On my business card, I am factory worker. In my mind, I am a game enjoyer. But in my heart, I am a hater. English is my third language and I don’t use translators, so be polite if I make no sense. 🚫 no PlayStation 🚫

Metroid, and is not even close.

Metroid could be actual cinema. Could.
Boss Rush Banter: With a Focus on Cinema, What Nintendo Franchise is Most Deserving of a Movie Adaptation?

Nintendo doubles down on movie production. Which franchise is most deserving of a movie adaptation outside of Mario and Zelda?

Cartridges, but you could buy digital games also. They are the same as cartridges or discs but install on the device memory and are tied to your (necessary) account.
It’s a portable PC. It’s like a portable console but with Linux and Steam (store for games on pc). It’s simpler than a PC but not simpler than a Switch or other console.

Prices for games are better on PC (keep that in mind) but the simplicity of click a game and play that game is a console thing.
Switch 2 better than the Steam Deck then. Closed systems are a lot better for first timers.
Biopics are essentially Oscar baiting and more times than not, pure revisionism.
The first teaser for “Michael,” the long-waited Michael Jackson biopic, is out:
Dragon’s Dogma 1, Symphony of the Night and Terraria.
what are your guys' comfort games and why?
Or Capcom, Konami, CD Porjekc, etc.

Half of the industry are independent developers. This is not the meaning of indie, evry third party developer is independent of hardware manufacturers and store owners.

The og post are right. Larian is a 500 people studio and team cherry 2. One is indie dev.
And I hope they keep not getting it.
Rare being so big is at this point blatant revisionism, and I think that have some to do with current Nintendo hate.
People whose window into gaming in the 90s was Normalboots/Jontron videos think Rare carried gaming at the time but really it was Capcom, Konami, Square, and Activision who were doing that.

Rare was barely a footnote outside of being the one consistent developer on the N64 that wasn't in-house
I will keep not buying PlayStation products no matter what the competition does.
The thing with PlayStation is they're in a very good place to bounce back from because PS5 has been selling well despite everything and more of the console crowd are bound to see PS6 as the *only* option after Xbox terribly mishandling all the operation, not just software.
Yeah, that’s not true at all lol. Now Rare are a corpse and Nintendo keeps delivering banger after banger and some other little things between.
I hope continues to non exist forever.
RUMOR: Sony reportedly preparing Cross-Buy between PS5 and PC

Players may soon be able to buy a game once and own it on both platforms.

However, if implemented, it would likely work through a new Sony PC service, essentially a PlayStation Store for PC, which doesn’t exist yet.
Sam thing with youtubers and streamers. If you solely interact with a link and a bunch of tags, I don’t go to your channel. First build a close circle, interact, talk, discuss… and then post the link.
I saw a post of an author complaining that they weren't making any sales here and would leave if they couldn't.

Here's the thing. No one's here to follow people who ONLY talk about and push sales. This is not a sales site. We're not here to be advertised to. This place is for community, first.
A ver cuánto tarda Sony en decir que ha venido unos cuantos millones de PS2 más. Ya lo ha hecho como tres veces y con la consola más muerta que chanquete. Pero se le acerca la Switch y son como son.
Imagínate ser fan de los Simpson. Después de comerle las bolas a Elon Musk y de pasar de ser una serie transgresora a una serie que simplemente quiere molar. Imagina pensar que sigue siendo relevante.

Espero que fortnite sea el último clavo del ataúd
Fortnite has teamed up with The Simpsons in one of the most unexpected crossovers yet! 🎮💛
From Springfield skins to themed items and emotes, fans are already buzzing about what this collaboration could bring.

✨ But is this really a perfect match — or just another gimmick?

The final act of the Indy DLC got way too combat focused for my taste, but it was also more of my 2024 GOTY so I give it a ehhhhhh it was pretty good out of 10.
Literalmente lleva tres entrees segues no siendo víctima en absoluto. Una de protagonista y dos siendo la que mantiene el mal a raya y por lo tanto la pieza más importante en la guerra, aunque esté ausente.
Well I don’t say nothing like that so, maybe it’s a projecting thing of you?
But calling “guts” to a childish behavior like this is a clearly bias. The David vs Goliath, the consumer fighting the corporation. It’s a Nintendo hate thing I believe.
Everything is a hard spoiler in that game. There is some sort of time travel yeah, but mostly in a scientific way.
Outer Wilds lo hace como ninguno, sin aspavientos.
Jugando a Dragon’s Dogma Dark Arisen en la Switch 2 y me han entrado todas las ganas de jugar el contenido de esa versión con las mejoras de calidad de vida y gráficos del 2. Las clases se sienten un retroceso después de jugar a la secuela pero en contenido gana de calle el original.
Para eso te esperas a la rebaja en digital típica que Capcom no se corta a la hora de rebajar sus juegos.

Digital es más digno que un falso físico.
Avowed manda!

Está medianamente bien escrito, el mundo es precioso y tiene un parry que mola!

Ojalá en Switch 2.
This weekend we are going to be talking about video games that are being slept on.
The latest Pillars of Eternity, Avowed, has hardly made a splash in conversations this year. What is a game (new or old) that doesn’t get the love it deserves? What did you think of Avowed?

The worst biggest mistake is that they exist.
What’s the biggest mistake Web3 game developers make? 🎮

According to Hantao Yuan, co-founder of Moku — it’s building traditional-style games for the wrong audience.
