Lol. "They'll never shut down the PSN." Tell that to the imminent closure of PS3, PS Vita, and PSP storefronts, basically erasing thousands of games from history as well as making it impossible for people interested in the platforms to be able to pick up any games on the service in physical form for cheap.
With every single BR I hear about for an established game, I think, "Meh, that won't be a good fit." And I've been wrong every single time. Forza Horizon 4? Great. Tetris 99? Amazing. Super Mario 35? Great. Pac Man 99? Amazing.
What I'm trying to say is that I couldn't think of a game that I think will be good, but it seems like it could work for most things. So let's do Ducktales 99, heck yeah! "Pogo Master"
Chief People Officer... that's an interesting job title!
As someone that just bought a physical copy of Barbie and Her Sisters: Puppy Rescue for PC, I find your comment truly appalling and shortsighted.
This is kind of sad, being a subscriber since the service premiered in 2002. The name is classic! But I understand that company decisions tend not to rely on the sentimentality of their customers, so it's all right.
When you think about it, Xbox Live is kind of a weird name anyways. I think it's like the Wii. At a certain point, we just stopped thinking of it as a weird name and just accepted it as part of the vernacular of social discourse.
Super Mario Bros. has technically been in 6 console generations: NES, SNES, Gamecube (through Animal Crossing), Wii, Wii U, Switch. Shadow of the Colossus was on 3 generations: PS2, PS3, PS4. Resident Evil 4 has been on loads of consoles: Gamecube, PS2, PS3, PS4, Wii (plus Xbox 360, Xbox One). REmake was on Gamecube, Wii (through New Play Control), PS3, PS4.
There are loads of games that have been through 3 generations or more. I didn't even scratch the surface.
Your mom rolls off my tongue.
I'm not really on board with this story. It sounds too elaborate.
I think the first game is the only one where I actually love all the locations. Usually I only truly love the first big area (Mansion in RE Zero, RPD in 2, etc.), and the other ones leave something to be desired. But the first game is perfect in that there is literally no area I dislike. Spencer Mansion is perfect, the old house down the way is perfect, the lab is perfect... I don't know. Something about RE1 (specifically REmake) helps it endure all these years later, and I think my l...
This is kind of misleading, I think. It's not open-world like GTA, but it is still "an open-ended structure so the player has full freedom to tackle different objectives." To me, open-world is sometimes used to describe that, too - perhaps erroneously. But that still sounds really neat.
I'm not liking the sound of random enemy encounters. That makes me worry it will feel like Destiny, and I got really tired of that stuff.
No dual-wie...
Oooo, Lisa Trevor doesn't like that.
Japan's censorship stuff is so strange. Censor genitals in pornography, but have some of the most twisted pornography out there... Not that I would know.
I'm getting concerned that Josef is going down the same path that consumes many developers with unique ideas: more ambition, more perceived influence on gaming, more ego, utter crash. Just look at Peter Molyneux and Cliffy B.
I don't mind 30 fps if it's locked and consistent. But once it dips even once, the illusion is broken. I always prefer 60 (I know I'm a peasant as I have yet to experience the glory of 120 fps or higher, please don't attack me in this difficult time of realization), but consistency is key.
They're becoming more and more like Disney every day. A company that's enormously successful and makes amazing products and entertainment, but one that is overtly greedy and bizarrely opaque about their intentions. All under the guise of "a magical experience that everyone of all ages can enjoy."
It was an unfortunate wake-up call when I, as a Disney superfan, read about their business practices. And it's becoming more discouraging that Nintendo has...

To clarify, the (intended to be sarcastic) statement about the comment aging well was for my comment, not yours.
In my experience, if everyone knows something will be "limited," that item does not go up in price much when it depletes. It's usually the stuff no one expects that goes up in price. Hello Kitty Cruisers on the Wii U is a good example. It's worth a lot of money, but who would have thought that to be the case? Then again, Halo 2 Limited Edition seems to actually be the most common one to find on eBay and Amazon, and you can get it for peanuts.
If this g...
Square Enix's treatment of the Avengers game solidified them as just as chuckleheaded as any other company. They also produced The Quiet Man, which was an abject failure in every sense of the word. And let's not even mention their original vision for Final Fantasy XIV. They eventually turned it around completely, but the way it was handled prior to that, in addition to these other examples, should demonstrate that they are not a perfect company at all. They make a lot of mistakes. ...
I don't know. One space Kingdom Hearts hasn't gone into is VR. So I'm fully expecting them to release a Kingdom Hearts game specifically for a niche VR headset that no one has yet. And it's, hilariously, going to be the one game that ties everything together in the way Kingdom Hearts III was meant to. But this time around, it will ACTUALLY be a conclusion, instead of adding tons of questions.
Sunset Overdrive is so underrated. I love it so much.
