Shouldn't the fake title be "The Lion of Lannister"?

Fuckin' LOVE Crusader Kings II, though I've only played like 5 hours of the standard game. The Game of Thrones Mod that was made for it is just too damn awesome.

Yeap. Surprised it's not actually. On top of being an excellent game, it's also a very "PC" game. You won't get games like these on consoles.

Nope. PC means Windows PC.

Agreed. I worked at a mobile advertising company for 3 years and 50k/day is definitely not out of the realm of possibilities, especially for a chart-topping application.

That's what everyone says after they make a fat stack of cash.

I was speculating that the more less-computer-savvy people you have playing a game, the more likely you are to get clicks on those ads. And it was at the top of the charts, so a lot of "less-computer-savvy" people were playing. Plus it's a game all about repeatedly tapping a tiny mobile screen, so accidental clicks…

He's not saying, but I bet you he got a phone call from Nintendo's legal team telling him what they'll do to him in court for stealing their images unless he takes the game down immediately.

We can, and probably should.

The Impossible Game indeed wasn't the first auto-runner with shapes, not even close.

Could you imagine the current state of the game industry if id stopped everyone from making an FPS?

You mean pipe shaped?

While the legal terms here may be wrong the idea is the same. This is Impossible Game (and perhaps Impossible Game wasn't the first of its kind either) but it's exactly the same thing with a different shape and a different level. I realize that copyright can't be too strict otherwise people could have called Eragon a…

And there's nothing wrong with being Mario inspired. If no one took inspiration, we'd never progress.

Nintendo doesn't own green pipes. Hell, they've had pretty much every pipe color in Mario.

That being said, Flappy Bird is still crap.

It's pretty obvious that those pipes are copied. If they weren't copied, why are they the same shape and color?

To be honest, I saw this and my first thought was "Nintendo." Not knowing anything but a half second glance and that was my thought. There's a very fine line to homage and blatantly ripping off, and I think this guy is definitely in ripping off territory. He best hide that money pretty well or spend it fast, I…

Red Dead runs on the same engine (minus the iterations made for GTA V). So it's definitely not that they didn't have experience and the development was significantly helped on that game by Rockstar North which is the lead developers for GTA V.

its the combat, i think. I personally can't stand turn based combat, or any system where i lack direct, instant control of a character. but even in jrpgs with combat I can tolerate, the grinding turns me way off. although to be fair, i haven't played many jrpgs, so my data set is limited. and now that i think about…

Typical PC feminist Kotaku comment.

Geez, if only Capcom was smart enough to put this DLC on the disc, then those who wanted it could just download an unlock code after purchasing it, while everyone else would already have the data on their disc, drastically cutting down the size of the patch.

Robert Downey Jr. was in blackface for the greater part of Tropic Thunder and was nominated for an Oscar for supporting role for it. Blackface is totally fine, it matters how you pull it off.
