    News Black Myth: Wukong has been rated for Xbox Series by ESRB

    I assumed it was already cross platform on Xbox. Well, it's always good when more players have a chance to play a game.

    News Dragon Ball Sparking! ZERO surpasses 3 million copies sold worldwide within 24 hours of release

    I certainly get the cultural influence of DBZ. I just hadn't realized their fighting games had reached this level of adoption. I'd be equally surprised to see a Onepiece or Naruto fighter pull these numbers.

    News Subnautica 2 Announced - Coming Early 2025

    It says they're releasing it into Early Access again, which makes me wonder if they'll be further along in terms of development, or if this will be an equally long development period till full release. The first game was quite good.

    News Sony will increase the PS5 price in South Korea for the second time

    I agree. I think it just goes to show how significant pandemic inflation was, because they probably thought they'd be making these consoles for less over time, not more lol.

    Discussion The AA Problem: Gamers don't want to buy AA games

    The AA vs AAA rating is just an informal grade based on the production costs associated with development. While production costs can be an influence on quality, this is not always the case. The main strategic advantage AA games have is their price point to break even is lower than a AAA game...

    News Sony will increase the PS5 price in South Korea for the second time

    Well, they reportedly only broke even on cost in 2021, when the console was going for $499. My guess is that inflation put them at a point where they would be selling at a loss again. Selling at a loss can make some strategic sense at the beginning of a console generation, because you're...

    Discussion Single Player Gamers - Why do you dislike multiplayer?

    I'm not saying you're wrong, since obviously neither or us can predict the future. That said, I think the externalities associated with aging makes single player games increasingly more attractive. When you're younger, you have synchronized schedules with your friends (school), which makes it...

    Discussion Single Player Gamers - Why do you dislike multiplayer?

    I saw this graphic a while ago, and while some were quick to panic that the "younger generation" preferred MP games, my interpretation of this graph was a positive correlation with age and preference for SP games. In other words, I think it to be generally true that as gamers age, they will...

    Discussion Final Fantasy XVI [OT] Clean Out Your PSClive Boys, We're Going Boss Hunting

    I finished up FFXVI a few weeks back. Really impressed with the game overall. Particularly the cinematic action was on a scale I hadn't experienced from other games. In regards to their side-quest writing, I thought this entry was leaps and bounds above prior FF entries.

    Discussion [Sabine Hossenfelder]I didn't believe AI was the future of coding. I was right.

    Even just keeping track of birthdays is a life changing feature. Never again will I be subjected to the world shattering shame as a discord community wishes me a happy birthday, while I fall to my knees in a walgreens with the realization that I don't know a single other person's birthday.

    Discussion Why do single player gamers like high stakes stories but...

    It seems that players do want high stakes and consequences in their games then. The reason being that people naturally want emotion filled games, which is being conveyed via gameplay. If this is a genre of game that you like, I would suggest you take a look at Darkwood for the holiday season. I...

    Discussion 12 Years and $700 Million Later, What's Going on With Star Citizen's Development?

    I remember reading about this game 12 years ago. It wasn't clear to me what the game was then, and it's still not clear to me now.

    While I respect that you disagree with the examples of games I provided as being punishing games, your OP suggested you were not aware of these titles, or at the very least wanted someone to explain why punishing games are unpopular. I provided these examples to help demonstrate that clearly...

    Discussion I've officially been assimilated into the PlayStation Borg Collective

    Are you split between the three currently, or would this be a move away from PS and Xbox to PC gaming (as a new experience?) If you're considering this decision, what's going to be the deciding factor for you? Price point of the next graphics card, portfolio of next gen console exclusives, etc?

    News Study finds that kids that game in PlayStation go on to earn more when they are adults.

    This story speaks to me, because as a PC gamer I live a life of destitution, turning tricks beneath the local underpass all for the honor of playing the Horizon Zero Dawn Remaster on PC.

    News Andy Serkis, Ben Starr, Jennifer English, and Charlie Cox join the cast of The Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.

    I think this is a pretty good cast for a first game from a new studio.
