Bugs, for one. So many, many bugs. Bugs that remained unfixed for years.

Also, graphics. I don’t mean fidelity, because fidelitywise they were pretty good for the time. I mean the complete change in art style. Anything forerunner became riddled with lines that made the designs overly busy. The reuse of Reach assets instead of actually remaking the assets to match the original game. Its like at that point, are they even remastering the game? Not to mention how many changes to the environment models were inaccurate enough to cause players to try to shoot through or walk through invisible collision geometry of the original game.

Its so unfortunate that 343 messed up CE Anniversary so badly. But at least they did a lot better with Halo 2 Anniversary (though that is also not without its issues).

Now with a rebrand to Halo Studios, which was 100% caused by their poor stewardship of the series and the ruining of their own reputation beyond redemption, 343 will have to super-over-deliver with whatever they come out with next.

And I pray it is not a CE Remake. They messed it up already once before, just leave it alone and do something different with Halo. Make ODST 2 or some new story about a new Spartan entirely, I am tired of my favorite characters and stories being butchered these days.

Is it stealing though? Theft, as it is legally defined, requires depriving the original owner of the thing you are stealing. Stealing a car for example, means the owner cannot drive the car since you have it.

If you could take someone else’s car, but they still have access to their car as if it was never taken, is that really stealing?

I have used it. Played Metroid Prime 3, which is probably the best implementation of motion controls by far in any game.

I still would prefer using a normal controller with no motion controls. I would really prefer a trackball on a controller, but that likely won’t happen.

I would prefer if gyros and accelerometers die off in controllers for gaming. Tilting and shaking the controller is not something I have ever enjoyed, except when the controller is a light gun for a game like Time Crisis or Silent Hill The Arcade.

I will try it as long as it doesn’t require a PSN account. I enjoy Shift Up’s other game, arcade shooter Goddess of Victory NIKKE, so I am curious to see their other forrays into gaming.

He got upset at the Yuzu developers for dropping support for Windows 7, and after throwing a tantrum in a GitHub Issue report, he directly emailed Nintendo and their legal team with a massive word salad directly linking to Yuzu. Multiple times. Then within around a month or two Nintendo initiated a lawsuit.

This article was written by Luke Plunkett, who used to work at Kotaku. Some of his past articles include real whiz-bangers like: “Oh No, There Are Women In Battlefield”, and “There Is No Saving Cyberpunk 2077.” That pretty much tells you everything you need to know.

Sensationalist e-begging for clicks with ragebait articles. Nothing new from a former Kotaku employee.

We lost Yuzu because of a Windows 7 user. Whoever that guy was, he deserved this.

So they only expected to sell 100?

The fact that this game is $20 is kinda criminal. It is a really good game.

No online interaction is going to be as harmful as a product exploding and taking out your eye. Except in the case of children and pedos, perhaps. But in that case, most responsibility (all, in my opinion) is on the parents to monitor their child’s online gaming. Additionally, a system that doesnt require PSN accounts that monitors in game chat for words and phrases that flags for human interception could easily be implemented. Something like that could be caught quickly and dealt with easily before actual damage occurs.

You mean Maple Story?

Horse Armor/Bethesda was not the solitary cause of what we have today, even if it was pretty ridiculous.

To be fair, Totoki has a bit of a point when it comes to safety concerns, as PlayStation will be required to oversee interactions between players in its multiplayer games, but that doesn’t really explain why single-player games force players to create PSN accounts.

What ever happened to “Online interactions are not rated by the ESRB” and “Online interactions may lead to a different or unintended experience” and other such concepts?

I mean, this is pretty rich coming from one of the most hackable companies in history. But still.

Yes, if you ignore the fact that Nintendo has very deep pockets and Japanese courts are very bribable.

The most disgusting part of this is that all of these patents were filed this year, meaning their only purpose is for giving Nintendo an avenue to sue Pocket Pair.

Ive been using this in beta, and it has been phenomenal. Absolutely love this feature.

Okay, maybe I will be buying the game afterall. As long as “No Denuvo” doesn’t mean “no denuvo, but we added a different DRM instead.” Except Steam’s built in DRM, I guess. It doesn’t seem to negatively effect the performance in my Steam games.

As a fan of the books, the movie was pretty bad. The only good parts I can recall were the CG, and the actors who played Tars Tarkus and Kantos Kan. Everyone else in the film was mid to bad.

The American mainstream news media has been obsessed with pushing/covering politics for the last 6 or 7 months, and both political parties are giving the media massive stockpiles of ammo for ragebait-fuelled ad revenue. Why would they ever cover video games, something mainstream media outlets have historically blamed some of the worst tradgedies in American history on, when it will neither give them free ad revenue, nor continue to villanize video games?
