I've been a member of this site for almost 3 years now and, at one time, it was a pretty cool place to go and share excitement for a game or console or developer. Gradually, it's dwindled to stories like:
Kinect: It sucks?
Move: It sucks?
MS: Killed Michael Jackson
Sony: We eat American babies
Nintendo: *cricket chirps*
Kinect: Gave birth to Jesus
Move: Innovation the likes of the the wheel
Now, this isn't necessarily an N4G problem. It's a community problem. I've played my part. I've trolled. I've let comments piss me off and reply for the sake of being a dick. To summarize, I've been part of the problem. For as long as I've played games, that should be all that matters. Not the corporation behind game or platform. We are all doing the same thing, playing games. I'll start by not being a dick. Now let's discuss the new motion stuff, the new announcements, the rumors, etc and keep this ridiculous "war" out of it. Let's have fun, remember what that was like?

Stellar Blade might be the hot game right now, but we already got a better version of it more than half a year ago.
Stellar blade is currently higher than lies of p on metacritic with 40 more reviews. No shade on Lies of P but just pointing that out.
But i don't even know why compare them? Because both are souls type games?
Then you can just reuse this article all the time and say Elden Ring is "whatever new souls game" but good for every new souls game.
Stellar blade hate articles must be rolling with clicks...
I mean… it’s like saying we have a better NieR with Devil May Cry. Yea, there’s some similarities, but Lies is really hardcore in the sense of emulating a FromSoft game almost perfectly, where Stellar has some Souls-like elements, but I’d say it’s closer to Sekiro than say a Dark Souls game. This almost feels click-baitey
Fallout 4 is now available on next-gen consoles, offering 60fps gameplay and 4K resolution. But it's bad news if you claimed the game on PS Plus.
Probably won't happen for PS+ since Sony makes a clear distinction between a PS4 game and a PS5 game, unlike PC and Xbox where it is not a specific device game (It's now always an Xbox game).
So to make the PS5 game of fallout 4 available. Bethesda would need to renegotiate the complete deal with Sony.
hence why there's often only the PS4 version of the game available on PS+.
Let's hope Bethesda and Sony can arrive to term quickly.
Bubbles, I'm glad your blog wasn't a pseudo-intellectual post like so many others try to be. Too true about the B.S, fun is all that matters, it's sad that people verbally abuse other people for buying different brand $#!+, people just don't behave like that in real life, it's sad that the internet has provided a soap box for the only children of the world to take it out on everyone else.
Good to see gamertags from 3 platforms, I think you are in the minority on this site though, as you said, everyone else has chosen a 'team' to barrack for...
I'm starting to warm more to motion games. Some of them really do look fun. I just hope it's not short lived like wii sports was for me.
Back to being a gamer. So Game On Action Bastard.
More power to you AB. People are so caught up in this stupid War, that they've forgotten what the hell we're doing here in the first place. At the beginning of the day, we come here because we're gamers, because we play games, on every platform. And at the end of the day, we're all still gamers.
But it's as you said, the internet has provided a means for all the little Men-Children and Boys to come out and behave badly, in ways that they wouldn't DARE to in people's faces.
Keep on Truckin' bro. When it comes down to it, you're having fun gaming, and their having fruitless arguments about what has the "best graphics EVAR".

This battle over products isn't being fought by the consumer, but by the recipients of said product. It seems that the self pride of working hard for something has been lost and replaced by jealousy, because you are stuck with the card dealt to you. I don't understand the reasoning for the straight out hatred between them though. When I was that age and was given a car, I didn't shout down the street at the other kids saying that their car sucks. I was just happy to have wheels, and a way to the beach for my friends and I.
I rather not
