    Ah yes consoles 😉 and not missile guidance hardware disguised as consoles. Bet China asked them to do this, so Chinese consumer electronics manufactures can supply war machines to Russia without risking to get completely shutout of the US and EU market.

      TBH that explains a lot. Kyiv is pretty much B if you look at the map of Ukraine. And the reason the Russians couldn’t properly rush it is because they didn’t have enough P90s.

    “And it can play all the games at 144fps in 4k?”

    “Da.”

    “Now where is the mechanism that brainwashes the user to hate capitalism?”

    “That’s in the game. You see, Vlad, we put special hats in the game and the only way to obtain them is by buying keys to unlock boxes that only give you a small, random chance at getting the hat you want.”

    “Da… Da… This pleases me.”

    I regret go inform you that Russia already runs it’s own Steam. It just has thousands of contributors and doesn’t make any money. Even Steam has trouble competing with it!

      Those are games not consoles or distribution platforms.

        I meant that we already have a steam-like platform with only 2 good games. It’s called VK play.
