That “discount” was the final straw for me. What’s funny is, they even undervalued their own subscription for that “discount.”

If you look at the bottom, it tells you that the discount is $.05/day remaining. That makes the $20 service valued at $18.25.

Even when they’re screwing you, they’re screwing you. Screwception. Read more

It’s also been confirmed that GTA: San Andreas will be available on day one on Xbox Game Pass Read more

Interesting. I didn’t know this was influencing other countries. Bummer.

A little clarification: The system of age restriction and “the approach to bloody content in games” is not “extremely draconian” anymore. That’s not because it has been eased. As far as I know, it hasn’t. But the criterias and the reception of… Read more

This is making me miss the truly bizarre moment in time when Nintendo actually used VHS teasers that were sent directly to Nintendo Power subscribers:

Emulator or no, this game is really really good. A few times throughout my life, I’ve thought I’d ‘outgrown’ video games. I just couldn’t keep interested in anything I tried.

I have put dozens of hours into both Subnautica games, but I agree with pretty much every criticism you have with Breathegde — the “humour” is extremely tiresome, the suit never stops talking and it talks so quickly you can’t really understand it anyways. Things in general are not very intuitive, in the early game you… Read more

I have long believed that Sir Clive was one of the most influential people in gaming history, but seeing the evidence you lay out makes me certain of it, especially when it comes to the European branch of game developers. Read more

I’ve always thought that match-3 was an under-appreciated genre, thanks to the mass of poorly done mobile offerings. Pair some tight match-3 game play with a compelling, engrossing story? You’ve sold me. Purchased. Read more

Skatebird, not to be confused with Snakebird. Read more

For me I think it’s movement. Spiders that are chilling off in a corner and not sneaking to somewhere to scare the shit out of me are fine. Got a house full of cellar spiders and they kill any flies and mosquitoes that manage to make it in, and they just chill up high in a corner somewhere.

Tarantulas don’t bug me… Read more
