@chamurai: I get that, it's just for me it's the kind of thing where you either know it or you don't. There are a few times where I've been like "oh I should have caught that" but mostly either I just...

@chamurai: I look at the screenshots and try to guess the game. I don't really spend too much time racking my brain because for me it's just not that serious. In terms of Googling, I only use it for...

I'm too old. I'm aware of the games but I've never played them and they don't really appeal to me though having not tried them it's possible I would like them if I did.In a way they remind me of old ...

@chamurai: This one took me 3In terms of that other game, which I won't name because you can go back and do prior days if you want, it's probably either that it was just a tough one to do backwards co...

@thepanzini: I think we all understand why this happened the way it happened. But that doesn't mean people weren't disappointed by the way it was baited and switched.And extended universes like that ...

@thepanzini: Just because you're making 1 game doesn't mean you can't make another especially with a studio that size. Plus live service multiplayer games can have a single player component (Gears an...

@michaelenger: To be fair some of the extraction games don't even have gear or XP rewards (though most do.) They're just about running the same maps over and over and over. And some of them don't both...
