Agree with all that but the caveat I’d add is that I don’t think it’s worth paying extra for. I’d say if people are lucky enough to be able to purchase a PS5 for its regular price absolutely go for it but for people tempted to pay scalper price my advice is to wait it out. The games aren’t going anywhere. In fact the…

Did you pay scalper price for one or were you able to purchase one for retail?

I don’t get it either. Might be an unpopular opinion but the people willing to pay these prices are also guilty and nearly as bad as the scalpers. I’m not condoning scalpers but when people are willing to overpay by hundreds of dollars, possibly double retail price, I understand the hustle. Scalpers can't exist…

In situations like these I just think, why not replay the original game then? Guess it comes down to what people want in their remasters but I feel like changes and improvements are to be expected with a Remaster. If people would rather nothing be changed the original is still there.

Here’s my counter argument, what does it matter from Sony and MS’s perspectives? From what we know both companies just had their biggest launches ever and shipments are selling out within minutes of being available. Besides having more units available at once would there really have been a benefit in delaying the…

I can still remember doing Christmas shopping the year the Xbox One S released and running into a family friend that was “buying the new Xbox for their son.” To this day I wonder if the son, who admittedly was probably in his 20s at the time, thought this was actually a brand new Xbox or if he knew it was essentially…

It surprises me that this is an issue for some people. I guess if you have some vision impairments it can be difficult to see but I’ve found it easy to find the button without looking pretty much since day one. I mean it’s right in between the two sticks...it kind of baffles me that people that play games without ever…

The shape and placement of the button hasn’t effected me one bit. I didn’t even realize people had an issue with in until this article, nearly 2 months after the console release.

Really? I’ve had the PS5 since it released and I don’t think I’ve once had to look down and find the home button.

Maybe I’m in the minority but I’m pretty much adjusted to it at this point. Sure there are times when hold the button instead of just pressing it but it’s takes mere seconds to readjust and get where I want to be. There should be an option to change the interaction so you can control what happens with a press or a…

“It’s not about the win, it’s about what happens after.”

I haven't tried Hades yet because of the reasons you've mentioned. All the rogue-likes I've tried leave me feeling the same way. They can be fun and cool at first but, for me, they usually become repetitive fairly quickly. Maybe Hades will be the one that changes my mind but I haven't been interested enough to give it…

I actually like that the Game Awards is treated as a celebration for the industry as a whole. Like sure there are “winners” and “losers” but it’s really about saying “look how great this industry is that we all love and appreciate. Here are the games that excelled in specific or multiple areas. Here are the games that …

“It is a miserable fucking game but it is the critic’s darling for some inexplicable reason.”

I know this was just a cinematic trailer but this scratched an itch that I've had for years.

I hope this game being set in the PUBG “universe” is largely unimportant to the game and story. I just want a cool survival sci-fi, horror game in the vein of Dead Space not one that also has to explain how and why it’s connected to a seemingly unrelated battle royale game that I have no interest in.

“TLOU2 is a triumph, its not for everyone, I don’t think that was its goal but hey. Its a winner.”

“And it appears it was meant to be so.”

I’m not chinese so I can’t fairly comment but I just can’t imagine getting this upset over one little dumb joke from a movie. I understand people clearly take offense to it but does it really warrant the “cancel culture” type treatment?

It’s amazing to think that, at this point, there is a generation of gamers out there that never really experienced gaming before the existence of DLC, microtransactions, or even mobile gaming. Paying for extra content has existed ever since they started playing videogames. It’s normal for them while us “older” gamers…
