Yeah the takeaway from this is NOT that single player games are in trouble. There were lots of other potential reasons (aside from quality) why this failed:

I mean, I think the game didn’t do to well because it looked boring as hell and EA didn’t go that hard with promoting it. 

Sure because perpetual violators always follow the law.

I know that mankind divided had a lot of flaws - it’s fairly short length and abrupt ending among them, but it did a LOT right. It’s world building was so well fleshed out. It was nice to explore smaller but more sense, “Yakuza” like world by a western developer, especially since embracing foot travel kept it from…

Sure.

More like the Fifth Circus, am I right?

I’ll bet my paycheck it was filed in Amarillo so that it is guaranteed to land on the desk of Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk. Yes the guy who says migrants must remain in Mexico, reinstated a naval sailor who refused to mask up on his submarine essentially taking the powers of commander in chief from the President, suspended…

As soon as I saw the headline I thought, “I’ll bet it’s the Fifth Circuit again.” They’ll hold this up a while, then make some kind of gold-fringe-on-the-flag decision and then a year later the Supreme Court goes, “you guys are nuts, but we invented another reason to kill it.”

What would we ever do without the valiant dealerships acting in the best interest of consumers protecting us from the big evil Feds?

Cuba = Communist with a big ‘C’ in that it is one-party rule where said party is the source of all governmental, professional, and social activity. Like China, you want to get ahead, you must be in the party. Not in the party means you are nothing/marginalized. Oppose the party and find yourself at best in prison. In…

Another communist success story.

Its beyond stupid that we still have Cuba on an embargo. Just because they are communist? Hello? We import billions of shit from China. And they do a lot of TERRIBLE things to their population. Open up Cuba and they would have an instant tourist economy as its so close to the US which would help their economy and help…

The people that stuck them there don’t know that other countries exist.

Absolutely psychotic behavior, totally unacceptable.

I wonder if women get briefed by developers/publishers when they’re hired to act or model for a game, if they’re at all made aware of what will happen in social media as a consequence of being hired. I wonder if, whoever will end up being cast as Abby in HBO’s adaptation of The Last of Us, she will be made aware that,…

I don't know if it's because I've been in a dark place in my life lately but harassers like this should be neutered so that their genes can't contaminate any further generations. Pathetic losers

You can just say NO to every single thing a finance department tries to sell you. It’s really, really easy, saves lots of time too. Every 2yo is really good at it, channel your inner two year old. Even better, bring one with you, that will speed things along too, especially if you can arrange a stinky diaper. Borrow…

I love how new car dealers have turned into Craigslist posters the last two years. “$10,000 in upgrades. No low ballers. I know what I’ve got.”

Silly dealer markups are entering a new....
