I feel bad for Anita since she had no say in the title/wording of the article/cover. Only giving more fuel to her detractors.
That's a good list of free games if you ask me. Still shouldn't be necessary but it makes the whole thing a little easier to take.
Confirmed already.
I don't understand how someone can write that something has unacceptable techincal problems that completely ruin the user experience but then hand out a 9/10. I'm not saying Halo doesn't deserve 9s, etc. but that just seems like an odd score to give something after just mentioning its immense techincal flaws.
You don't remember the 3DS then do you?
I really hope these problems are sorted out soon, ideally this weekend.
I'm not picking sides but how are Phantom Dust, Scalebound and Crackdown 3, all games with only CG trailers, coming in 2015 but Uncharted 4, which will probably have gameplay shown at PS Experience in a few weeks, probably 2016? Your logic seems flawed. What is so 2016 about Uncharted when it was revealed 6-8 months before those other three you named?
I don't think its a big deal though Rockstar should have put male prostitutes into it to allow the same thing as well.
I'm all for feminism and more awareness of sexism in game design but it can't be promoting rape culture without actual rape. I don't understand the difference in first person, the prostitutes are still being paid for their services and still appear to be willing to do it, so its consensual.
Question: How will they do the scene where the guy gets eaten alive on the toilet?
Did anyone other than me read the article's title in Abe Simpson's voice?
Why are these stories consistently allowed on N4G? I get it, cool mods but its always a weak ploy to get clicks based on fans desperate for Elder Scrolls PS4/XB1 news. Often (not in this case) relies on a scantily clad female character too.
I figure they'll include both DLC packs on Mario Kart 8 retail copies fall 2015 so they can still justify the $50-$60 price tag, at least I'd imagine.
I feel like the term Feminazi is really insensitive to the 6 million plus Jews killed in WWII, not to mention all the other people killed by Nazi Germany. I mean, no one is getting physically hurt except the feminist women potentially via death threats that USUALLY don't go through but some do.
But go ahead, use hyperbole to relate strongly opinionated people with a regime that killed millions for being different.
Side One: We think there is a lot of sexism in the industry. Let's talk about.
Side Two: I don't want to talk about it! Stop changing what I love! Go away!
Side Three: I'm not as extreme as Side Two but I'm annoying by the recent emergence of the topic of sexism as a big chat piece in gaming journalism. I want just gaming news.
Pretty much three sides, with one being entirely unreasonable and the smallest, yet most vocal group...
I don't know about you but myself, my nieces, sisters and female friends care about how they're portrayed in games and the industry. How is the equality of a social group in an art form "stupid crap"? Do you tell that to every black, latino, female actor/actress when they complain about portrayals of their gender/race/ethnic group in TV/Film/Literature/Art?
I don't think this is about gamers wanting social injustice out of gaming journalism. That's like being white and American and wanting the "cops pick on blacks", "Minorities live at a disadvantage" commentaries off the news, the media, etc. Why would want it to go away? That's an important narrative that must be heard.
Of course you may not play a role in the sexism in the gaming industry or racism in art/media, maybe you are sick of hearing a...
Probably pick up all three. My guess would be Splatoon in March, Yoshi in April/May, and Mario Maker in June or delayed until August. Zelda in November, Xenoblade in October and a surprise or two. Think they'll be a new model of Wii U too. After all, they haven't made any units since 2013 it seems after the initial batch of 7-9 million units they thought they'd sell in FY2013. They have got to make new ones soon in 2015 and I imagine they'll cut stuff out of the new model (Wii...
Not taking a side but I'd argue the Xbox One reveal was far more damaging to the brand (look at how easily PS4 overtook MS's hometurf, the US with less exclusives out the gate, love both my PS4/XB1 don't jump down my throat) then some overpriced DLC and on-disc DLC for Destiny and Acti/Bungie
You probably aren't. The individuals who threaten to kill, rape and abduct people just because they have a different opinion on social issues in an art form are the ones who deserve such hateful remarks.
