@goldenageplayer:All of the above, I suppose. It's just odd to see it NOW when it's been a "thing" for at least two decades. It's like someone exclaiming "look, I invented a device which allows you to...

@trickster200: The reviewer did use Squire mode, and still found it too difficult.The key with GnG is memorizing all enemy attack patterns. It's not like Megaman where only the boss is important; ALL ...

Why does this guy get so much press when there have been a hundred people doing the same thing over the years? Just check Youtube...

Can't wait to hear modern gamers bemoan some of the outright terrible drop rates this game had. I'm almost willing to bet that Blizzard increased them...And since single player will be allowed, I'm wi...

@mogan:But the issue with "mob mentality" is that there is no actual proof that the mob are even subscribers; much less that they would have actually harmed Disney financially. I can't really say one ...

Midnight releases are dumb, but not because of spoilers. If they were smart, they'd have a staggered release time for concurrently airing shows, just like tv does now. 7:00 pm - WandaVision, 8:00 pm M...

"But they make it up in volume!"

@restatbonfire: I like Black Friday too, but you have to do a ton of research. 99% of what goes on sale is last year's or the prior year's model. Which is fine, but many stores try to hide this with a...

Instead of suing and paying a bunch lawyers, just sell your own color replacement kit, Sony. It'll be cheaper in the long run.Also, China. If there's a big enough demand, some company in China will ma...

@consolehaven: no one's sold ps4 shells or xbox shells because there wasn't a demand.There's a demand now. Demand = market, market = money for entrepreneurs.As long as they aren't using Sony logos, Db...

@consolehaven: they do sell Ferrari shells. I saw one for a Volkswagon. Easy replace, since the engine is already in the rear. To get around copyright/logo infringement, all logos are removed, but can...

@PrpleTrtleBuBum: Simcity was originally by Maxis software. EA just bought them out later, so I really don't count that title. One could even make the argument that after EA took over, SimCity was des...

@mogan: I think with PC, it's a little different ballgame, because largely there was never a used game market, and everything was pretty much DRM early on anyways. You had popular games that used thin...

@KotomineKirei said:"They're not cheaper than any other platform, and their discount rates are the same across the board."What are you talking about?The sales on Steam are usually a lot better than t...

@mogan: For the life of me, I don't know why anyone ever bought into that "publishers will lower game prices if they are digital" argument. It simply doesn't make any sense. If you lower the cost of m...

@Joey2cool: Don't forget (which you touched on) - Steam provides the REACH. They provide the customer base built-in. It's like advertising. In the case of Ubisoft using The Division 2, they were adver...

@nyran125tk: It's not Valve that sets the price. It's the publisher. Basically, publishers want their cake and eat it too. They want the reach of Steam to customers, but then don't want to pay the 20-...

@jenovaschilld: It's funny, because EA got it's start by bootlegging games onto the Sega platform. And now look where we are! Thanks, EA!FWIW, younger me always hated EA. I'd never buy one of their ga...

@Wraith3: That's only for AAA games, and only for launch. Afterwards, Steam quickly catches to market forces and does indeed lower their prices (or rather, the publishers do). I can't say the same for...

It will only be current gen when you can walk into any Walmart and see the consoles on the shelves.
