Joanna Mueller writes: "Unable to sway their political viewpoint, outraged gamers took to Metacritic to instead attack their game. The PlayStation 4 version of 2064: Read Only Memories has been flooded with negative reviews. Most seem to only criticize the game directly, but there are a few who are openly punishing the developers."
Narrative adventure 2064: Read Only Memories, which has been downloaded by more than 1 million gamers, expands to print today as issue #1 of the Read Only Memories (ROM) comic becomes available online and in brick and mortar stores.

I'm glad Nioh wasn't true. I already have it.
And Friday The 13th is more of a score for me than Sniper Elite.
I have Nioh and platinumed Diablo, so i didn't want the first "leak" to be true. And Sniper Elite 3 ultimate is on PS Now with download option.
Forgot about the Diablo part of the rumor. Yeah, I have it already too.
@KwietStorm:
There was a time when i cared, but could care less now. I never said, Give us God Of War, but i have said i didn't like the choice of games.
How much time and money do you think Nioh, A 2017 GAME, took to make?
spoiled brats.
I had thought Gravity Rush Remastered might be on offer since I came across it in the PS store and it had a PS Plus free label, it had a price when I clicked on it however.
Not much point in giving out actual decent games for Oct/Nov, far too many huge games coming out soon!
Don't know what's scarier, your logic or the fact that 11 people so far agree with you. There is no point in giving out old games in Oct/Nov that are actually decent because there far too many games coming out soon? What if people don't want the games coming out? What if there budget doesn't allow them the good games? Why can't the standard be decent games every month, despite what's being released?
Is it actually bad? It has a score of 82 on Metacritic and was made by the OlliOlli guys. It does have couch mp so I'll have to give it a go at least. Friday the 13th is an odd choice given that they recently gave away Dead by Daylight but I suppose it is the month of Halloween
Not really a shocker, they walked right into it. Doesn't make it right, but boy!
The little bit I did play wasn't bad; could be better. Definitely not a 0 game, but not a 10 either. After this semester I plan on playing it again.
The customer is always right. Telling someone to "F*** off!" will get you a bad review no matter what kind of business you're running. I personally don't care about politics but I can't take any game developer serious who uses vile curse words so casually like that in the advertisement of their game.
Well I despise SJW's as much as the next person but is a low metacritic score really going to effect the game in any way?
Game devs have the right to voice their opinions and so does everyone else.
I'm actually happy when these things happen. It would suck if one side was quieted down or forcefully silenced... Then there would be a problem.
That being said. They can shove it. Don't want to play their game. And they deserve it. In the real world you don't get away with just telling someone to fuck off and expect them not to do anything. What a childish thing to say.
