I mean my god what a coincidence, I was playing GTA 6 beta earlier today

Grand Theft Auto 6 fans are pre-ordering the $100 Ultimate Edition more than the standard edition of the game.

People are fricking stupid and are the architects of their own destruction.

I still have no idea why anyone is pre-ordering a DIGITAL game to begin with.

Ultimate Edition may be worth getting when it's on sale for 70 or less.

It depends on what you want. CoD has a better "feel" than Battfield.

CoD is better for straight up TDM style play. Battlefield is better if you want something larger scale and more strategic.

I distinctly remember Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 being criticized back in the day for it essentially being "more of the same." Tony Hawk 4 on the other hand was widely praised for being a departure from what came before.

These days, it feels like Pro Skater 3 is, for many people, the best in the franchise and Tony Hawk 4 is kind of forgotten.

Personally, I think Underground 1 was the series peak.

Likewise Jedi Academy was criticized for doing away with series protagonist Kyle Katarn and eschewing the story-based structure for a nearly unrelated series of missions.

These days, while Jedi Knight is still looked upon fondly, most people will jump straight to Jedi Academy as you get a light saber from the beginning as opposed to slogging through half a game of meh FPS mechanics. Likewise, the mission-based structure seems to be just what people want from the series as it fits the theme of "Jedi Simulator" better than anything that has come before or after.

FFVII Rebirth had one of the worst open worlds I've seen. Between that and FFXV, SquareEnix hasn't yet shown they understand open world game design.

Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look premieres on Netflix on August 27, at 12pm PT / 3pm ET / 8pm BST.

That is the most disgusting thing I have ever read.

It’s been hilarious watching The Sims community melt over this. For those of you not aware, The Sims has become woke as frick in almost every possible way the last decade or so. To the point the game is broken because all they focus is adding things to be “inclusive” and they ignore fixing the game

---

I don't know. I thought people were down on the Sims because it has like 10,000 dollars worth of DLC available for purchase. That'll only get worse now

The pacing got all fricked up by the stuff pulled behind the scenes by the Discovery exec and the budget last season.

And if they’re not getting an appropriate budget for the last season, I don’t see how they pull off all they need to pull off to being the story to completion.

Struggling company gets bought out. Acquiring company installs leadership of struggling company to lead the new combined entity.

Acquiring company begins making bad decisions and starts struggling. Always wild how that happens

The is the worst episode of the season by far and maybe one of the worst in the entire series

The gunplay feels more like Bungie Halo than previous titles, but I may be misremembering.

This is probably the least visually impressive UE5 title I've ever seen though. I don't think it looks massively better than Anniversary Edition.

I wonder if/when we will ever get a remake/remaster for 3. It's weird that 1 and 2 are updated to modern visual standards but 3 is stuck in early xbox 360 era visuals.
