    Are games in series coming out too slow?

    I think the number of complex systems in a game is more a limitation on the player side now and has likely been that way for a good 25+ years. Developers can add all sorts of systems to a game, but the players (by and large) don't want to have to learn all of it. But what I'm really wondering...

    The game is so short, it's hard not to duplicate!

    Non-PCG News Discussion for March 2026

    It might not have been on PC Gamer yet. Right now, it's just rumors, so they might be waiting for a more official announcement. Sales figures aren't bad, but management might see them as competing with themselves by releasing on PC. If they release on PC a year+ after PS, they'll have to do...

    Announcement Show us your best gaming clips!

    No, I mean PC Gamer would do it. We put the video and hand over rights. They have somebody that knows what they're doing pan & scan over it in a way that gets most of the action without jumping so fast we can't follow what's happening. Then it gets posted. It would sure be way easier to just...

    Are games in series coming out too slow?

    (Idea mentioned by Gameranx in this video) The first game in the new FF7 Remake came out in 2020. The second game in 2024. The third hasn't been announced yet, but say it shows up in 2028. Eight years for a trilogy. If you played the first one at age 16, you'll be out of college (or working...

    Announcement Show us your best gaming clips!

    Maybe. I guess we'll just have to see what the winner videos look like. Are they full screen? Are they vertical slices? Are they vertical slices where somebody who understands such things pans the camera around some to make it look better?

    I saw that, thought about how it took me 240 hours to get through Assassin's Creed: Odessey, and now my legs hurt.

    Yeah, we've got red flag warnings down here - meaning no burning anything. It's about to drop about 30 degrees F and start raining off and on for about a week, though, which will help a lot. Maybe more than enough. If you folks want some, feel free to shift the center of the Earth over a bit...

    What?? But it isn't March ye... it IS March! Sheesh, time flies. That means Daylight Savings is kicking in next weekend. I do like having the 'bread crumb' links at the very bottom of the page in this format!

    Notable Sales, Games (Ongoing)

    Ooo, good prices on the South Park RPGs, Star Wars: Outlaws, the Watch Dogs games, Assassin's Creed games, Dark Messiah of Might & Magic... They've never been top tier for me, but they have been second tier for a mighty long time!

    I the USA? 9 people. Actually, these are most likely all gamers, so maybe just 8. <grinning, ducking, running - but not very far before he has to stop for a breather>

    Starfield Playthrough Discussion

    Lower gravity only changes how hard the vehicle is pulled down. It still has the same inertia as always. Once you get that thing moving, it's going to be like driving on a slick road because tire friction will be way down. I can't remember what book it was, but disreputable folks were...

    General Game Discussion for February 2026

    You know how action adventure games will throw in a sequence where you have to go through a bunch of jumps, acrobatics, quick shots, QTEs, and who-knows-what else while something horrible is happening all around you - like the building you're in is getting sucked up into a tornado? (Here's a...
