Sorry but this made me lol. xD; I have never tried the grocery delivery things. Must be a pain to rely on this stuff. But I suppose not everyone can just use Teleport.
I disagree with your opinion piece.
Without getting unnecessarily long-winded, I'll just point out that you mention that even the basic pokemon catching mechanic is a loot box.
You're not technically wrong if you look at it so narrowly--but any reasonable player would see that that basic...
Late last May, good hax0rz security researchers discovered that a lot of home internet routers have been getting infected by malware, which allowed bad guys to spy on your Internet traffic--including on websites that you'd expect to be secure because you access them with HTTPS.
It works similar...
Pokemon GO's staying power is phenomenal and I had no doubt since Day 1 that this would be the case, given that Niantic's behind it and their work on Ingress spoke for itself. One of the key enablers of this is the fact that the game runs on your phone--a device most people have with them all...
They just posted it, so I thought I'd share. :) Pretty cute trailer.
One neat thing I noticed is that legendary raid passes appear to direct users to a particular location:
This could make it easier to ensure that when you join a raid, there will be other people present to help you take it...
Apparently, there's an easter egg in Pokemon GO as far as Eeveelutions go. You can make them evolve into the type you want by naming them with reference to the anime:
Rainer -> Vaporeon
Sparky -> Jolteon
Pyro -> Flareon
Some say that you may need to restart the app for the name change to be...
Looks like more details have been compiled based on interviews with field testers. The graphics are pretty neat, too, though subject to change as the game is still under development.

Looks like aiming the throw is a game mechanic for catching Pokemon (who will try to dodge by jumping and moving around?) but there's no weakening them through battle to make them easier to catch. Unless of course...
A horrible coordinated terrorist attack took place in Paris, France today. 120 people dead, with some estimates higher. The attacks took place around the city, though the worst incident was at a concert venue, where a hostage crisis was involved.
Attack sites:
Bataclan concert venue, 50...

I've seen a few ignorant postings about how this wouldn't be a "real game" because it's "just an app" or what have you. Ultimately, we don't really know what it will turn out to be like but I strongly feel that people should me more optimistic given who the developers are: Niantic (a talented...
It might work much like Ingress' database for landmarks and objects of interests. It's not only big landmarks that get indexed, but things like park signs, local churches and businesses, community centres, etc. The community can also submit new locations into the database and they'll get added...
