Not to defend Square Enix - because it’s hard to look at their history and assume the publisher is blameless - but it’s entirely possible these games have legitimately missed the profit margins they needed to be considered successful.

Of course, aggregation sites are total bullshit, a copout that boils discussion down to metrics and allows fans to isolate themselves from meaningful critique. But that doesn’t negate that critics are skewering this thing.

Russia is a lost cause, from a democratic and societal point of view IMO. The wheels that’d require turning to get it anywhere near parity with other social democracies feel impossibly large. At a minimum, we’d have to wait for Putin to die, and hope his successor was weak enough, and pro-democractic groups strong &…

Schadenfreude is the only goal of a leftist. 

That makes you a racist too chief. So youve literally made the problem worse and propagated more racism. Kudos on ensuring we will never have a post racial society. 

Feel like “I love you, Man” should have gotten a shout out here.

The information has been reported in several outlets, I just happened to use the Daily Mail since it was at the top of the search results.

This all makes me very anxious. My entire life I’ve judged games based on fun and the narrative and the challenges and the art and how they control and how holistically finished they feel. Little did I know I was doing it all wrong, and I should instead have focused on puddles and trees and a character’s climbing…

Ditto

I liked the movie and think Perleman and McKay are entitled whiners who don’t understand the purpose of criticism and view any statement that might hurt their feelings as “unfair.”

Alternately, you, McKay and Perlman need to come to terms with the fact that one can like or be proud of something that’s bad without it being a value judgement on you. (I like plenty of stuff that’s objectively bad, like Hostess Cupcakes.)

When the overwhelming majority of all critics and many, many, many of the…

I’ve heard it’s just an hourlong preview for Obi-Wan and at the end a title card appears that says “Through the clue provided by the Hutts, the Republic rapidly figured out the Pykes’ whole plan and arrested all criminals, successfully preventing war on Tatooine.”

I’m baffled why this is even a featured story.

The “professional courtesy” thing among cops needs to stop. Forever. Seriously, do these bastards truly have pride in their profession if they are helping peers get away with crimes that they are intensely trained to identify and prevent? If anything, they should be proud to weed out and eliminate from their ranks any…

I still work for a Forbes Global top 20 company, multiple “LOBs” over 20 years in varying level of authority.

I think that Halo 3, at least in my world, was the last time I remember genuinely enjoying multiplayer and that was mostly down to custom games.

I remember buying Crackdown just to get into the Halo 3 beta and being pleasantly surprised by both games.

Aw, bummer, I actually had been thinking I should try to get the last few achievements but... oh well.

er what? Will PSVR2 be capable of PC VR?

I think no matter which VR headset you get, you’ll still need a decent PC to run Half-Life: Alyx since it’s a PC VR exclusive. Quest 3 wont do anything a Quest 2 already does in that regard.

I just decided to give up and use purpose-built devices for things a while ago. It all started when I decided to use my PS2 as my primary DVD player, and it summarily decided to eat my brand new Raiders of the Lost Ark DVD (part of the just-released box set). I bought a Blu-ray player rather than using my PS3 as one,…
