To me, Bond will always have black hair!

Absolutely. The Souls games nail the combat in a way that is completely seamless to the player, but incredibly hard for a lot of developers to replicate.

Newsflash: You don’t put the mic battery over your crotch.

I think my parents recognized my overall passion for games from a young age. I was already coming up with (admittedly quite terrible) game designs as early as 5 years old. By the time I was 10 — when parents might start worrying about the lasting impact of a gaming-focused lifestyle — I was telling them about game…

Maybe the deal can also include a perpetual license for Konami to use the now-Sony properties in their pachinko games?

I think here you’re confusing story with gameplay elements. The gameplay of the first half of RE7 was great: A return to the non-linear, puzzle-solving nature of the older games.

That doesn’t really explain why Sakaguchi is willing to put his games on literally any gaming device other than Sony.

Or hold office parties, or hold Office parties.

Sure, but they’re still charging full price for a remaster. Who else does that, ever?

don’t start acting like the other side.

If this is true, then why is Xbox emulation so darned difficult?

Still, it makes you wonder what might have happened if Nintendo had decided to take Microsoft up on the acquisition offer.

I know for a fact that the Windwaker Speedrunning community allows for modded copies of the game that guarantees a random event happens.

Why not both? Give a review number for “as-is,” and then another number “if this were a bug-free game, It’d be worth x/xx.” It is stupidly ridiculous to inflate or deflate numbers solely to affect what shows up on Metacritic.

You know, if critics started giving lower scores to buggy games, then developers would stop releasing games that are so buggy, yeah?

Maybe both of those things are problematic?

Honestly, I’d appreciate that take more from someone who loved the original FFVII, since the two titles are really so different.

“Hey, wanna play Monopoly?”

Insomniac generally releases fairly big titles every two years. So after Ratchet & Clank next year, it’s fair to expect another Insomniac title in 2023. Now, 2022 might be a little light. But that may also be why they’ve shored up titles like Final Fantasy XV. Sony also owns the Bloodborne franchise, so even if From…

What I mean is getting a deal for three months means very little in the long run for a service you will be paying for for the rest of your life ($15/mo*30 years = $5400. Two free months = 0.5% discount. And that’s assuming the price never increases.)
