If you were wondering where this post was last week, we decided to hold off until the E3 craziness was over, the sub was nuts but it was super fun. This week I've added Metacritic scores, if available yet. The format is Critic score/user score. Some games don't have enough critic reviews for a metascore, so I just put the user score down.

| Joe Smedley, former head of Sony Online Entertainment, on why Sony isn't allowing cross play... Posted: 18 Jun 2018 09:06 PM PDT From his Twitter account: " btw when I was at Sony, the stated reason internally for this was money. They didn't like someone buying something on an Xbox and it being used on a Playstation. simple as that. dumb reason, but there it is." https://twitter.com/j_smedley/status/1008847050744578050 EDIT: His name is John, not Joe. I don't know how I managed to mess his name up, but I did. Sorry about that. [link] [comments] |

| Posted: 19 Jun 2018 08:48 AM PDT Any reason why the redshell controversy has not been discussed in r/Games? It seems crucial information for a gaming subreddit. Redshell is a spyware program which is installed automatically and without consent in many steam games (civ 6, battlerites, all total wars, kerbal space program, elder scroll online). It tracks your browsing and gather info on your system to help companies evaluate whether their marketing is effective. Redshell and game publishers claim data is anonymized and harmless, but this is difficult to check and the fact remains that it is spyware installed without knowledge nor permission. Here you can find succint neutral summaries. This is the thread the started it all, which now expanded with many updates. [link] [comments] |
