    Screenshot 1 is a straight up troll here. In general I think this was a hard one and this is a game I really want to play so I've paid some attention to. #GuessTheGame #674šŸŽ® šŸŸ„ šŸŸ„ šŸŸ© ā¬œ ā¬œ ā¬œ#VisualVirtuos...

    The EXTREME zoom in for the first two screenshots here is downright unfair. Like, yes, if you zoom in far enough everything is low resolution and looks weird. And the stats back me up. THE STATS BACK ...

  • bigsocrates posted a message in the forum topic What are the ESSENTIAL games on the PS5 so far, and coming up?. on the PlayStation 5 board

    I would say almost nothing. Most of the games I have loved on PS5 were cross gen. Assuming you've played Ragnarok and Forbidden West on PS4 (or don't want to) and that you don't have a Series X or a ...

    @chamurai: Is what it's gamifying really an activity? There are weight loss apps that give you badges and achievements for things like weighing in every day for a month or drinking enough water. Are t...

  • bigsocrates posted a message in the forum topic How did one of the best developers of all time get so lazy?. on the Valve Corporation board

    @retris: From all appearances Valve is extremely healthy as a company and makes a lot of money. Steam remains dominant despite several very well funded challengers. The Steam Deck is an enormous hit. ...

    Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle and the satisfaction of finally finishing an old game

    Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle is one of those delightful experiments that seem to happen most often at the beginning of a consoleā€™s lifecycle. The pitch of ā€œMario with guns in an Xcom-lite gameā€ was ...

  • bigsocrates posted a message in the forum topic Is this game vaporware?. on the Hollow Knight: Silksong board

    It'll come out. This is not the first small team game to get delayed over and over. Cuphead came out and it was great despite all the delays.The issue here is that you have a team with a lot of passi...

  • bigsocrates posted a message in the forum topic Zaslav Strikes Games! You (Likely) Only Have 60 Days To Buy Most Of Adult Swims Games' Stuff Before They Get Delisted. on the Adult Swim Games board

    @shindig: I think Headlander is pretty notable. It's a Doublefine game and that's a mid-major studio. It also reviewed well. I'm surprised WB wouldn't sell the rights back to Microsoft rather than del...

    @cikame: They probably do see it as a bet. They don't understand it's a lot more like poker than roulette (in that even if you do things perfectly you can still flop, but there's a lot of skill involv...

    An astonishing loss. An icon and a titan in the anime and gaming spaces. Processing this and his legacy is going to take a long time. He wasn't super young but he wasn't very old either, and this see...

    This just reads like a complete asshole who is much better at telling investors what they want to hear than at actually running a gaming division. "Hogwarts Legacy was a massive success. How do we tu...

    Update. I woke up early this morning and played some of The Crew, which I am trying to finish before the servers shut down at the end of the month. So my new answer is "The Crew."

    @chamurai: huniepop hmm?Looks like someone is taking their guess the game research to extremes. Gotta memorize every pixel.Iā€™m the same way with Cho Aniki.

    @spacemanspiff00: Well I've played Balatro at 4 AM too. But runs in that game can take a long time and if you're doing well it can be hard to stop (even though it has an excellent mid-run save system)...
