Short answer: Acceleration. Long answer: Your inner ear measures the acceleration your head goes through. When its measurements don't match what you are seeing, your brain concludes you must have eaten something bad, therefore you empty your stomach via vomiting. With VR when you turn your...

The next PS will probably use x86 too - and the one after that. There aren't all that many competitive choices for CPU ISAs these days. x86 if you want power. ARM if you want efficiency. And you have POWER I suppose ... but IBM is the only one working on it, ergo, it won't keep up with...

Season Passes/DLC are basically expansions. Yes, some companies like to "spread out" content into expansions leaving a barren base game. In such a scenario, they are basically short changing you and I suggest you do not buy the game if you think you aren't getting value for your money...

He is excellent at dissuading me from buying a game. LOL Since I have a finite amount of time and money for games. It's a welcome service.

This is how low people's standards have fallen. They are OK with cosmetic-only loot boxes ... /smh Good job game industry. You have won. Good job.

It's good to be king I suppose. Monster Hunter is kind of a national pastime in Japan. Thus I believe Capcom leaves the development team to their own devices - why fix what isn't broke and risk killing the goose that lays the golden egg.

Not sure how it's going to sustain itself with no new content planned for it. After players level to 60 and clear Naxx ... then what?

One can hope that if any of these blood sucking executives get sick ... doctors will sell them various parts of the treatment in lootboxes. Pain killers? Buy a lootbox. Didn?t get it? Try again. It?s ?optional? anyway.

All I have to say is lootboxes are for all intents and purposes gambling and should be regulated and advertised as such. Odds have to be disclosed and regulated, teens/children should not be allowed to gamble, ... etc. edit: It's curious that lootboxes are so popular all of a sudden...

For the same reason most Hollywood actress are drop dead gorgeous. It sells.

Maybe. History has shown though that gamers are all bark and no bite. Complain on the Internet but buy the game anyway - look at how well Shadow of War sold; various talking heads in the gaming circles are even rationalizing it. We have lost. Edit: I suppose the best we can hope for are...

It's called "pandering".

They were also a lot harder to make. Cost more. Requires a large lead time - months vs weeks of CDs. CD brought the prices of games down as CDs are a few cent a disc compared to $20-$30 a cartridge - a cost that the consumer has to pay increase the price of the game by a mandatory $20-$30...

Guess physical sales are down and being displaced by streaming of which CrunchyRoll is No.1. The runner-up merging with 3rd place to survive ... Why is everyone so shocked? Edit: Also god help them if NetFlix and Amazon decide to enter the game. There is zero way they can compete. With...

You mean like Utaha Kasumigaoka from Saenai Hiroin no Sodatekata
