Digital distribution has allowed self publishing and in general just made it easier for everyone to get their games out there, which means more people making games, which results in a lot of diversity in games. It may not look diverse if we focus only on the AAA games, but there is huge diversity once you step out of Read more

This isn't a glorified Google Earth. It doesn't re-create any city, it just roughly recreates geography, very roughly. Read more

Either standards are really low for Owen or he wasn't being serious. Read more

I just rewatched the original and notice how the models and everything else aren't all that good. The original was awesome for the idea, but I like the execution on this one better. Not only because of the bad CGI on the first but also for the small differences in each scene, this one comes out better. It just doesn't Read more

For one I think it's unlikely a company would want to troll users. Users may have felt trolled but it makes no sense for the company to actually want to do that. Second thing is that expenses are optional, the game is still free, and even if someone bought early access at $40 that's still a load of new content based Read more

In a response to our story on KJRH, we've been labeled " clueless ghost hunters" by Jason Joe Wayne Blevins ...personally, I take no offense, as he is focused only on one thing, the chalk board. At NO TIME did I or any member of my team make any claims as to a paranormal cause, only that the time and placement of this Read more

I don't play DOTA2 so I'm not the most well informed person on the subject but for me it's hard to sympathize with players who are unsatisfied. The game is free and apparently gets enough new content that just 4 months of nothing is a bad thing. So for that to be a thing that piles up and creates dissatisfaction, I Read more

Do you really think so? Do you think they say good things about me to their friends? Do you think Full Throttle wasn't laughing at me? Read more

That's a lot of confidence to put on random strangers just because they did a DDOS attack. At the very least don't immediately assume ExtraLife is hiding something. Read more

You know technically everything you see on a screen are pixels. I think your argument is silly, not for what I just said there about everything being pixels. I mean, who cares if they're pixels man? They're communicating something and I'm sure you understanding how information can upset people. Read more

My problem with games like this is that I'll do something that I know will fail just because I want to see every animation, so then I feel like the game thinks I'm stupid and I don't like that, I want the game to have a good opinion of me. Read more

They also started something new to separate their Origin gaming service from more successful rival Steam: "We're also the only company that I know of that has the Great Game Guarantee on the digital store. You don't like the game, you can return it. I think that's a great value proposition. Again, it makes it feel Read more

Movie called Police Story 2013. Few seconds in Jackie nonchalantly draws a gun and shoots a guy in the head.

Eh, I liked wandering around the game as much if not more than in FO3. They're different though. FO3 is like wherever you go there's this little quest waiting for you. That's cool and all, when I came across the Gary vault it was pretty cool. Read more

I don't think they've been getting shorter man. 2D days, games were super short save for some RPGs. It's just that we took forever to beat them because we died a billion times. Still, forever was like one afternoon. On computer, games weren't all that long either, once again save for a few genres. PS1 and N64 days, Read more

There is a problem with video game writing and we all know it. No-one seems to have any real idea what the solution is. That's okay, that's fine. We can live with this. Video games are interesting for a different, non-specific, set of reasons. The video game is a broad and beautiful thing. It defies definition and Read more

Isn't that how people generally talk about restrictions though? A restriction is imposed on you, you suffer a restriction. Doesn't mean people are suffering in the sense of feeling pain and sadness, it's just how we talk about restrictions. At least that's the verb I've always used. Read more

Some people just don't like having to install two different clients. I personally don't mind, it's hardly a big deal. However Uplay has mostly annoyed me, causing installation and cloud saving issues that were completely unnecessary. Read more

You gotta think the whole process though. You were first in the airport just waiting for your flight, doing nothing, you decide to play. Then they start calling people in, you board the plane, still you sit there for a long ass time just waiting for it to take off, all this time you're playing. Read more
