I think it’s less “LeVar no longer wants to host Jeopardy” and more “LeVar realized that Sony was not going to hire him and wants people on Twitter to calm down.”

There is zero valid moral or ethical reason to delay development or release of emulators, even of currently-marketed systems. A person that can do the work, and wants to do the work, should.

I wouldn’t limit it to the AV Club commenters—the whole “dirt bag” theme is Jezebel’s to own up to.

No, it’s the same thing. These companies lost a bunch of value because of the crackdown on gaming among minors. Also, the west has been doing some things to deal with this. It varies by country but some countries now require things like the odds to be revealed for loot boxes or to allow the consumer to see what’s…

Yes, this is as much of a crack down on consumers as it is big tech.  Consumers get hit with the time limitation while tech is saddled with trying to enforce it.  

Unless I’m missing something, the regulations here don’t just target ‘Big Tech”, it’s targeting video games in general. It’s like if the government clamped down on kids reading books, and your takeaway was that it’s good that Amazon’s taking a hit.

“Obscene and violent content and those breeding unhealthy tendencies, such as money-worship and effeminacy, should be removed.”

You think this is good?  Really?

What a miserable game.

“[T]here’s no ethical consumption under capitalism.”

But did they really “screw over” ScarJo? It’s been reported repeatedly that Disney+ revenue was being included with regular box office toward her contract bonus benchmarks. Given pandemic era box office returns it’s likely that a “theaters only” release (which seems to be what she’s claiming they should have done) woul…

I read your comment and agree wholeheartedly with it.

Imagine that You’re a game designer or project lead at one of Ubis satellite studios. Maybe [..] Berlin, Bucharest, [...] but you’re crunching 65-80 hours a week

Person who has spent +20 years in a company get’s promoted, which is (apparently) unfair because his skin colour.

I read your comment pal, you're absolutely on the money. Kotaku's been in a nosedive since the UK site shut down

It’s been really sad to watch Kotaku gradually become what its critics have long said it is. I have been reading Kotaku since around 2010-2011, I’m guessing, and it was once by far my favorite site for coverage of games and the culture around games. Over the last year or two, though, and especially over the last few…

I’m a white French guy, and I don’t really see what’s wrong with white French guys.

The title makes me smh. Some articles should point out race, but this one is not needed. You could just say:

Isn’t Ubisoft a French company? How is it relevant that he’s French?

“...sure it’s worked out for someone”
