''I have been saying this for some time, but customers are not interested in grand games with higher-quality graphics and sound and epic stories. Only people who do not know the videogame business would advocate the release of next-generation machines when people are not interested in cutting-edge technologies.'' - Hiroshi Yamauchi

Words the entire industry should live by, though Nintendo still holds true to this mantra, even after he stepped down.

I like it when people use the word "gay" in any context other than a homosexual one - it only proves that they have the maturity of a five year old, as if their obsession with shooters didn't already do a good job of pointing that out. It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms.

But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit.

game - gun = gay
game + gun = -gay
game + gun + Arem = ???

Yes, they are; this is the same bullshit all third party devs are throwing around, considering I've signed like three or four petitions this past month or so because games aren't getting released, or are getting gutted on the Wii U. Devs complain that there's no demand on the Wii U, so they won't release games, but they have nothing to go buy since no games are released to gauge said demand. I'm just tired of being treated like a second class citizen because I chose Nintendo over Sony and Microsoft; my console isn't any less capable than the other two, these people have no longer have the excuses they did with the Wii, which was half the reason their fanbases are so damaged, from being constantly burned.

That Gamestop employee basically summed up what's wrong with blaming video games for a given kid's behavior today. It's the lazy-ass parents who can't be bothered to actually either play or research the game their kid wants to buy that are the cause of the problem. It's just that none of them want to take the blame.

In SteamOS, we have achieved significant performance increases in graphics processing, and we’re now targeting audio performance and reductions in input latency at the operating system level. Game developers are already taking advantage of these gains as they target SteamOS for their new releases.
Hoo boy, now I have to check this out when it's ready. It's so incredibly sad that I haven't actually seen an OS favour performance since... fucking Windows 95? XP, arguably?

So there's an interactive movie prequel for a zombie game called Hellraid on YouTube.



Here's the first video, but you may have to watch it on YouTube itself, since it relies on annotations to work properly. And I don't think our embeds work with annotations.

Following off the heels of SteamOS, we have details of the "Steambox" now.

The tl;dr is that Valve just gave Ouya a massive, world-breaking punch in the dick.
