There are a lot of things about Giant Bomb that I miss, but I've accepted that those things were part of an era and will likely never return. Clearly, the cast has no intention of doing the office t...

I was able to play a decent amount of good games in 2024, the latest being the new Indiana Jones game just released. But I haven't played nearly as many games that came out this year like I normally ...

@bigsocrates: Yeah, there are certainly those types as well. It makes me wonder if the next couple of seasons of the HBO television series will follow the second game as faithfully as they did the fir...

One story example is Joel's character in the Last of Us games. Many fans treat him like he was a hero, which is why so many were pissed by what happened to him in the second game. However, Joel after...

Sounds good. It's nice to see that the site is not completely abandoned, and new features are being added.

I picked 16-20, but really 10-14 is also a really solid number for a new fighting game. But it's more so about the quality of the fighters than the overall number. The reason Street Fighter 2 is now a...

I picked:1. Concord: The amount of time and effort that went into making that game, which wasn't bad in any way, only for it to get quickly shut down because it didn't hit the ground running, is somet...

@atheistpreacher:Your story reminds me a lot of what I had to go through with Call of Duty Modern Warfare III earlier this year, when I tried to play it after it came to Game Pass. I went through pret...

It's not a shock the internet is now a very toxic place no matter where you go. Remember, the reason Elon Musk bought Twitter, is because the people in charge of it at the time, were banning a lot of ...

Ubisoft has had one of the worst years for a gaming developer. And I fear Assassin's Creed Shadows won't change their fortunes. The lesson here is that the live service market is sowed up, and trying ...

Yeah, this year has been pretty bad for AAA games overall in terms of the number of them. I'm struggling to come up with a top 10 GOTY list. I still have FF7 Rebirth and Persona 3 Reload at the top, d...

So it's basically, Love, Death, and Robots, but based around video game stories and lore? I'm down. Since I'm a fan of LDR, even though the first season of that show is still the best.

Say what you want about him, he was the general who led the PS4 to victory against the Xbox One, before the war even took place. He did his thing. And till this day, Microsoft hasn't recovered from ...

@shindig said:Just skimming through my reviews for the year to see if anything jumps out at me.Tekken 8 for best narrative seems like a stretch but would you take that over Silent Hill 2? Beyond Gala...

@shindig said: "And now a moment to remember the trailers we've lost this year ..."Those Fear Effect Inferno trailers that led nowhere still hurt.

@brian_ said: Not to get into another game I haven't played, but wasn't their some criticism going around about FF VII Rebirth fumbling it's ending or something when it came out? That's the one I was ...

I disagree with Final Fantasy VII Rebirth not being nominated, because it's based on an old game and a narrative. For starters, the story is expanded, adding a lot of plot that wasn't in the original ...

All I will say is that most games and media in general are middle of the road. Good enough, but not great. 7/10 is supposed to mean good, while 6/10 is supposed to mean mediocre, meaning more of the s...

@superslidetail: If you're looking for an OLED, yeah, they are still up there. But many others brands like Sony, Panasonic, and some others have caught up in terms of quality. My go-to site and YouTub...

Good point about electronics possibly going up big time under Trump, because he is currently stacking his cabinet with anti-China war hawks. So I believe those tariffs are coming. Though my TCL 6 Seri...
