I got a 360 in spring 2006 in no small part because I wanted to play Oblivion so bad (I was in high school at the time). It did not disappoint. The more polished (hah) systems in skyrim make it hard t...

@viralrain said:I just don't understand how shit like this happens at a work place, ESPECIALLY such a large company! How does no one stop this shit!Two words: wage slavery. People need wages to surviv...

@bybeach said:But what did strike me absolute is that the 2:00 advert shown seems mostly a exposition of capitalism, or at least consumption. Nice expensive car-toys, alcohol and raves, diamonds, jewe...

I think this is more complicated than "the government in this place is acting badly so we shouldn't set games there." By that logic, we shouldn't have had games set in the US during the Trump presiden...

I was happy when Beyond Light got a shot out for its soundtrack in this year's GOTY discussion. Even for a franchise (and a studio) that has historically had great soundtracks, the music in this expan...

I will always have a soft spot for GameFAQs as it was my gateway into video game websites (including Jeff and crew at GameSpot) in the early 2000s, but I rarely use it now. Maybe a couple of times a ...

@hansberg said: They even state that the background resembles the "Dubai Circuit of the Emirates track from Forza Motorsport 7", which is decidedly not Mexico.They say it resembles that track, but it...

@chango said:Same here. I play quite a bit but have never done a raid or anything requiring non-matchmaking. I think I was in Lincolnforce(?) years back but I rarely played back then. Would love to jo...

@mostlysquares said:Not sure I miss them at all either tbh. It's like reviews of music in the era of spotify. You can just listen to the songs and make up your own mind instead of reading words about...

Mass Effect is still good. The strength of the world building and characters alone makes it still worth experiencing, even if the overall plot arc is a little hit or miss (more hits than misses though...

I have to join the bandwagon and say Game Pass is still an awesome value even without all DLC being included. It's worth mentioning that Game Pass subscribers get a flat discount (10-15% I think) on a...

TDU2, which this is a direct sequel to, had an in-game casino, so the gambling stuff is not exactly out of place for this series lol.Anyway this trailer is very stupid but I kind of love it for that, ...

My point was they should have known this would have been the reaction before they even announced it. If they're changing course because of the backlash that means they probably weren't expecting it (c...

Obviously good news regarding the PS3 and Vita stores, but the complete reversal when faced with entirely unsurprising backlash doesn't exactly spark confidence in Sony's current leadership.

@kunakai Right, no doubt that's the intended use, but the problems stem from the values that are baked into the rating systems. The documentary "This Film Is Not Yet Rated" is a fairly damning documen...

This is one of the weirder zombie threads I've seen. Putting that aside, rating systems are bad.

It's definitely all about focusing social media engagement into a narrow period so that REVIII can be seen as "driving the conversation" or w/e for a period of time. So it's less about FOMO and more a...

Dear god please no.
