STAT | $2.40 – Amount of revenue eSports generates per enthusiast right now, resulting in $275 million this year, according to Newzoo; the firm expects that to hit $4.63 per fan by 2018, which still leaves eSports well behind traditional sports like basketball that generate $14 per fan.

Finally watched American Werewolf in London. Was a pretty solid film, to my surprise ... Landis was someone I always went to for comedy, but he had a legit horror talent demo’d with this film. Was a shame what happened on the Twilight Zone movie though ... a terrible moment in corners cut and IRL horror happening. :/

I think though after the 2nd kid bought it violently on-webcam, that’s the point where it stops being logical for me. Granted, the ghost said if they leave they’ll get owned, but imo, good luck trying to be everywhere at once when they all run out of their houses at the same time.

This actually looks like it would fit in with the whole 4th-wall Eternal Darkness Gamecube classic. Pretty cool!

“MARIO. LET’S PLAY A GAME.”

No level cap? So will it be possible to have perks which add more than +1 S.P.E.C.I.A.L. points?

I loved this game. With XBL plus friends plus free-time I had back then, it was the best way to play something while we weren’t playing a ‘game-game.’

This was awesome. It was like a modern-day Surrealist painter’s treatment of video. Hervo’s got some mad skills!

There are mods for that. Firaxis put in caps because of the whole slow-down and crashy bit (what happened to the first iteration of this), but the mods up the capacity and stabilize it just enough for this stuff to not freeze-out in turn 5.

It’s a nuke party, and everyone is the kindling for the bonfire!

Wouldn’t an automatic weapon have loaded one in the chamber? That one where Vault Boy stole the clip out of the enemy’s weapon ... seems like it’d be a better idea to reverse-pickpocket a live grenade into the guy’s pocket, and run!

Yes!

From the 2nd trailer, I assume the 1st-person protagonist is a super-cyborg prototype of an evil government/corporation/something that gets freed ... to free the shit out of the world, delivering freedom from their lives to any and all bad guys!

I kind of feel that back in the 80s, this is the kind of film I would have loved with Stallone or Schwarzenegger, but they lacked anything but steady-cams to really make that work, and even then, it probably wouldn’t be as amazing as the action this film promises.

I think Mattrick tried wagging the dog, with the market being the dog. Interesting ideas, but when a company that large fails to do just that, then it’s a cautionary tale for all hardware sellers that even the biggest fish can’t always make waves in the market’s water (basically they can’t dictate what the market…

Paul Hollywood’s quote ... the answer is in his last name. You look to market and spread the word about your game. It can be done cheaply. Don’t need a PR and Marketing department to expand consumer awareness of it. That’s for huge companies with AAA titles. You just need some catchy trailers, maybe a demo, and…

Pretty much. I mean, O’Donnell could have been Derrick May and produced Strings of Life, but if their metrics show that they should put Venga Boys’ We Like to Party in there, then there’s gonna be beef.

Sometimes it’s because the artistic director’s work isn’t what the executive wanted, or the executive simply doesn’t like it. So it’s not always about the executive thinking they can do better, but simply, their tastes rest elsewhere from the artistic director.

I regretted GTA 5 immensely. And that was after 2-3 other regrettable pre-orders, Fallout New Vegas and Red Dead Redemption.

I feel like I’m watching a TV show when I watch particular LPers. A very long TV series, actually ... because the games can have 20+ hours of play to them, and some people clock in with multiple parts, which can be 25 minutes to an hour a piece, depending on their style.

I love horror genre. Wes was one of the elites.
