Wait. I don't get it. I reported on something that I recently noticed. I did mention in my article that I wouldn't have noticed if I hadn't gone to play The Division 2. That said, if this was nearly a week ago, I wouldn't know, as NO ONE REPORTED ON IT! Not IGN. Not Gamespot. Not Kotaku. No one.

You got people here complaining that there are any real gaming journalists and game journalism sucks, but when someone is acting, doing something to make something known to the public about what a company is doing. What do you do? You poke fun at it. What is it that people want? Do you want to complain for the sake of it? Or do you actually want people to do something to make those who aren't in the know aware of the shady stuff that's happening and to sound the alarm?

It's the "oh well" setting in on digital users. They don't care they don't own their stuff for some odd reason. 🤷🏽.

Good for you! People sometimes just feel the need to show how little they actually have to say. Very respectful dressing down, btw, which is another thing we need more of.

I appreciate your article,
- "If this isn’t considered both a “WTF” moment and setting a dangerous precedent, I don’t know what else it would be"
- "it could also signal other publishers that removing games from our accounts would be okay"
- "Maybe those firmly against this digital future have a point after all"
- "This. Is. Fucked. Up."

As someone against an only-digital/streaming future for entertainment content (movies/TV shows/games/books), it feels like talking into a void about the points above on this website, or on Twitter, or with my friends, etc. People don't get it. I'm strongly contemplating whether this will be my last generation of PlayStation & Xbox consoles (I'm confident enough that Nintendo's next system will still support physical media and that their 1st-party games won't have online-required installation or usage restrictions).

He is one of the long running trolls of this site, he never says anything positive. Every single one of his posts are either incorrect or flat out stupid. Pay him no mind.

Thank you @shadowhaxor, we appreciate you.

Yet people will sit here and still say that digital is better 🙃

Welcome to the era where you no longer own your games.

I'm so done with Ubisoft, removing games one paid for is a new low...
Bye Ubisoft,
You've done f#c*ed it up !

Chocoburger31d ago

This was me 9 years ago, when I realized all they wanted to make were filler boring games that are packed with micro-trash-actions.

Snooze! Moving on from Ubi-junk!

I see they're trying their best to surpass Activision Blizzard for being the most hated gaming company. Keep at it, Ubisoft, I believe!

Bring it Back | Legacy of Kain

For GotGame's Bring it Back retrospective feature this week, the spotlight shines on the Legacy of Kain franchise.

I’d love a current take on either Legacy or Kain Soul Reaver. Personally I have more memories spending time getting through all the pain in the ass puzzles of Soul Reaver, but really enjoyed the game and art style

Scissorman821092d ago

Pushing and pulling and flipping those blocks...:P

MWH1092d ago

The games did not break too many grounds with the gameplay and less so with the later installments, but the story was so good it qualifies as a high quality novel. To me it make up for everything else.

jukins1092d ago

Id want a remake or just a new game in the series. Went back and played this a few years ago , to me at least it didnt really age well

BlackIceJoe1092d ago

I've been wanting this for years, but you need to make sure Amy Hennig is part of the series, because she was a huge part of the series in the past.

TheHan1092d ago

Legacy of Kain is badass. Ahead of its time, then they went in a completely off beat direction, go back to what made the first one so great. Blood Omen Kains legacy is the best one, went down hill after reaver.
