    Zero Punctuation: Destiny 2

    I played the first installment as a part of the Taken King bundle (I had also gotten the Destiny PS4 as part of that bundle, and that was really the only reason I had Destiny). I played for about 3 months, whereupon I became extremely bored and went off to try Elder Scrolls Online and Final...

    Overwatch Anniversary Kicks Off with New Skins, Dances, and New Arena Maps

    I just focus on having fun playing the game rather than worrying about the loot system, because buying RNG loot boxes is silly. I purchased the game on release and have not spent a penny more into it. The game is the important part; the loot system is just cool items that are nice to have, if...

    High-Powered Hardware Isn't Enough to Make Project Scorpio Succeed

    You launch the first salvo of conceit with your first post in this thread and continued from there. Engineering also accounts for ease of use. It IS a factor in design. Even further, because a console is a well-defined, universal target platform, it makes it much easier to stabilize and...

    High-Powered Hardware Isn't Enough to Make Project Scorpio Succeed

    Wow! Such condescending arrogance and blatant bigotry! First, engineering takes much more into consideration than just raw number pushing power when it comes to product development. Second, most consoles are developed and sold by Japanese companies, not American companies. Third, what are...

    High-Powered Hardware Isn't Enough to Make Project Scorpio Succeed

    What IS IT with you PC gamers that every, single, shit-fucking thread about consoles, you guys have to come in and evangelize to everyone about the PC. Look, we can do the math. We already know the merits of the PC, and, yet, we choose to game on a console for reasons outside of basic...

    You Can't Use PS4 Share in Persona 5

    Being a story-based game with a single play-through design is an absolute bullshit reason, in my opinion, to disable sharing features. There are so many pre-existing games that have exactly the same design that do allow share features. So, there is no precedent for disabling share features...

    Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind Gets its First Gameplay Trailer, New Screenshots

    I can't speak for the PC version, but the PS4 version still has a number of crashing issues. Particularly, playing the game on PS4 Pro, as I do, in Cyrodiil, which is the big open-world PvP zone and the only reason I play the game, is extremely difficult due to crashes every 15 - 60 minutes...

    Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind Gets its First Gameplay Trailer, New Screenshots

    They need to fix the first game, first.

    Blizzard Says D.Va Nerf Gives Her "More Legitimate Counters"

    In my opinion, Blizzard's biggest problem with their balancing is that they are not sufficiently surgical about it. They make relatively huge numerical changes instead of smaller incremental changes. While they try to counter balance the change to one stat by changing another, I'm not sure...

    Zero Punctuation: Final Fantasy XV

    I have a level 68 Noctis, currently, and I still haven't really done everything in the game (fighting the Adamantoise was a 3 hour chore, but I got an item that gives 10000 HP for the trouble; so, it balances to some degree, in my book). Is FFXV a great game of epic proportions living up to the...

    Introspection

    Depression is a handicap/sickness, not a way of life or definition of self. But some people certainly do seem to turn it into the later with their attitudes, outlook, and approach to life, regardless if they actually suffer depression or not.

    PS4 Probed

    I'm going to go against the opinionated recommendation of the Internet and obtain a PS4 Pro. However, I intend to do this by trading in my current PS4 and a couple of its games (one I don't play and the other I decided to buy the digital version because I like not having to swap discs), the PS3...

    Sony Adds Two-Factor Authentication Option to PlayStation Network Accounts

    Setting this up tonight when I get home. It's about time they added this, considering past hacks.

    Sony Refund Policy Criticized Following No Man's Sky Launch

    I just watched the Angry Joe review. I'm glad I didn't buy into this game. Seven crashes! ON PS4!!! That's just inexcusable. From what I'm seeing, the game seems boring, frustrating, and unrewarding. Not even worth $5 just to test-drive, because my time is more valuable than that...

    People Quitting Jobs, Walking off Cliffs, and Hit by Cars Playing Pokemon GO

    Evolution spent a million years developing our physical senses and mental faculties to be able to perceive and respond to imminent physical dangers around us. However, the elimination of common sense thinking from our society has, apparently, successfully undone all of evolution's best efforts...
