I learned that if I want to play the first Fatal Frame games, I'll need an XBOX 360 or a PS3. I wouldn't buy a 360, but a PS3 is more reasonable. There's a lot you can play on a PS3.

I really wanted to like "Exp. 33", but it's as though they took turn-based and ruined it.

US Game Console Sales Crater in Worst November in Two Decades

US spending on video game consoles fell 27% last month, marking the worst November in two decades as tariffs and rising component costs pushed prices to record highs.

American consumers spent $695 million on hardware like Nintendo Co.’s Switch 2 and Sony Group Corp.’s PlayStation 5 in the period, the lowest in the pivotal month for holiday shopping since 2005, according to a report from market tracker Circana on Wednesday.

Yes, I just didn't remember when I wrote that. Though I don't know how well the emulators would run, as the games on PS3 are played using backward compatibility.

Lies.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33’s battle system was designed around the premise of “no frustrating deaths” and “a game you can clear without taking a single hit,” director says

There's no official release date for the prequel to Wylde Flowers, but it hardly matters when it seems that it's only being released for PC.

This caught my attention because I assumed it was a joke. It's an upcoming game in which you will play a high school student. That is it. You have to go to school every day, sit in class, take exams, and get into a good college. But it's not all trivial; you also have to get a job like mowing lawns or flipping burgers.

I guess with all the AI taking jobs and schools, and prices going up, what used to be boring and trivial life is now an exciting video game.

After Xbox CEO Asha Sharma admitted last week that “Game Pass has become too expensive for players,” Microsoft is dropping the price of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass. Starting today, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate drops from $29.99 to $22.99 a month, and PC Game Pass moves to $13.99, down from $16.49 a month.

The price drops are being fueled in part by future Call of Duty titles no longer joining Game Pass Ultimate or PC Game Pass at launch. “New Call of Duty games will be added to Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass during the following holiday season (about a year later), while existing Call of Duty titles already in the library will continue to be available,” says Microsoft.

Not going to concern myself with Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced. I have my doubts that it will be something of interest to me.
