Jason and Kirk, the saving graces of Kotaku. Save for the occasional feel-good posts by Fahey, you two are the biggest reason I still frequent kotaku for gaming-related news.

Glad I’m going with the HTC, maybe they’ll start rallying a sanders army to get him back in the spotlight.

That’s not how the law works, they aren’t “required”. Look at Sega for example: http://kotaku.com/sega-takes-shot-at-nintendo-encourages-fans-to-keep-ma-1786527246 Clearly, they are not at risk of loosing protection on their IP due to fan creation.

“kids” being the keyword. I don’t know anyone who owns an Xbox One who doesn’t have a Gold Account. After 7 years of it being the expected norm when owning an Xbox 360, Microsoft has made no attempt to make this any different with the One. Besides, if you really can’t fork out $9.95 for a month of Gold Service, you…

False, our founders, the puritans, came here from Europe because they were sick of all the kinky European sex. That’s why our country was founded by a bunch of prudes

This. Expectations are so low, and it’s not that I don’t want to believe. I WANT TO BELIEVE. It’s just.. so hard.. to trust.. augh!

Xbox One Elite Controller > Everything Else. I have converted so many people over to this fucker, it’s not even funny. Some of the most quintessential features are lost on the everyday person, but for someone like me who lives with their significant other, having the ability to mute the TV and plug a pair of regular…

Not every idea needs to be entirely new. I’m glad people continue to push the copyright and IP button for the sake of simply creating, the entire circumstance of trying to cease projects that would have otherwise been distributed at no cost is ridiculous. At some point society needs to just get over itself and…

@Kirk & Jason, when Destiny releases the Iron expansion at the end of the summer here, do you guys have plans to cover the game once more? Wouldn’t be a true experience without the both of you on the scoop.

Impressive I suppose, I’m from Maine so stuff like a downpour is child’s play when you’re stuck on the highway with 8" on the ground and the plows can’t even keep up fast enough with snowfall to keep a single lane clean. You see cars off the highway left and right but most of them are idiots who never take the time to…

Hey Mike, were there any kids actually there to enjoy that area at all? They seemed scarce in the pictures.. more like a bunch of awkward looking 30-somethings battling the urge to squeel like they were 7 again and ride the power wheels around in the bumper area, but afraid their boss might wander in and catch them in…

It’s a shame those new Exotics suffer from the same over-balancing problems all the others suffer from, and as a result are bland and unenjoyable.

For someone who is a diehard fan of Destiny and the FPSMMO Concept, it’s really despairing to say I’m probably not going to get back into destiny until the next major release takes place. They really need to figure out a better long-term game plan for endgame content, which is basically 99% of the game’s content. This…

My folks lucked out a few months before Xmas some guy was selling his snes with pretty much all the must haves so they did that as my epic Xmas present in 96, oh and the brick Gameboy. I never did ask how much it ended up costing them but they were lower class struggling parents working 2 jobs each so I doubt it was…

Nintendo finally can find a partnership with Square to make a character addition happen and Cloud is the first choice instead of Geno. Why in God’s name Cloud? At least we can say Snake had a Gamecube port and all the other 3rd party characters in Smash have seen a release on one Nintendo platform before, but FF7 has…

Yes blame journalism, because a handful of posts over the course of weeks overhypes a mission compared to the thousands upon thousands of reddit posts or forum posts happening every week that encourage this kind of hype. Bugie solely caused their own overhype when they refused to acknowledge that there was indeed no…

Actually 360 disks capped out at 8gb give or take about .9gb with optimization, don’t forget they were only dual-layer dvds and they didn’t cut out any audio tracks between the 360 and ps3 version, just were able to fine tune and tweak graphics and performance. Having said that, your point is still valid they do take…

You got it on the bullseye my friend, anyone who has put the 40+ for more than a few years and felt the same way at work can relate exactly. Not all work environments are the same, and when you know you, or what you bring to the table at work, is the biggest money earner and all you get is crapped on, it’s incredibly…

The “Thomas Covenant” and “The Gap” series are both no-brainer series by Stephen R Donaldson that would literally give the Tolkien and Potter filmed franchises a run for their money.

Hey Kirk, I know this might seem pretty retarded but of all the Kotaku writers, you seem to pop up and actually bring some mildly interesting stories to the day. Granted they might not all be game-related but worth the chuckle or insight none-the-less. Keep it up man.
