Hosts Dandr0id and Jack McBastard talk about the return of "classic" game, Takeshi's Challenge, as well as the dichotomy of profitability versus critical acclaim.
Fallout London hasn't exactly had an ideal launch—crashing issues have been reported by players—but overall reaction is still posititve.
Console Creatures writes, "The BioShock film at Netflix is still happening but with a reduced budget."
It's 10 years too late for a BioShock film. The world of Rapture would have been perfect for a film. It's actually a good candidate for proper utilization of 3D, for increased depth rather than bullshit popping out of the screen. It could really show off the underwater city that way. But BioShock as a brand is so irrelevant these days that a film just doesn't make sense. Especially considering it would need a big budget and top notch effects to really take advantage of the IP.
Netflix greenlights anything, so that shows me very little faith in the project. Enough to just crap something out as they're, more and more, known to do.
I'll laugh if it turns out to be better then the Borderlands movie
The Pokemon Company had retail sales worth of 10.8 billion US Dollars in the year 2023, based on the latest report.
that merch tho.
ridiculous the numbers they pull in, which makes it even worse when i think about the low budget broken games they make. or have made recently

His dislike goes beyond just gamers it's about tech and disconnect etc. This has been brought up in multiple interviews and articles over the years (Under stage and real name).
I think this would be a good example as to why he has an issue with such things. Tsk Tsk.
and now look at him in yakuza 6. lel
