RedRagan: In video game with two sides you can pick, always side with the group with a cute member because they're always the right group. From Sonic to Half Life 2 and now Road 96

Alexim: Well, I don't know anyone who complains about every single release like Breja does, so never take anything for granted. XD

RedRagan: LOL to be fair most of us already knew how Breja and that painkiller avatar guy gonna react. We simply downvote and merrily go our way. It's the equivalent of saying hi to the village idiot.
And you were gonna downvote me for... what, exactly? Expressing an opinion? Heaven forbid someone do that on a forum! I didn't insult anyone (unlike you), I didn't troll... I just said why I, personally, am not interested in a game.

It doesn't matter how many times I say something positive about a release. Doesn't matter in how many threads asking for recommendations I'll post a whole list of games and sing their praises. No, I'm the forum bogeyman who hates everything, and that's that. Really says a lot about people, how nothing, certainly not facts, matters as long it's more fun to hate somebody.

Speak of the Breja XD

Bruh, I'm not always downvoting your comment, but sometimes you deserves that tho. Even though you're still nicer than that painkiller avatar guy who either actually got something stuck in his butt or he's just a master troll.

Also calm down duide, are you still salty about Firefly cancellation?

You bet I am! Even more so since Disney announced their "family friendly" reboot.

AB2012: NOTE: "The "OMEN Ability" can also be unlocked in game, without the need to install third-party software."

^ What does that refer to? What is unlocked, and how (online vs offline, "needs Galaxy", etc)?
That refers to the OMEN Gaming Hub. Look at the attached screenshot.
A click on "Get" opens this website:

Edit: Now i got the OMEN ability in-game which is just an increased health bar. xD

Thanks for the information. I was wondering if it was yet another case of some content included with the game is artificially "locked" for no reason and then has to be unlocked with Galaxy (and doesn't work properly for the offline installers).
It's at a 2.3/5 general score/1/5 verified owner score here, and sitting at a very positive review!
(141, positive 15, negative over at steam.)
I wishlisted it all the same as it looks interesting enough as an interactive walking *err driving sim as I love that genre!

Wait, a reboot?

For real?

ANIMATED?

Well, on the bright side at least Nathan Fillion is in it right? I mean it's really hard to create new season of live action Firefly without trying to explain why Summer Glau and Nathan Fillion suddenly got a way lot older.
I gotta say that the trailer looked really good.
Whoever made the trailer did a nice job.
Kinda gave me flashbacks to Interstate 76 in some ways.

Wishlisted until I know more.

I can't wait for no reboot!
You guys talking about it made me drag out my Firefly DVD set once again.
I think I've already watched it all the way through a dozen times.

Firefly has always been one of my favorite shows. Time for me to break out the DVD as well. hahaha

As far as I know it's live action and a total reboot. As in, no original actors, they'd start the whole thing over from square one. Aiming for a long-running family friendly show for Disney +.

But apparently I was misremembering when I said it was an "announcement". It's not official yet.

Fuckin' hell do I despise disney with a white-hot passion with their family-friendly saccharine-suburban-shit-festification of decent TV shows/movies!
Oh man, that article.

`This shift in tone suggests the new version of Firefly might drop characters like Inara, who is basically a prostitute. `

She was a key character in the story. It is offensive that they would even infer this as a good reason to remove one of the principle characters

But, I guess it being Disney they cant have that.

I suppose there wont be any more tongue and cheek lines like "I have not had anything twixt my nethers that does not run on batteries." :D
