Hahaha we meant that we want them to invite us to their studio, not that we want them to pay for us. Kotaku has a very strong and consistent anti-press junket policy, and in fact, I’ve been doing this for 10 years now and have never accepted paid travel from a game company in my life. Although I will confess that somet… Read more

NOTE: I appreciate all your feedback and have changed the headline from “Days Gone Is One AAA-Ass Video Game” to avoid confusion, even though it sure is a triple-A-ass video game. Read more
Fair! Read more
Horizon is incredible! If Days Gone can get even close to those heights, I’ll be stoked. But from what I’ve played so far, shooting zombies and bandits in Days Gone doesn’t really compare to firing arrows at robot dinosaurs in HZD. Read more
It’s not an “ass” game, it’s a “triple-A-ass” game. In this case, “-ass” is a suffix that enhances the adjective “triple-A.” Put another way: It’s the most triple-A possible. Read more
Why would “AAA-Ass” be a bad thing? Read more
Yeah, Forsaken is the beginning of Year Two, and then the annual pass gets you all of the content updates (like the Forge stuff from December and the Gambit stuff that’s just starting up now). Read more
I think it was really designed for people like me, who wanted to switch from PS4 to PC when Forsaken came out but didn’t want to take a fresh character through the whole campaign again just to see the new stuff. It’s more for lapsed or platform-switching players than it is for brand new ones. If you’re brand new to… Read more
It’s funny - I know that they’ve said that, but I tend to be superstitious when it comes to Destiny, so I always wind up wearing the highest-level gear when I’m turning in rewards anyway just in case something’s bugged. (Plus, if you’re doing high-level activities like the new Reckoning mode, your power level is taken… Read more
This isn’t really true. You can just wear the blues until you get powerful rewards, which are not hard to get and will start dropping at 640+ once your average power level is 640. You can be back to all purple stuff within minutes. Read more
At GDC in two weeks, Google is holding a big keynote where it’ll reveal the full version of Project Stream. Maddy and I will be there, so keep an eye out for our coverage both on the site and on the podcast! Read more

Yessss Dark Souls 3 is next up for sure. Read more
I know it’s not exactly a high bar, but many video game executives don’t even bother to pretend to play games. Reggie had a Dragon Quest IX save with like 100 hours in it. Read more
I just want to clarify that on this very same podcast, former BioWare boss Aaryn Flynn told us that it was his decision to switch to Frostbite for DA: Inquisition: https://kotaku.com/former-bioware-studio-head-talks-about-life-under-ea-1823969303 Read more
I remember an E3 event a few years ago where Reggie was sitting a few rows away from me, just playing 3DS like the rest of us schlubs. Read more
All of the above? I have my OS installed on an SDD and games on my much bigger HDD, but most games (including Destiny 2) are super fast. Here’s hoping the day-one (day-seven) patch makes things better. Read more
Have they actually said that somewhere or is that just a fan theory? Read more
Yeah, I tried to play the PC port of Final Fantasy IV a few months ago and the battles ran at a locked 15 frames per second. And obviously the FFV/FFVI ports look atrocious to anyone who’s played the originals. I just don’t understand what they’re doing over there. Read more
