I still have my copy of Shenmue for the Dreamcast. I don’t think I managed to get through the first two hours of it. I can understand why it’s special to some people, but man, that’s some rough digging to get to the gem buried in there.

I miss the fish.

Using the standard “corrupt cops on the pad” trope is a dodge. Sure, that kind of corruption exists, bu that’s not the kind of institutional rot that affects people’s everyday interaction with police.

I can find no reason to pre-order anything anymore. Amazon got rid of its pre-order discount, and that was the only thing that would ever tempt me. It took me three months to plug through Dark Souls: Remastered. I haven’t played more than the intro of God of War. I haven’t finished the main campaign of The Witcher 3,…

I’ll admit, I have zero interest in sports games, but I wish I could go back in time and develop a lifelong passion for basketball video games, just so I could shun this one.

I wonder how many of those whales are actually planted by Take-Two to wander around the hub in the first few days or weeks after launch with 99-rated characters to pressure other players to spend more.

Who’s that squinty-eyed fellow to the left, I wonder? I hope there aren’t any balconies nearby.

I think a few of those catastrophes might serve the industry well, kick some publishers in the teeth and make them re-think their business practices.

You’re a real treat, holding a protest group to the same standard as taxpayer-funded public servants who have the awesome power to strip away a citizen’s freedom or, under certain conditions, legally end their lives.

The problem with this individual case is both sides are confidently saying that the video shows they’re the ones in the right, and we haven’t seen a frame of footage.

Wow. That’s not great. Early on, I thought that this guy would just go quietly, and any more public shaming and digging into his past reviews was just excessive, considering he’d already lost his job and wouldn’t be getting a new one in games journalism. But that reaction. Yikes. And to single out Jason like that,…

“We were hoping to ruin his career, and all we did was ruin a movie franchise we liked,” they will one day think, 10 years from now, after they grow the hell up.

How much of this is because you’re a dad? I have a 1-year-old son, and most of my gaming is on the switch during my commute now.
