(expect reviews on both of these titles to hit the site in a couple of days) It got me thinking about all of the titles that have been either ported or have had an original game produced for the IPhone/IPod Touch that has been based on an already existing title. The list is staggering to say the least.
From Mega Man II and Oregon Trail, to Metal Gear Solid Touch and Assassin's Creed there have been so many different games made for this device. With even more games coming in the near future. There are numerous movie tie-in games like Terminator Salvation and Watchmen: Justice is Coming, not to mention how many others are down the pipeline. Who thinks a Transformers game is coming?"

Growth driven by digital software and console hardware sales.

The winner of the Pokémon Go Championship grand finals in Orlando was stripped of their title, allegedly for 'unsportsmanlike conduct' during their victory celebration. The celebration involved the winner removing their headset, standing up, and pumping their fists before shaking hands with their opponent. Many believe the ruling was excessive and that winner's victory celebration was tame compared to celebrations by winners in other competitive games.
There are people that get offended seeing others just enjoying a moment, or enjoying a hobby, or just having fun.
Can someone explain to me what is so problematic with this? I watched video multiple times and all I see dude having bit of celebration. None of his actions felt aggressive or seem like they symbolize anything... Like winning sure deserves bit of celebration like that. I mean who wants to live in the world where you aren't allowed to be excited or have bit of burst of happiness when you win? Like was he supposed to act like emotionless robot? He should be allowed to have bit of his victory "hell yeah" moment, even if it is before shaking hands with opponent. Like it is not like he didn't shake hands or whatnot. And it is not like he is like some super serious government official to have to stick to protocol to a letter. This whole thing is just ridiculous.

These new paid games, game trials and “buy once, play anywhere” pricing are coming to Play.
