I didn’t know it was still around. I never had one or even came across one in the wild, so this is more of a useless piece of trivia for me, not that I’m likely to ever come across a trivia question asking when the Stadia was shut down or even how long it lasted.

FNAF isn’t scary

The thing is, this is not the first ever timed console exclusive in the history of games, and it won't be the last, and one would think that a prominent site like Gamerant would be aware of this fact. If timed console exclusivity was detrimental to game sales, I doubt it would be a common practice, regardless of the console it launches on. Devs and publishers need to make money after all, and I'm pretty sure they do their homework before deciding where to release their games and on ...

Phew. Awesome news!

A bit skewed there, guys. I suppose that's true to the site name.

Verses the competition, I think they're doing quite well. I suppose Nintendo has Splatoon 3 coming, but other than that I've been a bit let down by them lately. It's as if most of their good exclusives came out near the start of the Switch's lifespan, and things have slowed down since. I mean, I personally find Strikers to be especially disappointing. Adding Daisy was a great move, ...

You must have been insanely good at arcade games, because I don't think I ever beat a single one back in the day, and there was actually incentive for arcade games to be at least somewhat challenging, just as there was for console games.

In the case of console games such as those on the NES, rentals were affecting sales, so making them more difficult meant they were far less likely to be beaten in a day or two, or even a week, thus increasing the odds that someone would...

Ah, it's another "here are games that do a thing I like, therefore that thing is the future" type article. There's a case to be made that shorter games such as the 3 hour variety focused on here may become more commonplace, but saying something is the future completely ignores the fact that things that don't fit the relevant description will continue to be produced, as well as that things that don't fit that description will continue to be more commonplace than thin...

Their words really, really don't back up their words.

EA said that? I'm assuming they've found there's money in single-player games.

I remember being introduced to the Gameboy version of this on the 3DS and found I surprisingly really enjoyed it. I think I'll definitely check out the arcade version, even though I expect I will get through it in one sitting.

I personally believe there's more prestige in having specific trophies and platinums than there is simply by having a higher count/lvl of trophies and platinums, but maybe that's just me. I would bow down to someone who has the platinum for The Binding of Isaac, or something else of similar difficulty, even if they had a lower trophy lvl than me. Conversely, someone could have a higher trophy lvl than me, but if all their trophies are children's games and linear story-type games...

I blame incompetent parents for that. To be fair, I see age ratings as more of a guideline than a restriction, and if an informed parent were to assess that their kid is mature enough to handle certain content, even if it's technically for an older age group, especially if they're ten or older, then I for one think that's ok. Of course, that would involve at least a basic understanding of what one's kids are playing, and it seems few parents want to take the time necessary t...

I never got to play the original so I’m definitely interested.

It has to do with fault lines where they’re situated. They just happen to be in an area that’s especially seismically active.

I hope so. I never got to play it, but it looks interesting.

Hopefully not. I for one will fight such a future, and will make my exit if it should ever come to pass.

Does that apply to the PSP as well? If so, that's the end of me enjoying region-locked content. It's not a ton, mind you, and I was resigned to the possibility of this happening one day. Thankfully I made sure to more or less future-proof my PSP and Vita by investing in as much memory as possible and downloading and transferring over as much as I could when I had the chance. Still...not a good move Sony.

Actually, I was thinking of the Twisted Metal games. I’m imagining those with online multiplayer, and now I’m stoked!

In all fairness, putting a cap on my subscriptions is how I approach all services. I only pay for them when there's something I want from them, and immediately unsubscribe so I only get the month or however long I paid for. If there are movies and tv shows I want to watch for example, I'll check out a service for that. Moreover, I won't just sign up for a month because there's one thing I want to check out. I usually save my sporadic subscriptions for when I can consume a ...
