Is it as cool as saying, “woke”?

I’m a pretty Liberal long-long-long time reader of Kotaku and usually defend the hell out of this kind of article, but this one did seem to be taking things way too seriously. Just the last line reading, “For myself, though, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of relief” made me roll my eyes. This is probably the first…

Gran Turismo was and is one of the best selling games for the Playstation consoles. They’re far, far from “niche” games.

The gold edition is complete with all DLC, outfits, etc.

No, they really did get rid of them. It’s for real. It’s a damn good game (something I would never admit if they were still sneaking loot boxes or some variation in).

Definitely. The game is considerably better than the first, which was pretty fun in its own right. But the loot boxes and marketplace being shoved in your face, etc. etc. wrecked it for me. Playing it today for the first time in forever and it’s like a new game. The way they pushed stuff on you was really intrusive…

I prefer Jif by a large margin. But I prefer Jif Natural, which may indicate my Liberalness. Cuz I’m a Liberal, mother-fucker!

I just got Spotify premium for 3 months for .99 cents. I love it. Much better than Prime Music (which I had on the same .99 cent trial that is offered above) and there hasn’t been a single album or song I haven’t been able to find on there — plus it streams to my receiver, which Prime Music won’t do for some reason.

Rise of the Tomb Raider has what I consider the most balanced, perfect combat system in any game from any franchise that’s in this third-person style. Have you mastered the head shots? Did you primarily use the bow and arrows? I thought it was amazing. Your criticisms are much more valid if you’re referring only to…

I somehow missed this when it went up. I was refreshing Mike’s Kinja page (which I bookmarked after noticing he hadn’t posted in nearly a month) as per usual and finally decided to click on the link to his Twitter. I saw the news there, straight from the man himself. Oh my god, it feels like this happened to a good…

I overly fucking jizzed for this.

The second Pixar announced a game about day of the dead, before it even had a title, I was hoping, praying, they either directly sourced or borrowed liberally from Grim Fandango. Instead, as you said, we got Coco. Oddly, I just watched it for the first time this morning in a bout of insomnia and while I gave up…

Last year they showed Metroid Prime, but it was totally missing from this year’s presentation. The Switch may easily go down as the most disappointing console, game-wise, Nintendo has ever released. It doesn’t look like it will come within spitting distance of the library the Wii U had and that wasn’t exactly a…

Even audience surrogate Jim resonates differently in our current climate.

Edit: Fixed it.

There’s no way you can tell me, in all honesty, that main picture isn’t a spoiler. Let’s talk about not having “Let’s talk about” articles on a story-based game five days after its release.

Any chance you’ll write an article on that new Bioshock? Felt a bit like you were burying the headline. Then again, I’m a huge fan of the first two Bioshock games (would be of the third as well, if it didn’t draw a crazy false equivalency between people keeping slaves and the slaves rising up against the people who…

Video is cool, but there’s no LABO.

Fucking weird. I knew something vital was missing from Kotaku and couldn’t quite place it. To stay on topic, am I right that if even watching a video of people putting together the cardboard junk in this game gives you a literal panic attack, this game isn’t for you, right?

May as well ask, “Do you own a PS4 this weekend?”
