650 MEGABYTE on some shiny plastic disk, when your harddrive was a whopping 40MB?
Yeah that was pretty damn magical.

Then a while later we could make our own, if the buffer underruns didn't turn your $10 empty into a coaster.

The only thing missing is the "this side towards enemy" sticker.

Fully agreed. The layout is just the best.
With everything in reach, and the best potitioning of buttons, sticks, and the dpad of any controller out there. And that's not even mentioning added convenience of the touchpads.

If they just copy the whole thing verbatim for the steam controller 2, it'll be a smash hit.

Still would like it to just use the width of the window though.
I know that it's become a popular "style" for some reson, but it wastes SO much space. Especially on wider/higher res monitors.

"Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it"

Having been there, the part that i'm not seeing much on is the all-out warfare.
Near the end everyone got so goddamn fed up, that we just downvoted everything that wasn't a direct rebuke of the god-awful redesign (and upvoted some of the most rancid shit you ever did see).
People were stalking the new queues and just nuking everything from orbit.

Got so bad that they had to actively pull in RSS feeds (with downvote special exemptions) just to have something, ANYTHING that wasn't "FUCK THIS SHIT" or a goatse man, so people just went into the comments to do battle.

Won't reach that "burn everything" stage just yet, but by golly are they trying...
