Fair points all around. We will just have to wait and see how this plays out. I guess I always saw A.I as a gun. It doesn't matter who wields it, because the intent behind having it is pretty straightforward. Some people will only use the gun as a last resort, primarily to help small businesses and or solo peeps have at least some competitive advantage while they wear many, many hats. Some people will use the gun as a first resort because they see the inherent ...
Steam's summer sales, GOG has frequent massive sales, too. Epic gives a free game all the time. Damn, I was going to mention Redbox for modern console titles, but they went out of business like a year ago. But seriously, there are a ton of options for gaming on a budget. The golden rule is: never buy a game at full price. You really, really don't have anymore if you are just a little patient.

But management of the tool cannot be divorced from the tool itself. These tools are developed with enterprise in mind. They save all the cute "now grandma can have her own A.I assistant!" shtick for their V.C. peeps.
Show me a multi billion dollar company that spends up the ass to implement A.I into their workflows not to pad profits with the increase in productivity, but also to lessen the workloads of their employees, and I'll sh...
We are all getting downvoted by evidently some of the most naive people alive.
I respectfully disagree. When companies utilize things like A.I to become more efficient, it doesn't mean the workload is lessened, but on the contrary, they now think you can be even MORE productive and your workload will actually INCREASE because of your "peak efficiency".
I always think of Ford inventing the assembly line for car making. Cars were made far faster, but it doesn't mean that the cars themselves were quality or that the workers were able to...

why should every fantasy have perfect looking people? and let's not kid ourselves - the woman in this trailer is by no means "unattractive", she's just not cartoonishly over-sexualized like many other games. There's nothing wrong with any game dialing in their look and feel.
You're exploring space here. The escapism can still exist here without overwhelming butt and boob jiggle.
Yes, Uncharted was inspired by Indiana Jones, just like Tomb Raider, but when that first trailer came out for the first uncharted, people were absolutely blown away. It had the best water of any game, Drakes clothes got wet and would dry off as he moved around. The mocap work was insane. Yes, the narrative was intentionally campy, but it was a genre love letter to the type of pulpy adventure serials of the 1920's thru 50's.
The mechanics were interesting and the foundation ro...
hmmmm.....Kind of weirded out by how little of a reaction I had to this.
Beautiful visuals, and no doubt the game will (most likely) be amazing, but there is nothing here that I haven't seen before, and that is NOT usually something that can be said about any of their other games.
I'm not a big fan of blending real life people and in-engine models together. (It's probably the only thing I disliked about WALL-E) so hopefully they can pull it off without it being...
I mean this sincerely: you are a terrible human being.
dude got a double handshake
I remember when that Angel of Darkness wallpaper came out. It might have been the first time in a videogame that I've seen a shirt looking like it's being "stretched". Good times.
people disagreeing with a stated fact made me screenshot this. Never change, N4G. Never change.
Interesting how the Kotaku article shares similar sentiments and is seen as the ultimate enemy of every playstation fanboy, because the author dared to criticize the company for letting go to waste so many classic experiences.
But I agree here with gamerant (and I actually read the articles here on N4G, as opposed to reading a headline and slugline and commenting like 99.9 do here).
Little Big Planet came at a perfect time, and Media Molecule embraced t...
Listen. Not every negative article is a conspiracy theory.
Jesus Christ.
I mean this in the nicest possible way: go outside.
Unless you own stock in Sony or have a family member that works there, it should be of absolute zero importance to you that articles like this exist, or that your gut reaction is "NEGATIVE ARTICLE must mean 2+2=5".
why do I get the impression that no one actually reads the articles anymore.
Read the article.
@Vithar You using the term "banger" let's me know that you're not that old.
The games you've rattled off wouldn't even scratch a typical year during PS1/PS2 days.
As so many other publications have mentioned, Astro Bot is that type of game that would just...come out in earlier generations. Back when AA gaming was a thing, and not title required 5+ years and 150+ people to bring it to fruition.
I know people like to ba...
maybe Ubisoft and I have a different definition for the word "compensation"
THIS. Armed and Dangerous, Grim Fandango, Portal 2, Stanley Parable, Psychonaughts, Monkey Island, Ratchet and Clank... I could probably name on two hands truly funny games, which is an absolute shame.
hopefully, it will also have expandable storage, too...And for that storage to not be overprice and proprietary.
should come out the same day as that 9th episode of Stranger Things.
