Botw sold more copies than every other previous entry combined. Of course its going to be the new format going forward. Get used to durability, nerds.

Dude, he just wrote the article, don’t shoot the messenger.

What a chud. Instead of paying $2,000 for whatever this piece of software is, just rewatch the "I dated a robot" bit from Futurama.

You will be unsurprised to learn that this take is just as wrong about Bastion/Transistor/Pyre/Hades as it is about Final Fantasy 1-3.

I’m expecting good things since I loved the Bunsen and Beaker one they did for Untitled Goose Game. They should also use Statler and Waldorf one year. 

The discs, packaging, and shipping were always a pittance of the actual overhead cost of bringing the product to market. The money is spent on the development and marketing, and the budgets required for AAA games are in the hundreds of millions of dollars.

Yup. Sure is a lot of taking everyone at their word here. And, as you pointed out, silence isn’t agreement. Thinking that you might get a good thing going, does not mean that you have a good thing going. My guess is VGBC pulled the plug on 2022 in a fit of anger (justified or not), not realizing that it didn’t have to…

Speaking of, reminder that Kinja allows someone to dismiss stupid shithead bigots who reply to them in the grays.

Very interesting thought. Mine is that he’s all hot potato and making it MS’s problem going forward. All skilled workers should Unionize, we gotta look out for us and not leave it to the corporations. No matter how nice, an org’s job is profit and it’s good to have some balancing force to that type of growth/greed. 

Yeah, definitely seems like a “not my monkeys” situation.

That is super surprising that Kotick would do this, voluntary or not. Can't help but think Microsoft's stance forced his hand. He can treat it in a way that as long as the sale goes through, this is Microsoft's problem not his.

I actually learned from a comedic insurance ad (Farmers?) to not put water on a grease fire, but rather, cover it.

You’re right. You should stop looking at these articles.

just make a new ssx!

I 100% get this sentiment.... But if EA did a THPS1+2 type of remake with SSX Tricky and/or 3, [insert JPG of Fry with a wad of cash]

Have I got news for you then.

well there’s no pause, so he couldn’t set the controller down to answer anyway.

This is actually the result of a phone call, he bowled right through the game.

He had to be that fast to make it in between bowling sessions.
