You can feel the sexual tension

I think its more that Sony knows that if they did this, they’d do something stupid like require proprietary memory cards/m2 drives that are hilariously overpriced.

Eh, they might owe Studio Ghibli more for that one.  It’s basically Totoro with an Electabuzz paintjob, right?

Castlevania is not a Capcom franchise.

I think you skipped the chart in this article that shows the top 10 best selling games of 2023 in Japan.

Depends what it does I suppose. I have tons of Gamesharks and genies in my collection. So what this article left out is it’s supposed to run on tandem with AI shark controller.

Gonna get the mailroom guy to record 12,000 lines? Because it wasn’t just those 8 lines, they surely started with every single line recorded by text to speech and then replaced by the final audio as it was recorded.

It’s genuinely bad, and it baffles me that this even remotely controversial for some people.

It was a poor choice to only allow limited number of media and “content creators” to comment in the first place. If you’re going to let people talk about a part of your closed alpha, let people talk about it.

It’s not about sitting for 6+ hours at a time with the battery. I can leave my Xbox Elite Series 2 out for 4-6 days and not have to worry about charging the dang thing.

I’m really surprised that their PR team thought it would be a good idea to argue with people on the internet.

Yeah, I love GOTY editions.  I mostly play single player games, and I don’t care about discussing “the new hotness,” so it’s real easy for me to wait.  I can get all the DLC together, all the updates to make them run smoothly, and I’ll wait till the whole thing is at least 50% on Steam.  I get the most game for the…

I often see higher-skill players saying things like “I don’t want all my matches to be sweaty matches.” But at the same time, this is a choice lower-skill players often don’t even have - if you’re in the bottom 10% or whatever, every match is going to be hard fought because there simply aren’t “easy” matches for you…

Curt Schilling would have liked it if you could.

Your question touches on some important aspects of labor law and union-employer relations. Let’s break down the key points to understand the potential legal issues involved:
