I have NOT gone to see the Sonic the Hedgehog movie because I'll be biased against it - but I've realized I need to shhh and let people enjoy things, like the infamous webcomic says. Sony is struggling with the price of the PlayStation 5, as it has been reported that it will cost $450 to produce. Activision Blizzard has pulled all of its titles from the NVIDIA GeForce NOW streaming service one week after its official launch. Geoff Keighley has announced that he will not be working with E3 this year which signals a big change in direction for the show. The IRS has clarified that in-game currency like Fortnite V-Bucks are NOT taxable by the federal government like bitcoin and other virtual currency. Then we talk about random things such as game backlogs and how the original Phantasy Star Online: Episode I & II does not stand up to the test of time.

It's been awhile since the PC release of this game has been out, but now the game is available on the Nintendo Switch. Here are my thoughts on the port.

Star Wars seeks to break out of its own chains and contemplates how to learn from failure in the middle chapter of the third trilogy. Warning: There will be SPOILERS!

This is a follow-up to Star Wars Battlefront II's Loot Box Problem, posted on VOG earlier this week.

Battlefront II's release this week is also highlighted by the growing debate over loot boxes – specifically those that players believe to be P2W (pay to win). The arguments supporting this vary from the corporate side of things (additional revenue channel needed to fund expensive development for this and future projects) to those completely opposed to it (introducing unfair advantages in multiplayer between the haves and the have-nots).
