The real news is that they’ve bumped the price lol. Ridiculous. Man I wish y’all would start buying Xboxes so that Sony would stop with this nonsense so frequently.

Isn’t this tweet specifying (admittedly vaguely) “newer” titles? I expect a deep catalog to go live pretty quickly after it closes just like with Bethesda.

I’m glad they brought back factions (to a degree). For example US Army Rangers, Task Force 141, etc. have map-specific announcers. Sort of silly that the skins are so varied (what even is a faction where a US Army soldier, Nicki Minaj, and Spawn are your teammates?) but it will be nice to hear announcers and play maps…

Creative Assembly rocks, the way these big companies are forcing all their talented studios to discover the next holy grail in battle royale/extraction shooters (but really a GaaS money printer) without accounting for how rare it is for one of these games to take off and actually dethrone whichever one is currently…

I’m confused by the negative reviews from so many outlets. The most recent games have been criticized for their bloat, but a lot of the negative reviews I’ve seen have criticized Mirage for lacking features I’d associate with... bloat. I’ve definitely read about how uninteresting the story is, but I haven’t really…

I saw that rumor but is it confirmed she forgot or are people just extrapolating based on an exchange? Most people don’t want a jury trial if they think the judge will go easier on them. It’s also harder to draw out a jury trial a lot of the time.

Yeah I agree. The ball of yarn really does unravel in Starfield and you hit the edge of what the developers were able to achieve--whether due to tech/hardware limitations, time constraints to ship the game, or the reality of game dev--more often than you’d like.

I’d be less bothered by creeping mobilization (is that a pun?) of console/PC titles if the mobile would stop creeping into the console/PC releases too. Things like Call of Duty adding every character IP in pop culture history as a skin really destroys any aesthetic sensibility it might have once had. Diablo exposing…

You can really tell they’ve been working on this game for most of a decade because it plays like a design concept that’s as old as Fallout 4, if not older.

Todd seems to have a philosophy that we’re all too stupid for complexity and I hope that Baldur’s Gate 3 launching nearly simultaneously as a much more competent and engrossing RPG is a wakeup call for their team. Also Bethesda, hire some actual writers. Jason Schreier said on his podcast that he thinks Bethesda has…

Great review. My biggest concern going into Starfield is that they were trying to do too much with it. After spending a few weeks with it, I can confirm my concerns were validated. It’s a game that presents you with so many incredible ideas—maybe some of the most interesting and (more importantly, this being a game…

Company takes a talented studio that makes popular games and says “make us a Games-as-a-Service” cash cow revenue generator.”

Phil Spencer is our only hope.

Lighting candles and doing a weird ceremony I just made up to will Phil Spencer into reviving THPS 3+4 Remake after Activision canceled it and sent the development studio into the Diablo 4 polishing mines.

The hell are you talking about? The Russia stuff was directly based on what they are doing in Syria. America-centric brainrot applies to the left too sometimes.

Lmao you guys are so transparent. Save up your allowance buddy you’ll be able to afford a Series S with a 1tb SSD I promise <3

Sea of Thieves is a great product, and Microsoft let them do what they wanted. Get over it.

Buy an Xbox. You’ll be ok dude I promise.

This is the business equivalent of holding up a “fuck the troops no war for oil vote Kerry” sign in 2023. It’s no longer relevant dude. Microsoft is one of the better contemporary examples of a friendly employer (relative to its size and scope of business)

This is a weird way to type “shit, why did I buy a PS5 instead of the Xbox Series X?”
