800 Euro! Und dann ist noch nicht mal ein Disc-Laufwerk dabei. Um die Playstation 5 Pro gibt es vor allem wegen ihres Preises viel Diskussion. Dabei ist Gaming im Allgemeinen nicht unbedingt das günstigste Hobby. Neue Spiele, neue Hardware, In-Game-Käufe – es gibt diverse kritische Attacken auf den Geldbeutel. Wie viel gebt ihr für’s Gaming aus? Müsst ihr immer gleich zum Release die neuesten Games zocken oder reicht euch der Griff in die Software-Pyramide? Könnt ihr dem Druck von Free2Play-Titeln widerstehen? Und wie viele Battle Passes habt ihr am Laufen?

Why are video games getting so expensive now? It's not just the single time purchase, either. It's the DLC, the Battle Passes, the micro-transactions, etc etc etc. But why? Well, obviously it's about the money, and not the customer. Sad. Let's talk about it. https://linktr.ee/caffcx --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/caffeinatedcx/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/caffeinatedcx/support

Tonight on GeekNights, we discuss worker placement as a game mechanic. We intend to turn this into a series of shows and panels following on from Mastering Game Mechanics as presented at PAX East 2013. In the news, Marvel Snap's Conquest mode is fantastic, and Valve is dropping Battle Passes for Dota 2 because "nobody buys them."

Grind through the end of this wild week with us! Nintendo Direct unleashed a number of announcements that caught our eye. Dota 2, a long-running MOBA, is getting rid of Battle Passes while Diablo 4 prepares to unleash its first one. Garrett and Kyle extol the virtues of Diablo 4 for a bit, before heading into FF16 review round-up which is looking mighty impressive. Emails and more.

Welcome to Neo-Reality Collective | Pop-Culture News and Reviews Talk, Hosted by Eric Brown! In the Sixty-Third Episode, Jonathan Hickman and Valerio Schiti's mystery project is unveiled as G.O.D.S, as Hickman has described as Marvel's Sandman, which will feature the clash of The Natural Order of Things against The Powers That Be that is promised by Marvel as Hickman's most ambitious undertaking to date, dramatically reshaping Marvel's pantheon of cosmic beings and the entities behind the very fabric of reality. With Hickman revealed that when he returned to Marvel that along with House of X, G.O.D.S was his other ambitious work, drawn and colored by Valerio Schiti and Marte Gracia, respectively; Hickman's next Marvel Spanning Epic will launch in the Fall of 2023 with a preview in Free Comic Book Day. When Hickman writes, you read. "The X-Men hoped Krakoa would last forever. Time to find out if they were right." was the tease Marvel first gave for the Post-Destiny of X era for The Mutant Nation-State, Krakoa, which began in 2019's House of X/Powers of X Maxiseries by Jonathan Hickman, Pepe Larraz, R.B Silva, and Marte Gracia. It culminates in The Fall of X, featuring a full-blown war between The X-MEN of The Nation of Krakoa and The Anti-Mutant Coalition of ORCHIS as new titles and complete press releases are made at MegaCon '23. It all begins at The Hellfire Gala '23!  Daredevil: Born Again, the next chapter in Daredevil's MCU Run, is confirmed by Vincent D'Onofrio to maintain the violence that its Netflix predecessor had, and along with that, Season 2 has already been planned out by the team! John Wick Chapter IV dominates the opening weekend box office while Jeremy Renner shares an update on his recovery in the aftermath of an accident. MultiVersus, which I must remind all had microtransactions, is closing down of its Early Access phase and re-release in 2024, with no plans regarding refunding everyone who paid for microtransactions and Battle Passes. After multiple dropouts, E3 2023 is canceled. While all that is happening, Liv Tyler, who first and last appeared in the MCU's Incredible Hulk, is returning for Captain America 4: New World Order, as Disney announces the plan to lay off 7,000 employees as part of a cost-cutting measure which includes Ike Perlmutter, The Chairman of Marvel Entertainment, and John Turitzin and Rob Steffens. Xbox's acquisition of Activision-Blizzard, which has had some uphill battles, namely Sony, gets approval from Japan's Competition Regulator of The Japan Fair Trade Commission as Sony now faces eleven members of The United States Congress regarding 'Anti-Competitive Tactics' the company has been accused of regarding the big sale. We learn House of The Dragon Season 2 will consist of Eight Episodes instead of Ten, as part of the 'Big Picture' approach for the rest of the show, with Season 3 looking all but confirmed greenlit. Guardians of The Galaxy Vol. 3 is set for a length of 2.5 hours, and Rocket, confirmed by Director James Gunn, to be the 'Secret Protagonist' of the film, which kinda spoils the idea, all things considered.

After an introduction of our friend(s) at The Horrible Gaming Podcast ( title - not opinion ), we begin another listicle of games that need a updated and or redone[18:49], after which you'll need to look out for the segue between Pierce Brosnan and Jet Set Radio Future. When the honorable mentions take stage [57:15] the original list creeps past it's margins with a mix of hope and nostalgia. There is no lack of content as we then discuss our thoughts and opinions on Battle Passes [72:08] and how much value someone can find or spend with a game. Sometimes that value can become an obsession or a guilty pleasure [85:58]. Then in our last moments, you'll have to take a look at our page to see what the reveal mentioned [93:13] is!

Find out more about supporting Eurogamer here: https://www.eurogamer.net/subscribe   It's Overwatch 2 week but not quite the week Blizzard will have imagined. The servers haven't worked, there are huge queues to play in the evening, and even when people can log in, there are overly complicated character unlock systems and bolshy Battle Passes to contend with. It's not entirely clear what's new in this second game when you can play it, either.   Overwatch 2 is overwhelmingly Overwatch. It's the same conclusion Edwin Evans-Thirlwell came to in a quick impressions piece published this week while he works on his full review. And it's hard not to agree with him. Faced with the same maps and the same characters, Overwatch 2 feels like the same game so many of us will have played so many times before. The differences are there, though, and given time, they make themselves felt.    Overwatch 2 is the talking point of the week, then, and I've invited Edwin onto Weekly to talk about it. My other guest this week is news reporter Victoria Kennedy, who joins us to talk about Gotham Knights, Moonbreaker and CD Projekt Red as well. Learn more about your ad choices.

Hey all! Pushing Buttons' Season 3 is here! Kevin and Kyle are joined by Scott to discuss the gaming industry's most useful new money maker, the Battle Pass. Perfected by Fortnite and now adopted by Call of Duty, Sea of Thieves, and even Overwatch. It seems like every big multiplayer game wants in on this business model. It thrives on PC gaming but is also doing well on console and even in mobile gaming.

Hey everyone, sorry for the delay in getting this episode out. Between birthdays, COVID, mice, and HVAC issues it's been a weird couple weeks for editing. But don't worry, we've got a jampacked episode so you haven't been waiting for nothing! We've got HarveyZ's encounter with a minotaur, we've got a nostalgia trip back to the N64 (and finding that the rose-tinted glasses lose their tint quite quickly) and we've got a bunch of not-E3 roundup including the Street Fighter 6 roster leak! Atma even takes the time to explain the difference between Battle Passes and Season Passes to Harvey! Lots of content to enjoy this week! Enjoy!

In today's episode, we are discussing the Current/Modern Gaming Era vs what I like to call the Classic or Golden Age of gaming. We will be taking a step back in time before everyone had a launcher of their own. Before micro-transactions, Rampant DLC, and Battle Passes. Has gaming changed for the worse? Has gaming gotten much better and it's me or us that have changed since we've gotten older?

Join Smango on this episode and let him know over on Twitter what you think about the current state of gaming and if you agree with some of his points. ⌨️Website https://fulltechpodcast.com⌨️Full Tech YouTube Channel - YouTubeChannel⌨️Twitter https://twitter.com/thesmango⌨️Live Streaming - https://twitch.tv/TheSmango⌨️Discord - https://discord.gg/52etAD9

We played the open beta for Back 4 Blood, the new game from Turtle Rock Studios. We're excited to see where this game goes but right now it feels like it's missing something. Listen and find out. We also play Nintendo Labo, the part Lego part game that Nintendo brought out in 2018. Brett spent time building some of these cardboard creations and it's surprisingly a blast to build! Unfortunately, we close out with our disappointment in Sea of Thieves. It's not near as good with the new update as we hoped but at least the Adventure mode is still fun.In the news, Blizzard's President has left, Ghost of Tsushima Legends is going standalone and the Epic Games Store was crazy expensive. We also heard some news that South Park is bringing a new game, a series of new seasons and more.In our discussion, we talk about the state of microtransactions.  We used to be big against microtransactions but our idea has since shifted over time as they've developed. With the introduction of Battle Passes and clearer purchases, we've found ourselves investing more in them as they bring out more exciting content. However, the question still remains...are these content packs taking away from our original story content?Check out video clips of our news every week over on YouTube.Show Notes:4:05 - Back 4 Blood Beta37:39 - Nintendo Labo48:55 - Sea of Thieves: A Pirate's Life1:00:31 - Ghosts of Tsushima Legends, South Park and Epic Games Store1:29:29 - The State of Microtransactions1:51:45 - Upcoming Video Game ReleasesBecome a part of the conversation!

Is this because it was over hyped, are the fans just being asshats, or what's the deal. Full disclosure, I've only seen tweets and small paragraphs of people's thoughts on the game. Haven't read a full review so take my opinion with a grain of salt. Mansocks: So.. the question then in my mind.. Why are ALL reviews a 7 or 8 or 9 or 9.5 or .2 err 9.2 We never see "Damn this game just sucks.. 1 out of 10" at least from the mainstream reviewers TheBigDog: With Fortnite being the Smash Bros of the shooting genre by adding Kratos and a rumored Master Chief, who would you guys like to join the game?

That is if Santa thinks you were good enough to get one.

Keine Review gibt es heute vom Michael. Der redet lieber über Battle Pässe und klärt zum Beispiel darüber auf, dass eben nicht Epic Games die Erfinder der Battle Passes sind. In den paar Minuten, die er erübrigen konnte, während er sich in verschiedenen Spielen durch die Tiers grindet. Zeit hat er sicher auch für eure Meinung zum Thema.

We go deep on MMO culture, and why WoW Classic seems to be doing so well this week. Lots to say about it. More NMS stuff too, and some thoughts on Battle Passes again.

Tonight we talk about the Switch Lite announcement and how it may not be for all of us, but is absolutely the use case for at least one of our numbers.  We also wonder how long before we get an announcement of the console only Switch Pro, since we now have a handheld only version. We dive into the Magic 2020 set and some of the interesting metas that it does a good job of breaking up.  From there we talk about Battle Passes and the one MTG Arena has landed upon specifically. Lastly we talk a whole lot of nonsense about Final Fantasy XIV Shadowbringers I believe with minimal spoilers. Topics Discussed The Switch Lite Announcement Magic 2020 Set MTG Arena Battle Pass More Shadowbringers discussion

Welcome to The Feed from Geek Mountain, Episode 10! Ahhh, the breeze is... w-wait what?? Lootboxes? Downloadable content? Pay-to-win?! BATTLE PASSES?! COSMETICS?! How did all of this get in this week's episode? Gaming was different back on the old mountain. Everything was unlockable by skill and hard work. These microtransactions have invaded every gaming platform and genre; multiplayer and single-player; online and offline. This week's mountain features Shoryuken Pizza and Jacuzzi figuring out why microtransactions have climbed to the top of the cliff, overlooking all of humanity as peasants with gambling addictions and gullible tendencies.

This introductory episode gives the basic outline for G.E.M. State of Mind's podcast structure.We talk about who we are, what we are doing, and then inevitably derail into discussions concerning Battle Passes, Spartan yeets, and whether or not Darth Vader could canonically fly through space using the force. Come and take a listen to two best friends chatting about the things they love: Gaming, Entertainment, and Movies.

Folks…There’s been some exciting things going on in the last week. Whooo-eee! This Bounty Board has a whole lot of news for you! From trailers out the wazoo, to Disney and Fox finalizing their merger, to Battle Passes, to Anniversary content, to Suicide Squad reboots. This week has been CRAZY! All of that news culminated with Google’s unveiling of Stadia, a new platform for gaming, and it has been all we have been able to talk about.So, join the crew this week as we dive into, not only what Stadia will mean for the industry immediately, but what the future of gaming looks like overall. Will streaming be the main way to play games in the future? How far away is that future? How long until games on disc are treated like VHS and production of physical media halts altogether? There are a lot of questions in here and we do our best to come to conclusions on as many as we can.News for the week:LucasArts Returns?
