Games aren't what they used to be. I don't see many(if any) epic hits
like Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, or Super Mario 64, Final Fantasy
V, and Final Fantasy IX, Mortal Kombat II, Killer Instinct 2, Banjo
Kazooie, Metal Gear Solid, Mario Kart, Super Mario 3... Just... classic
hits like that.
Nowadays all games are about who has the
biggest score, and who is the best at it. Not about how much fun it is.
Fighters are about boobs, FPS's are about online competitions, TPS's
are turning the same way. Platformers aren't hardly even platformers
anymore, it's just get from Point A to Point B, nothing like Mario 64
which I think should be the game all platformers need to be more
similar to. Racing games are about how realistic it is or how many
different options there are to customize a car. RPG's & JRPG's are
all about girly men having feelings for some girl, and on the other
side is [insert lame storyline here]. or just about leveling up and
being online, and making people pay a monthly fee. It's just complete
crap! Sports games are all about adding new features in one year at a
time, and still being the same game.
Games suck. This era
sucks. Gas prices are high, all the fun things are being outlawed(big,
cool fireworks, skateboarding, loud music, being shoeless((I hate
wearing shoes and socks)), it's just... nothings fun anymore. When I
hear stories from my mom and dad talking about all the things they did
in high school and all that, they had cool stuff. I used to play with
those little green soldiers when I was a kid, and my dad told me about
10" to 12" tall green soldiers that actually shot stuff, big rockets he
could have... all sorts of cool things.
I hate safety, I
hate this era, I hate life but dammit I've got nothing better to do.
Sorry for getting completely off topic, I'm in a bad mood.
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
The charity event will be streamed live from Gamescom in August.
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
Agreed Agreed Agreed Agreed...
A few words though:
ICO = awesome
Shadow of the Colossus = awesome
Team ICO's next project = unknown, but it will be great.
Halo does nothign for me, Resistance does nothign for me, Gears does nothign for me. Where are the epics, i agree.
i get ticked with all this saftey stuff the senate comes up with one thing though why even buy a nascar game? they all suck anyway the sport is just plain bull they take left turns for a living and are filthy rich
