Excerpt from the article: "I was going to name this episode “The Times, They Are a’changin” but that sounds too negative. Sure, there are some changes coming, but they’re all good things, and one really crazy thing. We can’t say much, but here’s a hint: cake…on…face…
The RUNDOWN (It’s a shorter episode, but no less chocked full of *CENSORED* and *CENSORED* jokes):
- Game of the Week: Professor Layton, Team Fortress 2, Assassin’s Creed II & Brotherhood, Ben There Dan That
- Boris posits new/used game purchase windows
- Rob argues “$10 Pass” is a bad solution and Gamestop is to blame
- Very Important GameCrashers Announcements (You’ll want to hear this part)
- Closing Arguments & Outro"
Valve has finally introduced the much-needed 64-bit support in an unexpected Team Fortress 2 update after 17 years since its release.
64 bit support is not the same as a next gen upgrade. 64 bit has been used for like 12-15 years now?
"It would be great if people had to buy more of the thing," says guy who makes money selling the thing.
If they did then collectors wouldn’t be getting f***** over with discless collectors editions
No shock, GameStop is alive because of trading. If they don't have used games on their shelves they are absolutely donezo.
Well of course the GS boss thinks this... that's their bread and butter business. That and funco pops and clothing, though those two were added as a means to supplement the decline in people buying used games or even new games. GS just sucks overall when it comes to gaming. I buy my physical stuff on Amazon or Best Buy.
As for "requiring" disc drives... nah. Not anymore, but i like having them as an option. They had a means back when games actually ran off the discs and were more/less complete. Now they are incomplete and the disc is really an installer with a license to play. If you want to change games you have to take out the disc and put in another. Its more convenient to just use digital. I have been into digital for years now and when the PSPortal comes along i wont even have to go into my game room. I will just play my PS5 from my couch downstairs. I have a bunch of digital installed games to my 5... I'm all set.
GF365: "Oftentimes, video games have characters who are antagonistic and really not very pleasant. Here are some of the friendliest characters in games where you might not otherwise expect to find them."
