I started the game a month or so ago and just recently finished. I’ve never had an fob invasion, and I actually built mine a little bit.

They used to just be the metacritic review average, right? Why did they change?

Sometimes he sprints flat, sometimes not. I remember from a previous kotaku post on this these guys are trying to do things like finish on a specific frame at a specific time. It’s pretty crazy all the little things they know.

I feel like a lot game development disaster stories are driven by teams not wanting to think, and manage themselves, like a large software development project. Defining system architectures and writing interface requirements documents doesn’t sound sexy, but that lack of a formalized agreement really hurt their…

It’s 11:24 PM where I am as I start checking (skipping “shared from”non-Kotaku stories):

Wait, what’s the “exact” reason? Because you think it reads like an ad? What avenue do you allow for writers to supply pre-release information about a game without it reading like an ad? Put another way: If she comes across a game that she thinks looks interesting, how, precisely, would you like to see her communicate…

Kotaku, and all the old gawker media blogs, are just that: blogs. Lots of posts are opinion and interpretation of other news stories, some are original journalism, some are assorted musings, some are rants, and some are just things that catch the writer’s eye that might interest the audience. If the author sees a game…

As a consumer, you should want at least a degree of caution and pragmatism from them because the success and failure of big projects changes the industry. If you want a game like Star Citizen promises to be, and then they bomb, it will be a long time before anyone invests the resources into trying something like…

Yah, I guess I get it now. I only think of Steam as a marketplace since I don’t play many online games. Well I’ve played more passively online games like Dark Souls recently, but I didn’t think of Steam as providing the actual multiplayer service.

I rarely play online games anymore so I’m way behind, but I don’t think those services do what I’m saying. They may provide account information to the game, but the games have their own servers, matchmaking services, connection services, etc. ....right? When I think of what Battle.net supplied that was unique, I’m…

It doesn’t have to be called anything. Here in 2016, a game intended to be played multiplayer releases with the ability to find and connect to other players, or it isn’t multiplayer. You’ve used dozens of multiplayer clients, and they were all called “part of the game.” Back then, that wasn’t the case.

Don’t forget the last names! Cloud Strife! Even in the 7th grade I knew that was a little too on the nose.

Since it looks like they’re using the Fox Engine mostly unchanged from MGS V and a lot of its assets this probably won’t be nearly as expensive. As someone else pointed out, this is more like a MGS V mod at this point.

I’m a little curious about that. For one thing, she’s a minor who should have no expectation of privacy on her parent-owned computer on their paid-for network. Would it be illegal for the parents to listen in on a phone call in their house on their phone line? I really don’t know. Side-thought: It must be awful to be…

You’re right! And very likely it’s unsigned

0 is an integer and the resulting value would be significantly different from 5000! Mishandled case-handling or something like that is my guess.

How much did you pay for it? You still get the update. The goty is 50 bucks for the main game and the two paid expansions. Assuming you want both paid expansions you’re still not very deep in the red.

I don’t think composers are trying to write safe, forgettable music. Of course everyone would love to have their own Star Wars theme, but I think it’s just too hard to do. When you talk about “the” iconic scores, you’ll probably list a dozen movie/series that span 40 years (and half of them written by John…

It’s not bad, but you probably still recognize that the Indiana Jones theme is every bit as iconic as Star Wars. Of course there are people who couldn’t think of the Star Wars theme if pressed either

I’ve never heard of this before this article but it sounds...exceptional? I should pay more attention to upcoming games.
