But if you did get the fish sandwich, chances are if you’re not happy with that you’ll plop down for another shot at the burger. Conversely, if you get the burger on the first time, you’re done and taking your money somewhere else. “Buywhat you like” MTX inherently make less money because if you can buy what you like…

Good. I can’t imagine that a PS5 would represent more than an incremental upgrade at this point or in the next year or two, and we’d all be spending $400+ for something we can’t fully appreciate.

I hate when I go to the trouble of squinting to read the text on the tablet in the picture only for Grayson to transcribe it for me in the immediate next paragraph. Someday I’ll learn.

I need to go take on the Valkyries, haven’t even approached one yet. I’m genuinely concerned for how badly I’ll get smashed on my first attempt.

You should get this yesterday.

America will need better infrastructure for this model to work. People in urban areas forget that rural internet speeds regularly come in at less than 15mb/s, and thats IF they’re lucky enough to be on the grid. God help you if you’re on satellite internet, but then we can’t worry about those poor devils when making…

I can’t say for sure how many they would sell but I guarantee it would underperform by Nintendo standards. That’s my only point. I’d buy one, but 90% of casuals would not.

Kirk Hamilton wrote up a Witcher 3 primer years ago. Dig that up and read it if you’re not connecting with the story. If the monster slaying or setting aren’t appealing, you might just be in the extreme minority of people who don’t like The Witcher 3. No one’s perfect.

The time is nigh. Put it this way: if you’re anything like 98.5% of gamers, it’s not really possible that there’s a better game for you to prioritize. Any other choice would fundamentally be the wrong choice.

Exactly, that’s an emulation box with many of the most popular games included. Much more commercial appeal than an adapter that involves hunting down and purchasing individual 30-year old cartridges, or buying individual reproductions at Nintendo prices.

That would have very, very niche appeal. Nintendo likes to sell things by the million.

I already know I hate Dealbroken with a passion.

Cool, with no campaign I won’t even have to worry about picking this up at Redbox, much less buying it. Too much good stuff coming out at that time of year anyways. I’ll leave this one to the teenagers.

Going forward, try to keep in mind that events transpired that aren’t covered in the short article you read/skimmed. For example, management could have reviewed cameras, interviewed other employees, or witnessed similar events in the past with the two terminated employees. You seem to be believe this short article is…

Have you opened ‘er up to clean the fans? Makes a world of difference for some. PS4 Pro makes a whole other world of difference though so I’m with you on the original plan.

Don’t hold your breath.

Is it fair to say we’ve reached the level cap on impressive Dark Souls feats? People beat the games bare-handed, they beat it untouched, they beat it with a friggin’ Guitar Hero controller. About the only thing left to surprise me is if I ever manage to finish one.

I don’t consider the DLC part of the long tail (at least strictly speaking) because they have to pay people to make the DLC. That should almost be considered separately, unless we’re just talking costumes, skins, etc but those are better defined as microtransactions.

Just started Beyond:Two Souls and I’m enjoying it so far. I can see it getting stale if it’s a lengthy campaign but the mechanics are cool and the story so far is intriguing.

As much as I don’t like it, we’re going to have to start paying more for AAA games. Someone has to be the first, and it should be a game like Red Dead 2 that will be bought in droves no matter the cost. This would normalize it for more unfamiliar/unknown titles like Detroit or Horizon: Zero Dawn to follow suit. I got…
