I’ve gotten into arguments here before about that with GamePass. I find it a great value and I’ve played way more games than I would have otherwise. I’ve always just seen it as a Netflix for games. But then comparing it Netflix I’d always get the argument that they’re not the same things.

its not really guaranteed since most games for the last 4 or 5 years dint even contain all the game data on the disk anyway. Most contain only a little of the data on it and most of it has to be downloaded

I don’t know if you noticed this, but you can’t just put a game into a console and play anymore. Everything requires installation regardless of having a disc. The disc itself is just proof you bought it. It just tells whoever is delivering the content that you are authorized to download it. We went full digital a long…

Really? That’s it? You’re just out and going to never buy another new game or console again? Okay then.

I don’t think I’ve had a disc drive on my PCs for almost a decade now.

This feels like fake outrage because its Microsoft. Next.

The thing with preservation after the xb360 and ps3 is that most games are downloaded anyway. Once those authentication servers go down, most of the games aren’t on disc anyway; a lot of games cannot be played with the day one patch; etc. There are already existing issues for game preservation that aren’t being…

For big companies, you just know that everything can become public at any moment, and you preach that to your employees, so it is not surprising that a lot of this back and forth is mostly business with a couple of jokes.

Improved reparability and thumbsticks is a great change on the controller.

I’m less excited about the Xbox Series Slim than I am for that controller.

Au contrere mon frère! I LOVE the idea of a unique cryptid, which adds to the appeal and quest-like nature of getting this special Ursaluna. For ages, there have been myths about super-large and super aggressive bears in Alaska, and the native people associate different concepts to each. In more recent times, we have…

Far be it from me to let a corporation off the hook for a scummy business practice, it’s definitely shitty of them to squeeze another $30 for a problem they literally just invented and try to reverse-psychology us into thinking it’s a bonus.

Delete this article for making us visualize Elon and his romantic partners.

no way OW2 is rejuvenating a soul

I was onboard with 30xx as the first game mentioned, but then you had to drop OW2 into the mix? REJUVINATE THE SOUL?!??!?!?! OW2 is THE example of a good game gone bad, and even when it was more popular it was well known as the place you go to get flamed by your teammates. What a joke

Broom Boy seems like he’d be an argument for natural ability, given that he’s using Force telekinesis and keeping it secret. But he is also an excellent argument against bloody damn bloodlines, which are a disgusting way of establishing a source of ability.

I don’t mind the idea that Not Everyone Has The Ability, but…

Maybe this is because I never played No Man’s Sky, but I never expected there to NOT be barriers on the different worlds. I guess I was already used to the limits that we had on Mass Effect with the smaller planets.

There is a standard that Bethesda is held to that no one else is and that’s wild to me personally.
