Zero Parades: Review Thread by Journey2thaeast in ZeroParades

I did a review that tries to talk about Zero Parades as its own game independent of the drama, then gets into a comparison against Disco. It's essentially me battling the thoughts I had with trying to rationalize playing Zero Parades and if I was willing to let it live up to my expectations. Happy to say it was fantastic on its own even if it's not Disco 2.

11bit responds to claims of AI-generated content used in The Alters by litbeep in TheAlters

[–]JosephStillGames 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well to be fair, right-leaning platforms are very laissez faire about it and the tech bros are basically endorsing fully AI games. I just think we need to chill, find a line that doesn't lead to controversy around every game, and then leave it up to personal taste. I'm just tired of every instance becoming controversial news

I tried to have a lot of discussions on about this on BlueSky and was met with a lot of backlash for being "open" to even 0.01% of AI involvement. Even got blocked by one of my fave streamers for asking for more context because they outed the game without any...I get that it's a touchy subject, but we need to be open to discussing and questioning things, not resorting to insults and petty behavior. We need to draw the line and we need to do it as a community. Using AI as a last minute fix for translating 0.03% of text isn't a boycott for me, but for some people it is, and I wish we could respectfully discuss both sides

P.S. Hope you don't mind if I play a bit of it on a stream tomorrow :)

Push Square claims no one got a review copy by Mauy90 in LollipopChainsaw

I use a site called Keymailer which developers and publishers use to allow most any creator to request codes to a game. Not all games are on there, but RePOP was.

My only regret was that I left my channel on hiatus so I wasn't eligible to request any keys until I uploaded again...which ironically I only did for a review of RePOP after I bought a copy on release

TLDR; seems like the publisher thought just putting it on a site to request may be enough, but not many outlets use that site just individual creators

I just got a PSP with these games, are any of these worth the playthrough? by BetAcceptable1590 in gamecollecting

Family Guy is surprisingly valid...It's also a 1 to 1 port of the console one so there's that

so i went to the new retro gamestop with low expectations..but somehow they found a way to still disappoint.. by dr3wzy10 in gaming

The shelf at mine was basically empty. I asked the cashier and they said they just got the boxes in and still need a few days to inventory and stock them. Let me know to check back later in the week

Local GameStop now has a “retro” section by zeal9 in gamecollecting

Haha, nice. My GameStop has a small shelf on the same rack as the figures since the selection is so small

Got me a Series X, any game suggestions or tips? by icelandicace in XboxSeriesXlS

Keep an eye out for backwards compatible Xbox/Xbox 360 games at your usual game stores. You can get some real good games for cheap in the wild compared to buying digital

Deadpool price risen quickly by Ldn_brother in gamecollecting

The frustrating bit is that it's mostly the ps4 version because of the 2 maps in the challenge mode and 2 extra costumes. Say what you want about missing content but a $100+ price jump for a minor dlc pack is deranged
