must suck for people who have been working through a game for a year, spent a hundred dollars on game pass, and now have to buy a real copy if they didn’t finish it.

all that money but not an ounce of taste. 

sure, but at the end of the day, the quality of the games produced really does count for a lot. sony cleaned xbox’s clock last gen because microsoft failed to consistently develop good games in-house. it doesn’t matter how much money they spend if their business and creative culture produces poor games. microsoft has…

dude, have you condsidered that you might subconsciously be into BDSM and shame-play? you seem bizarrely fixated. I play From Software games because I like the game play and basically i think they’re cool. there’s no sexualized element to my enjoyment of the games. you wouldn’t accuse guys who like chess of secretly…

i’ll probably go with Sudafed. 

i’d like to think i have a pretty good, realistic perspective on video game graphics and yeah the bigger environments do look crazy bad. i wish there was ps2-grade fog hiding everything thirty feet out from view. but that said the towns and buildings look okay and the characters look... okay. but those mountains,…

technologically speaking PS1 is so far back in time that there can’t be any realistic expectation that its physical media should be supported. 

you can say that again.

imagine if your bosses kept you chained to a single franchise for 25 years, in a local corporate culture that resists jumping ship. you’d probably be making all kinds of crazy demands, running up the bill, etc. yeah kojima was difficult but also he was propping up that entire company. look at what happened when Pro…

because dum-dums need to be reminded that they’re throwing their money in a garbage fire.

dark souls has always been an always-online multiplayer experience. the exception is the switch version, which was tailored to not bug the player in offline mode. 

you’re being idealistic. 

not exactly—music is a form of artistic expression that, for the artist, brings enormous intellectual and emotional benefits. games can do that, but probably not as regularly as musicianship.

i’m sorry, but what the &*($ do you do with your brain power—are you a nuclear scientist at los alamos?

sekiro would arguably be one of the easier from software games to beat blindfolded, as the audio design is insanely rich and the combat is full of audio cues for parrying. 

gameboy advance had serious sam! sure it looked like shit, but it was official! 

i’m a two year owner of a ps4 pro, so i’m in no rush to get the ps5, but i do think you’re kind of overlooking how unappetizingly loud the base ps4 is—so for just a bit more money you could get a machine that can play almost the entire ps4 library without even breaking a sweat.

who wants to hear, let alone look at, these losers though? 

where is all that pokemon money going? certainly not into their game development. 

good god dude, dial it down a notch. the game is solid, just not a classic. hyperbole is difficult to take seriously.
