I remember when I got this guide when Final Fantasy 7 came out. I used to read this shyt religiously and I had the poster on my wall throughout HS and college.

Video game magazines and strategy guides were 2 things I miss pre internet days

Damn i just got hit in the mouf with some god damn nostalgia

Kotaku is mostly ass but it’s still in my rotation of websites I check every day to see if there’s something new.


This is trash

Unmatched for Yakuza games.

Lots of gaming wikis and video guides are fukking terrible, so I'm totally open to a modern alternative.

They are trying to get their whole staff to quit and retard x-bots are in this thread like "great idea, GREAT IDEA".

Are Guides and reviews why IGN has been able to stick around so long?

guides for games?

How is that gonna work? Feels like Kotaku and its network of sister sites have been in a death spiral for the past 5 years or so

I guess like IGN’s walkthrough/guide section. It’s surprisingly deep and helpful. It’s kotaku though, they’ll probably fukk it up

Games media is fukked

It's been fukked for years since they relied on rage from Twitter to get clicks.

I find it weird places like Gamespot have zero to little imprint on YouTube when there's guys like RadBrad and SkillUp and Angry Joe making a killing on gameplays and reviewing games.

Console war and thirst bucket headlines running out of steam i guess

No, the hedge fund capital is gone.

Kotaku should have been dead when Hoegan buried Gawker.

I’m not sitting there reading a guide when I can just to go YouTube and see it for myself.

Honestly guides are easier a lot of the time.

Soon they'll be shifting to bankrupt and out of business...
