DS is like if Eurotruck Simulator had a story mode. And it’s about ghosts and babies.

Dreamcast had more games in its short lifespan than N64. The problem wasn’t software support.

I believe the problem was poor marketing. Especially after the failure of Saturn. Everybody was looking forward to PS2.

What a legend!

A few years ago it was sensational when someone managed to clear a few levels in max speed. Now all max speed levels have been beaten.

What’s next for NES Tetris? Feels like it’s more of an endurance game now.

I think Mega Man 2 is easy compared to many other games from that era. It’s one of the few NES games I’ve beaten without save states or cheats.

Battletoads on the other hand…

Coming from ER to DS3 I think DS3 is much easier. I didn’t put much thought into my build and it was a breeze. I beat many bosses first try.

Much of the difficulty in ER comes from the often hard to telegraph attacks.

I haven’t played Plucky yet, but this is what I liked about Tunic. It gives you a hint, and then trusts the player to experiment with the hint they’re given. It makes it feel like your own adventure.

It was featured in a PlayStation showcase last year. The most notable part of the trailer was a burger. I’m not kidding.

Joseph Anderson has made a similar trolley challenge. It’s a cinematic masterpiece: https://youtu.be/RgqRIFj4Zrk

Right now I’m mostly using the Xbox One controller (on PC). It’s a controller that feels really good to hold. No weird gimmicks like motion control either. I think it’s one of the all time greats.

Runner up is GameCube.

It’s probably not even the artists fault it turned out this shit. My gut feeling is that the game is victim of incompetent leadership. Indecisiveness on important matters and micro management on stupid things.

It’s also the same incompetent leadership who will get bonuses and promotions after this.

Shit in terms of having no players and being pulled back after just two weeks.

From what I understand, the game itself was alright. It had no major technical or gameplay problems. At least the team of programmers and game designers were competent.

The main issue is that the game was incredibly unappealing, and I believe this can only come from poor leadership.

Steam stats are the only stats available, and they probably correlate pretty well with console stats.

Helldivers 2 is doing really well on Steam despite being a PlayStation game.

I’m surprised so many say they never heard about it. It was all over the place when a gameplay trailer was shown a few years ago. David Jaffe even made a video about how he didn’t understand the hype, and then took it all back once the trailer reached the boss fight.
