Eugh, I just experienced how crapped up it is first hand. It stutters every time it has to load something is what it seems like, and then just dips the framerate whenever you do anything. I didn't have AS BAD a time as some other folks, especially if I ran everything at the lowest settings. I've got an AMD card (R9 280), but it also sounds like a large number of Nvidia users are reporting the same problems, which is not good. I'd imagine that they're going to dump a patch here pretty quick or else they're going to be issuing quite a few refunds.

I'll play Asylum to tide me by. I paid 35 bucks for this on Green Man Gaming, so I'll just have to wait it out.

I reached immediately for this video upon finishing the article. Make of that what you will.

(It was a very good read, by the way.)

Thank you for using that image. Thank you so much.

There were only two games that could make me get an Xbox One. This was the second of the two.

Side note, I seriously thought that that screenshot at the top was of Horizon 2, I keep forgetting how good Horizon looked.

The single most accurate description of this website ever written.

Agree with the sentiment but maybe not the presented execution. Steam Sales have become a bit too much of a thing and they probably should ease up a bit, but the only reason they've gotten this big is because gamers have been getting priced out of games. I can't afford to spend 40 - 60 dollars on a game at launch or anytime really and while setting the price at maybe twenty and going up from there sounds good, it stops being so once you realize that it's going to keep people who couldn't afford it when it was cheap from affording it later when it's expensive. There is a problem with the way people get games (it's not a new thing, either) and it is certainly not an easy one to fix. Good on Roher for identifying the problem and presenting an alternative, but it's definitely an issue that needs to be tailored to the service.

@jimmyfenix: They attack in quick succession!

Damn, me and my friend were playing SC: Conviction last night.

Fish seems to be the constant target of personal attacks, more than any online personality I've ever seen. It's interesting, because I'm pretty sure nobody who says half this stuff actually know him.
