"Shigeru Miyamoto, Hideo Kojima, Will Wright, Tim Schaffer. These men are probably some of the most recognized names in the gaming industry and have produced some of the most well known games to date. Anyone who is into gaming has at least heard of these people and those who love gaming would probably saw off their own foot just to meet one of them. However, one individual stands out from the rest of these giants, someone not quite as a well known but just as well-loved by his fans as the others, Notch."
Mojang has partnered with Merlin Entertainments to build the world's first Minecraft theme park in the UK.
Ben Porter from Newzoo explains that the player base has very little overlap with mainstream hits such as Assassin's Creed: Shadows and Ghost of Yōtei
I used to buy cheap games thinking I’d play them later, but I always ended up returning to my favorites. Now I skip the deals unless I know I’ll play the game soon.
This is very true, my nephews grew up on these two games and whenever I introduce them a AAA game whether old or new, it's like seeing an alien try to make sense of it and then quickly lose interest in it.
Can’t really expect a 8 year old Roblox kid to go buy resident evil 9 lol
Gaming trends are so weird to me now. Like, I’m old school and games were consumed essentially how movies were. You play through a title and look forward to the sequel or other things that came out. Now, that is so not the norm.

So it only takes to make an overpriced piece of junk to be considered as a video game rockstar? Cute. When Terraria kept adding amazing stuff and only costed 10 bucks, Minecraft was struggling with issues and costed 20 euros eventhough it didn't have half of the stuff Terraria had and with 1.1 patch, it'll put Minecraft to the ground once and for all with 222 new items and 35 new enemies and 5 new high end bosses. But of course there's no way to make the sheep who bought the game understand these facts so they'll end up touting some fat idiot in a fedora as a rockstar...
