@fig56: How is that a problem? If that person is more qualified they get the job. If they don't get the job then, clearly, there's something wrong (usually they're being discriminated against).

Maybe someone can explain to me how this is non-discriminatory. Let's take a simple example: for a development position you have 4 applicants. Three of them are white/Asian males (the dominant ethnicity of software developers) and one is a woman or minority. If the minority applicant is less skilled than any of the three white/Asian males how is it fair to cut one of the more skilled candidates in favor of the less skilled one just to be inclusive? I mean the only thing that this solves is that that person is being discriminated and one of the better qualified candidates is still just as likely to be picked.

If you want to increase diversity in IT jobs you have to start tackling the real issues: change education in the earliest stages of life to push girls towards STEM careers, ensure minorities receive better education, have better living conditions and are more engaged in school, make attending college cheaper so that more minorities can afford it, offer better benefits for mothers, etc.

@inkman66: It's the way Gamespot auto-censoring works. I have no idea why they censor certain words and not others.

The reason why Nintendo's consoles and games are so fucking expensive is because they haven't been ported to every system imaginable. Why anyone would buy this is beyond me.

For those of you who don't know, this is just one of several versions of this console made. It has about 40 games you'd want to play and the rest are "Arcade hits" which is just marketing jargon for unheard of or bootleg crap. Out of those 40 title you can get ALL of the Sega exclusives on the Ultimate Sonic Genesis Collection for 15 fucking dollars, not 80. And if you don't have a PS3 or Xbox360 you can buy Sega Genesis Collections on PS2 and PSP. Oh, and if that isn't enough, you can also buy one of the DOZENS of weekly releases with all types of Sega games that came out on the PS2 in Japan. AND IF EVEN THAT doesn't scratch your fancy you can buy the Sega and Mega Drive package on Steam for $62, that amounts to 59 games with PERFECT emulation on anything newer than a 486.

So don't be duped by this garbage. The cartridge slot is not worth all that money. If you want to use cartridges just buy a regular Genesis or Mega Drive. They're cheap as **** and so are the games.

DON'T confuse this with Nintendo's releases. This will NEVER sell out and it will NEVER be worth jack shit because most of this stuff is available on every platform imaginable to man.

@kiloman_74: What the actual **** are you talking about? What are you replying to? If you're not capable of reading and understanding basic English I'm sure there's plenty of sites in your native language where you can do a better job of commenting.

@wrngsurgeon: Clearly smarter than you, as I know basic grammar. Protip: letters at the beginning of a sentence are capitalized.

@Metallicwolf29: You're perfectly fucking right! Gaming peaked during the PS3 and Xbox 360 era and it's now on the decline. Anyone with basic math skills (which excludes 90%+ of gamers) can tell you that. This generation has had games bombing left right and center. Just look at how many games (released on the PS4/Xbone) are rated 90+ by review aggregation sites and then compare it not to the whole of last generation, but just the first 3 years! Then compare how many of those games aren't ports, remakes and HD rereleases... aaaand then compare how many of them are new IPs.

The state of the industry is shit. Each year of this generation was the same: a few good releases at the beginning of the year and then shit for the rest of the year (unless you count the CODs and anything else that the yearly franchises barf out). Yet people want more hardware. What the **** for? No one (including themselves) knows.

Surprised? Not really. This is pretty much this generation in a nutshell: delays and shitty games. Yet the retards are clamoring for PS5s and 40000K.

PS5 in 2020? Maybe. PS5 in 2019? Absolutely ZERO chances of that happening. Sony has at least 10 games announced for the PS4 many of which won't make their launch date, 2018. Some aren't even dated yet (FFVII:R, TLoU2, etc.). They will NEVER release a console before they release all these titles and before the PS4 reaches at least 80 million units sold.

As much as I might like Pachter he botches almost all of his PS related predictions. I think that while he has solid sources inside US companies but his information on Sony and Nintendo is generally dead wrong.
