paying a $20/mo subscription so you can watch an ad for a $100 digital-only game that'll take up 200GB of your now very expensive console storage

A new look at GTA 6 will be released exclusively on Netflix on August 27. 3pm ET/12pm PT/8pm BST

Sony discontinuing physical disks was predictable but still incredibly disappointing. Anyone defending it as "steam does the same thing!" is either misinformed or arguing in bad faith. Unlike PCs, a Playstation is a closed system. And unlike Steam, PSN lacks library sharing or good a refund policy.

I wonder if the digital-only backlash combined with the fact that the PS6 is gonna get screwed by component shortages will be enough to make it flop.

I'm a bit out of the loop, was Pokemon Legends Z-A a total dumpster fire or something? It's only been out for half a year but I've seen it on sale more often than any other nintendo game. It's basically the same price as BOTW and that game's almost a decade old.

We've discovered a previously unknown to us version of Oblivion. There was Chinese version of Oblivion Mobile, which upon initial inspection appears to have additional assets not in the English version. We're still investigating, but this is very interesting!

I was wondering why youtube started looking like garbage and realized that they're rolling out automatic AI upscaling. This sucks

I'm replaying Jak 3 for the first time in a decade and I forgot how rough the beginning is. You start off with a combat tutorial + 2 weapons and then get thrown into a series of clunky vehicle races and a button pressing mini game. Strange to start an action platformer with no action or platforming

I've decided that the video of the McDonalds CEO hesitant to take a microscopic bite of their new "product" was actually marketing genius. I was so curious about why he didn't want to eat it that I ended up spending $12 on an aggressively mediocre burger that made me ill.

I really like the "game has been in early access without updates" warning on Steam. What ever happened to Rolled Out anyways? I was really looking forward to it.

I really miss the "play create share" era of PlayStation games. LittleBigPlanet and ModNationRacers were my jam. I bet they would have been recieved really well if they were released today. It's a shame that most zany customization in online games has been scrapped in lieu of microtransactions.

Dreams was cool but I think it was too robust for its own good. Creating stuff felt daunting and the resulting creations were complex enough that an author would be justified in asking to release/sell them externally. I think LBP2 straddled the line of creative freedom without too much complexity.

Everyone's talking about how vanillaware games need to be ported to PC but I'm still waiting for Muramasa Rebirth to get ported to a more modern console with broader support. I absolutely love my Vita but It's really a shame a lot of its library isn't available elsewhere.

Was Doom the Dark Ages any good? Maybe I'm a bit distracted but I dont even remember when it was released, much less any ongoing discussion or hype
