      Editing … You bought a Vive? Nice! I love the idea of VR but I'm not investing in it yet. I hope they release enough games to make it worth that incredible price tag for you.

      Editing … Mirror's Edge got delayed again, a bunch of PS4K/NEO/.5 rumours came out and some prick from Polygon refused to review Star Fox: Zero because they couldn't use the controls (even though they wrote 600-odd words of critique, before adamantly exclaiming that it was not a review).

    Let's try to describe the current state of the modern video game industry in one sentence.

    I'll start.

    "Where can I pre-order the season pass?"

    The Writer Will Do Something
    http://mrwasteland.itch.io/twwds

    You are the lead writer for the third game in the wildly popular ShatterGate franchise. Expectations are through the roof, but the game’s development hasn’t gone as smoothly as planned.

    One morning, just a couple of months before E3 and six months before ship, an emergency meeting is called ...

      Editing … Tiger Woods 07 lets you choose from a number of skin colors. But there is way too much customization. The game should have just stick to a handful of settings with a list of presets in each. Male/female, skin color, eye color, and build. That's it. Maybe you can also choose from a few different faces, but that's it. Character creators are a ridiculous feature. You bought a game but instead of playing it, you spend half hour at least making a character. What for? To make it look like you? Then your character should carry over from game to game, doncha think? Maybe this should have been a system feature of the PS4/Xbone.

      Editing … there are too many choices in games. Right now I'm playing God of War Chains of Olympus, and over and over again you have a choice of two paths: one is the correct way, but the other is a dead end with items or orbs. Without being told which is which. So constantly you have to backtrack. Also, some chests give you either magic or health. (your choice) But sometimes my magic and health are each half full and i dont know which to replenish. It has nothing to do with the game so the game should just make these decisions for you and get it over with. Just now I chose magic, but I walk 2 rooms ahead and there is a magic chest and a health chest next to a save point. So I made a choice for nothing! It was all going to get replenished anyway!
