Random Video Game Crap

Content that MOST people accessed through the hot coffee mod.
Sure, but the reason it caused a rating change was because the "nudity" wasn't modded in. It was on the disc, in the basic download, whatever - it came packaged with the game itself. No nudie mod for Skyrim (I dunno, do they exist? *cough*cough*) has changed its rating.

The Hot Coffee debacle wasn't mod-related. Sure, most people used the "mod" to access it, but since that was something you could literally do yourself on a console with just some commands...

Nude models have existed in other games that were never meant to be seen, and were accessed through third party programs or console commands, and that never changed their rating. Like that game with Ellen Page that no one remembers.

Also, accessing the 'hot coffee' content still required that you have a modded console in order to access those console commands. A regular player using a normal console without any third party alterations would never be able to access it. And it was the console version of the game that the 'controversy' was about.
 


Here we have Charles Dance spewing the same crap that EVERY "behind the scenes" interview with a celebrity voice actor spews and yet I am riveted. That voice.

Holy shit, this one. This just about drove me nuts in Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning. Chest is cursed and locked with the highest level of both? Inside is a basic healing potion and a low level crafting component. Right next to it is an unlocked chest with powerful weapons and potions made with rare ingredients.

Could say this of almost any RPG, really. Spend extra time going down some long, windy hallway with a shitload of random battles and swerving paths? Oh sure, here's your chest with a one-use item that you'll either never use or pawn for 200g. Chest right next to the save room? Excalibur.
 
Goddamn, Steve Blum, take a day off.

It's become a running joke with my brother to see how far into a game we can get before he shows up doing a voice.
 
Steve Blum, Nolan North, and Troy Baker sort of take turns alternating as my favorite male voice actor. I don't mind when any of them show up. Hell, sometimes I don't even recognize their voices.

This is the sort of creative endeavor that would often cause my grandfather to remark "you all don't have enough to do."

 
At this point, they don't even deserve the great IPs they own, like Metal Gear and Silent Hill. It'll never happen, but someone should buy the rights to them.
 
If people would just stop giving these companies money by buying their products, they would either A) figure it out and treat customer better, or B) fall apart and go away. But instead, we get people bitching about their business practices but still buying their products.[DOUBLEPOST=1431382744,1431382646][/DOUBLEPOST]It's like telling a dog "no" every time it shits on the carpet, then giving that same dog a treat immediately after.

People aren't really buying Konami products because they don't really make any.
 
Hey, apparently there is no dice poker in Witcher 3, which is great, because dicking around in Witcher 1 and 2 and watching AI opponents magically go from nothing to 4 of a kinds near constantly like the cheating fucking asshole faces they are, I can say, with zero compunctions about it, fuck dice poker. Fuck it right up it's stupid, bullshit, cheating ass.

I like dice poker. I just hated their ever-cheating ass AI in it.

When I'd play old fucking games on the SNES and so forth, I'd express play card games. Perform a save state and see what comes out. Throw away 1 card, 2 cards, 3,4, all cards.... then just watch the AI get the same cards regardless of what I throw.

Fucking cheating scumbags.

New Horizons was cool though, no cheating there.
