I'm skeptical of this. The verbage seems a bit too..... fanboyish.

Jesus H, Embracer, at least see if you can find a buyer. Have a fuckin fire sale or something.

In ramping up to full production, the massive scope of our ambition became clear. To release and support The Last of Us Online we’d have to put all our studio resources behind supporting post launch content for years to come, severely impacting development on future single-player games. So, we had two paths in front of us: become a solely live service games studio or continue to focus on single-player narrative games that have defined Naughty Dog’s heritage. Translation: "We didn't wanna fuckin do this. Jim was makin us fuckin do this. We don't wanna support this shit for the next five years. We just don't wanna fuckin do it. Fuck Jim. Fuck 'em."

I got excited from the topic and thought the PS5 had a hidden Roomba mode.

Oh god can you imagine the causeway?

Austin is a shit show anywhere near downtown and expensive as hell, and Dallas is not near anyone. San Antonio is relatively inexpensive and way more accessible for most of the state. And the show would've been successful enough with JUST the people from Texas. It is kind of large. I agree that the big publishers were sparse. I think one year Capcom was there with Resident Evil 7 and Monster Hunter and then Sony had a pretty cool Days Gone booth one year, but yeah after that it was mainly indie devs, which was also cool. But that said, that's PAX's job to sell publishers on why they should be there. Just like it was the ESA's. When they said they weren't growing, it was their own fault. I remember the way they worded the statement, it sounded like it was due to lack of attendance, and that certainly wasn't the case.

wow.. this going to be sad. *looks* Yep.

I did, and I quite enjoyed it. Never played it much past the end of the story though. The chick with the bow would say something every time her shot cast a certain spell, and it got so fucking annoying i started to play the game on mute. But yeah, other than that, pretty fun.

I've been sniffing my electronics since the early 80's, and will continue to do so, thank you.

Kinda reminds me of PAX South. I live in Texas and we don't get shit for gaming conventions, so I was super excited for PAX. I went every single year, and every single year it was packed. But I noticed the final year they did it that it had kinda been the same shit for the past two years. When they finally killed it they said that it "hadn't reached the growth that they had wanted" or some bullshit like that. All I could think was "who's fault is that?" Because they had an entire state, and fucking large one at that, that was chomping at the bit every year.

Yep, I was sitting in our tiny shoebox apartment when I got the DM on the IGN boards to tell them to fuck off and come over to Bad Cartridge. My profile says I joined on Dec 31, 2010 which sounds about right. I got married in Oct. of 2010 which explains the tiny shoebox apartment.

That is true. They won't mourn my loss, and I will find what I'm looking for elsewhere. I didn't say they MUST make it like the old Zeldas. I said I'd be fine with it if they did.

Ya know, I used to go to this one Italian restaurant and I'd get the chicken cacciatore, every time. One time, one of the servers that knew me as a regular, said to me, "You order the same thing every time you come in here. You should try something different for a change." I told them I try different things all the time, but I go there when I want chicken cacciatore. Same goes with Zelda. I'd be perfectly fine if they went back to the traditional LoZ style of adventure game. BotW and TotK wasn't it.

More like Xbox has been really supportive of Sega. It's interesting because these "small" games like Streets of Rage, Shinobi, Golden Axe, etc are the opposite of what big publishers want nowadays. I wouldn't be surprised if they do pop onto Game Pass day one, and I also wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft partially funded their development. Pure speculation on my part, but MS and Sega have been pretty cozy with each other ever since those photos popped up making it look like MS was gonna buy them.

Yep. And it was repetitive as hell.

The annoying thing about the idea of a new Crazy Taxi is that with today's tech, the city could be gigantic with randomly generated destinations, thus reducing the repetiveness, but you know it won't lol. Can't wait to go to KFC five times in a row.

I think this is the first Mana game actually coming to Xbox.

If the Golden Axe Amazon isn't wearing a chain mail bikini....

I was in Best Buy yesterday and they have Crisis Core FFVII for Xbox/PS5 for about $20. I never played CC so I'm not real familiar with it, but I remember people really liking it back on PS2 or PS Vita or whatever it was on. Is it a good one? Is the combat like FFVII Remake cuz I didn't care much for it.

The one that got me most excited was No Rest For The Wicked. The art direction on that was right up my alley. I'm also kind of excited for the Jurassic Park Survival game, but I have to admit the whole "i was left on the island" angle kinda bugged me, especially since they're showing that it took place immediately after the first movie. Like, where was she while the entire movie was happening? Did she sleep through that shit? Was she left behind by the final boat during the storm, or the helicopter that rescued Grant, Ellie, etc.? Because technically that would mean she got left twice. Don't count on this chick to be on time for literally anything.

I'm so torn on whether I want to watch, or just wait till it's over and get the cliff notes. I don't give two shits about the awards.

Yeah it took us probably about 15 tries. Most of that was trial and error though trying to memorize the cube movement pattern. We divided the sides and he took the right while I took the left. Once we were able to get a feel for the patterns on our cubes we were able to get through it.
