I don’t think we’ll do an E3 get-together this year, but if you’re going to PAX West and you’re a fan of Splitscreen, stay tuned... Read more

You’re very welcome! Read more
Very, very different. Most of the focus is on playing games and meetings. No panels or anything like that. Read more
I actually did write that but Stephen cut it, probably because he wants a smellier E3 for everyone. Read more
It’s safe to assume there’ll be a big showcase at Sony’s E3 presser, with some gameplay and probably a “first on PS4!” beta that launches in June/July. Read more
Doubt it, because consoles are 30FPS while PC is uncapped. Would be pretty unfair! Read more
Now playing
It’s not a stretch. Here’s just one example.
My two biggest complaints (other than the technical issues) were that the combat got really simple/repetitive and that too many jokes and scenes were copied directly from the TV show. From what I hear, the developers brought both of those up as issues to address in this one. So I’m very stoked. Read more
That was Human Head’s Prey 2. Totally different game. Read more
Yeah, their process for the show (finishing each episode literally hours before it airs) likely does not translate well to video game production. I remember hearing once that Stick of Truth had enough cut content to fill an entire second game. Read more
I imagine one of the reasons is that South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone like to rewrite a lot. Read more

Have fun! Wear comfortable shoes, drink lots of water, and don’t wait on line for demos that’ll be on YouTube in a few days anyway. Read more
Ah yes, we definitely have not gotten enough teasers and vague quotes about that game. Read more
No. Read more
Well yes, of course, but what I mean is that a “4/10" is meaningless in this context, because nothing about “4/10" signals that the reviewer enjoyed the game but wasn’t able to finish it because of a bug. It’s just a random number. The text of IGN’s review is useful to readers, but if you’re just scanning for scores… Read more
Yeah, seems like it was just a beta update? I’d be curious to hear from anyone who experienced the bug - did this fix it for you? Read more
You can read more about this in BLOOD, SWEAT, AND PIXELS, coming Sept 5 (is this shilling working yet?) but the short version is that they came up with the Inquisition and some other ideas for DAI right after shipping Origins, then EA asked them to make a new DA in a very short timeframe, so they put aside Inquisition… Read more
Eventually! Read more
