when your country is known for ripping off other peoples idea, this is what an original thought looks like

This is my second favorite game this year behind Hades. Also, both are games that my fiance has encouraged me to keep playing because she loves watching them and enjoys the stories. I can’t wait to marry her.

When I read this review, it really shines a light on how much our personal gaming preferences influence our view of a game. The previous Yakuza games’ intense combat was always offputting to me and I just couldn’t play them for very long. But LaD is the very first Yakuza I’ll likely finish. The turn-based combat is…

If you ever wondered whether Live Service really is a poisoned term in gaming or is it really just us hardcore players that hate that stuff i.e. surely it means nothing to the general public, then I cant help but think this is a good example.

i wish there was a genre of science fiction that commented on and critiqued the encroaching corporatization of every day life... if only such a genre existed

“Nintendo doesn’t want tournament to use mods and pirated copies of their games”

Really weird to paint Nintendo negatively for, ya know, protecting their copyright and IP. They told the organizers to not use an emulator, mods, and pirated copies of the game. The organizers said no. The organizers decided to cancel the event instead of continuing with just Ultimate.

The only thing sadder than the sexual assault is my complete lack of surprise. You take these geeky, awkward kids who can’t get girls to notice them during their adolescence and suddenly give them a chip they can use in the attraction game and way too many of these dudes turn into complete monsters.

“Stop politicizing everything” is something you should tell China. They do that all the time.

When every week Chinese military planes encroach on Taiwanese airspace, and Hong Kong becomes more and more a foregone conclusion, it’s hard to take anything with a grain of salt, so the people here claiming “it’s just a game” and “America is just as bad” not only doesn’t ring true, but it’s also tantamount to…

This was already known since launch but few media outlets picked it up. You also missed the part where two popular Hololive VTuber’s names were censored in the game as well just because they had the audacity to mention Taiwan as a country when discussing their Youtube viewership stats. They were even suspended by…

See, Yoshida, no matter what you do there WILL still be people in America writing novels about dumb shit in your game’s first trailer.

Hype is still going to be pretty high right now for this game. People are trying to temper their expectations because the last several Final Fantasies have not been meeting the exceedingly high expectations set over a decade ago, or by SE’s marketing campaigns. That said, its still a recent announcement and people are…

Microsoft: Outside of Kinect, you can put literally any Xbox One game you own, plus most of the major Xbox 360 and a handful of classic Xbox favorites into the Xbox Series X and they’ll play. Oh, and your Xbox One controllers will work on Series X, no questions asked.

Way too many old PS4 games highlighted though. Several launch games and one being a remaster of a PS3 game.

Cheating in video games is pathetic, but cheating in a game like Fall Guys is bottom of the barrel. How much of a loser do you have to be to cheat in Fall Guys...

Its absolutely infuriating. Origin was, and should *mean* something in the same way BioWare, PopCap, Westwood and Visceral did until EA consumed them and stripped them of what made them special (at best).

So the game is free? Or do I have to pay $60 for the privilege of paying extra money to get the stuff that’s already in the game? 

Holy shit that actually sounds bonkers-amazing.

Because Epic is clearly in the wrong here? They have no legal case and they’ve used all sorts of scummy tactics in order to put pressure on Apple. This whole thing is one big PR stunt that exploits their naive Fortnite fan base. On top of that, they are quite possibly the most hypocritical company I’ve ever seen. I’m…
