PT was great in its time but with Visage in Early Access (but looking pretty solid already) I feel like there’s more complete scary-as-shit experiences to be had. I guess something is still happening with Allison Road too?

Tons of games take a couple hours to really get rolling. It’s not realistic to think a lot of games can hook you from the opening scene. As someone else said RDR2 is the exact same way. It’s fine to say a game’s not for you, just don’t say “it’s boring” when you haven’t even made it through the tutorial zone. That’s…

I have to imagine the people behind this are looking to gain some exposure and perhaps a publishing deal, rather than a quick buck (neé penny). I for one hope the plan fails miserably so that this doesn’t create an ugly precedent, and since everyone agrees this game is garbage I think we’ll be OK.

I actually kind of like these games for what they are but can’t understand how anyone could want to play these enough to have them memorized. Never even occurred to me to play one a second time. Respect!

Greatly looking forward to RE:2 but not sure I can bring myself to pay full fare on it. Might be a summer buy. Besides that I can work the backlog until Far Cry New Dawn if that gets better reception than Far Cry 5 which I still haven’t played. Then I’ll get Anthem if that turns out strong. Overall, I’m fairly…

I don’t know how to precisely answer your question but I’ll bet there’s loads of data to suggest that a game will perform better releasing alongside a competing title rather than in summer when people (not me) are outside more, vacationing, etc. Let’s not forget these publishers have teams that get paid good money to…

“Dude I literally broke down in the gym crying,” wrote one fan in response. “This means a lot to me, thank you.”

All told, this all doesn’t seem as disappointing as years past. Maybe 2018 was alright after all in this one narrow slice of human interest. 

This is a great series, always fascinating. Never stop!

Don’t forget the Razer Store! It... falls somewhere among the rest, with very little to separate it. They do have a rewards program and some fairly generous coupons, if you’re after the right games (Ni No Kuni 2 for example). 

VR optional. It’s a PS4 exclusive. 

It is way easy. At least on normal difficulty, it seems like even if you’re mobbed by 17 enemies only 2 at a time will strike out at the player, making it effectively 8.5 2 person battles. I imagine this is one of the things that increases in higher difficulties, but I’m not really complaining with a long backlog and…

Just going to pile on to say your take was trash. Basically all copyrighted works can fit your awful description of why something can’t be copyrighted, e.g “You can’t own a song because our ears only can hear a limited range of sounds that can only be put together a finite number of ways.” Horrible take! Happy…

That’s not a good number for Wolfie 2 though. More people played Detroit for chrissakes. Not good. 

Reminds me of the Napster days when albums would leak six weeks before release. By the time the real thing came out we’d already be onto the next thing. 

Yeah I bought it like 2 days after getting the Project Stream invite because I loved it and didn’t want to have to finish by January 15th. Oh well, plenty of game there to get my $60 worth. 

Won’t work if you don’t pass their speed test, which you won’t. Unless you have a friend or family with high speed internet. You can login anywhere that it’s not blocked.

Oh I think GOG deserves a TON of praise at all times. They work tirelessly to restore good old games to work on modern PCs. The lengths they go to to make this happen is often staggering. It’s a group of people that are staunchly committed to preserving and celebrating game culture. They deserve all those nice things…

Looking forward to hearing Nathan Grayson’s take when he stops screeching. 

I guess that fact is fun but also kind of dumb. Of course Vita has more exclusives, those are handheld titles. For the most part PS4 exclusives have been massive-scale AAA GOTY-contenders that spend years in development. Can’t exactly shit those out at the rate of visual novels and mahjong. Vita exclusives are largely…
