I am pleased to say I was able to find it on Spotify, so I’m thinking it’s time for a nice hit of nostalgia.

When I was younger and diskmen were still a popular thing (yes, I’m dating myself here) I had a Simpsons CD called “Songs in the Key of Springfield” that had most of these on it. When it was cool to be listening to Nirvana or RATM, Korn, etc. This was certainly one of my guilty pleasures.

Nice straw man, but that’s not what I said at all. What I’m saying is perhaps a decent editor would have said “hey, our official review called the game a “colossal mess” maybe either not calling the game “fantastic” in your headline, or explaining why your own opinion differs wouldn’t be a bad idea.”

Not sure about you, but I’m less inclined to put any stock in the opinion of writers on a website that can’t seem to agree whether a product is “fantastic” or a “colossal mess.”

Ryzen 7, RTX 4080.

Yeah, I’ve tried this game on two separate PC’s and it’s damn near unplayable on both. On my main PC, I get 15-20 second hangs that completely disconnect me from any multiplayer session I’m playing.

I know this was done by different writers but maybe some editorial direction would help this site maintain some kind of tonal consistency and credibility?

Yeah, sorry, this is just kindof a dumb take. If I want a review of a game and want to know if it has technical issues, do I have to sit through a paragraph of hand-wringing over Kotaku’s technical issues as well?

I’m assuming you run two different PCs? Otherwise I am very confused how you run a RTX 3060 and 3070 simultaneously?  Is that some sort of SLI Frankebeast?  Can you even SLI 30 series cards?

Sometimes it’s robots instead of giant bugs.

I think this is just further proof that this site has very little knowledge of VR gaming and doesn’t care to learn. It just annoys me that it is spreading falsehoods about VR at this point. You are not going to be playing “the hottest VR capable games” with an AVP because it does not have an effective input device for…

How does one play a Quest title like Resident Evil 4 VR on an AVP?

I tried to say exactly this a while ago when the new movie was announced and I got dragged through the comment section. Apparently saying anything negative at all about Rey Skywalker is an affront in the long running culture war...

The internet and social media happened. That’s what happened.

No. See, I’m a gamer. I’m an adult with a mortgage, a wife, children, a career, and in my limited spare time I like to play and read about videogames. I do not hate women or threaten them and their families over their portrayal of fictional characters.

Spec Ops: The line is still considered a masterpiece of narrative design in a FPS 14 years after it’s release. I think calling it a “forgotten 14 year old game” is, at best, reductive, and more likely, completely false.

Where is the game footage? All I can see on this article is a screenshot and a twitter video with a spinning logo. Would it be too much to actually post some game footage?

Probably.

I wonder if this reporter would be so smug if she knew this 13 year old boy had recently lost his father?
