I've already seen a number of people these past two weeks accuse them of selling CD-Rs of Xbox and PlayStation discs.
There's no point in trying to logic you way through any of this. They're just angry kids and 20-somethings online that edgelord post like this every day.

Kids still being "normal" about LRG. I'm sure they're here for the BDS movement, right?

We're excited and proud to announce that Digital Foundry is now fully independent, having parted ways amicably with IGN. In this DF Direct Special, we share our thoughts and aspirations for the future of the channel: youtu.be/tl7bIJ2yu4I

Person: Why don't you use AI?
Me: Because I can do the job better than it can.
Person: But AI can do it faster!
Me: But I can still do it better.

Seriously, AI is the equivalent of the "Max Power Way" from The Simpsons.

Bart: Isn't that the wrong way?
Homer: Yeah, but FASTER!

When TMS produced the animated adaptation of Magic Knight Rayearth (1994), the studio's parent company - Sega- asked AM3 to create the computer graphics for the opening sequence, which was later used in the Saturn game developed by Sega RPG Production.

So to be absolutely clear: no generative AI was used in Earthion’s final version, and we fully respect the work of human artists and voice talent.

Yes, I agree. I think the issue right now is that, in some territories, the conversation hasn't reached that point. Finding ways to highlight this is important but also challenging! I was certainly surprised in talking to many JP devs. There is a huge disconnect there.

I know this myself from talking to so many devs in Japan this past May. Culturally, the Western view on this stuff simply isn’t there and knowledge about what it truly is hasn’t disseminated yet. It’s so super different right now.

Also it may not hurt to give Koshiro the benefit of the doubt because culturally speaking Japan can be behind on a lot of what AI truly is or him being chummy to Musk on a very surface level. They can still issue out patches that take out the AI audio and carts, discs haven't been printed yet.

I've ordered several times from LRG I can say there is a fair bit of internet hyperbole when it comes to how slow they are or the quality of their products. But can't discount developers, outside of LRG, doing this like this. Because of how cutthroat revenue is for games, can't just break contract.

My Switch picked a hell of a time to let the battery malfunction. I'm hoping I don't have to send it in for repairs.

I was halfway thinking I should just get, at least, a Switch OLED but guess what happened instead?

For a period of time this was my Super Nintendo and SEGA Genesis machine; a laptop that was set to be thrown put at my dad's job and this becamey primary way to discover games I've missed. Great for when you're traveling to the cousins.

There was a reason I stockpiled on a lot of games and accessories before the tariffs really hit. Pretty soon I'll just have to ignore anything and everything coming out. Right wingers really do want to take away your hobbies, and jobs for that matter, however they can.

What concerns me a little is that I never typed out HIPAA. So whomever created this now viral screenshot that is on 4 different apps now changed it to spell it out. While harmless, it scares me because people can make anything look like anything now

it goes further: Yu Suzuki had a oh-shit-the-boss-is-here button installed on his devkits that'd corrupt the screen and make the game look visibly "unfinished", in order to keep his boss from trying to force the game out the door ASAP shmuplations.com/afterburner/
