  1. Take-Two Should Price GTA VI at “$80, or Even $100” to Help the Game Industry Rebound in 2025, Analyst Says

    That just proves my point. Name won't save your game if you cross the players. And I think charging $100 for a game ticks that box. Not to mention the rumblings about GTA going politically correct with VI.
  2. Take-Two Should Price GTA VI at “$80, or Even $100” to Help the Game Industry Rebound in 2025, Analyst Says

    I'm not so sure about the "it's GTA, it can get away with anything!" sentiment. A few months ago we thought Dragon Age can get away with anything, and now it is projected to have 3 million lifetime sales. I hope I don't have to elaborate on how abysmal that is. COD is also loosing players, just...
  3. Take-Two Should Price GTA VI at “$80, or Even $100” to Help the Game Industry Rebound in 2025, Analyst Says

    I think subscription services are damaging to the industry. But investors love them because it is a calculable stable income. You are not dependent on the failure / success of individual games. But this also means individual games become just "content" and success or failure is no longer a...

    Yeah, that will surely turn around the trend of games not selling.
  5. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Has Been “Fully Remade” by Virtuos in Unreal Engine 5 and Will Release in June with Improvements to Sneaking, Ar...

    What is even a well optimized UE game, since Epic is adding features that actively hamper optimization. There is zero chance that any mods will work. Completely rebuilt game on a new engine, I'm not even sure they are not going to lock down modding. Suicidal move sure, but we've seen companies...

    No, please just not the unreal engine, please! I don't want a stuttering mess that produces 27 fps on a 5090 without fakery.
  7. Assassin’s Creed Shadows Delayed to March 20, 2025 as Ubisoft Pledges a “High-Quality, Immersive Experience” for New Action RPG Set During 16...

    Wouldn't it be the exact job of sensibility consultants to avoid situations like this? Clearly the only sensibilities they care or know about are their own.

    No, I point out that you always played a native of the land. And before you say yeah but Valhalla actually takes place in England, the Viking raids on the British islands are well documented historical facts. It's not that one viking might or might not have passed through that one time, let's...

    Yeah nothing like immersing yourself in Japanese history by becoming a giant bumbling black dude rampaging through Japan, whose only claim to being a historical figure turned out to be a fabrication by a fraud. In Origin you played as an Egyptian, in Odyssey you played as a Greek, in Valhalla...
  10. HITMAN World of Assassination Reaches 75 Million Players Worldwide, Making It the Most Successful Hitman Game of All Time, IO Interactive Reveals

    Is this a mobile game? I never even heard about it, but it looks like a mobile game. And it's live service fomo based slop? Dear lord.
  11. NVIDIA DLSS 4 Features Detailed, Including DLSS Multi Frame Generation for GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs and New Transformer-Based DLSS Ray Reconstruc...

    So nvidia decided to advertise their new gpus with how badly they run games natively. But they can fake more effectively than last gen. Brilliant. Is your new car faster than the old one? No, but it seems faster due to the stripes painted on it :D
  12. Grand Theft Auto VI Will Make Over $3 Billion In Its First Year, Analysts Say: “Biggest Entertainment Launch of 2025”

    Weird that you remember it that way. If anything Vice City was an updated GTA3, with not much in new features just a different map and slightly updated graphics. San Andreas added a ton, like the turf wars, modding cars, among many others.
  13. Grand Theft Auto VI Will Make Over $3 Billion In Its First Year, Analysts Say: “Biggest Entertainment Launch of 2025”

    I disliked 1 & 2, liked 3, Vicy City, San Andreas & IV, then back to disliking V. 3 and VC are very much products of their time. I don't think they hold up to today's standards. Remaster or not if someone never played them before I think it is unlikely they'd like them now. San Andreas might...
  14. Grand Theft Auto VI Will Make Over $3 Billion In Its First Year, Analysts Say: “Biggest Entertainment Launch of 2025”

    I'm pressing X to doubt. I think most "analysts" are paid to give overly positive projections as part of the marketing. Why I think it won't be a blowout success: More gamers are adopting the "never pre-order" and "wait and see" mindset Most original creators who made GTA great have left...
  15. AI PCs Will Become the “New Normal” and Capture 60% of Total PC Shipments This Year as Windows 12 Launches in 2H 2025, Analysts Say

    My fear is using my data to build their models. With crap like recall running on your PC I don't believe we are fully in control anymore of our data. Just like Adobe granted themselves full unrestricted rights to your data in their EULA, MS will do the same. They don't give a frack that it is...
  16. AI PCs Will Become the “New Normal” and Capture 60% of Total PC Shipments This Year as Windows 12 Launches in 2H 2025, Analysts Say

    It's not whether it can have practical uses, but that the term AI has negative connotations. I doubt many people would willingly buy an "AI PC" unless it is forced upon them. I can see it existing like physx, nobody giving any mind to it. I don't think of my PC as a physx PC, despite it having...
  17. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 (32 GB) With “Gargantuan” Performance Will Launch After the GeForce RTX 5080 (16 GB), It’s Claimed

    UE5.6 comes out and it will be back to 1080p 30fps with DLSS performance mode :D
  18. Gordon Mah Ung, PCWorld Editor, Host of The Full Nerd, and Renowned Tech Journalist, Has Passed On at the Age 58

    I have not been following him at all, but from the few guest appearances I've seen, he seemed like a really good guy. It's sad to see anyone go, but it seems to me that the best people who have the most insight to contribute always pass way too early.
