I could understand someone not liking the Last Jedi, but the only person who uses it as a “go-to bad movie” is an obvious troll.

Sooo...is this really that subversive (to use the word everyone keeps negatively using)? Joel dying should be obvious. The knock on them there is that it is so obvious that they apparently had to edit marketing materials to make it look like he’s alive longer? Switching to Abby might be kinda hokey (oh look, now you…

Rise of Skywalker, maybe. TLJ at least had some redeeming qualities.

the videogame equivalent of The Last Jedi

Can’t say I disagree from that perspective. It will never not look strange though. One of those bad boys could pop up on the next article that shreds them :D

I know it’s out of the hands of the writers and probably even the editor but it’s really weird to see a big ol G2A ad on a site that has, repeatedly and rightly, highlighted their shady business practices and advised people to avoid them.....

Wouldn’t be entirely surprised if it was mostly that Japan doesn’t see the XBox as being important to their home market.

Well, that's certainly not my list. Agree to disagree. 

lol this list is SOOOO fucked up in its priorities. odyssey and origins need to be at the worse end of the list. and wasnt freedom cry a dlc and not an entire game, yet it gets its own entry? and how is Rogue better than brotherhood?!

The controls are generally better except parkour should be mapped back to the shoulder buttons. It makes way more sense to be able to control the camera and parkour at the same time

I loved when the game had more emphasis on counters. Stringing together a bunch of kills was always fun in Brotherhood. 

Maybe not entirely -- it sounds like they’re moving away from the loot system, which will be a huge improvement on its own.

Ugh. Here it comes. You held out for so long, Kotaku. There’s only been, like, one slideshow post that I can think of.

This is the first and last time I’m engaging with one. Get out of here, Spanfeller.

Your list sucks. Unity is by far a better game than people give it credit for. I played it after they corrected all the bugs and enjoyed it so much it got me back into the franchise. It was the last game that truly felt like the original games in the series. Origins and Odyssey are fine games, but they don’t feel like…

Origins and Odyssey are massive downgrades from syndicate, which is a downgrade of Unity. Unity had a parkour and social stealth system that absolutely SHITS on the latest games.

Was there one other than Dragon’s Crown? Muramasa and Odin’s Sphere did not have huge breasts either.

I would probably put Black Flag as my number 1..

Origins and Odyssey are amazing RPGs, but bad Assassin’s Creed games. The first time I perched on top of a base and studied the enemy patrols for my ideal take-down route, and dropped down on the first guy.....only to have him take like half damage or whatever, and alert the entire base, I knew this was no longer…

Vanillaware is one of the few developers where all I need to know is that they made it and I’m going to buy it.

As funny as this meme is, most of the time presenters are dusted with powder makeup to remove natural skin oil shine. If they recorded at home, which is likely, they probably didn’t have the necessary makeup artist on-site to prep them for the recording, so they end up looking shiny.  We all look shiny, we just have…
