That’s a lot of bullshit—I’ve mentioned before how digital sales has resulted in a lot of increase in profit for games. But besides that, NBA 2K20 was the one that has literal casino games in it for spending real money on loot. There’s no way to justify an increase in price except that they can do it because they want…

Sounds to be expected. Making this for PSVR is a bad idea, it just doesn’t have a good VR system, the tracking is very very bad.

That, and they just want more money.

For people that have bought one of these EA games on Steam, does it require launching Origin to play them? I got Jedi: Fallen Order through Steam and it does that, it’s basically purchasing through Steam but still downloading and running the game through Origin. And most of those games rely on Origin for online…

I used to work as a cashier and I tried the pen on the store add paper and it gave the same result as real cash, the pen is useless.

And he doesn’t really seem to do much at all. What success is he actually responsible for? Most of their profit is from established series that don’t need his input at all to keep running. Other than that, Activision takes few risks with developing ideas.

The reason why this happens—the camera system needs to see details and features to be able to calculate points in 3D space, a big solid colored surface doesn’t have all that many features to detect and so it can’t put together enough 3D points to tell that there’s an object there. That’s why multiple types of sensor…

There’s probably a big day 1 patch that will have to be downloaded anyway

Ass Parents

It was not expressed very well in the show, but the whole deal with Renfri was that she couldn’t actually do anything to get at the mage Stregebor, he was protected in his tower and he could stay there for the rest of his life if he wanted. So for her to actually get at him she would need to threaten/kill other people…

Here’s something that’s really weird, Burger King ran an add in Germany where they had a restaurant with all of the items renamed as Rise of Skywalker spoilers. Of course, you’d think they made stuff up for the trailer, they’re all things that have been rumored online. However, they’re all true. What is up with that?…

What, do you work at a publisher? Using the term remaster is just marketing for the most part to make people feel like they’re getting some special release, if they really wanted to say what they’re doing, they’d just say “Hey, we’re bringing this game to this console” because that’s all they’re doing, they’re not…

It’s fine if they re-release games on current consoles, it’s just that using the term Remaster sounds like they’re doing more than they are, all they’re doing is re-releasing it, it’s a minimal amount of work to get it working.

A remaster of a movie isn’t the same thing, they have to do a lot more to improve the quality.

I really feel like they can’t call this kind of thing a remaster, all they’re doing is putting it on the newer console and having it run at the resolution the console is capable of, they’re not putting any extra work into making the game look better. Sure there’s some work involved in porting it over just to make it…

Not really that surprising though, the reason he’s in the game is the same reason they’d show it in this commercial.

That really shows that they don’t understand who their audience is

That’s one of the reasons I think Xbox can do this better—I would imagine in the future their subscription will give you access to a lot of games that you can download and play to Xbox/PC and then if you’re on the go you can stream them. They have a larger existing library, plus original games, plus they have an…

Hopefully they’ve hired some UI/UX designers

It’s worse than that actually, because to get it it costs $130 (you can’t do the premium $10 plan yet or the free subscription) And the only devices that can use it are Chrome browser on computers, Pixel 3 (the only mobile device) and Chromecast
