Every week, I get happier and happier that I sold my Series X last year. Watching them completely torch their brand month after month has become so exhausting. My heart goes out to the people who lost their jobs today and the thousands of others who did previously under Xbox's leadership.

Another thought on this - storage space (ie - SSDs) have increased so sharply in price that storing digital games is becoming increasingly difficult and expensive. Discs are DIRT CHEAP to produce - so even if you have to install them, you have a physical, cheap solution right there.

I guess that's that then, huh? The end of buying games for PlayStation for me - at least, for the most part. I guess I'll still play some games from time to time but talk about destroying interest in a platform. Only Nintendo remains but for how long? blog.playstation.com/2026/07/01/p...

Star Fox is seriously an incredible remake. I definitely had my doubts about the choice to remake this game, but I'm on board with this vision. I'd still rather have something entirely new though, so let's hope this leads to a new game in a few years!

I think star fox is getting such high praise from everyone because people forgot games don’t have to feel mildly like homework

Quake released June 22, 1996 in North America Mario 64 released June 23, 1996 in Japan When it comes to the 3rd dimension and the medium of video games, almost everything made since stands on the shoulders of these two titans, and they were released (given the time difference) mere hours apart

The cartridge for Super Mario 64 and the CD case for Quake, the retail shareware version.

Yeah...this is gonna further push console manufacturers to keep increasing prices. I know the hardware space is tough right now, but if the industry wants to keep doing this, then count me out. I've already said that the Switch 2 is likely my last console purchase and this is just solidifying that.

Valve says the $1,050 Steam Machine is definitely not a video game console. "The traditional console model is to sell hardware at a loss and make up the ... https://kotaku.com/valve-wants-you-to-know-the-steam-machine-isnt-a-video-game-console-we-think-of-it-as-an-extension-of-pc-gaming-2000709032

I find it hilarious that Mario fans are losing their minds yet again because they have to wait a few minutes to get a new game. Don't worry guys, Nintendo ain't forgot about the plumber man.

Switch Sports Resort, Ocarina of Time Remake, Final Fantasy HD-2D game, ALL KINGDOM HEARTS GAMES, tons of third party ports... Yeah, that direct slapped. Totally content with my purchase.

Sometimes I feel like the only person on the internet that just doesn't give a crap if a game is on the cart or a Game Key Card. I cared at one point but now? Whatever. Just let me play the game. Lol
