Why the hell aren’t they just using a variant of the FF14 Carbuncle design?

Hey that looks cool, I bet they could make an anime out of that! Quick, somebody call Sayo Yamamoto!

Nice.

There’s a reason he was the Dorito Pope - apparently he’s reliable, really easy to work with, gets along with everyone, and is always happy to help out a brand in need of some ad space. That kind of attitude gets you far in the video game industry.

That was the best VGA performance to date period, because Mick Gordon is always a win. But we get stuff like Green Day way too often, for no reason whatsoever, when the scope of video game music that could have been used is so vast. Why not, I dunno, 65daysofstatic, or Darren Korb, or Danny Baranowsky? At least…

That’s absolutely why she was drawn that way, it’s sort of a more realistic pose - it’s just weird because 2B never does it.

That first 2B pic seemed really off somehow, for some reason... until I realized she’s drawn bending at the knees. 2B always stands straight, certainly in all of her key art at least.

Well, let’s ignore for now that this is exactly the kind of behavior that antitrust laws were invented to fight, back in the day before America became the poster boy for regulatory capture. Practically speaking, if you’re OK with installing Windows with a local instead of online login (which can still be finagled even…

No disrespect, but are we going to have an article every time a games journalist realizes they’re playing a game expressly designed to psychologically condition them into this exact thing? I feel at this rate it will take forever to move the discourse in a useful direction.

Thank you. I opened this article expecting that at least since it’s a guy this time we might at least potentially dismiss the entire fashion critique thing for the bullshit that it is. But no, finally gender equality is achieved and both men and women share the privilege of getting shit on online for not wearing…

Hot take: enemies in 2D games that hurt you when you run into them are an outdated design trope that needs to go the way of level passwords.

Didn’t Rios explicitly title-drop The Tragic Sense of Life in his talk with Picard?

For rage you want to go to Star Wars comments sections. This is closer to irritation.

I always figured that Trek’s “no money” thing was some bullshit.

I’ve always felt it extremely constraining that they force you to rush-unlock things if you wanted whatever unique thing they added in the event.

Over. They’re not going to invest the amount of money, manpower and time it would take to actually turn Anthem around, but outright admitting they failed with the game is something they’re simply unable to do, regardless of how much money barely keeping it alive might be sucking up.

I assume this piece is a passive-aggressive response to a continuing stream of articles on The Root that in fact invite white people to the cookout for any and everything? Talk to your colleagues Damon, you guys don’t need to hash this out in public :-)

Every category is an American category when you’re racist.

The original Xbox for some reason (or a confluence of reasons I guess) never caught on in the emulation scene. I’m sure it will happen sooner or later, but usually a capable programmer would need to really want to play a particular Xbox exclusive on PC, and that feels like it’s not happening any time soon. Only then…

I feel like Limbaugh should be Immortan Joe in that metaphor. He’s the one who (along with Ailes) built the house that Trump is living in.
