  • Apple Arcade has shifted to focus on games with higher 'engagement'

    Let's stop beating around the bush. THE GAMES SUCK.

    If Arcade cannot compete with traditional consoles or offer decent FPS games or games with loyal online bases like Fortnight or Halo, then really what's the point?

    Apple TV needs the latest chipset and big games like Tomb Raider or an exclusive GTA. Apple needs to stop playing. Either buy a big studio like Capcom or have an in-house developer that cranks out AAA games. Otherwise people will get bored with their bite-sized 2D crap and puzzlers.

    Apple IS NOT putting the same effort into Arcade that they did with iTunes, iPhone, iPad, Apple Card, Apple Music or even Apple TV+.
    Agreed 100%! Apple has never really taken gamers seriously

  • Hands on look at everything new in macOS Big Sur

    Did they change/update the way the OS handles iPhone syncing? When they got rid of iTunes in Catalina, the idevice syncing function seemed like it was hurriedly cobbled together and not very well done.

    I am a conservative and a enthusiastic Trump supporter. However, weakening encryption is such a bad idea. I am also a pro-lifer who has been an activist with over the past differing levels of involvement. I shudder to think of a time, when today’s Antifa comes to power and then exploits weakened encryption to “enforce the law” against someone like me who engages in legitimate activities, civil disobedience or similar..
    Well I am strongly progressive, vehemently anti Trump, vocally pro choice, and proud to say I am sympathetic with and have marched alongside Antifa.

    But I agree with you about the necessity of strong encryption. Personal liberty is dependant on strong encryption. Privacy is the foundation of the Bill of Rights and in the 21st century privacy is dependant on strong encryption. 
    You’ve marched alongside Antifa, a “proudly” Marxist terror organization? Ouch.
    Antifa isn’t an organization, it’s a belief. It stands for anti-fascist. Since when does being against fascism a bad thing?

  • Apple TV hardware is a great example of Apple's full-stack integration, and is overlooked

    Two things need to done to make it a truly worthwhile and usable streaming box:

    1. Fix the remote. The current one is crap. A perfect example of style over usability.
    2. Lower the price. It is significantly overpriced.

    Google's Knight in Shining Armor comes to its defense right on schedule. I was going to say this article will certainly trigger @Gatorguy but he was already triggered. My bad.
    In defense of the Gator, his company isn’t anywhere near as evil as Facebook.
    That’s a very low bar to clear...
