Tonight’s South Park was all about the console wars

Done Game of Thrones style Tonight’sSouth Parkepisode was brilliant. It’s all about the console wars, themedGame of Thronesstyle. It’s the Xbox One versus PlayStation 4 fanboys as they go to war over securing one of the next-generation consoles during Black Friday. This is just part one, can’t wait to see part two. So much of this episode reminded me of actual console fanboy stupidity. The only thing I want to know is was that Kaz Hirai or Shuhei Yoshida in that Sony building scene?...

Wander on PS4 and PC is horribly broken

How did this get through certification? It gives me no joy to report that one of myfavorite games of PAX East 2015,Wander, has been released in a broken state. Players are reportingall kinds of issues with it on the PS4 subreddit, including crashing, broken or missing mechanics, and the game not even saving progress. I dabbled in a build of the game for PC last night for a few minutes just to see how the final version played: At one point my mouse stopped responding, rune stones that required you to draw with your mouse never seemed to function, and I didn’t see a single other player, which isn’t great for a just-released MMO....
