I lost 250 dollars worth of VC games in 2008 B/C I did not send it to Nintendo to be fixed. I thought b/c Play and Trade in my area fixed Nintendo products that they were approved. WHOOPS! MY bad on that one! Then I had to send my Wii to Nintendo for a power problem, and they wouldn't touch it b/c I had violated the…
He's not saying that FPS will be on the only gaming genre left, he's saying that First person games are the only type of games that people would play in a holo-deck/matrix type game. Look at the Oculus Rift, you don't exactly see people playing Civilization with that, you see them playing Skyrim, Battlefield, and…
Kotaku does not like me...
The headlines around the world about Sean Smith last year were mostly about how he left this Earth. But this is a…
STOP! Read this before you post one of these things:
I don't think he really acts like a child, let alone a "complete fucking" one. He does occasionally say things that are unpopular with some people, and he gets angry and expresses himself sometimes, as well. But that doesn't mean he's a child. It means he's a human being.
I find the games that get mixed reviews are the ones I enjoy most. I mentioned it in response to Bioshock Infinite's stellar scores but when I see a game get a 7-8 I tend to value it higher than a 10 these days. Someone postulated the discrepancy is because 7-8's tend to have points reduced because they have less of a…
"The Thief games don't really need an introduction."
It's an old nickname for Shanghai, and it tells very well what the game is about. “If god allows Shanghai to endure, he will owe Sodom and Gomorrah an apology” some french dude said hundred years ago.
Console: $300, plus $60 games and subscription fees for online play. Additional DLC varies between $1-50 (in-game buffs to "season passes").
The Homeworld IP was reserved for a secondary THQ auction that is currently underway. The final bids for that auction are due April 15 apparently, so we'll know relatively soon who'll get the Homeworld IP.
Amazing how quickly my interest in something drop when it's mentioned that it's a F2P. I love homeworld so much, but you just can't make a compelling narrative in F2P model. Sigh maybe the homeworld IP will be picked up by someone who'll do right by it. I can always dream.
I'd agree, because I find it odd that the PC is so ignored outside the cases when a few longstanding heavy-weights like Valve or Blizzard are mentioned, or some new radical development is happening to PC like the kickstarter thing...and even then the coverage is like a passing fad until kotaku goes back to talking…
Good question!
:) But yeah, I would really love to see an increase in PC content on this sight though.
I wouldn't say Kotaku's attention to the other things is "disproportionate," rather than inordinate.
Definitely this. My Kickstarter failed to reach it's 20k goal. A goal that might have been reached had sites like Kotaku agreed to cover it. Unfortunately, the trend with Kickstarter coverage on every big site these days is to ignore the real independent guys trying to actually kickstart a career in the industry…
Bring back Flashback. Also talk about old games. All kinds of old games.
Please, as a night owl, the late night stuff from Kotaku East has to change. I enjoy reading kotaku basically any time of the day except for during Kotaku East. It is such irrelevant nonsense, and yet we always get the same response "we're allowed to post irrelevant japanese nonsense because it is sort of related to…
