![]() Then, you make a side deal where you'll pay $399,999 for a houseplant. Then you have a revelation: why should we pay commission to these realtors? Instead, you agree to buy the house for $1, so you only have to pay $0.14 in commission. But nothing prevents app developers from giving those things away, too, nor does anything pre Occasionally, they're things like articles of clothing for a character, in which case, yay, Apple distributes an extra half a kilobyte as part of the app bundle. They're mostly things like "1000 crystals" or whatever - in-game things that you can earn in other ways or that you can pay for if you want to save time and effort. In-app purchases are not generally something "delivered". Or the law fails to pass and Epic still loses.Ī better analogy would be if Amazon decided to require all of their third-party merchants to use Fulfillment By Amazon, and the government passed a law that says, "No, you can't do that." Another better analogy would be the government compelling eBay to stop requiring the use of PayPal after that acquisition.īetter than that, this is forcing Amazon to sell and ship the item, but they don't get any payment for any of their work as the manufacturer direct charges the customer and avoids paying Amazon for any of the delivery or even the cost of the product itself, and the web hosting of the listing. In the end, it's going to be a fun fight - because either Apple has to open up, which forces Microsoft/Sony/Nintendo to open up and Epic loses badly because they've just screwed over their golden goose. In the end, it's going to be one precariously narrow path to separate the two - which means all Apple has to do is change one thing and it's excluded again. And given the heavy indie game push, it's even more dubious. It also can't be the fact that Microsoft/Nintendo/Sony screen developers, because for $20 you can write code for the Xbox (which is how the Xbox has even greater backwards compatibility these days, being able to do what Sony don't - play PSX and PS2 games). And vice-versa, with many games on PC and consoles moved to mobile. (Yes, there are many really good non-ripoff mobile games, and quite a few moved from iPhone and Androids to PC and game consoles). That it can run Office? You can use Office with the Xbox, too (using O365 and the built-in browser).Īnd that's where all the nastiness comes in - because do it enough and it looks like you're just targeting Apple, which makes it a bill of attainder even without mentioning Apple by name.Īnd if you say "Xbox is a game console" well, what's the definition of a game console? Apple certainly makes "game consoles" by most reasonable definitions - their devices play games, some so sophisticated that they've jumped from mobile to PC and game consoles. ![]() There has to be a solid legal definition that defines what Apple and Google does as distinct from what Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo do, and other than really contorted arguments that really go into fine minutiae, it starts being complex.Īfter all, all the stores sell apps and games - granted you can do more with an iPhone than an Xbox, but then you have to define what that "more" is. That's like creating a law that applies to Walmart and Target, but not to another department store, like Walgreens. We know why (Epic would be banned almost immediately), but there has to be legal justification for why one store is allowed, and not another. The bill specifically exempts game consoles "and other special-purpose devices that are connected to the internet," and it also bars companies like Apple and Google from retaliating against developers who choose to use third-party payment systems.īecause a law needs ot explain why exclusions exist. ![]() The amendment specifically prohibits stores exceeding 1 million downloads from requiring "a developer that is domiciled in this state to use a particular in-application payments system as the exclusive mode of accretive payments from a user." It also covers users living in Arizona from having to pay for apps using exclusive payment systems. It will now head to the state senate, where it must pass before its sent to Arizona Gov. ![]() From a report: The legislation, a sweeping amendment to Arizona's existing HB2005, prevents app store operators from forcing a developer based in the state to use a preferred payment system, putting up a significant roadblock to Apple and Google's ability to collect commissions on in-app purchases and app sales. The Arizona House of Representatives just passed landmark app store legislation in a 31-29 vote on Wednesday that could have far-reaching consequences for Apple and Google and their respective mobile operating systems.

![]() Gangstar: Miami Vindication is an open-world action-adventure video game published by Gameloft and developed by at least one of its subsidiaries it is the 5th game in the Gangstar series and was released for Android and iOS on Septemat a price of $6.99. Remove this template when finished.Īction-adventure (primarily third-person graphical perspective) Help Gangstar Wiki by finishing the article. As happy as I am though with the Gangstar series, I'll be extremely annoyed if the next game is called Gangstar: Chinatown Rumble.Some information is missing regarding to the subject. With its huge city, impressive voice acting, and competent controls, I'd say that Miami Vindication is a big win for Gameloft. ![]() They need to get their priorities straight.Īll in all, even with the graphical snafus, I think that Miami Vindication will please just about anyone who wants to play a good GTA-like game. In a city like the one in Miami Vindication, the cops should be much more worried about people dying in traffic than a bit of drug smuggling. People run into each other and into stop lights at rates that no city should become accustomed to. Occasionally, your boat will just wobble uncontrollably or your car will sometimes jump from roads onto bridges from underneath. The strange movement issues aren't just with the people, though, as the vehicle driving mechanics have some bizarre moments. Their movements are all extremely robotic, and their actions are equally as strange. Unlike the nicely rendered cities and vehicles, the people are pretty sloppy looking. Everything in the city is beautifully rendered, but there are some little graphical quirks that are bothersome. Included in the city is a slew of new vehicles to drive, including boats, motorcycles, and cars. The game's build of Miami is enormous, with Gameloft calling it "the most immersive full-3D crime simulation ever on iPhone/iPod Touch." The game has over 75 missions that span downtown, Miami Beach, the harbor, Miami Bay, and the swamps. ![]() The most impressive thing of all in Miami Vindication is the sheer size of the game. The swearing isn't overdone so you won't have to go clean your ears out like you did after playing Corporate Fury. I think I heard my first F-bomb less than five minutes in - something that I wasn't expecting. Also, unlike the original iteration of the Gangstar series, Miami Vindication took very little time at all to start swearing. Characters, for the most part, had accents that correctly represented their ethnicity and overall shadiness (although in one scene their was a dirty Latino cop that sounded like he could've been from Ohio). What I didn't expect was that the stories they told would be voice acted as well as they were. As you'd expect, there are a fair number of gang leaders, mob bosses, shady police, and women with skintight clothing, all with a story to tell. Missions are easy to follow, don't require too much jumping (jumping never works well with these games), and don't veer too far from the overall story.Īs far as the story goes, it's a bit hokey, but no more hokey than its Vice City counterpart. Nothing that Gangstar: Miami Vindication has to offer will blow you away in the originality department, but it is all done well. The missions span from the typical "steal this car, kill this guy missions" to races, tailing cars, and taking pictures for surveillance. The game itself follows the same formula that GTA mastered so well many years ago: go to base, watch a little cut-scene, get task, complete task, head to base for another task. Sure, you'll still waste some time, but I'd say that 90% of my play time was dedicated to the actual game. Miami Vindication lets you voluntarilly cut out most of the side business (killing random pedestrians, running from cops, jumping cars) and lets you focus more on the game at hand. As much as I like walking aimlessly around beautifully crafted cities, I'd rather play a game in the process. All to often in GTA I feel like I am running around doing nothing. What I like most about Gameloft's interpretation of the GTA system is that they seem to give the game more focus. Regardless of my thought on the matter, Gangstar: Miami Vindication is a well-crafted GTA clone that will please even the most deep rooted doubters. Maybe I'm wrong in thinking that innovation is the key to success, but it seems that Gameloft is really missing their opportunity to break off from their GTA clone status and really try to take the lead in the genre. I still don't know why Gangstar couldn't have been set in New York or Houston or London, or any city besides Miami. I thought that it would be more of Gameloft trying to outdo someone else at their own game (in this case, with Grand Theft Auto: Vice City), and that, in the end, it would be a fairly drab affair. I was admittedly apprehensive going in to review Gangstar: Miami Vindication. Yusuke's confidant abilities are different in P5 Royal. Duplicate your skill cards in Persona 5 Royal You can retrieve completed cards by talking to Yusuke after the duplicating process is complete, but this process takes at least a day.Ī temporary downside is that you can't immediately duplicate mid to high level skill cards, as you'll need to raise Yusuke's Trust Rank to 5 and 7 first. To duplicate a card, you must give it to Yusuke along with a blank card. Yusuke will duplicate skill cards for you for free. The former allows Yusuke to paint skill cards onto blank cards for medium skills, while the latter is for high-end skills. However, you will need to reach Yusuke's Trust Rank 5 to unlock "Adept Duplication" and Rank 7 to unlock Master Duplication. At the start of his confidant, Yusuke will learn the process of "novice duplicating" skill cards, making it easy to get to. These abilities allow Yusuke to paint skill cards onto blank cards. This feature is due to Yusuke's "Novice Duplication", "Adept Duration", and "Master Duplication" trusted abilities. You can duplicate skill cards you already have by converting blank cards into skill cards through Yusuke Kitagawa. Duplicate your skill cards via Yusuke in Persona 5 Therefore, you must save your game before using the electric chair during an alarm. Note that during an alarm, the chance of failure will also be higher, meaning you might not get any items. Therefore, if you're playing P5 Royal, you should get your endgame gear when the alarm goes off. The following is exclusive to Persona 5 Royal.Ī detailed Persona will create stronger than usual skill cards when you detail during an alarm. Detailing: Persona 5 Royal Unique Mechanics In the metaverse, materials can come from open chests, defeated enemies, or Jose's shop. In the real world, you can get them through Tanaka's amazing products or some stores. You can find the basic materials in the metaverse and in the real world. Finally, the blank card is used to break down the personas into skill cards. Typically, base materials are Black Kogatana for melee weapons, Black Robe for armor, Model Gun for weapons, Black Rock for accessories. To perform the conversion, you will need a Persona and a base material. The room's electric chair can only be used once per day in P5 however, you can use it multiple times per day in P5 Royal. Personas can be detailed to create skill cards or equipment in the Velvet Room. This section will explain how to turn your blank cards into usable skill cards using Yusuke's inventory and abilities. How to Use Blank Skill Cards in Persona 5 You can use the skill cards on any of the protagonist characters. Besides getting Skill Cards as a rare drop from enemies, you can force them to give you Skill Cards. Random steals and reward requests may also generate blank cards. Keep in mind that out of all the chests you can find in Persona 5, 23 of them are locked. ![]() Be sure to check every chest in a palace if you go hunting. Once you unlock the maps for a palace and walk past a chest, it will show up on the map. You can find skill cards and blank cards in chests. Therefore, its mobile store is only accessible once you reach it. He appears randomly in Mementos, but the map will indicate his arrival with a cutscene of him driving past the Phantom Thieves. Purchasing blank cards at a retail outlet called “José's Shop” is another way to go. It includes one of the basic skills such as Agi, Garu, Psy, Dia, Kouha, Tarukaja, Bufu, Frei, Zio, Eiha, Rakukaja, Sukukaja and three blank cards. You can download the free Skill Cards DLC pack named “Skill Card set” for P5 and P5 Royal. The following subsections will cover the different ways to get Skill Cards and Blank Cards. You can get blank cards by defeating enemies and opening chests. A blank card is needed for each sacrifice. However, you need blank cards to get skill cards through running in the Velvet Room. You receive skill cards by defeating enemies, opening chests, sacrificing specific characters in the velvet room (itemization) through Yusuke's abilities, and completing side missions. Not all skills are available as a skill card, and only protagonist characters are customizable through skill cards. You can only use a skill card once, although it is possible to have multiple copies of the same skill card at once. To unlock skill cards in Persona 5, you will need to go to the Second Palace and get Yusuke Kitagawa's Confidant Contract. ![]() While you can't turn all skills into skill cards, this guide will cover the skills that can become skill cards in Persona 5/Royal, regardless of platform. Named after spells, Skill Cards allow any Joker character to learn skills they can't learn by passing alone. In Persona 5, Skill Cards are special items that can be obtained in different ways. Three New Enemy Vehicles - The Gallant Urban Assault Tank sports a variety of weapons to fight at all ranges with speed and agility, the Packrat is a battlefield support vehicle equipped with a prototype version of ECM, and the Rotunda is a reconnaissance vehicle equipped with a prototype version of Active Probe. New Flashpoints - A wide variety of new branching short stories that link together mercenary missions, crew conversations, special events, critical choices, and rare bonus rewards. The Javelin is a compromise between speed and firepower, with close-range knockout power. Two New BattleMechs - The experimental Raven 1X sports an advanced electronic warfare package that combines ECM and Active Probe systems into a lightweight component. Meanwhile, ‘Mechs equipped with Active Probe can reveal, locate, and target enemy units that would otherwise be hidden. ‘Mechs equipped with Electronic Countermeasures (ECM) and nearby friendly units are obscured from enemy targeting systems and immune to indirect fire. Abandoned explosive fuel trucks, destroyed coolant exchanger buildings, and broken electrical transformers that disrupt targeting will drastically change the battle as you go.Įlectronic Warfare - The return of these lost technologies will forever change the 31st century battlefield. ![]() Every building in the new urban biome is fully destructible, so you’re never more than a few salvos away from a new line of sight, or the defensive cover of high-rise rubble. Urban Warfare - Street brawls introduce new tactical gameplay challenges as ‘Mech combat moves from wide-open natural landscapes to vast urban sprawls. ![]() With new urban challenges, the return of lost technologies, new ‘Mechs, vehicles, encounters and flashpoints, Urban Warfare takes the BATTLETECH experience to new, gritty heights.

If he does not acknowledge the periodic alert by pressing the button, then after another preset time, the radio sends out an alarm message. Lone Worker A feature of some walkie-talkies where at certain preset time intervals, the radio user is alerted to press a button to "tell" a control centre that he is OK. Joint Frequency Management Group (JFMG) A committee that assigns radio frequencies to different companies and organisations using radio equipment at certain major events where there could be clashes of users of radio frequencies. For example, IP67 means that the product is completely dustproof and can be immersed in water. The higher each number, the higher the level of protection provided. The first number relates to solid particle ingress protection, the second to liquid protection. IP (Ingress Protection) Ratings These are an international standard series of protection levels against dirt, dust and liquids getting inside a piece of equipment. The use of FRS radios in the UK and Europe is not legal, although not uncommon, due to people purchasing American radios whilst on holidays and bringing them home, and also buying them online, without realising the legal issues involved. GMRS radios can have up to 5 watts power output, giving longer ranges than FRS radios. They use frequencies around 462 and 467MHz. Radios that combine the FRS (see above) and GMRS channels are widely sold. GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service) This is an American government standard for UHF walkie-talkies that can be bought and used in the USA and Canada with no restrictions, although a licence is supoosed to be obtained from the FCC (Federal Communications Commission). FRS radios have 14 channels, and use frequencies around 462 and 467MHz. ![]() FRS (Family Radio Service) This is an American government standard for short-range UHF walkie-talkies that can be bought and used in the USA and Canada with no restriction and no licence required. In the United Kingdom the same role is carried out by OFCOM. FCC (Federal Communications Commission) The American government organisation that oversees and controls access to the radio airwaves. CTCSS codes are sometime referred to as "privacy codes" and also (somewhat inaccurately) as "sub channels". It allows several groups of radio users to make use of the same channel without constantly hearing messages not intended for their group. CTCSS (Continuous Tone Controlled Squelch System) A method of making most use of a given radio channel, where a group of radios are set to transmit an inaudible tone with every transmission, and at the same time to only receive messages with the same tone set. Charging usually takes 1-3 hours for a totally discharged battery. Users of larger numbers of walkie-talkies often have multi-slot chargers that can charge six or more radios at one time. ![]() The charger is plugged into a wall socket, and usually consists of a power transformer, and then the actual charging cradle that you place the radio into. Charger This is the electrical device into which you place a walkie-talkie to recharge its battery pack. Please do not confuse a "base station" with a walkie-talkie charger unit, as described below. A base station is often a more powerful radio with longer range than a small, battery powered walkie-talkie. Base Station The term "base station" refers to a radio that is used from a fixed location, usually using mains electrical power and a permanent or semi-permanent antenna. Most walkie-talkie battery packs can be charged while attached to the radio or separately, thus allowing users to have spare batteries on charge, ready to be quickly swapped for discharged ones without having to wait for batteries to recharge. It usually makes up the rear of the body of the radio, and can be detached using some kind of catch. Battery Pack All professional walkie-talkies come with a rechargeable battery pack.

In this case, your job is what pays the bills and your business is what makes you wealthy. Just stay at your full time job and “mind your own business”. Anything that takes money out of your pocket each month is a liability. Assets are stocks, bonds, real estate that you rent out, royalties (for example from music) and anything that generates money and increases in value over time. Liabilities can be cars with monthly payments, a house with a mortgage, and of course debt. Use your money to acquire assets instead of liabilities. It’ll create pressure to be creative in making money and show you what you can afford.

That’s why it’s important to stay motivated. Treat the money as if it’s gone forever and you’ll worry less about losing it.Īs soon as you start your journey towards wealth, you’ll realize that it’ll be quite a long one. Don’t start big, just set aside a small amount, like $1,000 or even $100, and invest it in stocks, bonds, or even tax lien certificates. Also, learn about investments to understand that it’s better to not play it safe because you’ll miss big potential rewards. The first step toward building wealth lies in the mindset of managing risks instead of avoiding them. Set aside 5% of your income each month to buy books, courses and attend seminars on personal finance to start building your financial IQ. Take a job in a field you have no clue about, such as sales, customer service or communications, to develop new skills – you never know what they might be good for. Next, adopt the mindset of “work to learn” instead of “work to earn”. This way you’ll be able to set realistic financial goals, even if it means waiting for that shiny new BMW.
