After Wii U and this generation of Xbox, I'm thinking it's Sony's turn to mess this up.

I'm not sure why would we have another Balatro if this game has been out since March on PCs. I mean, we would kind of know that already but this is the first I'm hearing of it.
Feels like a bit of a hard sell.

AI bubble may not burst but it will certainly deflate. The amount of god-like capital being poured into this means there will certainly be blood baths. AI will not die but it will definitely experience some growing pains. All of that memory and hardware being swallowed up by investors will eventually come to an end. Just hang in there.

I know it's my explore gameplay style but I've found most average game times for me to be triple the standard. Meaning this would be well over 100 hour game. Bring it on.

The RDR PS5 port will release in a box with inkjet printed cover and a 10 digit code written with crayon on 1 ply cardboard inside.
Try not to get your copy wet for too long.

@PuppetMaster The industry is pushing this to be the norm. I don't like it either but I don't think we are going to stop it. CDs and DVDs are basically dead. Games were one of the last physical mediums, but even the discs and cartridges are just shells of the game. I'll be shocked if the next generation even includes physical media but nobody wants to be the first to lock that out completely.

@Rich33 I think Sony is doing just fine. Xbox, on the other hand...

@chatbot Very sadistic of you.

As a pirate would be about the only way I'd watch it.

Concept of game is your spouse reminding you every 5 minutes your mother-in-law is coming to live with you.

I think 2027 is too soon, anyway.

Similarly, I think Microsoft's earlier strategy of "everything is an Xbox", didn't do much to help sell the actual Xbox

Of all things that almost never happen. Releasing a game early almost never happens the most.

@VonPit what adverts?

I thought saying what you think was forbidden on here

Had 2 different Xbox 360s and both got RROD. Never again...

I think there are two types of video game companies. Ones that will use AI and tell you they did and ones that will use AI and never tell you. To think they aren't going to use a technology to speed up gaming development, is ridiculous. I'm also not telling anyone how they should feel about that revelation, but I can assure you anyone saying that no AI was used in creating a game, is most likely lying.

And here I have to go to an office and toil away to pay my bills. I made a wrong turn at Albuquerque

@BaronLaw Don't forget they made her homely looking. That felt like a choice, as well as an unnecessary one.

I'm old enough to remember when blood in a video game was controversial. Well, those "pearl clutchers" from back then would totally faint watching this game.

@Attheendwearrive He seems to especially hate dictionaries.

Everyone avoiding Q4 2026

I was hoping it would be set in a nursing home with old people. /s

@AdamNovice Zero chance it releases in same quarter as you know who

Video game fans would find a way to complain about a cure for cancer

So, was everyone else on vacation? Why review a game that is said to be difficult, if you don't care for difficult games? Would be like me reviewing a ballet performance.

By entitlement, is he referring to CEO bonuses?

@TheDarts If you don't like it, the movie is not for you. If the movie flops, it's because you didn't watch it.

That title is giving me a migraine, or a stroke. I know "Don't trade in 007 First Light for PS5" are words, but how they belong together in a sentence, I'm unsure.

It's almost as if studios are having non-gamers do QA, or are they just leaving QA to the consumers?

Couldn't care less. I have a gaming PC, Switch 2, PS5 Pro. If it's available on one, I'm good. Not sure why anyone without a PS5 would even be responding to this. The only people who might care, are people who love mods.

@nessisonett Pretty sure that's how jobs work. At least in private industry.

Asia: keeping gaming alive

My whole life is riding on this

@OmegaStriver Or it just isn't a great game. I wouldn't just assume it's some conspiracy without actually playing it

Snooze fest. I tried to get into it several times. It just never hooked me in a way some games do where I can't wait to get back to playing it. The very definition of take it or leave it.

Is it some Mandela effect that I feel this already came out like 10 years ago?

Typical corporate "Ah, we knew you'd hate it. Just joshing with you."

Watch this be an excuse for why P6 takes over a decade to come out. I'm probably more excited for that than I ever was for GTA6.

In an era where internet is being argued as a vital utility, this is here to stay in almost every platform you can think of. The train left the station on PC games a few generations ago. Nintendo is barely making physical games, unless you want to call a key card a physical game (you shouldn't). If anything, the fact key card games are still selling like hot cakes, probably just emboldened Sony to make this move. I can't imagine it being really about privacy, unless there is some rampant mainstream hack on the PS5 that I haven't heard of. Maybe it's pre-emptive move against that but I think it's just corporation mumbo jumbo.

@badbob001 Recycled title. Think they change the number and dates, not much else

The parents said their baby was the cutest baby in the world

The metroidvania term police will show up any minute

That photo is top-level cringe, to me, and I can't figure out why

Not knocking the game but I doubt very seriously it "feels like nothing else out there", bit of a marketing stretch

I can't think of a single game that made me wish I had bought an Xbox this generation. Not one

I don't really think we need another Yakuza game. Let it go.

@AinsleyE It's hilarious how tough this character is and how much sulking and brooding he does

@StitchJones Nintendo enters the chat

I've never worried about Platinums, even in games I love.
