@saturatedbutter: That's what is so sad about this. That if it's not E3, Gamespot can't get any news without ripping it off from other sites. Last thing I saw on Gamespot that was a "scoop" was Van Ord interviewing Ken Levine about Bioshock Infinite. How long ago did that game come out? Yeah...that long ago.
@STEAMCAMEL: After Gerstmanngate, Gamespot has been sliding down the mountain at a steady pace. Wish Danny would put in his two weeks and just create a Youtube channel. His content is the only thing worthwhile on the entirety of a website sadly owned by CBS. I bet he could get a lot of people to follow him and out the door and have enough staff to make a successful Youtube channel. He's the only guy on here that reminds me of the talent this site used to have. All of them moved on to much bigger and better things.
This kind of crap is why I don't visit this site that often anymore. I don't read the reviews because the score never really matches the written review. Can't watch a video either because they used the crap player that is literally a slideshow, or the good player (but still outdated one) with a mandatory 30 second ad in front of anything you try to watch. And the "news" is stuff like this, that isn't even remotely entertaining. It's like Gamespot realized they went from the top of the barrel to the bottom when it comes to being a powerhouse game journalism site, and desperately put up ANY content (even blatant clickbait) just to keep the electricity on. In a few weeks there will probably be a "Dank Memes" section up on the navbar.
Do the cars drive like real cars? Because I just got Dirt 3 a while back with Games With Gold and the cars drive like they're in a hockey rink (probably why it was free). Worst racing game I ever played. Made me actually miss Pole Position II.
@BassMan: Because it does have value, always, to somebody out there. You too easily confuse ego and "bragging rights" with investments.
A lot of rich people turn their money into things they can sell at a later time. Jewelry, Rolex watches, ugly-ass paintings, Faberge eggs. Stuff they don't need, but invest in. Classic cars are an investment. An old stock Camaro is still worth potentially twice as much as a brand new 2016 Malibu LTZ still sitting on the lot. And it's only going to increase as time goes on. Is a muscle car different because it's cooler than a playing card?
That you call jewelry a "stupid thing" shows that you don't really understand what you're talking about. Precious metals have a market value that changes. Just realize how many people invest in gold, silver, platinum, etc. There are entire businesses that try to convince uneducated people to sell them their jewelry so they can melt it down, kick them a few bucks as a reward for being stupid, then go and profit like crazy off the actual value of the metal.
In a worst case scenario, you can put those "stupidest things" in a safety deposit box and always have them to sell for immediate cash, should you need it. It's why people buy land with no intention of ever building on it. Because God's not making anymore of it, and (unless you happen to own wetlands where nothing can be built on it) it's an investment.
People spending $5000 on a card are not playing with that card, believe me. Eventually everything has value. Watch those antique road shows where a $0.20 spittoon is worth $8000. And if you don't know what a spittoon is, finding out will prove my point much more than the point you're trying to prove.
Based on the description, I'd REALLY like to see this. Would be so much more interesting than the tired old Die Hard and Rocky sequels. Creed slid by just because it was about Apollo's son, in a way that made it feel more like a Rocky movie than the last 3 Rocky movies.
Conan is timeless though. It would be a huge hit if a new one came out. They already implied Conan was king and was aging at the end of one of the movies, so it's not like Arnold being older makes any difference.
