- What an absolute banger of a year 2023 has already been. Nonstop hits and we're not even half done.
- Memes aside, Cyberpunk 2077 is an amazing game. People are (rightly) angry at the bugs, the console port, and the missing features. But what's there is *actually* brilliant, and when the game is fixed and the dust settles people will see for themselves that CDPR made a great game
- It's so funny that this person withstood years of condemnation from the international community for defending literal torture but buckled after like 3 days of tweets from Gamers.Replying to @CharalanahzardLooks like Fran Townsend, Activision CCO, has now deleted her Twitter account
- Destiny 2 will have delivered 2 major expansions and four seasons worth of content in roughly the same amount of time it’s taken Halo Infinite to get Forge and cancel couch coop.
- Alternative headline: 'Turns out one month was more than enough time for most gamers to play a game that lasts 30-50 hours'Cyberpunk 2077 has lost 79% of its playerbase on Steam since launch. 😳 trib.al/9EE6OIF
- Had planned to do a Dead Space review on embargo, but sadly I’ve been absolutely wrecked by a mystery virus this week. Long story short: this absolutely rules. It’s one of the best remakes ever and I strongly recommend it.
- Started chatting to some random dude in the lobby. After a few minutes I was like ‘so what brings you here?’ and he’s like ‘I work in indie publishing’ and I’m like, ‘oh in what capacity?’ and he’s like ‘I’m CEO of Devolver Digital’ and I’m like ‘……… cool’.
- Everyday is a good day to remind everyone that NFTs are a scam. NFTs have no place in videogames. The lies that games will be more fun and players will be wealthier as a result of NFTs is propaganda pushed by investors trying to trick people into buying into their scam.
- No one got 'paid off' to give The Last Of Us Part II a 10/10. Please stop saying that and for the love of god stop using my review as 'proof' of it. I loved Death Stranding and preferred Doom 2016 over Eternal. Reviews are opinions and we all like different things.
- Fuck this. Ubisoft's problems are entirely self-inflicted by upper management alone. They have thousands of talented employees and squander that by forcing them to chase trends and run franchises into the ground. The answer isn't 'workers work harder' - it's new leadership.After a terrible 2022, Ubisoft's Yves Guillemot tells staff the next year is crucial, telling them in an email that "the ball is in your court" to deliver ontime/onbudget. "Today more than ever, I need your full energy and commitment to ensure we get back on the path to success"
