Just 3 years ago Rebirth used "it's got 2 discs" as a marketing/hype reveal. Obv some of this is that Revelation's launching on 4 platforms with different disc/cart capacity, but it's also another sign of how quickly the physical margin-squeezing's accelerated towards our digital hellscape future

Soon, R&C1 will have 4 Platinum trophies: PS3, Vita, PS4, PS5, tied with Sly 1-3 for the 2nd most Plats for any one game. Jak 1 holds the crown with 5 (PS3, Vita, PS4, PS4 again, PS5), but R&C will again have more total trophies than a series that's been dead since 2009...until the Jak 2-3 ports.

NEW VID🎉Disney's Ratchet & Clank Clones youtu.be/VRrk15cc9Hg There are LOADS of games that get compared to R&C (even by professional outlets) despite being nothing alike. I've made the official* criteria for what counts as an R&C clone, & put it to the test with several licensed Disney games. Help

In 2016 after Go exploded, entrepreneur types framed Niantic's founder/chairman as a young student who broke into the tech/gaming space & made the first MMO. 1. MMOs had existed for years. 2. He was already 30 & had worked for 4yrs for the US govt on vague "foreign policy type of stuff" before this

In light of Pokemon Go user data being used by military drones: Don't be fooled, this won't "surprise" The Pokemon Company. It's ALWAYS been okay with Niantic's shady history. The company that would become Niantic created Google Earth with funding from the CIA www.networkworld.com/article/9536...

In light of Rayman, I'm pre-posting my OoT remake reactions: Idk man it's weird that they're bothering, look at all this SOUL. How is the new one meant to capture the magic? Just don't get it, it's a shame this is the version kids'll grow up with wait wdym the og is available on modern stores
