So what?

PS3...a system that was discontinued five years ago, and no one’s telling you to pirate shit.

It’s just an asset to speculate on. See also: stonks, Pokémon cards, tulip bulbs. As someone else pointed out, it’s not about buying the art; it’s about buying a receipt, and hoping the receipt’ll increase in value (which it probably won’t).

For what it’s worth, the overwhelming majority of people who are interested in Metroid Dread will perfectly and legitimately buy a proper copy. Hell, I’d even wager the majority of players running this thing have a perfect legit copy sitting on a collector’s shelf or something.

I find the statement centering around that part - ‘people only remember the best games rather than the OK games’ - kind of fascinating, because to me, it represents the fundamental flaw in the whole approach: it assumes everyone agrees on what the ‘best games’ are. Which means that, with Sony, if you don’t like their…

Please shut up with this pearl-clutching nonsense. Minors are a small part of Twitch’s demographic, if you ever bothered to fact check this talking point. Additionally, making lewd or sexual content is as much selling your body as any job ever is. Get over your hangups, lewd Twitch streamers are still operating within…

This looks like it would fit well in your gaming studio apartment after your gaming wife kicks you out of the gaming house and you sit alone in the dark with your gaming thoughts.

Also, the last thing I read about MassMutual’s fine said it was a failure to supervise a bunch of their staff, not just Gill. The initial reports were worded to make it sound like he was the reason for the fine. He was just the most notable member of the group.

Well, he certainly got his wish. SEC Chair Gary Gensler recently announced that the agency is very close to publishing its post-mortem on the “gamifying” of the stock market, though apparently not before it talks to a few more key players like Burry.

I’d be amazed if they removed anything offensive for that reason alone. Deliberate offence and edgy humour have been the series’ stock-in-trade since the first one. They were never not offensive. I can’t tell if they’ve become less clever about it or if I’ve become less interested in it, but either way I have little…

I really liked Heavy Rain, having been trained on the Shenmue games. 

Nice try Walker, the game will focus not on RACISM IS BAD but in fact SLAVERY IS BAD in a clumsy attempt to address that feature of star wars canon. It will also linger much more on ALLISON, who will not be black but a slightly above average looking white woman with slightly boyish features [this is the special…

This EV won’t work for me because the commute to my job is 20 miles each way and once I get there they don’t give me enough money to buy this car.

The first time I ever played SMB was the Vs. Arcade version at Any Time Pizza in East Detroit (now Eastpointe), Michigan sometime around 1986-87. I was around kindergarten age. I miss those days when random stores would have random arcade games just hanging around. And now I feel old.

Remember When Subaru produced this gem of a concept, but then said “lets make the story of the ugly duckling, but Benjamin button it”?

Holy fucker of fucks this angle makes it look extra awkward.

In a world of Raptor R and TRX competitors, this is decidedly and inexplicably lame sauce.

It’s hard to imagine anyone disagreeing with what you just said, but if the last few comments sections are any indication, someone will. Some people think that the rights of giant multinational corporations are more important than the rights of consumers, despite (presumably) being consumers themselves. Kind of funny,…

If we can't trust Nintendo to do the right thing with their IPs, then we need to change the law so they don't feel obliged to do the wrong thing. Roll back to pre-Mickey Mouse law copyright law, have everything enter public domain after 25 years, and let people make whatever cool shit they want to about 30 year old…
