    'Angelic: Dark Symphony', a narrative RPG from former Bungie and Crytek developers, announced

    Why is this front page? Is this sponsored? Who cares? Bungie crashed out a decade ago, Crytek mostly made games without narratives.

    Paper Mario PC recompilation "ReCut" gets its first pre-release build

    I stg man paper mario fans get your fucking PC port after 3 years of nobody doing anything with the decompiled source code, and you complain about "imperfections" and speculative ideological impurities. Be more kind to people. My brother in christ you textually analyzed 600 words of PR (AI...

    Donald Glover announced as the voice of Yoshi during The Super Mario Galaxy Movie Nintendo Direct

    This is just Miyamoto wanting his characters in a 'USA-Hollywood' film. He's also of the generation that saw USA as perfection, rather than the mistake it's always been.

    Valve says that the Steam Machine will be priced like a PC, not a console

    You missed what I and others said. The Steam machine likely will NOT decrease in price due to branding. Similar to Nintendo. Making it a bad deal, and only available to people with a lot of disposable income. You've been on this site for 23 years, yet never learned how branding effects price...

    Valve says that the Steam Machine will be priced like a PC, not a console

    Moore's Law. Transistors double every two or so years. Makes technology very cheap as time goes on. For example: a computer speced at medium-high in 2022 might cost $2400. In 2025, the same computer with slightly better specs becomes only $700-800. Even under supply-chain constraints. In fact...

    Valve says that the Steam Machine will be priced like a PC, not a console

    Definitely. A niche linux-based game playing system; the Steam Deck as-was was already a miracle of loss-leading and strong branding preventing a full flop. Yeah there's no way, again, a linux-based system is future-proofed for all the garbage companies keep mandating for games.

    Valve says that the Steam Machine will be priced like a PC, not a console

    It's going to be underpowered hardware statically overpriced coasting on the Valve branding. It's basically a "pro" general-use console.

    They do.

    Rumors claim that an Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag remake is due out soon

    Literally every assassin's creed game has been "woke". You just have a specific idea of what kind of "woke" you like. Just don't buy it regardless.

    Xbox is bringing Halo to PlayStation

    Halo stopped being a system-seller after the third game.

    Grand Theft Auto VI has been delayed again, to November 2026

    RDR2 is awful. And has a really toxic playerbase. Far worse than GTA on both counts. Imagine a walking simulator that people on the internet get mad at you for for not tilting the analog stick to RP walk during specific cutscenes. And ludo-narrative dissonance that makes Tomb Raider look...

    Grand Theft Auto VI has been delayed again, to November 2026

    Yeah GTA isn't actually that good. It's more like Minecraft with guns. It's fun if you have friends who all pretend its fun. Can have some good minigames; but overall GTA games are incredibly bloated and poorly-paced experiences. The single-player experiences are just awful. Here's hoping the...

    Valve unveils three new hardware products with the new Steam Controller, Steam Frame and Steam Machine

    "Guys the post-launch updates fix everything". I have; don't own one. And I watched a friend spend 3 hours of a party debugging the thing to run Nucleus (it was a file extension error due to Linux). By the way, them not revealing the price in the announcement universally means it's not good...

    Valve unveils three new hardware products with the new Steam Controller, Steam Frame and Steam Machine

    Honestly looks pretty bad. Likely will be high quality hardware at a decent or poor price; but will be completely stonewalled by a disasterous UX. Linux is pretty bad, and KDE plasma (the desktop used per specs page) doesn't fix that.

    What 3DS version should I buy?

    There's not much of a reason for a handheld console. Best 3ds experience is emulating it; and individual emulators for each console are better than what the 3ds can do, and far easier to set up. Steam deck isn't much better due to its bulk and running on Linux, if you really want a portable...

    Nintendo Direct focused on the "Super Mario Galaxy Movie" will air on November 12th

    Games as a market are dying. Nintendo knows this and is diversifying their output, and extracting all they can from their IP. Other industry players are learning this as well, being the main reason for the price increases. Bait. Unrelatedly, Chibi Robo fans are very unhinged, including Scott...

    Switch emulator "Citron" updated to v0.10.0 features cross-collaboration between Citron, Ryujinx and Eden developers

    Yeah it was never reported clearly. What happened was Nintendo basically bribed the lead and only the lead Ryujinx developer to stop working on it, and possibly also agree to not touch emulation development again. He was never legally threatened, as Nintendo didn't have a strong case against...

    Xbox is bringing Halo to PlayStation

    Wait does this mean there's no MP maps? Which would make sense, a lot them were experimental in CE, and would not function well with all the changes. $70 or however much for the CE campaign + 3 bonus missions (likely somehow of lower quality), no MP, is a massive fucking ask.
