idea the actor is saying the product name "Xbox One X". It...

RE: the Wal-Mart SNES mini preorders I don't think it was a screw-up at all. As you read in Console Wars, Nintendo is likely to short retailers on their orders. And retailers don't like it any more than retail customers do. I think Wal-Mart took those pre-orders so they could then hand a big...

Best of luck with the Penn Station repairs, Wombat. Sounds like it's going to be ugly coming in on the L.I.R.R.

You don't have to sync your PS4 Pro to get your saves across. You can do it just like you did with your Xbox. Just log in to the new one and download your cloud saves. As long as your old PS4 was your primary PS4 it'll work. If your old PS4 wasn't your primary, then it never uploaded cloud saves...

It's kind of interesting to hear the gang pitching Playstation TV for 20 minutes. A portable console made cheaper, like a little Apple TV and it only works with your TV, no touch support? Your saves work between the two automatically, no buying games twice? Yep, that's Playstation TV (Vita TV)...

Sony didn't publish No Man's Sky. It was published by Hello Games. Both Shipwreck and Wombat made this mistake. It's a bit weird to quote information that informed your expectations and have that be wrong info. I can see something about expectations for a $60 game. But I think expecting every...

To Wombat's question, how are all the companies able to release significant updates in a short period? It's probably mostly for the same reasons the consoles are "disappointingly slow". That is, the entire industry has a crisis in chip technology. The half-step technology between the 28nm...

Did I really just listen to 3 people who have played (at most) 40% of a game explain that the review scores must be wrong and the game must be an 8.5 at most? I can understand that personal experiences do matter. But I would suggest you experience all those personal experiences before reaching...

One of the best things about Deadpool is how it bucks the trend of unmasking superheroes. While every other superhero movie goes out of its way to expose the (expensive) actors' faces for reasons Wombat already mentioned, Ryan Reynolds spends his superhero time in this movie in full costume...

Ubi releases statement that AC: Unity is 900p/30 on both Xbox One and PS4 "to avoid all the debates and stuff". Gamers being gamers, this doesn't quell any debate at all, instead turns into a huge explosion of how PS4 (and of course PC master race) players are being boned for the sake of the...
