My guess is that they’re getting as much “training material” as they can before they fire all of the writers and use an AI trained on these “guides” so they can run the site without any staff at all (which they can then sell as a money-making asset, instead of an unprofitable encumbrance).

Why go that route with the site when GameFAQs and IGN have been doing guides for years? The site’s infrastructure doesn’t even support a guide format. You’re really going to make a slideshow for each game’s tips? Fuck right out of here.

Working for your own standards can be, if not, inevitably the healthier choice as fandoms become increasingly toxic over time with a successful IP product that you find yourself involved with the development with. Sometimes, it’s better to get your ideas and visions out there with a sense of satisfaction than trying…

Our writer covering the Star Wars Battlefront Classic Collection didn’t experience server issues...

Multiple things can intersect and be true at once if you consider the history at play here.

You mean random weirdos on the internet were wrong when they said they were done making xboxs? Shocking.

PS5 is already showing it’s age hardware wise

Maybe all the world-shaking events has screwed with our sense of proportion? Could be? Possibly?

That’s a good point. While exclusives are certainly effective at user acquisition, they don’t necessarily increase retention. If you’re only interested in specific exclusives and would otherwise prefer to play everything else on a different platform, those exclusives aren’t going to get you to switch ecosystems. I…

If all of the Microsoft exclusives are going also show up on playstation and PC, remind me again what the selling point for the Xbox console itself is?

That’s definitely me. I have both consoles, PS5 and Series X, and I much prefer using the Series X over the PS5. It just seems more user friendly and more functionality. I’m also surprised how much the PS5 has locked behind PS+, I haven’t gotten to use the advertised features because I’m currently not subscribed. I…

Someone might prefer Xbox-specific features like Quick Resume, the controller, free cloud saves, Play Anywhere, Smart Delivery, the UI, etc. MS also allows dev/pubs to sell keys outside of XBL/MS Store and you can pretty easily earn gift cards via MS Rewards, resulting in cheaper games.

I’m a gamer, a regular reader of this site and other gaming sites, and a fan of Bioshock and I either missed or forgot the initial trailer, as well. It was in December of 2022 and there’s been no other word about it since then, not exactly something that helps things stick in your memory 13 months later, particularly…

Until 2 minutes ago, I didn’t even know it existed. 

On one hand, I’m guessing they’re just talking about the game, not life.

On the other hand, you have made me realize just how much life is like a souls game; endless challenges made arbitrarily hard for the benefit of the few, and the only advice anybody ever gives you is “get gud” and expect to fail for most of it.

People go to school and spend their lives training to become artists. With digital art it was still humans creating it. Having their work replaced by generative garbage like this is an insult. This will only lead to more people struggling to find work and make a living.

Recycling the exact same argument you clowns used for NFT’s two years ago, I see. Well, I guess if you guys were capable of coming up with new ideas, you wouldn’t need AI.

Even I was relieved when I clicked and it was an actual list!

Just two things;
