Return to The BaDlands #1 - The Value of Games In The Future


Posted on 02/02/2014 at 03:11 AM | Filed Under Blogs

I've seen three Gamestops in my area close already and there's rumors BestBuy is close to closing up as well. Additionally, a friend of mine mentioned he heard Microsoft will offer a $499 Xbox One with NO DISC DRIVE. Now this might just be rumor, but they did try to get gamers to switch to online only purchases initially with the X1, so it's not too far fetched an idea. Pretty soon there'll be no place to buy a physical disc and everything will be downloads. I'm not sure how I feel about that, but I did stop buying a lot of music once all the record stores disappeared. Without something in my hand, I just didn't care as much.

Microsoft Now Owns Gears Too?

On a good note. Remember EA buying Pandemic Studios, makers of one of my favorite series Destroy All Humans! (also Mercenaries and Star Wars Battlefront) and then shutting them down a year later? I was so pissed that DAH was going to end. But now there are over a dozen former Pandemic developers working at 343 Industries who worked on Halo 4 and Halo Anniversary (I fault Halo 4 for it's story but it is a beautiful and smart playing game).

MS knows who to hire for their projects, but why do they and other companies always buy development companies and then close them? To eliminate competition?

BaD #1: Games I want to see on the 3DS VC

Phantasy Star IV would be great, but I'd like an HD remake like what they did with Etrian Odyssey and Etrian Odyessy Untold. Make it 3D and add some modern features. I have the original game on like three different systems already.

Gosh whatever you do don't touch that one. It links right to a red phone in a silo somewhere and a guy there has been told that, when the red phone lights up, launch the missiles.

One thing Xbox did right was no long waits to play your game unless you want to install it to the hard drive. Sometimes a game has a patch to update it with anything new to the dashboard but it's super quick. What do gamers want? They want to jump in and play right away. That's a no brainer for any console maker. What's up Sony?

My Grandmother gave me my first poached eggs and Kholrabi. The eggs were great, the Kholrabi (also called German Turnip) was not. German Grandmas apparently don't make cookies. Now how am I going to make cookies in Cookie Clicker with such a Grandma? You tell me.

I BaD and that's good!

I agree with all that.

Driver issues. One thing I don't miss from PC gaming.

Maybe you mean Ms. Pac-Man because the first one on 2600 was not great as I remember it. 

My favorite hobby when I was under ten was building plastic models like this one:
