This guy loves all the bits and pieces associated with gaming. He actually bought the Nintendo Power Glove and the Virtual Boy. He has Rumble Paks on his Rumble Paks. Maybe he just really likes Nintendo… No wait, there’s a stack of every color of PlayStation memory card ever made. He always shows up with his own controller in pristine condition, and you laughed at him when he brought over the Master Chief helmet that came with the Legendary edition of Halo 3, because it’s tiny and you can’t actually wear it. Then he used it to build a scale model that actually fit, and you were kind of jealous.
Skewed and Reviewed have written an Opinion Piece covering issues in the gaming industry, how current issues were issues years ago, and what can be done to help restore consumer trust.
Nothing. It's up to the gamers to stop consuming content from companies that they don't agree with.
How do you know if you agree with it or not unless you play it? Which without conventions forces gamers to rely on trailers. Perhaps Demos should be made more frequently. But companies need to do better as well.
But is that not what they have now? Tons of gameplay or are you talking about watching actual gamers play it versus the trailers and streams? The big issue is that some companies pay streamers and influencers and they create content but for me; that is hardly a fair, unbiased, and factual look at a game.
They usually are attached to the money sadly. It would be nice to have gamers in charge but you have so much money invested that business people are needed. Hence the issue; you need people who know business but are also gamers who know have an eye to the community. It sounds simple in theory that if you give gamers quality games that they want to play; money will be made. But that is not always so.

Nice artwork.
I collect video games and video game accessories.
I actually recently just purchased the Spyro the Dragon games for PS1 (I had them before, but lost them).
ATM I have a working SNES, NES, Genesis, N64, PS1 (fat model), Gamecube, PS2, Xbox original, and a PS3.
I also have a gameboy pocket, Gameboy Color, Sega Gamegear.
My PS2 VG collection alone is like 80 games....
Is this a bad thing?
i'm guilty of 1 and 4 to an extent. i like collecting just to have things, the condition is irrelevant.
i think #4 comes naturally to anybody who has been in the hobby as long as i have. you get better at analyzing games and comparing them to similar mechanics that were used in the past. i respect where the hobby is now to an extent but i do genuinely think alot of older games are better. they might not have all the bells and whistles but there was a purity of gameplay that i greatly enjoy.
btw i bookmarked and subscribed to the site, theres alot of funny stuff. thanks to whoever submitted this.
That's a funny article that I think we can all relate to. I have a buddy who is definitely a freak of nature. He beat Resident Evil on the invisible enemy mode for gamecube and he also beat ninja gaiden 1&2 on it's hardest difficulty.
2, 3 and 6 I guess... to a certain extent. I suspect most gamers are one or more of these types of players.
