Dreamcast doesn't seem to get much love in from Sega. It's. Real shame.

See I'd love that but Sony might have a really hard time getting third party developers on board

As said in the article, we fully anticipate Nintendo will do the SNES next. For me though, the SNES was slightly before my time; so harder to get nostalgic over it.

But you better believe I'd buy the heck out of a SNES one too.

It makes sense, if nothing else so we get a fresh stock of N64 controllers. Those things were easy to break during Mario Party sessions.

We live in hope if nothing else :D

The issue comes when the industry follows trends Trends like the online passes. Trends like season passes. Trends like cutting out content from the main game to sell it back as DLC.

Why be so petty over such trivial amounts? Did EA really need to charge people $10 to take a game they bought online if they didn't have the code? Of course they didn't. They just wanted more money. It was a self-serving move that benefited no one but the board members at EA. Do companie...

Not really. I think the Xbox One S has been given a hard time by gamers who are looking at the wrong aspects when discussing it.

Exactly. Micorsoft has already assured gamers that games will work across all consoles.

Unless people are that desperate to play in 4K 60FPS, the argument for buying a Scorpio is reduced incredibly.

But if said gamers aren't investing in a 4K TV, there's little point in investing in the Scorpio. The Scorpio's market is already tied to the uptake of 4K televisions, which in itself creates problems because Microsoft is relying on that uptake to increase. The Xbox One S will become the entry point for the Xbox brand - will upscale to 4K and play the exact same catalogue of games (Unless Microsoft has been lying to us). Put simply - why would someone who isn't going to invest...

It would make sense for Sony to release a "slim" console variant at some stage which sports 4K upscaling also. Right now the PS4 doesn't do that out the box, relying on TV-side upscaling (Which is notably less kind to video games)

I don't really understand your logic here. It's an opinion piece, labelled as such and offers an opinion on a topic from gaming. What else is the "Opinion" tab for?

Transparency is the biggest hurdle to journalists being accepted as competent.

Hi Avalanche Studios.

A. We paid £40 for your game.

People win skins in game. Steams backend allows those users to take those skins to a third party website and gamble them using their Steam ID.

The issue is that Valve allows this with 'gambling' - which on Steam also includes a heap of under 18's. In the US gambling online is a huge no-no but Valve in the past has said it doesn't define this as gambling - even though it really is.

Basically Valve has allowed this shady market to pop up wi...

Steam is far and away the biggest player in the PC space. There's no danger of Microsoft ever catching them up. Even Microsoft's biggest fanboys would concede that Valve's grip on PC gaming is pretty ironclad at this stage.

What's the point in having a gatekeeper if they don't stop junk like half-baked games, fake projects and gambling industries from taking advantage of users? The whole point of having a walled garden like Steam is so there's standards. So why isn't Valve enforcing those standards?

I'm not arguing that it will diminish their hold on PC gaming. But the point is, this isn't the first major self-inflicted hiccup Valve have suffered and probably won't be the last.

They seem determined to make life hard for themselves.
