  1. Shadowrun: Uniquely differs from Cyberpunk in that Shadowrun involved *fantasy races* rather than only humans, as well as **magic**. But, yeah, it went nowhere. Shadowrun had a "came and went" card game, and even a game that had Shadowrun action figures (figures looked good, but were too costly, and hobby gamers didn't play with dolls. 😛

  2. EA didn't make them release when they did. They actually asked multiple times if Respawn was sure. Respawn insisted on it. There's interviews from back then. Everyone hates EA but this one is on Respawn for being bullheaded.

  3. Red Faction was another really dumb one… People were very transparent with what they liked about Guerrilla, yet for some baffling reason Armageddon came out. Astonishing

  4. Christ, EA and Activision need to die already. Between shutting down talented studios to guy them of assets to Bobby Kotick telling a female employee he could have her killed, both those places are cesspools.

  5. I want Battlefield: Bad Company 3….sequel was hands down best battlefield game in the whole series….even today there's a lot of us playing on ….certain servers…
    And NO blue shit tint….

  6. If you regularly watch the YT "Why a business failed" videos, owner change almost always crops up. (If the business involves stores, then next comes "taking on a ton of debt and overexpanding". If it involves food, then next comes "cutting back on quality to save expenses".)

  7. Hot take: ShadowRun 2007 was actually a good FPS. It has some very cool mechanics and the maps captured a lot of the universe's style but it just wasn't a good ShadowRun game.
