Without sounding like a millennial with a lawn complex (fat chance), from years of experience, this is not the impending apocalypse zoomers...

I recently started watching the UK show simply because I missed the American one, and it’s not nearly as good. 

I know it’s common for people to like original (UK shows) better than the American remakes, but the American Ghosts is so so fun. The ghosts are way funnier. 

That’s all fine, as long as you don’t claim that quality is the reason why you aren’t interested in said games. Quality is something can be measured by aggregate review scores. Personal taste is entirely different. If you aren’t interested in a particular genre, setting, theme, style, etc, just say that instead of…

You suggested that MS’ first-party games aren’t interesting because of their quality. I provided aggregate scores from OpenCritic to show that most critics considered most of those games to be good (i.e. 80%+ scores).

Okay. Not sure what you want me to tell you? The aggregate scores for those games are good. If you have no interest in good games, that’s more an issue with you and less an issue with MS’ output.

There’s a pretty wide variety of genres, settings and styles in this list. If you didn’t find any of them interesting, I’m guessing you have pretty specific tastes.

Nothing about this needed to be formatted into a slideshow to more effectively communicate the information. 

My father worked as a machinist from the 70's to the 00's, wasn’t union, and was very well paid with great benefits and a pension. The difference was we still had effective government regulation of industry and labor in the US. That’s been eroded away after decades of calls for deregulation. So no, unions aren’t the…

First game I ever played on the PS4 (which was a reward to myself for a critical life milestone that seemed more and more hopeless...)

What a bizarre article that communicates zero meaningful info for any sort of conversation. Brand tribalism is the absolute worst, and those slides stuck out a lot more than the sarcastic ones. Why dont you analyze the actual number of exclusives? the number is closer than you think. Why not analize best battery…

Why does the monthly payment matter? Shouldn’t the only price that really matters is the price out the door?

It didnt for minecraft in fact they released new versions of the game for newer consoles and two new titles in the franchise on playstation 4/5. They released Ori on switch along with the bards take remaster. Microsoft is a business and they look at the potential profits available and prioritize the most value for…

The problem with claims of “consolidation” is that the fundamental premise rests on the idea that there are only—and will ever be only—a static number of players in the games industry, with no new entrants ever to come.

Actually, the opposite is true. If this deal gets blocked, there will be no competition for Sony and they will continue to dominate the console market for the foreseeable future. They already hold a sizable lead, they already engage in shady practices to keep games off other platforms, and they already overcharge for…

Oh give it a rest, dude. This is VIDEO GAMES, not the fucking water supply.

You mean the present day business practices where they are by a wide margin the most pro consumer console manufacturer, and have been for nearly a decade?

“It’s not because Sony paid us, definitely not that.  They’re definitely not doing what they’re trying to argue Microsoft would do with Activision games, definitely completely unrelated and not hypocritical.”

This isn’t shilling for them, this is pointing out that Sony is pulling out a bunch of paranoid “But they could do this!” complaints instead of anything actually meaningful.  Sony is looking desperate because all of their complaints are being met by Microsoft willing to compromise.  Calling one company out on bullshit…

Sony is insufferable. They lead Xbox in marketshare 2:1 or better in almost every market except the US. Hell, it’s more than 95:5 in Japan. They’re just being pissy about a game that has already been guaranteed to be on their platform for more than a decade into the future. All this does is make them look weak,…
