I feel like I should comment just because a lot of people don't really understand Sony, or really just view it as SIE/Sony of America, but Sony is not based in California, just SIE is, Sony is still based and HQ'd in Japan and the Japanese branch runs a lot differently than the US one, in fact 99% of the problems people have with Sony is because of the US branch. For the anime sector, Sony of Japan, under SMEJ, already owns Aniplex and Aniplex produces Frieren, Dandadan, the Monogatari series, all of the Fate series except Prisma Illya and Demon Slayer among other anime they produce. In regards to censorship, it's not decided by Sony, since Sony of Japan likes to be hands off, it's decided by the studios; it's why MAPPA, who wants to keep their shows age ratings low, censors Ranma 1/2 but ScienceSaru, who doesn't care, does not censor Dandadan even though both anime are produced by Sony. In terms of games, Sony of Japan owns two studios, Team Asobi and Sony XDEV Japan, everyone knows Team Asobi now however Sony XDEV Japan is a dev studio designed, since both are just a reorganized Japan Studio, to help Asian devs make games for PlayStation, for example they helped make Stellar Blade. With all that out of the way, Sony won't try to influence Kadokawa since 1, it's Sony of Japan and Sony Group and 2 they really don't want to micro-manage everything they own since they do more than just games and anime.

sigh intel cpu again, why do so many oem still have intel as on option.....at least nowdays when they are years behind AMD (and more expensive), plus all their security problems don't really help either (which can be fixed afterwards...but with performance looses)

What's your "point" here ?
sense when have a controller had any identity what so ever? especially a gender one, I mean how far is this "identity bs politcs" going? it doesn't make sense at all, it never did in the first place...and when it comes from companies it's always insincere Virtue signalling bs anyways

no wonder google and other companies faill if they only care about being woke

Hi elisto,

It's unfortunate how History gets distorted, am well aware in my home country how a terrorist is viewed amongst the world as a great leader. It's all to be politically correct and seems the world does not take too well to admitting truth. But a game it is and as a game I think it is pretty good. Always good to have some references to real history and be enlightened. Would also be great to call a spade a spade, but in certain countries like where I am, one can be imprisoned and lose everything you own and seen as a racist. This is way off topic, I apologize.

A big thanks to Feral for their on going support and great ports!
it's so "funny" how people aren't really allowed to criticise the left or even talk about the horrors that (far-)left/Marxism has done, but still there is a view that (far-)left/Marxism hasn't done anything bad/wrong it's only the (far-)right aka nazis, even when (far-)left/Marxism has killed many times more people than Nazis ever did. For example it fine to celebrate Lenin which is like celebrating Hitler, same goes with Stalin, Castro and then there is Mao who was bigger monster than Stalin or/and Hitler.

if interested, Dr. Jordan Peterson talked about the horrors of Marxism in this 30min video clip [External Link] ...and it's from this 2h30min video [External Link]

Jim Sterling has been talking about this "steam issues" extendedly/extensively : youtube-link [External Link] (and oc this video got flagged by youtube [External Link]

why are these VN games getting banned? well it's all just because of some Morality In Media, a group of lobbyists is "crying" ...

And why are they just attacking these games? well because it's easier to attack small/cult games than AAA games, I think we all already know that steam doesn't have any quality control or care about the content in the games which makes this even more stupid.

I would call this even discriminatory action from steam. But this really typical western bullshit so I'm not surprised that this is happening.

Also there is already a petition for this [External Link] with many names, but like always it wont matter

Quoting: ahjolinnawho cares, modern Atari is just awful shell of the old Atari, somehow people have forgot that Atari went bankrupt and Infogrames Entertainment bought it, so this new/modern Atari has nothing to do with the old one...nothing..accept the brand.

also it seems this "modern Atari" is way more interestered about "political correct games" [External Link] instead of making good games (like Ubisoft, EA and Activision)..at least that's how I interpreted this.
You start saying "who cares" because the new Atari isn't the old Atari, you know what, i don't care.

I can understand that you don't like "more inclusive games" (maybe you are one of those alt-right morons) but i can't respect it as you can see (yes, you can say i'm triggered, another thing i don't care). Your post is so ridiculous that you just said that Ubisoft, EA and Activision make good games, are you kidding me? In which universe?? (You actually made me laugh)

I'll try to prove you that Ubi, EA and Activision are doing some shitty games, but with the arguments of a braindead alt-right scum.
EA celebrates LGBT:

Ubisoft trying to push liberal agenda:
http://www.pinknews.co.uk/2015/09/25/assassins-creed-to-add-first-transgender-character/ [External Link]

And what can i say about Activision, Tracer from Overwatch is a lesbian so... I think that EVERY damn company does some PINKWASHING so they can clean their image.

I hope this Ataribox to have a great success, i don't care about Atari's games, i'm only thinking on Linux future right now, if the console sells only because it is "Atari" it's a good thing for all of us. Just like people is paying today for those MiniNES and MiniSNES, and Nintendo is so much different now.
I actully did mean that Ubisoft, EA and Activision also care more about making politically correct games than good games...it seems I wrote/edited little bit hastily (as I was in a hurry) and thats why it may look like I meant the opposite of what I actually wanted to say.

anyway, about the Atari thing, why I dont care about this new modern Atari is that I have really no trust in that company after they released those horrible remakes (and its shady background)...and I really could give less of a shit that they use Linux on their new gaming system ...if you do, more power to you.
