Fucking Dr. Who DVDs.

i completely forgot about this. crazy to think about how such shit can be considered normal

>buyfags still get a worse experience than some retarded brazilian googling "topgun maverk free moobi"
LMAO

Piracy for millions of people is facilitated by one person filming in a cinema or ripping a stream. The fact that corpos still think drm on a bluray will prevent piracy is insane

??????

>>212610547
What steam games have unskippable ads? Are you retarded?

>>212610614
Steam IS an ad. it is adware.

remember when game installers had that GameSpy shit? imagine if you NEEDED to install it. for a game you'd bought.

>>212610641
There are like 5 different ways you're being retarded right now. I don't even know where to begin. I think it's safest if you just commit suicide, you worthless retarded faggot.

This still kind of gives me PTSD

Steam gas a lot of problems but it solved a lot of old ones.

>>212610982
just download a patch. let me run the file on my computer.

the whole VAC/Steam ID thing was good for Valve games (Counter-Strike etc) but imagine if they pulled that shit with Quake.

Does anyone remember the vhs or DVD that had sexy beast and the limey as trailers? It might have had lords of dogtown.

>>212608579 (OP)

>the entire series of a show shows multiple FBI anti piracy warnings every time you have to change a disc after you already paid for it
I wish i was dead

The 300 DVD was by far the worst offender. Had some horrible romantic comedies trailers and when you thought it couldn't be worse it includes a trailer for the 300 videogame and the 300 movie for the Playstation Vita. What the fuck.

>>212608579 (OP)
fucking kek, thank you of reminding me of this. physical cucks are subhuman LMAOOOOO, piracy always wins

>>212612251
>I wish i was dead
I still love this shit, anyone who doesn’t enjoy the piracy it’s a crime add is ngmi

I watched the trailers every vhs, tmnt 1 and 2. Burger King baseball commercial, step kids, and suburban commando.

DVDs having clips from the movie that spoil the movie looping on the menu is genuinely fucking retarded and happened stupidly often.

They're fun when it's for old shit.

DVDs are meant for the kinossieur who purchases his kinos after appreciating them in the kinoplex.

>>212608579 (OP)
Am I the only person that misses the previews on DVDs? I'd get excited to go see whatever I thought was going to be good from the trailers.

Probably goes hand in hand with the fact there hasn't been a movie I've been excited to see this entire decade so far.

anyone else stop-stop-play?

Gamers are genuinely the biggest cattle out of all the mediums. Just spending fucking money and enjoying their mediocre pigslop while touting that their shit is the best thang evar!1!
People were actually surprised when they spent fucking money on that expensive Switch 2 and that fucking stupid Mario Kart game that costed literally $80 dollars. I know that nintentards are the worst of the bunch, but this is more indicative of gamers as a whole.

They're the dumbest and most mitwit people by far, and the state their industry is in is solely because of them and their desire to consooooom with pathetic pushback. Oh, and their shitty video game movies like God of War, RDR2, that Korean game where you just play as some chick or whatever, and Last of Us being forced down my throat, even when I'm in /lit/ thread is beyond fucking annoying. No, your shit is trash, nobody likes you, you have zero taste, you've never seriously read a classic book and understood it from multiple levels, and you need to shut the fuck up and go back to your containment zone.

>it requires Steam
This should've been rejected from the start, but that and the horse armour told me all I need to know.

>>212608579 (OP)

I need to rewatch this film

>>212610547
Steam actually doesn't have any DRM of its own. Games can and do ship on steam with no DRM, it's up to the devs.

>>212617615
>most mitwit people

uncanny seeing /tv/ posters get angry at gamers, is this some sort of new troony thing or something? This is pretty close to the least self-aware anger I've ever seen on 4chan

>how do we stop piracy?

>GENIUS

>>212617615
>Gamers are genuinely the biggest cattle out of all the mediums
They really are. Think about all the times EA has pissed gamers off. Their reaction: "I'll never buy another EA title again!" Until they make the next game they want.

Baffles me that they complain at all when they're some of the most eager paypiggies out there.

>>212613139
You're a liar.
My 1070 has played everything I wanted to play except Monster Hunter Wilds, and I have that on PS5.
I'm not going to pretend that large battles in TWW3 don't move at normal speed even when clicking fast forward though.
