  • bigsocrates posted a message in the forum topic Is Earth Defense Force 5 a poor man's Helldivers 2. on the General Discussion board

    They're VERY different games. They share some ideas in common but besides Helldivers being live service they just play totally differently. EDF is super arcadey and laid back while Helldivers 2 is ki...

  • bigsocrates posted a message in the forum topic What's the Greatest Video Game: Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury. on the Super Mario 3D World board

  • bigsocrates posted a message in the forum topic Welcome (Possibly) A New Multimedia Empire/Overlord (Part Deux): Sony In Talks To Buy Paramount. on the Off-Topic board

    @zombiepie: I mean yes, big deals have big implications, but my point is more that this is not a NEW empire. Sony also owns Sony music and PlayStation, so even if their film brand has been a little le...

    How is this a new empire? Sony is already a media empire.Obviously this wouldn’t be a great thing but it’s hard to see how it would really change stuff from a consumer perspective beyond the perpetual...

    Yars Rising is proof that gaming IP will always get recycled

    Wayforward is making another 2D platformer starring a young female protagonist. As news goes this is the equivalent to "today is Thursday." It doesn't happen every day, but it happens quite a lot. Wha...

    I love (some) indie games, but they're often missing spectacle, polish, and, perhaps most importantly, discourse.

  • bigsocrates posted a message in the forum topic Indie Game of the Week 365: Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising. on the Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising board

    I think it's a little odd to discuss Yoshitaka Murayama and his connection to the upcoming Eiyuden Chronicles main game without noting that he recently tragically passed away, never having seen the r...
