Uhhh, do they really need to do this again?

Whatever the truth is, it looks bad, especially when PS4 is very close to hitting 20 million within the next few months.Follow the money...

still seems weird with the acutal offerings game-wise for ps4. guess a little good pr goes a long way. would have liked to see how things would've been different without the initial flubs by MS. so far they've had the clear edge with first party stuffs.

If you don't care about forza or sunset overdrive or busted ass halo it has nothing though. Binding of isaac is more interesting than all of those to me. By fucking miles.

Not that the PS4 is any better with big games right now, I haven't played it for more than an hour or so in the last couple months. I've played my OG gameboy more than that.

Had two on one side removed when I was 23 or so. Procedure went fine, had to have a lot of stitches, once the painkillers wore off it got annoying, but it wasn't bad. Never used any of the painkillers they gave me for later.

@spraynardtatum: No, they don't have moving parts, instead they have a thin layer of plastic protecting the data etched on an adhesive plastic on the opposite side. Scratching the plastic layer can prevent lasers from reading the data, and scratching the adhesive full on removes the data. This can happen from scratching, pressure or changes in temperature. Source: I used to work buying and selling 20+ year old games.

Did you just use the fact that consoles break down as a reason to keep an even older Playstation 1 around because you might lose the digital data from the Playstation 3? What if the Playstation 1 breaks down? How is console breakage a good reason to rely on physical media?

How much money will you spend throughout the years storing, maintaining and using these products compared to making a 5-6 dollar purchase on whatever system to play it when you want to? How many times will your massive box of older games be carried by movers, having never been opened, from house to house?

I think I got a little confused. I'm not saying it's easier to use old hardware, I'm saying the opposite and agreeing with you. I just don't think you should have to pay for games you already own now that we're to a point where it's really easy to verify purchases.

There is still work that needs to be done with the games though. You can't just move a file from the PS3 folder to the PS4 folder on a server and have that shit work. Bandwidth, electricity, upkeep and rnd costs money too. It's far from reasonable to think that the convenience of having all your purchases move over to the next platform should come for free. In fact, I'd go so far as to say it's ludicrous.

We were just about $60 away from Air Force Gator... Then... $300 away.

GAH!

We can still do it though the power of positive thought and selling blood.

Roleplaying games. Good ones, not finalfantasylikes. Infinity engine games, roguelikes, action rpgs like diablo, pretty much like them all.

Adventure games. I taught myself english so I could play leisure suit larry and police quest.

Character action/spectacle fighters/whatever. Bayo, wonderful 101, dmc, metal gear rising, etc etc.

Bayonetta 2 is going to be remembered as one of the best games of this generation and possibly ever made. It's nearly flawless.

Wolfenstein is a fantastic game but it won't go down as one of the best ever.

That'd be like The Kings Speech winning best picture over The Social Network. The Kings Speech is good but it isn't a masterpiece....oh wait...HOW DID THAT HAPPEN!!?

Bayonetta 2's infinite climax difficulty mode is the best action game ever made. Better than infinite non-stop climax in bayonetta 1, better than 101% hard in wonderful 101, and better than revengeance difficulty in MGR. It's a damn crime it didn't win best game.

@villainy: You're not wrong about that. Remember that last year Brad called GTA V's mission design "fucking boring" but this year it was on his top 10 list because it looked better (and I have my doubts that he even finished it). That said, Giantbomb has a very small staff compared to other sites so the lists are always going to be more personal than analytical. Which personally, I am more than fine with.

Last year he was pushing DOTA2. He would have pushed any game under the bus no matter how poorly thought out or untrue the argument for a chance to get that thing on there.

@ubertaco: Not to defend Kotaku, but early January is arguably the driest period of the year for video games. Of course none of the stories on their front page are news, there is no news right now.

Then maybe the whole "a new post every 30 minutes" policy is simply a terrible, terrible idea that guarantees any decent content they produce gets buried under mountains of bullshit?

Personally, RTJ2 by run the jewels 2 and Edward Scissortongue's the therimin are probably the albums of the year.

Polyhymnia by Fliptrix is awesome as well, but I haven't had a lot of time to listen to it yet. It's got a new four owls track though, which is pretty much a lock for my favorite album of 2015, should be out february.

That is the dumbest thing I've ever seen.
Big thanks to everyone involved.
