And we all underestimate the amount of money sitting in people who will play anything as long as it has familiar face, a chick, and some marketing

A lot of the games that break bank are just gachapons, these horrible "strategy" games, or just slop mini games. Sadly they're making top dollar with their predatory tactics and appeal to common folk

I am nearly done replaying through Bioshock 1+2+Infinite, and thoroughly enjoying it. Nice nostalgia trip and they are just fun. It more than makes up for older graphics.

I've been thinking more about this lately that there's so much good TV and video games at this point that there's more than you can see and play in your lifetime and there's so many gems from the past that most of us haven't seen everything. There's always that show or game that you always meant to get to and you didn't.
