You think Fury Road was primarily green screened?
The majority of what was done was compositing. The stunts, props, etc. were real. The crashing war rig was real, for example.
It’s one of the things I thinks makes Furiosa worse - much less practical.
The old price was too high for me. The raised one made me roll my eyes.
Similarly I gave up trying to keep up with the ever evolving mail server requirements. I’d wake up to find my emails weren’t reaching people because Google and MS had strongarmed some change into place again.
These days I just use inbox.eu for my email.
Bought some back when I lived in Scotland and Somerfield had a deal on multiple blocks of cheese. Didn’t finish it.
Speaking of propping things up - Wensleydale were propped up by Wallace & Gromit.

BioShock Infinite took long enough and the finished product was significantly less interesting than the previews. This looks like it’s going to take twice as long. I don’t see that working out.
Does the other person’s reply not appear for you?
I don’t think I’ve encountered a magic system that doesn’t annoy me, unfortunately.
Basically anything focused on fantasy dungeon crawling. I spend my life indoors without enough daylight. Why would I want to do that but with even less light and more stuff trying to kill me?
I can’t tell if this is a joke comment or not. I don’t know what the letters stand for and as such it could be about almost anything.
For me “too much” was a long time ago. The price of graphics cards went insane at some point and it stopped being worth it. The last time I bought a graphics card new was in 2009 and that cost me, adjusted for inflation, £220 (Why do I still have the receipt…?). It was an nVidia GTX 260 and at the time was a fairly decent midrange card. Looking at graphics card pricing now, uh, nope, that wouldn’t buy me anything comparable - it looks like we’re talking ~£380 for midrange stuff, so a ~70% increase in price.
Whilst obviously the hardware is a lot more capable now than it was then, the amount of enjoyment I get out of gaming hasn’t gone up. If anything I enjoy gaming less now than I did then, although that’s more due to me getting older.
I’m constantly baffled as to how anyone can justify the cost of a decent gaming PC these days.
The PSP was both amazing and awful. So much squandered potential. So few developers did anything cool with it.
They appear in Warhammer a fair bit.
What about Starfox 2?
I’m perhaps the outlier in that I felt like San Andreas felt like they’d thrown shit at the wall to see what would stick. Most of the extra mechanics didn’t land for me at all and I was pleased to see them gone.
Must be NW in that case as I spent every summer from 1994 to 2005 near Hexham!
It’s not a UK thing I’ve ever heard of and I’ve lived in Wales, England, and Scotland.
That’s, uh, not what PIA means in this thread.
I was thinking the same - i hadn’t realised that it ever went away (as I don’t play the genres traditionally associated with in game ads).
