So I guess Aftermath is the new Kotaku? Theyre hiring all the people that used to work there, and Kotaku didn’t exactly have the best reputation lately. I don’t see Aftermath’s angle where they think things will be better for them.

Literally the reason why VHS beat BetaMax, and the reason DVDs replaced VHS so quickly.

Good. I heard this version was pretty faithful to the original and did not opt to censor anything from the original.

That is how games that are remastered or remade should be done: as faithful as possible to the original with the absolute minimal changes necessary.

If developers want to have a remade story that makes a lot of changes, then include it as an alternate mode. As long as the original is faithfully recreated, I have no problem trying out a new way to play. But only including the new way to play rubs me the wrong way. Its like someone in development said “I know better than the original team, and my ‘better’ version is the only one people will get to play.” I steer clear of those.

Resident Evil Deadly Silence did this, where it had its own “Rebirth Mode,” along with “Classic Mode.” Literally all remakes and remasters should have this.

Of course we are using upscaling to mask poor performance at native 1080p. Why did I expect anything different?

Scenario A: Only do this if the recording you are ripping from is in the public domain. Otherwise you’re going to be paying fees

Scenario B: Most sound effects already in games are either made in-house by the developers or are from a licensed sound library. These are easily recognizable and if someone decides to check if you have the rights, youre going to be paying fines and penalties.

Scenario C: Same risk as above two scenarios.

Most of the time people don’t check or don’t care, but if they do you’d be paying out a lot for something that you easily could have avoided by either buying the license for the sound library or recording it yourself.

I have used it. Played Metroid Prime 3, which is probably the best implementation of motion controls by far in any game.

I still would prefer using a normal controller with no motion controls. I would really prefer a trackball on a controller, but that likely won’t happen.

I would prefer if gyros and accelerometers die off in controllers for gaming. Tilting and shaking the controller is not something I have ever enjoyed, except when the controller is a light gun for a game like Time Crisis or Silent Hill The Arcade.

Until you drop it on your face.

We’ve all done it.

Too bad its an extraction shooter and will die like the rest.

I would have bought this back when it was a 16 player coop PvE game. Now I won’t touch it wearing a hazmat suit.

OG? This isn’t a tower defense style mode, so how is it OG? New Wave OG?

That seems like a lot of RAM. I mean, I have 32GB, but it still seems on the high side.

I will try it as long as it doesn’t require a PSN account. I enjoy Shift Up’s other game, arcade shooter Goddess of Victory NIKKE, so I am curious to see their other forrays into gaming.

He got upset at the Yuzu developers for dropping support for Windows 7, and after throwing a tantrum in a GitHub Issue report, he directly emailed Nintendo and their legal team with a massive word salad directly linking to Yuzu. Multiple times. Then within around a month or two Nintendo initiated a lawsuit.

This article was written by Luke Plunkett, who used to work at Kotaku. Some of his past articles include real whiz-bangers like: “Oh No, There Are Women In Battlefield”, and “There Is No Saving Cyberpunk 2077.” That pretty much tells you everything you need to know.

Sensationalist e-begging for clicks with ragebait articles. Nothing new from a former Kotaku employee.

We lost Yuzu because of a Windows 7 user. Whoever that guy was, he deserved this.

Hopefully not to mask poor performance.

A video game does not need to be innovative to be fun.

Marathon is next.

It will have maybe a little better legs to stand on, but it will fail just the same. Bungie should have called it literally anything else, because I cannot think of any IP less suitable for a live service extraction hero shooter than Marathon.

With no barrel to really direct the velocity, wouldn’t it be more like attaching a tiny grenade or firecracker than a bullet? In that case the kickback force would be less than out of a regular rifle since the blast velocity is distributed in a radius and not in a singular direction.

Potentially, but at that point it probably would have lost its lethal velocity, so the worst that could happen is it gets stuck in your hair or falls into your shirt or something.
