One day... One day I want a gaming conference/convention/event where all the presenters look fly as hell. Like, completely dressed to kill. That'd be cool.

Firstly, this was an ad. The entire presentation was one giant ad for the Playstation brand, that's not really debatable. And diversity, as I said, is important. Representation of marginalized groups is important when they've made contributions to the medium, and they have. Not only is it about the perspective they…
So every presenter there was the lead designer or president of a studio? I don't know myself because I was tuning in and out. And, honestly, how much does that matter to the viewer/audience? If you've got someone who is passionate, informed, capable and qualified to present on a subject, their position within the…
Forget what exactly? I don't think I'm clear on what you're trying to say.
There are no women presenters anywhere capable of speaking with some level of knowledge or perceived knowledge on a subject related to gaming? That's some bullshit. Seriously. Not angry but it's bullshit.
Intent does not matter, results do and it doesn't need to be an attack to be problematic or demeaning.
There are almost always qualified women and people of color to fill whatever given position. Yes, they are fewer but they exist. White men are the "norm." They're seen as default and that in itself is dangerous. I'm sure someone could make the case for diversity but it's a case that honestly shouldn't have to be made.…
I wish there'd been some gameplay but honestly this looks horribly uninspired. It almost like western fantasy as a whole isn't even trying to do anything fresh. It's FICTION! You can do whatever the hell you want with it and somehow it always comes down to dragons, a variety of european accents, various shades of…
A Japanese developer made and endless runner? My iPad might just see some gaming yet...
Yo! This game! So great! I wonder why we don't see stuff like that anymore? They'd make perfect downloadable games...
I dig all the music I've heard for the game! It's like late 90s nu-metal meets Ghost in the Shell!
The article image made me smile but this article had me ROARING! Chris, you've got yourself a new fan, haha. Huge fan of the game but it's cool to see an article poking fun in a way that isn't malicious or anything.
"the only difference?" That's a bit of a stretch, my man.
Well, you're pretty clearly an idiot BUT I will absolutely give you the level design and the combat I very much dig both but it ain't DMC, just a game with the name. Everything else - the characters and story in particular get a round of condescending laughter from me.
HOLY WOW! That is literally the only "Ya know, MGR could've been cool as this" example I've seen that sounds totally amazing! I mean, I'm in love with the current MGR but that is a really fantastic idea. I look forward where the "reverse horror" game is actually a thing.
Damn, is it terminal?
Two things:
You know, I kinda thought about that myself after I posted my comment. I feel like my definition of a AAA game isn't really objective. Like, a AAA game to me gets a ton of advertising in and outside of gaming media, gets talked about nonstop all over the place, is HIGHLY anticipated by a huge number of folks and is…
I don't know why but it always weirds me out when I see non-western not-quite-AAA games that I enjoy get generally good reviews. It's creepy. Stop liking things that I like! I demand it!
Also, is anyone else somewhat taken aback when a reviewer of any caliber admits to not knowing something or not being good at something with respect to gameplay? It's silly, I know, and I've tried to fix it but even now it still surprises me when it happens. I've never really trusted reviewers opinions but I always…
