I rarely comment. But you’re the shit Ash. I’ve enjoyed reading your work. And this a bum out to read. Just wanted to throw some positivity your way in shit times, from a long time reader of this site, recent reader of your work, and consumer of most nerd related things.

Great eye and attention to detail.  Have you ever considered QA as a career?

Hey Jason - this is a great article.  I worked for Activision and on COD for over 10 years and everything reported here is 100% accurate.  I didn’t balk at a single example cited of mistreatment because I had either seen or experienced it all first hand.  I think of all the COD studios Treyarch has the worst…

“There is time to react, time to ponder how one’s opponent might react to a combo or a blocked attack. There’s time to think, which is ironic given Mortal Kombat’strademark mindless gory violence. It’s like chess, only the pieces murder each other.”

Hey Steven - are there any noticeable gameplay improvements?  Anything cut to make that initial slog to playing as Connor as an adult more palatable?  I saw your previous posts talking about hiding in grass and dual assisinations, but those were there in the original, right?  Did they improve on that somehow?  I’m…

“Fallout 4 won’t launch unless I get up and use my mouse to click on the prompt that appears when starting the game.”

Excellent share man. Watched the whole thing. Couldn’t properly articulate everything I always felt was wrong with the “feel” of the game, but that was a great summary. Thanks. 

MK is one of the most visually and aurally impressive fighting games ever created and SUCKS so terribly mechanically it is unplayable. I have gone back to the latest iteration several times, and I’m not bad at it, but the flow of the fight and ability to instinctively know when you can respond to and interrupt attacks …

You know man, I thought it was. I am still playing and have been for roughly 30 hours. Combat can be a bit bland at times, and the controls and enemy animations are frustrating from time to time as well. Takes some getting used to. But I have found it very enjoyable. Agonizing over the choice to kill somebody for a…

I think that is only for the x360 games, right?  If you were talking about those specifically then I’m dumb so disregard.

Virtua Fighter isn’t exciting??  Shame on you.

Is that M. Bison or Cammy in her Shadaloo get up?  It’s great and I’m splitting hairs, but just sayin...

Look at the girl’s face in the background of that pic of her as a maid. THIS is likely why she choose to do this. This encapsulates what she thought people thought about her. Good for her if it made her happy, but damn...people are shitty.

Appreciate the reply here. Thank you!

Thanks so much for replying man!!

Does anybody know if you paid for the original beta (alpha?) long ago if you get this for free on steam? I seem to remember Chris saying something along the lines of, “if you buy this now you get the full version when it releases”.

An observation and opinion, much like all the other ones on this site. Nothing more. Nothing less. What you choose to infer is your business.

Seems like you are overly sensitive and that bleeds into the narrative you spin into most of your posts here. Not everything needs to be a hotbed of political discussion.
