It may sound common to us, but to a developer it’s a unique gameplay experience and may be pursuable in court, especially if they have a copywrite on the game structure. I remember reading a few days ago about a specific tournament structure for card game tournaments that increases the payout based on the number of…

Happy to see LCGs getting some love on Kotaku :)

If playing competitively then the cost can be comparable to TCG. Typically 3 core sets are recommended to make a competitive deck ($120) plus the regular releases and expansions ($15-$30 each). If joining late on a game, then you’re better off trying to buy a used set on eBay where you might find 3 cores and…

I don’t mind the random map rotations, I wish that Activision would adopt this for their CoD Zombies modes. However, it is disappointing that Salmon Run is completely unavailable to play at certain times.

Perhaps I’m mistaken, but this article appears to make the case that BB units hold the same values as true to the R units, which if that’s the case the naming conventions would be the same. But if we take the BB units as their own series then the original R naming conventions don’t apply. However, we don’t have as…

That’s really disappointing. I enjoy playing Super Mario Bros. U and seeing the messages from other players pop up.

I think this is a typo, though I’m hoping not... Monster Hunter Stories for the Switch.

I’d check out Takenoko, Dead of Winter, and (while not listed in the gold sale) Tokaido, which is very well priced.

Why suggest picking 4 random, unrelated words then turn around and say that “monkey dragon baseball princess” is a bad choice. Aside from the fact that this combination is publicly available now (thanks to this article), the password meets the new recommendation.

With how heavy handed other developers can be in tackling exploits (Battlegrounds) I appreciate that this dev is willing to acknowledge the exploits and allow players to use them. Definitely cheap as a player, but respectable for the dev.

Massive Darkness and Rail Raiders.

Look up the original Mega Man Collection released on GameCube. See also the release and remake history of Resident Evil and Metal Gear Solid. The list isn’t long, but it exists.

I have agree that Earthworm Jim was not a very fun platform we. I played it a few times, but found myself using game genie for infinite lives just to beat it. However, I greatly enjoyed its sequel, which I felt played like a far more polished game. Granted I said the same thing about Bubsy II.

I’d agree with you, except the KoP&P2 debacle wasn’t really this developer’s fault. The first was developed by Behold, but the second by KYY. Seems like Paradox (the publisher) was the one who made the cash grab, which Behold had no input in.

Is this an ad for Amazon? I see nothing listed for Crunchyroll or Funimation.

Technically the manual will fit if the box is not assembled. So it did fit during shipping.

4K refers to a specific resolution, which a 15" display will have a much higher PPI than a 60". You’re referring to more specific variables to the actual quality of the display itself. However, it doesn’t negate the diminishing returns on distance to quality. If two displays are created equal with the only difference…

Realm is technically right. He said “may”, which in terms of quality 4K has diminishing returns on the cost to quality ratio after 3 feet. Realistically: unless you have a trained eye and perfect vision you are less likely to notice any jagged lines unless up close. The only time that I could foresee PPI…

This is entertaining. Could someone setup a timer to track the timespan before a Nintendo DMCA request is submit to indie projects following being posted on Kotaku?

I propose a media blackout until Nintendo learns to fairly compensate streamers for the free advertising. They are all too happy to monetize content creators’ videos, be it gameplay or editorial in nature, while not giving back to the community.
