An overlay to access PlayStation features seems like a good idea. A lot better than the separate launcher I’ve seen people speculating about.

The trilogy desperately needs a modern rerelease, preferably one that isn’t just a remaster of the PS3 release. It sucks that the best way to play them is to fire up a PS2 or BC capable PS3.

People offering alternatives that aren’t word-for-word copies of what every dumbass grifter on YouTube is screeching about is not “gaslighting”. Maybe, just maybe, there isn’t some industry wide conspiracy to prevent you from spanking it to...

I have nothing against pre-ordering personally. Though I'm pretty picky on when I do it. I rarely end up regretting a pre-order due to how picky I am. I tend to do it more for the ability to pre-load a game (especially when it comes to consoles)...

Trailer was alright. The over-all world design was great, but the dialog was very average action game affair. Hopefully this ends up like Avatar: FoP, a gorgeous game with solid gameplay that can make up for other-wise lackluster writing...

At one time, the Corsair tax was tolerable because they had excellent support. In the past, I’ve had their reps go out of there way to help me with stuff that they didn’t even need to. I once bought a case from Amazon warehouse and it arrived in...

The endgame is likely to just limp along as much as possible until they’re forced to close up shop. The owner doesn’t want to sell the company so the ship is just going to keep sinking until it’s hit the bottom the ocean.

Game prices varied all over the country from retailer-to-retailer a lot more back then. Though there are plenty of ads floating around from the time with those high prices so they weren't uncommon, at least in some areas. The high prices on a...

Earthbound was $70 when it launched. Chrono Trigger was like $80. Anything on the SNES that was released on a larger cart or had a cart that contained something special like a different audio chip or the SuperFX chip would cost a lot more than...

Even then, it's kind of nebulous and really depends on the end product. Comic book media is filled with both good and bad examples.

You should find a new hobby then. If you can’t handle that non-white people exist maybe you should go hide in a hole for the rest of your life and never interact with humanity again.

So go a head and do it instead of shitting on the work the others. Regardless of the end result performance wise, this is still an impressive feat for modders to do. Also, it's not just about the resulting performance. Modders tend to do this...

Other way around. The PC port of Last of Us was primarily done in-house by Naughty Dog with some consulting from Iron Galaxy. IG then stepped in to help try and fix issues with it.

This is one of the weakest attempts to fix a live-service game I've seen since Anthem. None of the new character models look good, most of the costumes look like ass. This is a real "putting lipstick on a pig" situation.

The fuck are you talking about? Not that it makes much difference but all the footage is rendered in-engine in real time. There were a couple snippets of what might have been gameplay elements in there, but hard to say. Hopefully we get a full...

Having played through this now.. it feels like a really good Doom wad file collection set in the star wars universe. It's pretty fun but I wish they had removed the sprites and gone all 3D... this as a great Quake 2 mod would have been way better...

In the US, there is no legal requirement for refunds of digital goods. Sony started offering refunds after tons of pressure from consumers and the media. There are legal requirements in countries that actually give a fuck about consumer rights...

If you're already familiar with the story of FF7, just read a summery of Crisis Core's plot. Reunion is significantly better than the PSP original, but it's mostly a core gameplay improvement. I don't think it's worth playing if you're going in...

I'd venture a guess this would be what they're referring to. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GSC_Game_World#Russian_invasion_of_Ukraine

To be fair, you can’t really blame them for the delays in the last couple years.
