I read that it wasn’t really that fun to be a tester back then and especially now. Imagine having to play a level over and over and over again, then having to fill out sheets about what is wrong with it.

And that infamous commercial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRWvfMLl4ho really oversold it.

He’s looking like the Anti-Gaben Newell in that picture there.

See: Mick Gordon.

GTA VI I feel is going to stretch about 4 generations of gaming before ever seeing VII.

GTA V has started in the PS3/360 era, went through the PS4/One era, is sitting in the PS5/X era and we’re now about 2-3 years away from the next gen of gaming to happen.

Also it is hard for me to believe we got both GTA IV and GTA V in the same generation.

He’s just mad that he’s not as good at making game engines like Id, Valve and even Epic did.

Really? People are going to make a huge deal out of not being able to play “Incest Daughters BDSM”? Is that how far we’ve fallen off of the wagon as to what games we prioritize in getting removed? Fucking really?

Anyone who is in such an uproar about that kind of quality being removed, ought to get your priorities in check.

This is my birth month and I was looking forward to picking up this bundle for my birthday. But, I wasn’t impressed with the selections here.

WWE2K25, the quality of the series has slipped, year after year. They are the only game series I know of, that can’t even make hair graphics look good. Destiny 2, this is just a glorified DLC/MTX-feely kind of package, for an otherwise FREE game. Return to Monkey Island feels like a shallow cash-grab, I hate that art design. Grapple Dog looks like just a cheapo game, not bundle-worthy.

Everything else doesn’t appeal to me. Hell, there weren’t even any games that both could benefit me or anyone I know that’d like a copy of. That is when I knew this bundle sucked. Ruined the birthmonth mood for me. Fucking IGN…

Stupid.

Instead of you know, taking the games that were good on that system and re-releasing them as they should have been. They do this.

This was the system that made Nintendo so ashamed, they wouldn’t even address or know of its existence until years later.

Every year, many games are disappearing, for various reasons. Every game that disappears from distribution is potentially lost to game preservation efforts. It is particularly worrying when games are potentially vanishing due to external pressure."

More like, video game companies can give a shit less about preservation unless it is making them money. They don’t care. And if anyone thinks that they care with all of the remasters/remakes they manage to make, that is only banking on your nostalgia and that is hand picked by them as to what they decide is worth making profit on. Sadly it works and sadly, they won’t bother with every game so I would stop getting your hopes up by now on video game companies in doing that.

And anyone is even lucky that video game companies lift a finger on aged copyrights that take decades somehow for them to get to, despite them raking in billions a year. You would think money would talk there but nah, just their laziness and carelessness.

Either wait for sales or just stop crying with these poorly constructed takes already, most of us have been telling you for years about this. It is entirely on you.
