Oh no so they have been blacklisted for two years, but only now have the testicular fortitude to come out and say they have been blacklisted?
They couldn’t have a spine and say so right away?
Pull your head out of the sand and realize that Kotaku is not standing proud, they are curled so tightly into a ball that they…

Now correct me if I’m wrong, but hasn’t Kotaku always referred to itself as a gaming blog, not a journalistic gaming site? Since that way any criticism on poorly done click bait articles can be brushed off as, a “not our job”.
So I don’t really see why a large company would want to hand out early copies of games to a…

OK, when I started reading your comments, I actually thought you were making a valid argument and was genuinely concerned for the privacy of his family. But now, I see this for what it is.

“In my mind he will just be some corporate guy trying to make money from cheaply made games.”

You don’t have to know someone to be able to attend their funeral an pay respects. Who are you to say how a funeral should be run? Lots of people didn’t know Robin Williams yet he still touched our lives; the same goes for Freddy Mercury of Queen and many many more artists, actors, creators in our lifetimes.

And so…

God damn it I hate the internet sometimes

Hey, some people whom he may have not met do care who he was.

It's an odd form of entertainment and unless get into it personally it's really hard to explain to an outsider. Taking away all the "wrestling is fake" and "those injuries are real" and basic arguments you've heard for decades there's something a bit deeper that's harder to pin down.

Why the fuck would anyone play such games on Steam in the first place? Where everybody can see you play, and even if you play offline can see those games in your library?

I can dig this. I just wish the character art wasn't so inconsistent. Sometimes (in the images here), it seems pretty decent, but other times it just looks very amateurish, with not enough time spent on polishing and refining.

Been hearing a lot of complaining about the 'tank controls'. I don't understand why people have such a tough time with them. Your character maintains orientation between camera shifts, and forward always moves them forward, its hardly 'cumbersome'.

You mean the system that people have been enjoying in 2013, 2014, and 2015?

Next gen is 7 years away. Let's do current gen!

Can we get a sequel now?

I WISH that was the kind of thing we'd see in HD re-releases from the big developers.. Man, that would be so cool.

I was making a Last Crusade reference, man.

Can we get this guy on Patreon? I'd happily contribute a couple of bucks a month to support him.

he does a better macho man than peter griffin, well except in appearance.

...what is this crap filler post?

Am I fan of the series? Yes. Do I enjoy that they had a game, that had plot elements, released on an entirely different system? Lord no. Also I like how you say Birth By Sleep, explains everything that happens in the series, but was released after 1, CoM, and 2. Because I need to buy another game to explain what is…
