Thank you beta testers, we appreciate your hard work and purchase.”

Just your routine reminder that paying for early access really means you are likely paying more for an unfinished product.  Nothing to see here. 

Dilly dally, shilly shally

By buying this product, you’re only supporting Konami’s shitty business practices. You shouldn’t buy bad products in the hopes that the company will use your money to make better products. It’s far more likely that the company will just continue shitting out bad products because people like you are buying them.

Given their past remasters, there's a good chance that even Konami doesn't have the original source code lol

So Matt Booty is taking over? Seems like an improvement. Hopefully Activision will make more than just CoD now. Interstate 76 is begging for a remake.

Truly we have achieved Video Game: The Video Game.

God, I hope and pray that the multi-verse trend would just die already. It can be done in smart ways here and there, like in Everything Everywhere All At Once, but otherwise it’s a trope that has been beaten to hell and shoehorned into so many franchises that don’t need it and/or it doesn’t make sense for in the

They are “saving the planet”. People demanded manufacturers to stop shoving unnecessary things into boxes. 

I have one that’s drifting and one that isn’t.

Did an AI write this or are there just no editors at Kotaku now?

All the programmers of the Fox Engine left Konami. Konami didn’t update Fox Engine for PES and moved onto Unreal for eFootball.

I have a theory that they did it because a lot of the original developers at Konami who are used to the Fox Engine are gone, and Unreal is easier for new hires/contractors to pick up.

... that plot point wasn’t scrapped. You literally launch the rocket at meteor.

Actors are paid based on their marketing value (i.e. how much value their name brings to the product). Videogame voice actors bring very little marketing value. Nobody bought MGS because Jennifer Hale provided VO for it. Conversely, most people will pay to watch movies if their favorite actors are in them.

They do vote with their wallets. Which is why EA and other game companies can continuously expand these microtransactions despite the complaints.

I mean, nowadays people just use controllers with their phone.

I lived through Sony 4/11. Never forget.

Now playing

This is a better way to enjoy a David Cage game.
