    They fired the Escapist's editor, and the video team, Yahtzee resigns

    Damn....so this is how it all ends. I've barely been active at all these past few years but I would still check out the forums every now and then. Really sucks to see it end like this after 15+ years. Also sucks that Yahtzee does not have the rights to zero punctuation.

    Ukraine

    If Wagner maintains a presence in Rostov they could effectively hold the entire supply line to the southern front in Ukraine hostage. Given the counter offensive going on right now, i don't think i need to explain why that would be a massive problem for Russia. As for Prigozhin's goals, at...

    Ukraine

    I think the issue for the MoD is that most of the security forces sent to stop Wagner have just parted like the Red Sea. Things might change now that Putin has condemned Wagner's actions, but I would not be surprised if this comes down to FSB vs Wagner.

    Ukraine

    Here is what i believe is most likely happening After Wagner took Bakmut, the Russian Minister of Defense, Shoigu, ordered all PMCs to be integrated into the Russian military by July 1st. And before all...THIS happened, Wagner's leader, Prigozhin, stated that he would not comply. As you all...

    Favorite FROMSOFT Game

    Bloodborne is my favorite, but I have special place in my heart for all things Armored Core. Armored core 3 and Silent line were my favorites from that series.

    Mass Effect Legendary edition impressions: Two steps forward, one step back

    Tbf Garrus didn't really have anything to do once you rescued him from the gangs on Omega. His whole squad was dead and if the gangs hadn't tracked him down he probably would have already fled omega before you got there. And IIRC Liara was trying to save her friend who helped recover Shepard's...

    Gina Carano Fired From “The Mandalorian” Over “Abhorrent” Social Media Posts

    Well I'd argue that disliking someone because of their race is different from disliking someone for their political opinion. While the statement about about how the Nazi's cultivated hatred is true, the problems is that all her other tweets over the past 6 months don't put this tweet in a good...

    Gina Carano Fired From “The Mandalorian” Over “Abhorrent” Social Media Posts

    Didn't know that though given her past comments and where she probably falls on the political spectrum, I'm not surprised.

    Gina Carano Fired From “The Mandalorian” Over “Abhorrent” Social Media Posts

    This is unlikely a panic fire In fact, this is the 3rd or 4th time Gina Carano has come under fire for her tweets. Back in September she criticized social distancing restrictions (wearing masks) and supposedly insulted people who follow them. She drew a lot of ire from social media over this...

    Your video game hot take(s) thread

    Tbf a lot of the sanctification of the Boss comes after MGS3 specifically in MGS4 and Peace Walker. While the rest of the series has elements that are as silly if not more than those in MGR (on paper at least), they are usually framed in a way that gives them a weird somewhat grounded feel...

    Your video game hot take(s) thread

    Wait is that actually true? I mean I have heard that Snake was originally suppose to die at the end, but I always thought it was just by suicide. Though, considering the ending credits theme song and the movie it's taken from I guess that's not too surprising.

    Cyberpunk 2077 Review thread - Umm....

    I mean, Witcher 3 wasn't perfect, but it certainly wasn't anywhere close to Cyberpunk in terms of lack of polish. I played the PC version six months after the intial release and I rarely ran into anything game breaking. Didn't notice anything worse when I played it again in 2018 after getting...

    Neil Druckman tries to mobilise TLOU 2 fans to vote for it for player choice in The Game Awards Player vote category

    Jason Schrier left kotaku back in April and I believe he now works for Bloomberg news.

    Best Halo campaign

    Best for me is a toss up between Reach and Halo 3 Reach has a slight edge in level design and abilities, but Halo 3 has duel wielding and more enemy variety ( I actually had very few problems with the flood in 3 and its easily the least annoying in the original trilogy). Reach has the Saber...

    Your Choice for the Next Big Remake?

    I would love to see the first two Metal Gear games remade(with or without kojima). Although they would probably have to add a lot of original content since I don't think either game would be considered long enough for a modern AAA release. Alternatively, the two games could be combined into...
