That’s not even a dig against kotaku or other gaming sites, people like OP honestly dont realize that these of us who pay attention to gaming news and such make up like, a *fraction* of the gaming audience. The overwhelming majority of people who played games just like...see ‘The New Thing' on a walmart shelf and get…

And McDonalds had the best selling burger.

Honestly I feel like Indiana Jones could survive (and maybe even benefit from) some detachment from Ford. It's a tough casting but not impossible, and instead of forcing an old disgruntled man into mild action there's plenty of room for new adventures. They pretty much already did it with Young Indiana Jones. No…

Yeah, you are immensely overestimating the influence this site would have had on sales in general. The average person isn’t paying the slightest attention to news sites (or blogs, in this case) or JKR in general, and the Harry Potter universe already had a massive fan base. I don’t believe Kotaku would have swung the…

Don’t be a cunt, Doc.

The game was Arkham reskinned for Harry Potter, and the world-building in particular was breathtaking. As for J.K. Rowling, she is a piece of shit. Can’t deny that the woman created one of the best-selling franchises of all times though. I look at it like Michael Jackson, an even bigger piece of shit, but damn he made…

He’s not wrong.

A socially inept weirdo who lives vicariously though fictitious relationships they’ve concocted in their heads, usually in the form of bad fan art and poorly written fan fiction, some going so far as to insist their head canon is real.

No.  This is not the topic to try to go “but on the other hand”.  THERE IS NO OTHER HAND.  The toxicity needs to stop, end of conversation.

I never got into the original tomb raider games after getting a demo cd from a gaming magazine.  I couldn’t differentiate the ledges and blocks I could jump on from the background as they all looked the same.  

“But, as far as the story goes, it’s a little too soon for me”

“This might be a hot take, but I don’t want Persona to devolve into a dating simulator.”

Zionism Simulator: Remastered

I’m sure these are both wonderful games that millions of people justifiably love, but The Last of Us fall firmly into my “Absolutely not” category of stories that I don’t need to bring into my headspace.

Jax X: Combat Racing for the PS2 was the last non-Uncharted or The Last of Us game that Naughty Dog made. 

That red “A” she wore was clearly for “Advanced”.

What TV needs is to deal more with insignificance and oblivion
