Meanwhile...I had ZERO issues with middling Wi-fi.

Just throwing it out there: they account for about 8% of the sales.

Far be it from me to throw shade as an American, but I do find it fascinating how casually Japanese exceptionalism gets toted out for this kind of thing. Plenty of people in plenty of places believe the world should adapt to them instead of the reverse, but Japanese people seem unusually comfortable stating such in…

But please, explain to me why his presence is so important to your business model.

As a side note, I’ve seen WAAAAY too many card shops close because they decided to allow toxic players to stick around. “But they’re here every day, and I can’t get rid of a loyal customer like that!” Yeah, but how much money does the guy spend on Magic cards while he’s squatting in the corner for six hours? In the…

Company: “We don’t hate the gays!”

I have never had a good experience with this game that wasn’t immediately tempered by someone being an asshole.  I gave it up, but I’m not built for a PvP-based game.  I could not stand losing hours worth of work to someone who had obviously been playing longer than me because ‘pirate game’.

Play has no limits.*

Question. Why do people automatically assume that a critical statement against “their” brand/party/opinion is support for “their” opposition? And then proceed to vomit whataboutism’s all over the internet.

And so begins the traditional clarification of Sony presentation lies.

This seems like kind of a genius stroke on the part of the army and navy. Their ranks thrive on christian nationalism, and christian nationalists will eat this controversy up. Yeah they’ll pay lip service to saying this stuff is bad, the streamers may be shuffled around so it looks like punishment, but it bolsters…

Intellectually stunted aggro white supremacists and murder junkies in the US military?!?? Next you’ll be telling me cops are like that, too...

That’s true, but - this is a game review of a flight simulator, and there’s not a single word about whether or not it’s fun to fly planes in it. No details on the quality or depth of the simulation aspects. No information about the accessibility of the sim for newcomers. Nothing really at all about the act of actually…

And now the “correction” renders a lot of the article incoherent. This would be something my journalism professor back in college would have sent back wholesale and request I start from scratch.

Hmm. Delicious 2020 piece. You choose the worst hill to die on about very valid arguments against a frightening and sobering future while said future is basically being used at their best possible reason for existence.

Will,

Amazing how deep dives into MS and its “intentions” on a game review seemingly always creep in but these same games journalists fawn over everything Japanese hyper-capitalists do like anti-consumer Nintendo just did with a bogus limited timed release on a physical/digital game of a lazy upscale.

The author even LIES…

This is the kind of rant someone goes on when they're really high.

What a strange, strange review.
