Bethesda as a developer has been pretty mediocre ever since Ken Rolston left. Todd Howard just copy/pasted Rolston's techniques. Skyrim was old, even before it released. Sorry, I don't give them credit for all the modders out there that not only fix Bethesda's bug-filled glitchfests but also release the most interesting content for it as well

Maybe Valve should work on....oh I don't know...perhaps some new games? Keep playin DOTA n eatin those bon bons Sally Struthers. All that cash apparently made you forget why we supported Steam in the 1st place

well to put it in perspective, only Sony and Nintendo have sold 20 million consoles in a calendar year . Sony has done it three times: 2003, 2004, (PS2) and now 2017 (PS4). Nintendo did it twice with the Wii in 2009 and 2010.

Resolution is one of the things that dictate how good a game looks? Are you $#^&%&* stupid? Go play Homefront Revolution in 4K then and type that crap again. Shame on you. What's next? Atari 2600 games look phenomenal rendered in 8K?

The same reason 2 liters of Soda cost less than 20oz. bottles now. You used to pay cheaper prices because the consumer was buying in bulk. Now companies have realized it's more profitable to monetize convenience.

Or....one just might not be gullible and enamored by these company's BS hype and PR tactics. Look at Nintendo. They snowballed the entire online gaming community to believe the Switch is a hybrid console when it's obvious it's a portable device. But they can't call it as such when they're still peddling 3DS revisions and releasing new content for it. I own all 3 systems and still occasionally play on PC. The Pro is obviously weaker than the X, but it's still the best ...

The plot is terrible though. It felt like a expansion rather than a sequel. They couldn't rationally explain why they reset your level so Bungie at the behest of Activision concocted this contrived beginning sequence that doesn't hold up to any critical analysis. If you're a PC only gamer, you have NO context to the story, the protagonists, any of the antagonists, just gameplay. In terms of mechanics, if you know anything about Bungie from its Halo days, you knew the shooter elem...

You wrote a wall of text and never bothered to read the article. Show me where Cliffy B blames PUBG. It was the publisher's chief financial officer Shiro Uemura that did. You didn't even play it. Credibility out the window.

There was a 8 month drought between 1st paty releases on the WiiU. That's not exactly lighting it up. And yes, Nintendo should lose a grade for exiting the console business quietly while masquerading a 9th gen portable as its successor

@ strafe R U fucking stupid? My advice - stay away from pointed scissors and don't eat Elmer's paste. No matter how badly you want to.

@ yeah - my kids are the same. I usually don't gripe about gamepads but those joycons are like a block of wood with buttons on it. So uncomfortable, the pro is ergonomic and simply way better. Unfortunately you'll probably have to suck it up and buy 2 pros if your kids love MP or co-op

not true at least for 2018. While they don't equal Sony's output, MS has 7 published IPs coming next year: Sea of Thieves, Crackdown 3, Halo 6, Forza Horizon 4, State of Decay 2, Last Night, and Ori 2. To put it perspective they're a hell of a lot more active than them lazy %$@# over at Valve.

mine runs 'em in 8K but has to downsample 'em to 4K since I couldn't afford an 8K display. Sad isn't it?

I could see a revision down the road though where Nintendo loses the joycons, slightly shrinks the screen and releases it as the Switch mini for $199. Like they did with the 2DS

Makes me wonder what the hell did the Coalition did. And if they did support the game how bad was it prior to release? Or is it even considered a release since it's an EA game, and that's a clever way of releasing unfinished games to the masses? Maybe Rare should've donated land textures as well. But you go on thinking MS hasn't assisted with the game. It's cute when fanboys think their favorite company isn't culpable....

amigo there's like 5 enhanced 360 games. Obviously, we're expecting more titles to be patched, but know this - PS360 era titles look like shit on a 4K set. Gears 2 looks awful compared to an enhanced 3. MS has done a spectacular job with BC (especially those they update) overall. I wasn't sure if last gen emulation was even possible but those software wizards in Redmond proved a lot of us wrong. I just don't want you thinking every BC game is magically enhanced though by the...

Funny I had the same experience as the author. Bought the 1x, went to family video and rented AC: Origins, Shadow of War, and Wolfenstein II for each system. Thank God for Family Video's 1/2 off deal (cheap plug I know). I came away with the same conclusion - the differences were marginal and the only people spouting off in forums must be fanboys upgrading from the vanilla XOs to 1Xs. No sane gamer is going to firesale his PS ecosystem to buy all Xbox stuff. The UHD player is piss poor an...

I feel MS should approach this in a two-pronged attack. Focus half on patching brand exclusives and the other half on securing popular 3rd party 7th gen games. Give the library a robust selection of exclusive and popular titles that might entice people that don't traditionally game on MS consoles a reason to. Because of this, 10 games feels way too restricted for me. In the former group there are some obvious titles like Gears 2, Halo Reach, LO, Crackdown, Alan Wakes, and the Fables. Whi...

regardless, it's still the best way to play Sony's exclusives. 1X isn't even the best place to play MS's exclusives, let alone 3rd party multi-plats. Your logic is already flawed.

congrats you're beginning to understand what multiplatform means! Two gold stars and no homework tonight!

agree with your assessment of the Vita. But the Switch is NOT a console. It's a handheld. Why?

A) It's portable. Consoles are a static platform. They can be moved but not when playing software.
B) It has the form factor of a 7" tablet.
C) Uses traditional SD cards as media format

What did Terrelle Owens say again? "If it looks like a rat, smells like a rat, and eats like one, then by golly it is a rat".
