It’s neat but I can’t say I disagree. Watch some CEO catch wind of something like this at a big publisher and shift all R&D into machine learning models so they can just auto-generate half the game and lay off half of their staff 

You don’t have to be a bigot to express a thought and have someone make a presumptuous accusation about your intent or motivations. I think we are in an era where differing opinions and discourse are highly discouraged. On Kotaku specifically, for example, sometimes “progressives” upvote snarky one liners that insult…

Wow I completely forgot how they hid the Chao Garden behind that requirement. You make a great point, I’m a bit late, just seeing this. I skimmed through, and that was my mistake. Understanding that this was the first game in the series, I completely understand. And end of the day, despite the simplicity of some…

Ehh I could see it being really something special. I mean, think about it:

Elderly Nathan Drake, swinging from cliff to cliff with his daughter when his shoulder pops out of place. Cassie whips out a smart phone and suddenly a Sully companion drone emerges from the sky. Powered by AI, the Sully companion drone groans…

Thats so funny, we said essentially the same thing, but you broke it down a bit better. Completely agree

Cole as an avid Sonic fan I’m excited to read this article. At the same time, Sonic Advance 2 was uniquely the point in the series where I remember specifically playing the game and thinking, wow..this is a shell of the games I grew up with. It has one of the best soundtracks ever, awesome level themes, characters…

I’m not so sure, one of the board of directors for the NYT is chief product officer for the Roblox Corporation. I doubt someone with such powerful connections to the dissemination of US political news is going to end up in the FTC’s crosshairs

Agreed, watched Game Awards with a moderately sized group of people yesterday, no one had any issue with his performance

Honestly just came to say that Pokémon reminded me of fygar from Dig Dug but yeah, evolution shmévolucion  

I really appreciate how dry this was, well said 😂

I do think Microsoft is doing more for consumers short term, but Sony’s commitment to the $70 game isn’t necessarily a bad thing for the industry. I understand that they are attempting to maximize profits, but it’s also clear to me that this is an effort the stave off the effect or toll that the subscription model…

(please remove, replied to wrong thread)

I have this theory that people are dropping off simply because they were confused by the subscription changes- and that it is just a symptom of a platform shift. I suspect it is a momentary lapse in subs, and that the # of users dropping off may even be higher but is being offset by the number of replacement…

I read a lot of his articles over the years, it’s really sad to see that he passed. His writing always carried a playful yet thought provoking nuance that made stuck with me. I had no idea he was this sick, he was always so optimistic. Thank you for sharing, may he rest in peace

As a Sonic fan I’m just going to throw this out there, but no, I don’t think most Sonic fans want Sonic Frontiers to look and play like this. Yeah... from what we’ve seen Frontiers looks empty, the open world does look bland. But the gameplay looks promising, it has ambition, it’s trying something new after 15 years…

Or "I HAVE THE HIGH GROUND" if you replace most of the letters and add a few 

I’m still thinking about the whole Parsec thing. They should just use Moonlight for PC with Nvidia Gamestream.

Yes, on the go-go, like a bus or airplane- it doesn’t really work out. But there are a lot of public wifi options these days. Even on data, you can set the bitrate to 10mbps- which is not all that significant if you have something like a T-Mobile unlimited data plan. Ultimately this was really a suggestion for those…

Here’s an idea. If you have an Nvidia GPU, grab one of those Xbox Games Pass Razer Kishis and download the Moonlight Game Streaming app from your respective app store on your smartphone. Install the Moonlight Internet Hosting tool on your desktop, then add mstsc.exe to your Nvidia GeForce Experience Shield settings and…

You know it’s going to be a great week when you find out that Sonic the Hedgehog is hanging out in an alt-right internet s***hole ruining peoples’ days
