  • berfunkle posted a message in the forum topic F*** Fandom aka F*** Capitalism go home.. on the General Discussion board

    I don't have an MBA nor any business acumen, so I can't say one way or the other if the layoffs were warranted. After all, layoffs are happening everywhere in the tech/ online media industry as of lat...

    Truth be told, I'd rather not punish every company or CEO that has done wrong or at least perceived to have done wrong. The list is too long. Might as well, smash your iPhone, PS5 and Xbox , if you ...

    @efesell: You're right. Space travel/exploration is a waste of money anyway. Same goes for Starlink. Let the Ukrainians find other ways to communicate in their war. Not my concern.

    Say what you will about his antics, Elon Musk got the US back into crewed space travel, otherwise, we'd still be paying Russia for trips to the ISS at $60 million dollars a pop.And yes, I had to look...

    Any drug has the capacity to hurt you. Alcohol in excess is bad for you. It can give you cirrhosis of the liver. Caffeine can mess your heart up. I'm not up on the latest with weed, but I'm sure peopl...

    Wow, I didn't know "TV Guide" still existed.

  • berfunkle posted a message in the forum topic G4TV hit with layoffs. on the General Discussion board

    They never found their audience, and let's face it, there's too much competition out there. There's IGN, GiantBomb, Gamespot, and certainly others along with a lot of people doing patreons. All of th...

  • berfunkle posted a message in the forum topic Sony Announces Price Increases for PS5 in certain markets. on the PlayStation 5 board

    @thepanzini: That was my first reaction as well. They want to stay competitive in a market where the Xbox is running neck and neck with them.

  • berfunkle posted a message in the forum topic No Goodbye Montage for Jeff Gerstmann. on the General Discussion board

    As different Giantbombers leave and do their own thing, it splits the potential viewer base. Let's face it, there's a lot of content out there, and I for one, don't have a lot of time in the day to f...

  • berfunkle posted a message in the forum topic Jeff Gerstmann Appreciation Thread. on the Jeff Gerstmann board

    Jeff is a legend in games journalism. I suspect he'd roll his eyes or be embarrassed by that assertion, but it's the truth.

  • berfunkle posted a message on the post Giant News.

    I've always felt this website was personality driven, and without those personalities I've come to enjoy, I may have a hard time staying engaged. We'll see...

  • berfunkle posted a message in the forum topic The State of Premium. on the General Discussion board

    I'm looking forward next month to watching Sony's "State of Play, and other similar streams from Microsoft, Nintendo, etc while the Giant Bomb guys talk over. As a premium member, I never bothered to ...

    In 1975, my dad read aloud to the family a newspaper article about video games and how they were going to revolutionize home entertainment. I have to hand it to my father, he was always into the lates...

    A few years ago, I was browsing a message board about the FF13 trilogy and people were joking that somebody at SE must have had an unhealthy obsession with the Lightning character because FF13 had no...

  • berfunkle posted a message in the forum topic New PlayStation Plus tiers revealed. on the PlayStation Plus board

    I understand why they won't release brand new games to the premium service, but Sony should strongly consider adding first run games to the premium service several months after release. I would probab...
