They'll resolve it. Not just for the gaming industry but across the board. Way too much fabrication is routed through China for manufacturing and this is a child exercising power-play just because he has the bigger stick.

https://kotaku.com/sony-microsoft-and-nintendo-come-out-against-trump-s-1835878667 Long story short, if Playstation, Nintendo and Microsoft don't get too much resolution they will raise the price on their consoles as part of the tariff to combat what its going to cost them. This means things like Scarlett will probably end up being a lot more expensive. I don't get it honestly because this isn't really hurting China but it should be interesting to see what happens with this and the prices customers are going to have to eventually pay as well. Edit: You're only screwed if you live in America. The Chinese/Japanese variants of Nintendo and Playstation consoles will work out just fine pricewise.

As with any footballing event, the knockouts is really the best part of the competition and i've seen some good games so far. The best one being the one from last night Netherlands vs Japan.

500 million is a good negotiation starting point I suppose. They'll have the money for it soon anyways be a shame to see it all go to waste.

Just had a nice little run on the Switch with Operation C that is a part of the Konami Anniversary Contra bundle. What a good trip down memory lane. The other additions are great as well like the original Contra variants and Hard Corps as well.

I agree. I think its a bit clunky overall but Post Season 1 they really did some great stuff to it. Shame they killed it off but if RARE wants to revive it for the Switch I would not think thats a bad thing.

One of the nice things about Nintendo and M$ doing work together is the distant hope that RARE puts Killer Instinct on the Switch even if its a dated version.

Think the first and the third are very good the middle one is good too just not as good as the first which was super for the time.

Think its warranted honestly based on the history that the Chinese have with their treating of extradited offenders. Can't imagine too many people in HK are very happy about the second reading and what could come to pass.

Was talking more about the fact that they started then scrapped everything and since then there's been absolutely no news on whether they've managed to jump that hurdle and things are actually in development or not.

The other side news that has come from E3 which is music to my ears is that AMD is pushing the envelope against Intel in the I5 vs Ryzen department. That just means cheaper core hardware to get a better PC gaming experience. My PC has been due for an upgrade for a bit now so maybe in December I'll finally chuck in a Threadripper and give it a much needed boost.

I like how they are still sticking with it on the current Switch and not peddling a new console for it. I was only really disappointed that two things I wanted to hear about didn't get addressed. The status of the new Metroid No news about the rumors flying around that Konami were trying to get a new Castlevania specifically for the Switch

Mmm mmm mmmm

That was my gripe with it too. The fun part of it is setting it to a slightly higher difficulty and scanning the zones better but the bosses do offer some level of difficulty which can be appreciated. I expect the sequel to be more of the same. The kicker for me with Doom specifically was the music. On a side note, Metro is so painful to play, slow paced and a bit hard to control really.

Not bad at all. I am guessing this is going into your purchase list?

If you've never seen the music video here you go.

Well a lot of people are liking Doom Eternal and with good cause as well. I saw the first demo and thought it was more of the same but they've added more mechanics and the game is still as much fun. Cant wait for the release now. This also caught my attention. Curious to see what they do with this game because it has a good dev team behind it.

Was playing a gig last night when the match was going on and got to see some of it towards the end. Glad we won.
