I actually heard a quote from them that it was because of piracy. But I'm guessing it was fake news cause I can't find it in Google anymore even when I search for "super mario run android piracy". Thanks internet:rolleyes:.

I still have the shits with Nintendo tho. They are gimping the Switch's performance even more than I though. At this rate the only games the Switch will be able to run well are first party titles and 3rd party ports are going to look like last gen games. No @ 60fps Mario or Zelda in my future.

I think Apple might have paid a fair bit for exclusivity, especially with the way they've been pushing the game

Good point, yet I only have one TV atm, and no wired network points in other rooms. I'd have to replace my router to support 802.11AC to have any chance of using it... You have got me tempted though.

On the Maxwell chip commentary, I've got a GTX960 and it handles anything I thrown at it @ 2560x1080 so far

New Overwatch flavour comic if you keep up with this sort of thing.

Spoilers for the comic:

Blizzard have made an existing main cast Overwatch character lesbian in the comic. I don't have a problem with that, but I think that will do nothing but egg on certain "fan creations". While it's great to have diversity in game characters I think given some of the things Overwatch fans are making this might have been a bad move.

PSA: Steam Winter Sale is now on!

Apparently Watch Dogs 2 is running a little better on PC now. Ironically it runs better when you turn the graphics settings up higher by enabling Temporal Filtering. So I've rebought WD2 since it's on special on Steam for $40 USD down from $60.

Also bought the new Hitman which is down to $30 and F1 2016, which I've already forgotten how much I paid.

What do you guys reckon would be the single best Star Wars game for PS3?

The first Force Unleashed game is great, forget about playing the second one tho, it's rather middle of the road.
