    Horizon Forbidden West

    Probably next year, at the earliest. Sounds like Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart will be the next PS5 title that hits PC, assuming the rumors are right. I'd love to get Demon's Souls after that or Ghosts of Tsushima.

    GameStop Stock keeps going up no end in sight

    There are somehow two in my area, though I doubt there will be for too much longer. Stock at them both has been pretty rough for a while now. Doesn’t seem like they’re being well supplied since neither ever seems all that busy.

    Raja Koduri Leaving Intel

    What mass media? The news comes straight from Intel. Pat is the CEO of Intel. It’s still possible that he was “asked” to step down, but you usually don’t get the head of a huge company publicly announced a departure on Twitter when there is animosity.

    Gotham Knights

    Performance is good and that price seems fine for the game. I'd recommend playing co-op with another person though, the game doesn't hold up super well by yourself.

    Half-Life: Ray Traced

    It's still better than a lot of modern games, dated graphics or not. Doing this with older titles gives RT a chance to really shine (pun entirely intended) and show what's possible when there aren't the performance concerns of current titles. I find the work people are doing with these games...

    Final Fantasy XVI

    XV was really rough on launch. They put a lot of effort into fixing it up. Sadly SE pulled the plug on any further work after Tabata left the company.

    Final Fantasy XVI

    There are a lot of problems with Japanese culture and game development. Lazy, however, is not a term I would apply to them. Bad ports are, almost, always the fault of upper management either not giving the dev team enough support (time, money, people, etc) or pushing the project on a team that...

    Final Fantasy XVI

    SkillUp asked SE if the game was using Luminous or Unreal and was told no to both, but they declined to reveal exactly what the engine was. It's possible that it could be an updated version of Crystal Tools, FF14's engine, or something entirely custom. On its own, art style is not indicative of...

    Atomic Heart

    If the game leaned into the camp and b-grade stuff more, I think it could have worked. Though, it still would have had to be toned down a little and written slightly better. There game is basically eurojank disguised as a AAA title and it can't pick a side between those two.

    Twitter shut off its internal Slack, and now ‘everyone is barely working’

    Twitter’s latency and reliability has been a mess for a while. I’m not sure how much, if any, of that is on Elon’s head. I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of the underlying code of the site is a complete disaster. I’ll agree with Musk being clever. He just jumps into stuff ego first without a...

    Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League (Rocksteady)

    I think the game looks like it could be a fun co-op experience, not sure how it will hold up single player though and I doubt the story will be all that exciting. Pity that this is Kevin Conroy’s final performance. I hope it has couch co-op or, at least, that the Xbox and PC versions can cross...

    Twitter shut off its internal Slack, and now ‘everyone is barely working’

    You going to back up the attitude with proof of him knowing how to run Twitter?

    Atomic Heart

    Between the horrible mouse smoothing, the FOV, and some enemies' animations not running at the same speed as the rest of the game when running at 120fps, this became the first game I ever recall making me motion sick. I got as far as the first skill upgrade station before needing to turn the...

    A New Era Begins at Firaxis Games

    I wouldn't be surprised if these departures were pushed by Take-Two after the failure of Midnight Suns. I don't really have strong feelings on them leaving one way or the other. They were both at the helm with Chimera Squad and Midnight Suns. Getting some different people in charge might not be...

    YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki steps down after nine years at the helm

    If you want to know why social media platforms are gung-ho on this shit go look back at the various adpocolsypse's that have hit YouTube over the years. Corporations don't have moral ideologies, they do whatever is needed to make the most money. If Youtube/Google/Alphabet thought they would make...

    YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki steps down after nine years at the helm

    Twitter has not improved since he took over. It's still a shit show and, in some ways, significantly worse.

    Marvel's Midnight Suns

    Not terribly surprising. There are a lot of good ideas in the game, but it's all marred by some abysmal writing and a game that massively overstays its welcome. If they can get a better writing team built up, I'd love to see what could be done with a sequel. There is potential in the property...

    YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki steps down after nine years at the helm

    That would be a pretty effective way to completely kill YouTube. For as bad as the platform is, that narcissistic manchild would make it infinitely worse.

    YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki steps down after nine years at the helm

    In order for meaningful change I think YouTube’s entire leadership structure needs a shakeup. I’m not sure if just replacing the CEO will do much. The platform has only steadily been getting worse under their current leadership, including the folks on the board of directors. Maybe she was...

    Microsoft's deal to buy Activison/Blizzard for $67 billion, dead?

    Starfield's Playstation version was cancelled after MS bought Bethesda. While not outright stated (yet) it is almost a certainly that Elder Scrolls 6 will be exclusive to Microsoft platforms. The first Outer Worlds title was released on PS4, XB1, PC, and Switch. The sequel is only releasing on...

    Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon (From Software)

    While an amusing comparison, it is easy to forget just how much FS has changed over the years. There really is a pre and post Dark Souls FromSoftware. AC4 also wasn't exactly a smash hit among AC fans either, it was the 12th AC game released within nine years (and the 37th game FS released in...

    Hogwarts Legacy

    Rowling has done a great job watering down and screwing up HP all on her own. The more extended universe stuff she tries to add the more things fall apart. Not to mention the Fantastic Beasts movies....

    Square one again passing the blame

    Yes, yes, we’re all aware of your thoughts. FFVIIR was a AAA game. The first couple reboot games were decent, though I think the first was the better of the two. That said, I’d like to see them go back to the basics of the series.

    Square one again passing the blame

    That's the worst part about all of this. They do release good games! They just also turn around and release some of the worst games at the same time. Their HD-2D titles have all been great, FFVII Remake was excellent, the Crisis Core remaster/remake was solid, and a few others. They are fully...

    Square one again passing the blame

    SqureEnix management has been shit since the merger happened. It's sad really, they'll put put some excellent titles and then almost immediately squander that with some of the biggest pieces of garbage in the industry and then they'll wonder why things don't sell. It's a company in desperate...

    Returnal (Confirmed)

    Just a few years ago, who would have thought that Sony of all companies would be the ones making world-class PC ports of games?

    The Last of Us Part I

    Bummer, but if it leads to better end product I'm all for it. At least it's just a few weeks and not a multi-month delay. The show has me itching to play the game again, but I want to wait for the PC version to do it.

    Hogwarts Legacy

    It's certainly worth being very wary and concerned about the game and the studio's history, but let's remember that WB turned Rocksteady from a shovelware studio into a company that consistently made the best superhero titles for a few years. If WB was willing to invest the resources needed into...

    AMD 7000X3D Prices and release date!

    If performance pans out, I’d totally be interested in either the 7800x3D or the 7900x3D. My 5800x is fine at the moment, but I’d still like a little more CPU power to through at things.

    Apple launched the M2 Pro and the M2 Max

    Unless I’m playing PC games or otherwise have use of my bigger monitor, all of my computer use is on an Apple device, either my iPhone or my MBP. I usually don’t even touch the PC during the week, I get home from work and grab the MacBook.

    The Super Mario Bros Movie - Official Trailer (Teaser)

    Not sure how to feel about that DK voice. The movie is either going to end up being a fun surprise like Sonic or a complete train wreck, no in between.

    Billy Mitchell Now Suing Karl Jobst

    Ah, right. I forgot about the second lawsuit and it didn't show up when I was doing an initial search for Karl's GoFundMe stuff. That said, I doubt Karl making or not making more videos on Mitchell really matters one way or the other now. I can almost guarantee that the fuckwad would have filed...

    You might want to chill the fuck out for a second and actually look at the GoFundMe page. He's not raising any money for himself. It is all going to the other people being sued by Mitchell.

    Billy Mitchell Now Suing Karl Jobst

    There is little doubt that he cheated, especially now that there are pictures of the machine he (very likely) used to get one or both of the scores in question. Even if the DK board in the machine is legit (which is questionable) the fact that the cab itself is modified means his scores are...

    Billy Mitchell Now Suing Karl Jobst

    Karl covers a lot of cheating within the community. While most of it is speedrun related, he has covered high score cheating outside of Mitchell. Your opinion is literally telling people to never talk about shady things rich people do and just let them keep doing shit with no consequences. While...
