Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 sells 3.3 million copies in 33 days, in case you needed any more evidence we're living in a simulation | PC Gamer WWW.PCGAMER.COM 33.3 percent, recurring, of course, chance of good sale figures.

This game is out in a couple of weeks and is in its last big publicity drive - it seems to be The Day Before meets GTA or some crap. There's been a few heavily scripted gameplay trailers which have looked generic as hell and according to testers, the game in its current state is monumentally bugged whereby cheats have to be enabled to bypass missions and bugged scenes. The game seems to be playing on the fact this is directed by washed ex Rockstar big shot Leslie Benzies but everything about it screams cheap asset flip. There's still hope that things could change but it's not looking very encouraging so far.

I think it's Sony pulling the strings and calling the shots. Kinda defies belief that they thought Concord and Marathon would be two massive online service hits🤣 It's also weird that they've chose to leech off of Bungie's sci-fi trilogy of the 90's for this guff and not do something original or a stronger classic brand maybe in the Destiny universe. Also just seen Marathon has an art book in the works - wonder if they will pull this seeing that a large part of their work (including part of the cover art) has been lifted from an 8 year old Twitter post. The game will cost £35-$40 which is the final nail in the coffin.

Metal Gear Solid 3 Remake - Now Confirmed!

I think so. He deserves to stay and although this is the worst domestic season I have ever witnessed, you can't really sack a manger who delivers such a big trophy and it would be very damaging for the reputation of the club at what should be a period of celebration. We all remember the Mourinho debacle where he was sacked just before the League Cup Final he helped Spurs get into and the horrible knock-on effect that had on and off the pitch for years. I did think Ange should go regardless, a couple of months back but I think there is a much more positive vibe around the club and this season in the league could just be written off instead. It should be a huge confidence-boosting thing and it's also a good fuck you to the media and the banterers. It'll be tough for him to build a Champions League worthy team in such a short space of time and it will be very costly but any sign of an upturn would be a huge positive. If it continues like this into the new campaign where Spurs are rooted to the basement then he probably will have to go but he will still leave a legend. The recruitment team will need to buck up their ideas and Levy will have to dig even deeper.

Absolute legends! Wasn't pretty or easy but Spurs defended really well and scored when it mattered. Arsenal wont get over this very easily🤣

It'll be very interesting to see what happens with Marathon's plagiarism situation because it seems a lot of the stolen assets make up quite a big portion of the details that compliment the art style. They are supposedly conducting a full asset audit and investigation, and I wouldn't be surprised if this game gets delayed even with it not coming out for another 4 months or so. If they can't find a resolution in this respect then they'll either have to whip up something quick or leave the game looking plain. It'll be shite either way. What's going to sink this game even more from a community standpoint is the amount of AI slop and contractors involved. Bungie used to be about the craft, innovation, vision and the team but now it's all about cost-cutting, property theft and temp employees to fill in gaps before AI finishes papers over the cracks. At this stage, being creatively bankrupt would be a massive improvement for them. Not only will they be going toe to toe with Arc Raiders, they are also being branded 'Art Raiders' as the humiliations and bad PR continue. Former staff have begun speaking out against management in the past few years and it's not good hearing that either.

Best Opening Intro to a Video Game
J4MES OX4D replied to GazzaGarratt's topic in General Gaming Discussion
MGS2 had a pretty awesome intro and Deus Ex -
This 'enhanced' edition is an absolute disgrace. Alarm bells were ringing going into the game seeing a 'mostly negative' rating and boy oh boy did they hit the mark. Graphics are blurry as hell maxed out. Several things have been omitted and others have been censored. No reason to play this over even the vanilla original. What a disappointment but this is where the industry is at these days.

Was just gonna say the same thing ^^^^ Installing Shadow of Chernobyl right now

Another huge PR blow as Paul Tassi is seen as a huge Bungie supporter and optimist of games like this It’s Just Over For ‘Marathon’ WWW.FORBES.COM Marathon has always been teetered on the edge of future failure, but now that seems set in stone after recent events.

Plus the enhanced editions wont overwrite the classics which is great. Any other AAA company would've removed the originals from sale and replaced them with broken AI outsourced garbage costing £49.99.

'The vibes have never been worse' Bungie's morale is reportedly in 'free fall' following its art theft fiasco | PC Gamer WWW.PCGAMER.COM Devs also claim they have been often ignored by the studio's "good old boy" leadership regarding the overarching design. I still can't believe Bungie are in this position compared to where they were a decade ago. I always knew leaving Activision would be a monumental mistake when they had it so comfortable there. They were cocky dickheads after the breakaway and were instantly barely sustainable going it alone with all the operating and future development costs to self-fund. Sony were always going to be the final nail in the coffin for them after the shamefully embarrassing takeover especially as their only thought is live service slop and milking dead horses. If only they turned their attentions to Destiny 3. They will sadly join BioWare. 343 aren't too far behind either as Halo is on its last legs two years into a ten year plan. Greed has crippled so many iconic studios.

Great PR once again Bungie as they are at it again Bungie confirms it stole art once again, will undertake a 'thorough review' of Marathon assets | PC Gamer WWW.PCGAMER.COM Update: Bungie lays the blame on a former artist. What's wrong with these big companies that they have to stoop so low? Maybe they could just move up in the world and use AI instead if they are that starved of basic ideas🤣

Reviews are coming in and the game is out shortly. Seems to be a fairly positive reception. At £70 for the base-game, I think I will wait for a very deep sale. Absolutely Absurd pricing.
