  I think in Sony’s case a reasonable alternative is to just refund, which is what they’re doing anyways. There’s no way a full refund would not be considered a true option, so I think the Concord side is a bit irrelevant to the primary issue of server owners shutting down servers for old games and keeping the money.

  Cheating is definitely a problem in SF6, but it’s a lot less of a challenge dealing with it due to match duration. You generally move on to different opponents fast enough, unless of course you’re at the highest ranks.

  Still agree that kernel level anti-cheat does nothing here, and I also won’t be buying it due to that reason.

  Introversion still exists and wasn’t sold, they’re making a somewhat similar game now - The Last Starship.

  With newer versions of Steam, it’s just handled automatically as long as you enable it, you can download from other players on the network. True not all games are on steam, and this probably works well for massive LAN setups, but I tried and failed to set this up, it’s a bit of a pain and personally found it not worth the effort.

  Let’s be honest the people who would defend their ROI have lost interest in defending it to the unwilling. Star Citizen has become a cat call to all the haters whenever it’s posted in general gaming (namely r/games and c/games now) communities. The only way the narrative changes is by showing not telling, and that only happens with further polishing like this article is covering, and in future release.

  There is a reason they’ve successfully increased pledge numbers year over year, you just don’t hear from people outside that community due to this stigma that’s not worth bothering to explain.

  Is it still a scam if everyone gets their money back?

  This just feels more like incompetence rather than malice.

  Lagoon (SNES, Premonition, such a banger.

  Believe it or not, but the Switch has a touch screen.

  What is Fortnite OG? I rerelease of the original mode or something?

  This looks excellent and I can’t wait to see more.
