Recently I started a collection of all GTA physical releases. My plan is to try and collect as many as I can, including different platforms, regions, releases etc.

I'm tracking my collection here - https://t.co/78bBtKpzqS

Let me know if I've missed any cool GTA releases!

Twitch is about to further ruin their sponsorship portal

In this new update, an AI tool is going to monitor your chat and report the messages back to the sponsor, and also monitor your literal speaking tone and report on that too, to make sure you're "on-brand"

@batouttahell24 There's no context, it's just a joke the mod team added like a decade ago

I'm so glad we added this rule, it's been keeping the leaderboards in conversation for like a decade lmao

I've been enjoying Grand Theft Auto 4 and was wondering what the speedrun looks like...

Why is there a rule about prohibited substances?

[English Ben @NotEnglishBen]

@brycelar7522706 @Ecdycis They do, runners must provide a sample for testing

@BladeOpotato Adding an hour-long mission to a PC port that crashes every five minutes (even with SilentPatch) is bold lmao

Hope there's autosave

[English Ben @NotEnglishBen]

The fact that this isn't the first game that has released and shut down within a matter of weeks is so embarrassing for the industry.

Stop making these dead on arrival generic shooters, the market is so insanely oversaturated I BEG YOU

If you're passionate about preservation, lend your bandwidth to a project that is preserving all of Myrient before it goes offline on March 31st!

No large storage required (downloads/uploads/deletes each file automatically)

https://t.co/COeX31g40j

They even have a leaderboard!

[English Ben @NotEnglishBen]

@darkjet505 You run a Python script on your PC that downloads files from Myrient, uploads them to the archive site and then deletes them from your machine, that's all

Easy enough to set up, the community has a guide here with instructions - https://t.co/TKdCYQxUpG

First time I've seen someone get community noted for lying about speedrunning lmao
