"harges registration fees and fines for games that are too adult?"
Not sure where you're getting that from?. You mean fines on publishers or something?

As for banning games. Yes they are fairly archaic and a very out of touch review board but 'banning' hasn't really worked for years now with the introduction of digital games and imports.

@fonger08
To my knowledge there were no changes made to gun control laws in Australia following the NZ shooting.

How do you all enforce the licensing for reason?
Guns are put into catagories, some of which are only available to law enforcement, military, security etc.
Most rifles are for sports and hunting which have rules on how they need to be stored for safety and ensure they are not stolen along with having magazine or bullet capacity restrict...

Some wimp is down voting mention of a PC port, because I guess in their head a PC version would somehow diminish their own version. Either that or their just morons that think more sales outside of their preferred platform is bad.

"a mobile KOTOR II port, fan-made, already in Alpha and releasing soon."

No, it won't. We've seen this time and time again. You cannot publish other companies IP without their approval. This will be dead in the water the second Disney hears of it.

Only 50 people? Seems fairly average for such a large company. If anyone has been through a company restructure before, middle management and office staff layoffs are pretty common. This seems pretty normal.

I see people asking what you're talking about but I think the ads may be regional. In Aus the main dashboard usually has a quick link to gamepass and maybe 1 thing to show a new release and that's it. Much like windows 10, I have heard some things that make me think it's much worse there for adverts than other places.

I saw on reddit people complaining that on windows 10 they had adverts and all these games installed and such. On mine, including my new comp last...

I think EA still holds the crown with there editions but also then with a layer of laumch gating. 7 day early access for gold, 3 day for silver etc

I know, I didn't properly get my point across but that's what I was getting at. There's a ton of unreal engine portoflio work that artist and designers do for showcases and people see them and say "Fan remake" when it's not, and those that are, as you said it's a copyright and IP law issue.

you can find just googling:
- "Someone is recreating Star Wars: Dark Forces... in Unreal Engine 4"
- "The Legend of Zelda: ...

This. Every time without fail.
Every slow news day there's a site that will throw out a "Star Citizen's Crowdfunding Total Passes (x) Million Dollars".
Then like clockwork you can cue the original comments of "More like Scam citizen! Right guys?"

I don't see why people care that the fans like what they like and get upset. I'm guessing those that get upset must be very young to care about something so trivial.

Fans are working on a cool tech demo to showcase their ability for their portfolio.

Seems monthly we get someone make something in unreal engine and it's labed as "someone is making a remake" and they never reach the light of day.

I played. Killed that monitor dude. Ran dungeons and shit while I had a month free origin pass. Game was pure trash. Glad I didn't have to spend a dollar on it.

>"And why should the industry, or gamers, tip toe around because some other forms of media or people want to try and bring gaming down?
IMO, doing that just gives credence to the notion that gaming shouldn't be taken seriously."

Exactly this. That's what this whole article is about. That's exactly what she's saying to not accept and how old media has a bias.

I get everyones sick of the SJW stuff but read the article first before jumping to a conclusion.

Shes talking about how the WHO are looking at classifying gaming addiction a disorder because it's fun amd then talks abot how old media drag gaming through the mud (games = violence etc) when they have no context of the gaming sphere at all.

She says because the rise in gaming popularity being "new" causes old media to point to gaming as an eas...

TLDR for the headline readers.
Game developers often use third parties for added support and fresh ideas. 343 will be working with Sperasoft who are helping with some concept art and animation work. They work with multiple studios with Bioware just being 1 of them.

From their own site: "Sperasoft contributed to art and produced high profile assets including spaceships, spaceship upres models for cinematic trailers and in-game event scenes, props, weapons, arm...

What a terrible nonsensical take. You even used a twitter post to support the position that is literally itself next to nothing as well. People care about interesting stories mixed with fun gameplay. If the character is poorly written then it wouldn't matter if they were a disabled Ethiopian female because a bad character is a bad character regardless of sex or race.

Stop being sexist and racist in order to argue something being sexist and racist. No ones buying what yo...

16 is the age of consent not just in the states but in a lot of countries. Doesn't mean people still won't get grossed out by it. It's to be expected.

As a side note on age laws. Same goes for drinking ages, 21 for America seems crazy to me.
