What's interesting is that the dev behind Concord was only acquired by Sony halfway through development. Initial development took place under a company called ProbablyMonsters. Not sure why Sony decided to buy the dev, maybe they believed in Concord, but the lack of advertising kinda points to that not being the case and them wanting something else.
Hum did not know that, I guess I would need to know what state it was in back then. But then again, I'm pretty sure Marathon was started under Sony tutelage, so I have my doubt that Sony would have stepped in and stopped them.

Gorillaz, no! Don't sell out to Fortnite! You're all better than this! Who's next?! Which one of us is next?!/s

Eh, they'll be fine.

Much as I dislike everything being part of Fortnite, that doesn't make the original work any less good. Goku, Kratos and Leon Kennedy building bunkers to shoot each other from doesn't affect my enjoyment of Dragon Ball, God of War or Resident Evil.

Surprisingly, Gorillaz fans approve of this. Even the people who don't like Fornite, or are indifferent to the game. It's usually because they're hyped for more creative content from the creators/group themselves, or want the younger fans to know about their music and songs. Funny enough, a lot of young people still know they exists or at least heard of the Gorillaz.

Whatever, just wash your hands.

Maybe, but Sony acquired Bungie in 2022, I wouldn't have been surprised if Bungie was playing around with ideas for Marathon before they were acquired and Sony liked the sound of Marathon and greenlit it. But Sony did talk about wanting a bunch of live service games, probably for investors.

At this point, I'd be more surprised if he's actually charged with anything. The dude seems to have a silver tongue that lets him weasel his way out of anything.

Which BTW, I have to compliment; Not too many people can do this for as long as this POS has been doing

I thought this game looked like a mess when I watched Max-dood play it. Like a clunky slow single player warframe with twitch puzzle solving. Blech.
I'm not sure about the hacking thing, that could end up being super annoying. But usually Capcom is quite good with 3rd person shooters so I think they will figure something out, to make it at least interesting in the long run.

I've been seeing other interviews and previews, and the game is fast paced. Don't let the hacking minigame fool you. It might seem awkward at first, but, like Max mentioned, it'll become secondhand nature to you.

Also CriticalGaming, don't knock it until you try it. This is a unique third person shooter, I am interested in.

If he ever does get ousted, at least he’ll have a place waiting for him somewhere in politics.

First Elden Ring, and Now Star Wars Outlaws runs like shit? https://kotaku.com/star-wars-outlaws-switch-2-assassins-creed-shadows-framerate-2000621760

Wow, gonna have to make a Switch 2 Pro.
I wouldn't even be getting this game period, but especially not for Switch 2. Outlaws already kind of ran like ass from the start, but I am surprised From could not get Elden Ring to run good on the system. Considering the specs for the console are the equivalent of a PS4 to PS4 Pro-Lite.

It's going to be a long minute before I even think about getting a Switch 2.

Quite the lowball for the most wishlisted game on Steam! I've paid much more for lesser games. Hopefully this upsets pricing conventions for overhyped/overfunded indies.

Orrr game is significantly smaller than hollowknight and they want to be able to go "well it was cheap"

For the record, Hollow Knight cost and still costs $15 US, so I don't think that argument holds water, either in the hypothetical case that Team Cherry is relying on it, or as your own line of thought.
