@get2sammyb Your use of puns never ceases to amaze me.

@get2sammyb Depends on how long you spend on the tedious puzzles.

@get2sammyb I'd say around 4ish hours. Maybe a little more.

@Matroska So the first article you posted said betas were used to raise awareness as well as "test software performance under real-world circumstances." So there's that. The second (who even says "part server stress-test") is an author's opinion on what the beta was used for, just like the author from this article: https://www.vg247.com/2015/10/12/was-the-star-wars-battlefront-beta-a-mistake/ says that, "The Battlefront beta was a technical test, not a demo designed to sell the game." Is hype-building a part of it? Sure. But it's not even close to the only reason.

@Matroska Not true in the slightest. The biggest two betas of the last two years were the Battlefront and Destiny betas. Both were used as giant technical tests for server, balancing, and bugging issues. It's the same reason Black Ops 3 had a beta this year. Not to mention that Blops 3 and Battlefront are the last two games that need a "hype generator." It can only hurt their game.

I too, enjoy alliteration

@itshoggie Betas and demos are completely different things. We'll continue to see a growing number of betas. Demos, on the other hand, are a thing of the past.

But really, does anyone play demos anymore?

So pumped for this. Crimes and Punishments was one of last year's most underrated games.

@Matroska Wasn't going to argue either side as it would have taken up too much of the review, and IMO it's irrelevant anyways. I'm the type of guy who leans towards most things being a "game." I believe Three Fourths Home is a game, just like I think Gone Home is a game and others like it. Just in case you were wondering .

@Kidfried Definitely a game worth more attention. Glad you liked the review!

This may be the greatest news story I've ever read.

Just like Castlevania continued without Igarashi lolololol.

I've always wanted to see Killzone Shadow Fall come to the collection. Not to mention I think Sony is due to bring a AAA game to the scene.

@AFCC Wow!
Wow!
What a save!

@stevie85 Agreed 100% on The Witcher 3. Such a fantastic game. My personal GOTY so far, though I suspect Fallout 4 will give it a good run for its money .
