Why does this look like a stack of tuna cans

[–] DataCrime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Because the last time you saw that packaging was the 90’s and those colors were everywhere 😆

[–] Tiral@lemmy.world 8 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

You know the lady that developed the paint brush design on paper cups didn't make a dollar from it? The company did like an internal contest and she "won"

[–] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago

Wow, that's fucked.

they should ship the game on this

[–] noname_yet2077@lemmy.world 44 points 1 day ago (1 children)

no AI instalation wizard? no paywall? no internet connection required? no face scan based age verification? 🥺👉👈

[–] undefined@lemmy.hogru.ch 18 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I don’t game, nor do I use Windows or generally install software via random executables (package managers ftw) — all that to say, “do AI installation wizards really exist?”

[–] flandish@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (2 children)

btw “package manager” is just a way to categorize your “random” execs. plenty of nonsense sneaks in. please still review your exec sources.

[–] undefined@lemmy.hogru.ch 2 points 9 hours ago

There’s a difference between installing from (hopefully) a trusted source than going to some random website and downloading a fucking executable.

And I’m not even getting into fake download ads on Google or the multitude of other problems that come along with this style of software installation.

[–] meekah@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

I mean, generally package managers are hosted by a trusted party that screens execs before making them available. But yeah, still think about where you get your software from.

[–] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 2 points 19 hours ago

That's why the Microsoft store is the best place to get applications on windows./s

If they don't yet, I'm certain they will in the near future.

[–] baguettefish@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

an AI installation wizard is one of those openclaw bots installed on your machine with root permissions and you tell it to install firefox

[–] MrScottyTay@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

So a package manager with extra steps? Even windows has a package manager so what's the point of an AI install wizard?

[–] grranibal@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago

Shareholders

[–] Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Okay how big did they say the game is gonna be? Can’t be more than 200 GB

[–] DataCrime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

So only 4, 100 packs… and a slot loading drive with a robot arm. We can do this ;-)

[–] Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works 3 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago) (1 children)

200 GB / 5 GB = 40 ~~GB~~

That pack is enough for two copies

Edit: 🤦

[–] polotype@lemmy.ml 3 points 16 hours ago

Those units are having a fun time

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 16 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Just sell it on an SSD. That way even the regular version is over $100.

[–] michaelalf@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

With the current prices of SSDs it would be one very expensive game. $80 for the base game + ~$80 for a 512gb SSD... Ouch. Though I would 100% buy it for the novelty and just to own a physical copy instead of some randomly generated code.

[–] remon@ani.social 7 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I hope it ships with a dvd drive too, because no one has those any more.

[–] wizardbeard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Blu-ray drives can be expensive, but USB DVD drives are only ~$20.

I'd also expect anyone who would care about the "physical" edition of the next GTA only being a download code in the box would have a disc drive on the device they wanted to install it on.

[–] flandish@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

or they just want to complete a collection. even if the physical media contains a code and some map pdfs etc.

[–] Washedupcynic@lemmy.ca 1 points 19 hours ago

I have one that plugs into my PC via USB port. I still listen to my audio CDs with it. I also was ferried to school on the backs of dinosaurs.
