- Comment on Untitled John Wick Game - Announce Trailer | PS5 Games 1 day ago:
It would be so fun if they keep the name “Untitled John Wick Game”, like Project Octopath Traveler.
- Comment on Remedy's new CEO is a former sports betting guy and EA executive who aims to 'scale Remedy in a way that builds lasting value' 4 days ago:
Oh, I won’t worry about that, even if things go bad, it’s an already established universe with lots of fans, perfect for their next live service game setting.

At the time I was sure Elop is some kind of undercover agent from Microsoft.
- Comment on "Benefit of the doubt" is a very important aspect of a game's success 1 week ago:
Heh, didn’t expect a golf joke here.

Thanks!

This doesn’t show me anything.
- Comment on Day 555 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 2 weeks ago:
Heh. I was just kidding. But it would be funny if you did skip some numbers and no one even noticed it 😁
- Comment on Day 555 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, it took quite a while to reach the one year milestone, but time seems to have sped up after that.
Are you sure you aren’t skipping numbers? Or posting twice a day? 😀
- Comment on Day 555 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 3 weeks ago:
555! 111 more for 666! 😀
Congratulations!

Unfortunately they won’t. They are earning tons of money.
- Comment on Day 547 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 4 weeks ago:
Yeah, (without knowing any of your circumstances) no need to rush to anything. Have fun!
- Comment on Day 547 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 4 weeks ago:
Good luck with the move! Moving out? Or just moving to some where else?
- Comment on Switch 2 Sales Reportedly Struggled Over The Christmas Period 5 weeks ago:
Not sure, I got the impression that all consoles sold worse than usual, but I didn’t actually dig deep into it.
- Comment on Switch 2 Sales Reportedly Struggled Over The Christmas Period 5 weeks ago:
Oh yeah, that last lines were about Switch 2 doing record sales in first year, not about the holidays sales, should have made it clear.
I agree with all your points about holiday sales, but I am not sure if it means that it’s momentum has slowed down or it just went down because of other expenses and stuff people wanted to buy over this period. Will be interesting if the sales go back up or if they keep going down.
- Comment on Switch 2 Sales Reportedly Struggled Over The Christmas Period 5 weeks ago:
The same is true of PlayStation and Xbox too (and has been for a decade or more). At least in US, don’t know about Europe. This is not to defend Nintendo, just saying that if that was the issue, it would effect all the consoles, and would have been effecting them for last many years. Average people don’t even know about these, and many probably don’t even care.
There might be more to this, but with the current economy, and consoles getting more expensive instead of cheaper as time goes on could be some of the reasons, IMO. And there weren’t much holiday sales this year.
First year sales are also generally limited by supply, not demand, so it will be interesting to see how Switch 2 does in its second and third years, specially if we do get next PS and Xbox next year.

I remember this area. And if I still remember it, must mean it was a tough area.
- Comment on Day 539 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 5 weeks ago:
If Max Payne wasn’t in the pic, it would’ve been pretty difficult to guess.
- Comment on Day 538 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 5 weeks ago:
Yeah, it’s a fun, some of the screenshots can be really tough to guess.
- Comment on Day 537 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 5 weeks ago:
Heh, an interesting way to play them.
- Comment on Day 537 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 5 weeks ago:
Why did you play Max Payne 2 before 1? This doesn’t sit right with me! 😀
- Comment on Day 535 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 1 month ago:
It is on my wishlist, glad to see you enjoying it.
- Comment on Day 511 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 2 months ago:
Heh, is 500cc the maximum you can do?
- Comment on Left 4 Dead co-creator is directing a mysterious co-op shooter for JJ Abrams' production company, and Sony's going to publish it: "We hope to deliver a bold, innovative experience" 2 months ago:
Not a huge fan of multiplayer games, but can be fun with friends.
As for people who don’t like live service games, Sony has mentioned multiple times that the budget for live service games is completely separate from single player games. The issue was that they previously put their good single player studios to making these games, as long as they get proper third party or specialised studios for these and leave their first party studios for first party, I am happy.
- Comment on Ron Gilbert cancels RPG project due to lack of support and funding 2 months ago:
“It’s either a passion project you spent ten years on, or you need a bunch of money to be able to hire people and resources”
- Comment on Day 501 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 2 months ago:
Yeah, that will also require more work and animations for each feature like this. Much easier to do in a game like this.
- Comment on Day 501 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 2 months ago:
Ah, okay. Thanks for the info!
- Comment on Day 501 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 2 months ago:
Heh, true. When I first looked at it after hearing so much about it I thought it was a wrong game.
- Comment on Day 501 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 2 months ago:
Wow, it’s weird to realise that there is so much depth and features in a game that look like this 😀
- Comment on Day 500 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 2 months ago:
Ooh, a day late but still, congratulations on 500 posts!
