My understanding is that people really wanted a new Marvel vs Capcom and Tokon isn’t. It’s a Marvel tag fighter but it plays quite differently.

nvidia press in 2000: "this card - no, it's not pronounced 'gay force' - makes your frags sharper than ever. pcgamer saw star trek voyager: elite force, and anisotropic filtering made us weep tears of joy."

2025: "economists predict a 'Death Zone' if nvidia doesn't sell 500 billion chips next year"

Carl knows what he fucking did

GOT ‘EM

Oh OK thanks for the update. Even the shooter sickos I know didn’t even know it was releasing on console before launch and Mat Piscatella said engagement was far lower on console when I asked. It probably picked up now that it’s in a prime spot on the console stores

I think Marathon’s biggest opportunity lies in capturing a console market for a more traditional extraction game. Arc is very PvE focused and for whatever reason has had very little traction on console while blowing up on PC

The Eurogamer review focuses on how the use of genAI is at odds with the game’s own theming which is a great way to frame it.

This is my stance on it as well. The games are cool, the team is talented, and if this is was the limit of how genAI is used in the industry I wouldn’t be happy with it but it’s far more tolerable than other plans. It’s just the lack of pushback and the potential to expand it that worries me

Hopefully yours is decent. All the ones at the places I’ve lived have been rooms too small for the equipment with awkward hours

This looks so much better than the first one
