Discussion Steam fanboys already whipping up outrage and planning to boycott Ghost of Tsushima on PC due to PSN requirements
Here's to a couple of years of intense aggression against Sony, followed by Sony realizing it's a waste of time putting games on Steam, followed by another decade of Steam players berating Sony for not putting games on Steam "for no reason". -
Playstation Phil Spencer on what the hell is happening in the games industry, exclusives becoming a risky business & lack of growth in industry leading to layoffs
Man if there's one thing that pisses me right the fuck off is this weak fake as all hell PR talk. I see right through it. You mean the "friends" that you laid off, Phil? The people whose offices you waltzed into flashing that shitty plastic smile, the hands you shook? The jokes about how... -
Discussion How is Emulation supposed to be "Game Preservation"?
Emulating isn't preservation. Preservation is preservation. Games preservation in the sense that a ROM / ISO of a game is stored digitally is a nice little side-effect of the emulation scene. The emulation scene was not created for the purpose of preserving anything, it was created to play... -
News Xbox fanatics social media meltdowns in regards to 3rd party move and other losses |OT| "When fiction meets reality.
I love how all the people crying about game budgets being too high are usually the first ones to burn a developer over the witchfire for mistreatment of employees, and layoffs. Like, yes, those things are bad, but what do you think happens to employees when a company downsizes? The vast... -
News Xbox Era still claim Microsoft is planning Starfield PS5 launch. |UP| Insider says coming to PS5 in Nov/Dec. Other ips as well.
Lmao, yep. Speaking from experience here, publishers aren't stupid, they often layer information that they present to their tiers of employees, and it really isn't easy at all to get away with leaking things because the company -- ESPECIALLY companies as big as Microsoft -- absolutely have a...- Yeona

Discussion Propaganda pushed by Microsoft intensifies as industry so-called "figures of authority" regurgitate Phil Spencer's takes
It's borderline clinically delusional, this kumbaya myth where there is a world where all console manufacturers just share their bespoke software with one another, and everyone is loyal to everyone else, and nobody drastically undercuts anyone else. Everyone produces the level of hardware they... -
Discussion The Jimquisition's review of Helldivers 2 proves that the supposed "Xbox Tax" is, in fact, a Sony Tax
Fellas, far from me to moderate anything because I'm nobody here but Sterling goes by she. We can call someone a fucking idiot or just outright incompetent in their games analysis -- both of which Stephanie absolutely is -- and still respect the basics of their identity. Can we try to be a bit... -
Discussion What would be your platform of choice in a hypothetical future without exclusives?
In a hypothetical future where there's no exclusives, we'd have to imagine all consoles can run the exact same software. Creating a better console, with more bespoke features or higher-end components scares developers away from multiplatform games, as it makes developing a game for multiple... -
News FFVII Rebirth Dev Team Aimed To Get Review Scores Above 90, Director Shares Celebration Message. |UP| "close to 30 minigames" very in depth card game
I expect a lot of dudes don't understand how tits work, but they haven't been enlarged whatsoever. It's just her normal clothes bind them a lot better since they're sports oriented, and the cleavage is a lot smaller. The size is the same, and the bikini pull them a bit closer together so they... -
Discussion Sarah Bond “Every screen is an Xbox" in private Future of xbox internal meeting |UP| Phil doubles down on this vision.
I like how they're not even pretending anymore. Proclaiming loud and clear: Yes, we are an imperialistic megacorp, and we want to take over Fucking Everything. And we will spend as much money as humanly imaginable so that engaging with our product is literally unavoidable to every single... -
News The Pokémon Company statement on Palworld, intend to investigate, take measures. |UP| Nintendo President makes statement, plan to take action.
But you see, fortunately for Nintendo, they aren't going to court in corporate America against an anarchocapitalist megacorp that has subsisted the past few decades on almost nothing but historically aggressive lobbying. Also, Japan's Article 18-4 notes that «During the course of the... -
News Microsoft removes Xbox branding on official websites and promotional material
It feels strange because we know for a fact that there's that mid-gen refresh from the court documentation. The "adorably all digital" thing. If they are planning on changing the page to include that console as well, I guess it would make sense to distinguish it to "console(S)" plural. But then... -
Rumor ImHeroToo (Persona leaker): Bloodborne Remake is being planned for PS6
Right. About this guy, and DuskGolem, and all the other people who've found a phenomenal calling as Clout Merchants on the Internet: As someone who has signed dozens and dozens of NDAs while working for Blizzard over the course of the better part of a decade, I'm just going to say this: This is... -
Nintendo PalWorld is being indirectly censored In Japan by Nintendo
I don't mean to be mean or anything, but based on their prior works, Pocket Pair are not in this business for the longterm brand building. Aside from potential legal issues which may never even materialise, the most immediate consequence for them is other japanese companies potentially valuing... -
News JP Games announces ‘cutting-edge RPG for adults’ SHALLAH
I guess it depends on what he means by "adult". If it's like tits and sex everywhere, I find that more pre-pubescent than adult, and japanese games are by and large already filled with that anyway. If he means actually mature themes, then sign me up.
