Anthem has finally been put out of its misery. BioWare’s Anthem will go down in history as a mighty example of how to fail at jumping on a bandwagon. Its development was rushed and poorly planned, its release was mediocre, and its subsequent slow death was almost pitiful. And what’s…
We have three big ol’ subjects for you today! After unlocking the secrets of Frog Purse, of course. After that, let’s talk about Google being horrible to its Stadia developers. As well as that, we’ll talk about the responses to Nintendo Direct and Blizzconline. We wrap things up with the…
People who use bots to buy up game consoles and resell them for a ridiculous markup are apparently sad that people hate them. This is funny, because they deserve to be hated. Let’s take a look at the way these opportunists portray themselves, and have some fun discussing why they’re…
Patenting game mechanics is bad. It’s bad. It’s simply bad. So is Google Stadia, and we’re going to talk about both Google’s failings and Warner Bros. Interactive’s patent hoarding. Google ceases Stadia game development, Shadow of Mordor’s Nemesis System becomes WB’s sole dominion, AND we get to take a look…
So there’s really only one thing to talk about this week, and that’s the whole mess that happened with GameStop and Wall Street. It’s pretty much a perfect look at the wider problems we regularly discuss. When the ultra wealthy find their positions challenged, they have little problem demonstrating that…
Another normal one today! We chat about Euro Truck Simulator vaccinating itself against controversy, we say goodbye to the FCC chairman that nobody liked, and we discuss Activision making money thanks to a global pandemic. Now I am going to brace for impact. No reason. Also, Floridus Snake.
New year, new me, and an all-new Jimquisition for you to stuff down your stinkin’ gullets! This week, we’ve packed four stories into one hot video, and I am very pleased with how an anthological Jimquisition turned out. In today’s blistering offering, we talk about the latest Cyberpunk 2077 chicanery,…
In this game about being the devil, you can do jumping, you can do driving, you can do getting stuck in closets, and you can do nothing. #PC #Steam #SteamDirect #SquirtyPlay #JimSterling #Gameplay #Games #Videogames #Indie
Everything is completely normal.
With 2020 now safely in the rear view, we can all start dreading 2021 and its inevitable horrors. First, let’s take one positive break and look back at the games of 2020 that won our hearts. Could Fall Guys make the cut? The Last of Us Part 2? Animal Crossing?…
Here is Phantast, it’s a game you can look at. You wouldn’t think it at first glance, but it’s a game about genocidal land seizure in which the persecutors are the heroes. At least that’s the way I’ve chosen to read it.
It’s that miserable time of the year once again. 2020 has been a hellscape of dread and confusion, but there is one thing you can always rely upon – the annual rundown of the crappiest nonsense games can offer. From Marvel’s Avengers to the horrendous XIII Remake, we look at…
