Your PC Gaming Soulmate is a Buggy Mess (Just Like Your Love Life)

BREAKING NEWS 💀 Rogue The Skeptic The Annual Festival of Corporate Affection Welcome to February, the month where the air is thick with the scent of overpriced roses, desperation, and the lingering odor of unwashed gaming chairs. It’s Valentine’s Day, or as I like to call it: The Season of the Seasonal Event Skin. While the rest of the world is busy getting scammed by Big Florist, the gaming industry is hard at work trying to convince you that your 'soulmate' is a collection of pixels and a voice actor who probably didn't get paid enough. A new 'Which PC Gaming Icon is Your Soulmate?' quiz is making the rounds, promising to pair you with your digital destiny. It’s the ultimate distraction from the fact that your Steam library is a graveyard of unplayed indie titles and that you haven't seen direct sunlight since the last major patch of your favori...

Square Smash: Because Breaking Bricks is the 'Innovation' We Deserve in 2024

BREAKING NEWS 💀 Rogue The Skeptic The 'Revolution' Will Be Rectangular Stop the presses. Put down your 100-hour open-world RPGs and pause your high-octane hero shooters. The gaming industry has finally peaked. Square Smash has officially smashed its way onto Xbox, and the world—or at least a very small, very bored corner of it—will never be the same. I hope you can sense the thick, gooey layer of sarcasm I’m laying down here, because if you can’t, you’re exactly the kind of person who pre-orders 'Digital Deluxe' editions of calculator apps. According to the folks over at TheXboxHub, we’ve got a new contender for your hard drive space. It’s called Square Smash, and the marketing pitch is "Break Bricks, Break Rules." Wow. Groundbreaking. I haven't heard a tagline that edgy since my middle school diary. It’s a game about hitting squares with ...

Fallout Season 2: The Ratings Are Radioactive, And Not In The Fun Way

BREAKING NEWS 💀 Rogue The Skeptic Welcome to the Wasteland of Diminishing Returns Remember April? Remember when every person with a Prime subscription suddenly pretended they’d been fans of Interplay since 1997, despite not knowing a Vault Boy from a Pip-Boy? Season 1 of Fallout was the golden child, the explosive debut that actually made us forget—briefly—that Todd Howard has sold us Skyrim fourteen times. But now, the dust is settling on Season 2, and the numbers are looking a bit like a Pip-Boy with a cracked screen: blurry, glitchy, and pointing toward a cliff. Read Also: Fallout Season 2 Episode 5: Because One Apocalypse Wasn't Profitable Enough The headlines are screaming that ratings are down. Amazon is doing its best PR dance, claiming it's all part of the 'plan.' You know the plan: the one where they stop giving you the whole cake at once a...

Sony Wants to Play Your Games For You (Because You’re Clearly Too Incompetent)

BREAKING NEWS 💀 Rogue The Skeptic The Era of Not Playing Games is Finally Here Congratulations, everyone. We’ve finally reached the peak of human evolution. We’ve gone from grinding for weeks to beat a boss in Ninja Gaiden to having a multi-billion dollar corporation patent a way for us to not play the games we just bought . Sony has filed a patent for an AI 'ghost' that will step in and take over the controller when you get stuck. You know, because actually learning a mechanic or—heaven forbid—reading a guide is just too much work for the modern gamer who has the attention span of a caffeinated goldfish.

Open Forum #346: The Digital Salt Mine Where Hope Goes to Die

BREAKING NEWS 💀 Rogue The Skeptic The Digital Abyss Stares Back (And It Wants Your Credit Card) Welcome back to the weekly ritual of collective suffering we call the Open Forum. We’re at number 346. That’s three hundred and forty-six times we’ve gathered around the digital campfire to pretend that the gaming industry isn't currently a dumpster fire fueled by venture capital and the tears of underpaid developers. The snippet says it’s a place to discuss 'almost anything and everything.' How quaint. In reality, it’s a place where we try to convince ourselves that the next $70 'AAAA' experience won't be a buggy, microtransaction-riddled mess that requires a Day One patch larger than the actual game. If you’ve been living under a rock—or perhaps just playing a game that actually works—the Open Forum is that special corner of the internet where the ...

Pizza Cat: The Detroit Airport DLC Nobody Asked For

BREAKING NEWS 💀 Rogue The Skeptic The Liminal Space of Culinary Despair Picture this: It’s 3:00 AM in the Detroit Metropolitan Airport. You’re stranded, your legs feel like overcooked noodles, and the only thing open is your own sense of regret. Suddenly, glowing in the distance like a legendary loot drop in a sea of common trash, stands Pizza Cat . It’s an automated vending machine promising hot pizza in minutes. Because apparently, we’ve given up on human contact so thoroughly that we now trust a robotic feline to handle our 2:00 AM carb loading. The Specs: A Microwave in a Fancy Suit Kotaku’s latest 'investigative journalism' takes us to the front lines of this automated nightmare. The machine functions exactly how you’d expect: you press a button, wait a few minutes while some internal gears grind away (hopefully not on a stray bolt), and out pops a circul...
