You'd think digital only would work economically. I guess the localization investement is too risky for a small publisher. And large publishers are probably too scared of gettign sued for having material that is too close to the source material.

Who knows. I think the game may have just been too difficult of a concept for a lot of people to understand. It's sort of based on a TV show in Japan right? So it had that going for it over there. In the West, it may have been asking too much of people to get them to buy into a concept of, "you play old school video games that weren't real games, but have been made to feel like they were games from the 80's, and you have to fulfill special challenges to unlock new old games that weren't really old games." And my memory may not be super sharp, but I don't remember Xseed doing much of anything to promote the game. I only stumbled across the game because of a really good IGN review.  Wish someone would take a gamble on it. The original was one of my favorites on the DS.

Cretainly i my top 5 on the DS... maybe not, there are a lot fo good DS games.

As for the marketing, they did print ads, there was one in EGM. It made it look like it was a compilation of old games, so I am deadset sure most people went "this is a compilation of games I have no nostalgia for".

The director of Uncharted 4 left! What the butt fuck shit is going on?!?!?!

I love this line from SCEA:

UPDATE: SCEA says “the development timeline of Uncharted will not be impacted.”

What in the fuck, so the creative director and game director were there for shits and giggles. Oh they left, no one noticed, game goes on as planned. NO that does not happen. Uncharted 4 has zero chance of coming out this year.

How does this happen, no one else is leaving, the rumor is that Druckman is the one pissing everyone off. Congrats you made a fantastic game, doesn’t give you the right to be an ass.

So who is directing Uncharted 4? And the game has to be basically done. All the voice work has to be done. What will this new director do but try to finish someone else’s vision.

The mass exodus of Sony continues.

This year? I had no hope of it coming out until Thanksgiving 2015.

A few months ago I swore I read something about Sony creating a rewards program that would allow gamers to exchange their gold and platinum trophies for other things. I haven't seen anything about it since though. Was that real or have I been imaging all of that?

All in your head.

With no context I'm reading a very heavy homoerotic subtext into this post.

Who the fuck is Pete Dodd?

Just a guy. He has his own podcast, he's known as famousmortimer. People credit him with MS dropping always online. He's been on the playeronepodcast a few times.  Seemed liek a very normal dude, but apparently according to GAF he's now a terrible monster who steals medicine from sick children.

Oh this one too:

context = public show prep

Dude, I'll podcast with you but not perform homoerotic acts in public with you.

Well I read some of your prepwork, and am feeling even less aroused by the whole prospect than I was before. But it's 2:30.
