Looks like Sony is a new company to completely avoid. Good to know.

Looks like the only viable option when gaming these days is computer. I wonder how long that will last.

Would games like The Witcher 3 and Mass Effect been heavily censored by Sony under their new policy? I heavily doubt it.

There will be no pressure against Sony, unless a highly compatible PS4 emulator is developed. As PS4 itself is a multicore x86 AMD APU-based system, it is not rocket science to emulate, however due to its poweful hardware - it will take a while for PC hardware to have 8x its computing power for a reliable and accurate emulation.

We are just in the early days of perfecting a Nintendo Switch emulator. We are still very far from emulating a PS4 console in a custom build PC.

"The Key to Home Banned From Steam, Again"

Valve at it again. There really is no place safe for English translated games anymore.

Though I have to ask, why haven't they released it on another platform/a website of their own?

And the devs even managed to get a T rating from the ESRB, yet somehow it is an adult game? Valve are absolute idiots. Leader of The Enemy ||

Honestly, yeah. There is no logical reason that something drawn 100 or 200 years ago is so much better, when anyone looking at it logically can see that the same ffort and emotions went into both pieces.

So what if it's a different style? What matters in art, in creating something, is only the effort and the emotion one puts into it. Nothing more, nothing less. That is where the value of a piece comes from.

Honestly, when I see people degrading a game or something because it uses a specific art style, I just think to myself, "Have they never once put effort into anything, or are they truly so petty that they must make others feel like trash to make themselves feel better?" Leader of The Enemy ||

Dead or Alive will be censored on PS4, but not Switch.

I honestly couldn't have predicted that Sony would become such assholes, in such a short portion of time. California must be a hell hole, if moving their headquarters there has turned them so quickly.

California's actually failry lax on this stuff compared to states like Texas or North Carolina. Leader of The Enemy ||

Thankfully they didn't move to either of those then. Sony moving was a mistake, but in the end money always wins.

In other news:
Capcom actually did something good:

It doesn't make up for all of their other anti-consumer practices and choices, along with all of their other negative things such as censorship.
