    Resolution Wars: Mass Effect Andromeda 1080p on PS4, 900p on XB1

    The One S is only marginally more powerful than a regular one. It provided 4K support for TV/movies, but still only upscales the games. It also provides the HDR support that is native to the regular PS4 once they patched it in. I'm not sure how it compares to the regular PS4, but considering...

    Mighty No. 9 Release Delayed Yet Again

    See, I just don't see it the same way. The product is the payout for the investment, and sometimes that simply doesn't pan it out, be it with hedge funds or Kickstarters. I also do believe that these people truly want to make good games, though I also believe they're motivated by profit as...

    Mighty No. 9 Release Delayed Yet Again

    I backed this and I'm not particularly worried. I know going into each and every Kickstarter there's a risk the product may never exist, or there will large delays. There are so many games out already that I just keep playing those and I'll play this when it finally does release. People who...

    Rise of The Tomb Raider Coming to PC in January

    I skipped Fallout 4 to play this, actually, and had a blast. I've come to avoid Bethesda games on launch, since I know they'll be incredibly buggy. On top of that, I tend to play them on PC, so giving Fallout 4 some time means the intrepid PC modding community will have a slew of great stuff...

    Miss Piggy Meets Ninja Turtle to Form Mutant All Its Own

    Turtles are reptiles.

    The Worst Part of Each King's Quest Game

    He theoretically does, but King's Quest V doesn't take place in Daventry, it's an entire other kingdom. Though at no point does that kingdom apparently have a ruler, so it seems he could simply come back and annex it later...

    Every Oculus Rift Will Ship With a Free Xbox One Controller

    I do have a Wii U, and it's an excellent system. I actually have more Wii U games than PS4 and XB1 combined at this point, though in fairness the Wii U did get a one year headstart.

    Every Oculus Rift Will Ship With a Free Xbox One Controller

    Honestly, I think it's a good call. I buy every console, and as far as games went, I preferred my PS3 over my 360, and I currently prefer my PS4 over my XB1 (Though I don't think either of the MS systems are terrible or anything). That said, MS nailed the controller. The PS controller may...

    New Xbox One Controllers May Feature Headphone Jack

    I didn't even realize the PS4 controller supported this. Of course, that's because I was busying using my Logitech USB headset which plugs into the USB port and -just works- on my PS4. Using the same headset requires a ridiculous set of adapters on my XB1. This is one of the most epic fails...

    Linux Users Drop to Under 1% In Latest Steam Survey

    If Valve is serious about Linux being a real alternative to Windows as a gaming platform, then it very much -is- their responsibility. They may not develop drivers themselves, but they could pay AMD and nVidia to develop them. They certainly aren't required to, but without proper driver...

    Linux Users Drop to Under 1% In Latest Steam Survey

    They can't force them, no, but they can certainly offer a financial incentive to do so. That's why I mentioned only money and not time. They need to put together a contract that incentivizes AMD and nVidia to do so for them. After some predetermined amount of time they would then need to...

    Nintendo Reveals How Much Sales Butt Fire Emblem: Awakening Kicked

    They can go as casual as they like, provided they don't remove the original difficulty level as an option. I'm not about to touch casual mode, I like the tension from knowing I have to make the right choices to keep my players alive, but they can add an 'I win' button for all I care if it means...

    Linux Users Drop to Under 1% In Latest Steam Survey

    If Valve truly wants Linux to be a viable alternative to Windows, they need to put some real money into ensuring quality drivers for graphics cards. That's the biggest weakness Linux has; the official drivers for graphics card tend to be incredibly sub-par. If they could remove that advantage...

    Next Fire Emblem Expanding Casual Options, Dropping Breakable Weapons

    Yeah, weapon durability as thing does make sense, but it's also worth noting that people don't generally just use up weapons the way they do in Fire Emblem games. I feel like adding a blacksmith that would simply repair your weapons for a cost would have made more sense.

    The Digital Distribution Wars Are On Again

    GoG also verifies the game works properly on current operating systems. I purchased Dungeon Siege on Steam and never was able to get it to work properly. Ironically, I ended up picking up a physical copy and for some reason that works perfectly fine. GoG is always the safer bet on older...
