Tech prices always go down after first adopters blow fortunes. A 26” flatscreen was $1200 in 2006.

Is that 1980s EA experimenting with ways to screw people?

Yet so many legit developers can’t escape Apple’s censors.

No wonder Japanese developers are struggling. The tastes of their local market are completely unaligned with the rest of the world.

Overwatch and The Division are the two games I’m hyped for in 2016.

While I’m not condoning piracy, we have to admit that we all have benefited from it one way or another, iTunes was the answer to piracy in the music industry, so you got those 99¢ songs thanks to people going crazy on Napster.

Welcome to the world of hardware porn.

I don’t know if it’s a spoiler, but the aftermath of the climax at the fortress drags the story far longer than you expect.

What are the stakes of a regular pro sports team losing? Lots of angry fans on talk radio demanding to bench a player or fire the coach.

It’s Activision we’re talking here. They will use their IPs. Since Call of Duty is a joke as competitive game goes, and even the most rabid Destiny fans say their PvP is also a joke, I assume Hearthstone and Overwatch will be their main events.

Guess who doesn’t have to pay a fee to play with a crappy online service?

Soundless Mounts.

It’s still money for Microsoft. Unless you still have Windows 7, which means M$ hasn’t seen money for you in a while.

Kojima and Del Toro in the same room?
