Never compare what you know in your small circle to the rest of the world.

I ain’t gonna lie, I miss PlayStation Home.

I know, I’m probably the only one.

Man does the writing room for DWD just sound insufferable.  

Just a reminder that the best way to experience Diablo IV is to delete your Battle.net account and then never talk about Blizzard again!

I actually had the opposite reaction, where I found the gameplay engaging (though not ground breaking) while I found the story very contrived. I was very burnt out on ‘dad stories’ by this point, in both games and film, and while the story was well told it was something I had seen multiple times by that point.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. The Last of Us, as a game, was very mediocre. Kind of janky, sometimes thrilling, a lot of times just frustrating. Case in point: The game forcing you to use a controller (since I played on a PS4) to accurately shoot zombies while hanging upside-down. Theoretically, a tense…

Kudos to the organizers to have the balls to let their creators describe their thoughts without muzzeling them on behalf of their sponsors.

Yeah, you keep thinking that - in a few decades, though, I think you’ll find yourself embarrassed by having thought so. In the meantime, if you want to invoke Carlin and the “essence of being a comedian,” though, even Carlin disagreed with punching down the way Chappelle is. The essence of comedy isn’t unfettered…

Dont complain the day all games are digital and stay 60 dollars for years on end. And services like gamepass costing hundreds of dollars a year 

Disks are not only ridiculously easy to protect but this is coming in a STEELcase. 

BluRays are also nearly bulletproof when directly compared to any optical disk format that came before them.

> Companies don’t want to sell games. They want to rent them to us until they can sell us the remaster. And 20 years later the ‘Classic’ bundle with added microtransactions.

This drives me crazy. I really only buy physical for my collection and I often get PS4/5 games where the disc is bouncing around inside the case.

This comment blows my mind, honestly. I know I’m not the norm, but I can’t remember the last time I didn’t put a disc or cart in my console. Having to redownload/install games is awful and I hate it (and I’m still affected by it with discs).

This is absolutely ridiculous. Give me a voucher to buy the physical disc version if you don’t want to include it in the package. Honestly...what kind of crazy idiot “collects” collector editions without a disc? You’ve collected nothing. Would the same type of person buy vinyl that comes with an empty vinyl slip case…

Sure, if you wait long enough you could probably get a secondhand disc fairly cheap but it’s a slap in the face to not include them considering how much these special editions cost.

This is incredibly stupid and almost certainly a result of there being two different versions of PS5. They have to include the code for…

While the steelbook is a nice item to have, it almost comes across as insulting for those wanting a disc. “Oh, you wanted a physical copy of the game for your hundreds of dollars? Too bad... but here’s a case to put one in, if you had one! *evil laugh*”

It is true. This steelbook has no disc.

Right now I think Kotaku is very much dug into their trenches in what they call a culture war and, weirdly enough, they chose to back the side with the giant corporation that defends predatory monetization and actual sexual abusers.

She has great reach absolutely, not all transphobes are boomers, but it’d be faster to list the boomers that aren’t transphobes. We’re witnessing the dying gasp of the “me me me” generation, as older people fight against a world that’s changing when they’ve enjoyed the last forty years of getting what they want all…

I’m not arguing that she’s not a bad or damaging person. She absolutely is and is part of a huge wave of shocking anti-trans sentiment.
