@emilyharpist You becoming a gun person was not on my
Bingo card. Also, cool last name.

These types of games are really fun but Ubisoft needs to lock in on their best IPs to get back in the game. Experiment on the side but you could count on one hand how many were successful. XDefiant being considered one of them but even it is considered a failure.

[Mark Rubin @PixelsofMark]

It's still crazy to me that #XDefiant became the fastest-growing game in Ubisoft history.

Fastest ever to 5 million players and topped out over 15 million players.

That was done not by fancy marketing campaigns but by pure word of mouth. And yea free-to-play of course made that possible but if I did it again I would prefer paid over free-to-play.

But it was absolutely tragic that we couldn't get the netcode in a good enough place and that our cosmetic content was such a struggle.

But I really do miss this game and I played it almost everyday for 6 years. And I still miss playing it.

Well, after 8 years, my Seagate 8TB HDD finally died. It served me well. 🫡

@harveyspistols Groooooooovy!

[Harvey's Pistol & Pawn @harveyspistols]

Well..
I found The Rascal.
Straight Chillin'.

Goober sat there enjoying his music, for a long while. I just stood there, pretended to be unimpressed with what he had done to the library, and waited for his dramatic pause to conclude. After a while he just grinned and handed me this Canik Prime Radian in 9mm and grey finish.

"They'll dig this", is all he said.

I left him vibing and got right to posting.

This week Harvey, Rascal, and @SummRidge are proud to offer up the highly coveted @canikarms Prime Radian 9mm pistol.

Do us a all a solid folks and explain the details in the comment section!

Good luck
Godspeed
Keep Vibing!

@harveyspistols @HardPass4 @Half_A_Pond Me hopefully next week

[Harvey's Pistol & Pawn @harveyspistols]

Found Rascal out back passed out next to the picnic table. I was worried he'd been into the sauce again. Turns out he had but thankfully this time it wasn't the full on hard stuff, just that tasty @Half_A_Pond Kentucky Rebel Scum sauce!

We have a few more summer days left and a few more bbq's left to enjoy! This week Rascal wants to give you a fireside 6" Colt .357 Python and is including some sauce so good it made his hair stand up!

As always we thank @SummRidge for helping us make these happen every week!

I am depending on you kind folks to tell the people what to do and how to participate!

Don't dawdle and miss out on the sauce! Get in on this one, my friends!

Ghost of Tsushima? You mean “Aura Farmer Simulator 2020”?

[Tristan Hopkins @DrJimmyPop]

Which is hilarious about the post credit scene. Someone in space updated the app while they were up there.

[m✮rls! @leccult]

@sentrynation the spidey tracker is run by the public basically so if someone spots spider-man they put it into the app or if someone posts a photo of him on social media the app tracks that. was that what u meant 😭

[Tristan Hopkins @DrJimmyPop]

Just finished Last of Us Part 2 and I don’t know what you guys were all bitching about.

@Halo should take a page out of Resident Evil’s book. Remake every other year alternating new entries into the series. When you run out of remakes or remasters, start doing side projects, like Halo Wars and ODST.

[Tommy Stella @tommy_stella]

jon bernthal should have recorded a video that would play before spider-man where he says that if you talk during the movie he will kill you with a gun

[Tristan Hopkins @DrJimmyPop]

@harveyspistols @innoutburger Please god this is the one I need.

[Harvey's Pistol & Pawn @harveyspistols]

There is so much that could be said about this week's giveaway.

I will simply hit the main points:

A man, Jordan Salinas, who seems to dig Splinter Cell went from live action role play to live action and likely saved many lives in Twin Falls, Idaho at the @innoutburger in doing so.

We celebrate that in today's litigious culture this man chose to risk his life and his liberty by doing the righteous thing. He held to his convictions by going armed and by running towards the direction of gunfire, of imminent danger. Reports are that he rendered medical aid after the gunfire ceased, as well.

In honor of this man and that masculine sacrificial heroic American spirit that runs, not away from conflict, but that fights for the opportunity to get between evil and goodness, and effectively, Rascal is proud to do a little LARPing himself.

Today, dressed as Jordan, Rascal offers up an FN Five-seveN 5.7x28mm pistol with fde frame and black slide!

We thank @SummRidge for sponsoring yet another giveaway!

TO ENTER this week's festivities: FOLLOW us and @SummRidge , REPOST or QUOTE POST this post, and REPLY to this post.

Let's share this one far and wide, my friends!

Good Luck
Godspeed
Keep Going
and Go Armed!
