Which one? Dean Takahashi in Eternal or that Polygon journalist who must have been playing 2016 on a steering wheel? Speaking of more journalist shenanigans, PCGgamer decided to repost a bunch of six year old articles for no apparent reason, including this one. That’s some hard hitting journalism and we know exactly what the response would be if it was the other way. Yeah the Polygon journo playing 2016, but Takahashi's review warms my heart because it's Boomerism in it's purest form. Now imagine an article titled?... Every pair of breasts In DOA Xtreme Beach Volleyball, rated

So this is interesting, a research think-tank that quantifies social media responses toward games using AI came out with a report on the sentiments of people toward Assassins Creed Shadows. playerxp.io/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/PlayerXP-Ubisoft-Community-Sentiment-Report.pdfThis data is also broken down into several subsections and what’s fascinating to me is that despite Yasuke being mostly negatively viewed, the discussions around him are less toxic than the industry standard. Also discussions around Yasuke are secondary to discussions around Ubisoft, game stability and historical authenticity in which people have very negative opinions toward all three. Do check out this research.

Despite their shills' efforts to gaslight and deflect Ubi trying to nickle and dime or their latest unoptimized game making people's rigs explode like in 'Live Free or Die Hard' are primarily the bulk of our concerns. Speaking about Yasuke, Nioh's rendition of the character hasn't been topped and has the most unique design too.

Honestly, I don't think that kinda thing should be allowed. I mean, cool XP and all- good for them, I'm sure it was a very exciting experience. But it's unfair to the rest of us "normal Gamers" who aren't into the whole "Content Creation/Youtuber" schtick. They already get paid thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars for the content they put out on youtube-- they can bloody pay for their own trips! It's not like they don't have the money! (And I bet they get their Ultimate and GOLD Editions for FREE in a goody bag at the end of the trip, or something). Meanwhile, the rest of the masses (that's most of or all of us here on the BSN) who will actually be BUYING/PAYING FOR our games...we're the ones that actually fund the company. Think about it, I'll bet a lot *not all) but a lot of those lucky SOBs that got their trips paid for are Youtubers who threw shade at the game every chance they got (guys like AngryJoe come to mind) and yet they are getting paid trips and all kinds of other perks? Lemme hear ya say "that ain't right!"

Does anyone have any info regarding new Naughty Dog or Lara Croft projects? Nothing new from Naughty Dog since the multiplayer Last of Us Part 2 release was cancelled. Lara Croft is probably in limbo right now since the IP is owned by Embracer Group.

Why does a video game cost as much as a nuclear powered attack submarine? WTF are they cooking over there? I have three guesses, the first that the number really isn't that high and someone was looking at the wrong information before leaking it. The other is that they are dumping all kinds of money into it because they have all kinds of money from GTAV and trying to make a "bigger & better" version. The final is that the game has been in development hell since it has been in development for over a decade and if they have been paying overtime that escalates costs fast.

If that comically high development cost is genuine, and not clickbait then i wouldn't be surprised if the bulk was from advertising.

So that's why Games are 100.00 to start....Figures.
I remember back in the day when the original floppy disk version of TIE FIGHTER came out *before the CD Version)-- that floppy version was 80.00 CAD for the Collector's Edition which came with at least 2 Expansion packs (Defender of the Empire and something else I forget the name of), a nice paperback story called The Steele Chronicles, a poster and a few other things. It was pretty packed for the time, and so yeah, I can see that price point even then. But that was a top-shelf game when most other games were max 50 to 60 CAD.
Now even mid tier Editions of games (looking at you OUTLAWS) are well over 150.00 CAD and Top shelf are over 200.00
Something is definitely wrong.
But the day I got the Collector's Edition of TIE FIGHTER is a very fond memory. I remember that my parents had made me a deal that as a delayed birthday present- if I was willing to wait- they would buy me that game. I remember that day I was out with a friend and we raced home that afternoon, I ran up my driveway, jumped on the fence and looked into the kitchen windows to see the box sitting on the table! I was so excited! I came running inside as dad came up from the basement and said "It was quite expensive- at 80.00 dollars, but I figured I buy you the Collector's Edition because it comes with some neat stuff like a story book and an expansion pack with extra missions. I know you like stuff like that, so I figured it was worth the money over the 60 dollars for the basic game. Happy belated birthday."
And Rebel Assault II The Hidden Empire was another very fond memory; I received that game as a complete surprise gift at Christmas the year it came out.
But definitely one of my very best gaming memories was playing the original DARK FORCES because my dad played that along side me. He'd start his own player/game profile....then I'd start one and the next morning/the next day we would always talk about where we were and our thoughts about the game. You see, he really liked it because at the time, he was very much into DOOM and DOOM II, and DARK FORCES was said to be a "STAR WARS version of DOOM" (though it did have some improvements like being able to look up/down and even jumping) so we would talk about our experiences as we played the game together.
But now I'm the only one who is still into Gaming, and our taste/preferences in games has changed over the years.

I remember having to save up $80 to buy Final Fantasy 3 for the SNES in the 90s. I would say the cost of video games hasn't kept up with inflation and they cost vastly more to make now for there are hundreds if not thousands of people making a game now versus less than a hundred back then. If an item cost $50 back in 1990 then with inflation it would cost $120 today.

If that comically high development cost is genuine, and not clickbait then i wouldn't be surprised if the bulk was from advertising. That’s what I thought too but keep in mind that you don’t really need to spend a lot for marketing a mainline GTA game; its very existence will sell itself and word of mouth will guarantee that they will make their money within a week. I also checked out RDR2’s development costs and together with marketing it’s $500 Million and they had around 8 years with 2,000 people working on it. The question is what happened that they needed $2 Billion? Speaking of money: “Bruh just eat the gray sludge, bruh. Don’t ask questions, just consume bruh and dab on haterz.” If the name Nadeshot sounds familiar, then you probably have seen this infamous video. If soulless greedy shills are starting to panic, then it’s a sign of good things to come.

If soulless greedy shills are starting to panic, then it’s a sign of good things to come. Which are? Hopefully the collapse of greedy devs along wit their publishers. The power vacuum would allow in fresh blood and hopefully passionate developers to fill it. And by passionate I mean those who put players first and foremost, not agendas, not the bottom line but players.

One can only guess what the worker morale is for GTA 6 with an allegedly much bigger budget.
