If Assassin’s Creed & the Tom Clancy series of games (Splinter Cell, Rainbow Six, Ghost Recon) are off the table & UbiSoft is looking to sell, there isn’t much aside from Watch Dogs, maybe Beyond Good & Evil? Just Dance could be a cash cow if not for the fact that relies on licensing music.
Nothing else in UbiSoft’s games portfolio screams ROI.
Allow me to remind everyone that I’m a 🇨🇦🇺🇸 citizen. I will not boo the 🇺🇸 anthem but I will remain seated until the 🇨🇦 is sung. I did this during WWE’s Survivor Series event in Vancouver last year and again on my birthday when the Canucks played the Kraken @ Rogers Arena.
I support the booing of the 🇺🇸 anthem from my fellow Canadians.
We live in an era when about 86% of ideas get greenlit for production so it can hopefully turn into a billion dollar happy accident (ie: MCU).
We forget that saying “no” because it won’t work (regardless of who sits in the Director’s chair or gets casted as the lead role) is sometimes the best move.
@britt My cousin used to work at the Nordstrom in d/t Vancouver. I showed him a TikTok of his co-workers smashing up the display racks and told him, “why isn’t this a friends and family dealio? I would have asked you if I could sign a waiver and join you & your co-workers for some therapy via Hulk smashing things.”
Man, I remember when he tried out for the Toronto Raptors and suited up for them for a few pre-season games before getting cut (or waived as the cool kids call it).
@britt The tech reviewers are painting it as though this phone will bankrupt Apple (again). It won't. The phone is expensive for a "budget" iPhone but at the acceptance stage of grief, what isn't expensive in the '20s, eh?
My first impressions with the #iPhone16e after upgrading from an #iPhoneXR: It's fine. If you're comparing it to the 16 & 16 Pro models, yes, there is a stark difference & you have every right to blast Apple as to why they didn't put MagSafe in the 16e.
For me, all I really cared about was battery life, can it do normal phone things, and new iOS 18 features I will enjoy that I don't have on my iPhone XR.
Yes, I have a MagSafe charger & it wasn't a dealbreaker that 16e didn't have it. I'm the kind that docks my iPhone at the end of the day & undocks it in the morning.
All in all, I'm satisfied that I have a shiny new iPhone that will provide me with years of new iOS updates.
