No, they weren’t as popular as the Atari VCS. And yes, not many people have heard of them in this day and age. But Nolan Bushnell did. Pong was largely based on a demo Baer did on what became the Odyssey. And it’s not a coincidence that Atari came out with carts a year after the Channel F did.

The Atari VCS is the “OG Home Console”?

Classic Kotaku. You could have written an interesting article about the game series for its 35th anniversary, but I suppose it was easier to just recycle all the Kotaku articles about how bad Quiet’s design is.

I think it’s a great idea. More games should do this instead of outright censorship.

“When I first watched Netflix’s new anime Bastard!!: Heavy Metal, Dark Fantasy, I expected a melodramatic anime series along the lines of Record of Lodoss War.”

Do you want Sharon Apple? Because that’s how you get Sharon Apple.

Sorry, that’ll be $4.99 to comment about the battle hub.

As opposed to the other “gambling aimed at children” systems stretching back across 5+ decades (random collectable figures, ccg packs, baseball card packs, “toy surprise” capsule machines, “collect all X toys” kids meals, “collect all X toys” cereal boxes...)

Good lord.. who approved the title for this article...

That’s asinine. Come on. You can’t honestly think that Apple would have the same level of brand recognition and popularity with this monstrosity on their products.

I am interested because the education I had included courses on logo design and graphic design. Not by any means an expert, considering my final goal from the start was game design, but I would still say that a part of me is emotionally invested in the logo design itself. The giant corporation has got nothing to do…

The new logo is “easier to scan” in that your eyes will glide right over it, take in no details, and become so bored you instantly forget what it looks like. So that’s... a thing. I don’t think the older logo was a GOAT or anything, but certainly better than this boring “we picked a font from the word processing…

Opinions aren’t indicative of an emotional investment. Believe me, I’ve lost millions of theoretical dollars on the opinion market.

The worst kind of boss is the seagull. They flap around making a lot of noise and disrupting everything until something goes wrong. At which point, instead of taking responsibility, they just sh1t on their team. 

>> You swing it to smack the ball over the net in tennis (or the whatever-the-projectile-is-called in badminton)

everyone wanted to be frazzetta and vallejo. i mean the sword on the left guy is literally conan’s atlantean sword. and the front woman looks a lot like an interpretation of valeria of the red brotherhood.

“Netflix doubles down on the thing no one asked for.”
