Update on Bioware's Anthem: It's really not looking good.
61 OC (36 reviews, 14% recommend)
For reference--Mass Affect: Andromeda, Hellgate London (up until now, Bioware's worst-reviewed game in recent memory), and even Sonic Chronicles all received better reviews and metascores.
Moreover, Andromeda was by the former Bioware Montreal division, the supposed "B Team" studio. Anthem is from the main Edmonton studio (the "A Team") and they spent roughly 6 years developing this game.
Meanwhile, EA wants this game to ship 5-6 million units by the end of their fiscal year (in other words, over the next six weeks)...yet there are reports of the game are hitting discount prices at certain stores on its (wide) release date?
The starting MSRP for the game in Euros is €69, but this photo was taken at a local German store...
...PS4 version on sale for €39.
AU MSRP is reportedly $89, but Harvey and AU Amazon have it at $55, while JB-HIFI is at $65. People are saying they've never seen a new game heavily discounted so quickly since...Fallout 76...
...could the PapEA comic finally come true?

Well it's not doing as well as they hoped and I had an hunch about this. It just didn't look appealing. It's like EA telling BioWare to make a Destiny styled game and didn't really have much experience since they usually do single player games. If it doesn't get turned around, that comic might come true or at least reduce the staff. That 10 year goal won't be achieved that's for sure. Microsoft would also be fuming because they paid for marketing this game on their consoles to the point where one of the high up staff is defending the game like anything.
I think if it wasn't for Apex Legends literally being in the right place at the right time, EA would have been really suffering by now. What with Battlefield V, FIFA 19 having Christano Ronaldo on the cover that got changed recently following what happened as well as the Belgium loot box thing that EA are complaining about and now this.
However it seems the people of the UK have a different idea because Anthem is Number 1 on Amazon where the stock (from them anyway) has sold out. £50+ (full price and then some) for an online only game? Ugh... Then again it is probably an unique case and will find out on Monday.

For those who missed it:
"In the rules of Super Smash Bros., the battles are represented by two separate but equally important groups: The challengers, who fight for the crown; and the King, who presides as the judge, jury, and executioner. These are their stories."

With Iwata gone and now Reggie stepping down, this really does feel like an end of an era....
(e: forgot to mention it's been said miyamoto's also been taking a backseat as well in regards to nintendo management, IIRC)

Last month, a group of scientists went to the forests of Indonesia to search for the Wallace's giant bee. This species was last seen alive in 1981 and was thought to be extinct...until now.
Something has survived...a female...
(Warning: Emphasis on "giant" bee--this is believed to be the planet's largest bee on record.)
For reference, here's a comparison shot of a living Wallace giant bee next to a honeybee...

not exactly the best week for gaming, is it?
-

@Bobnik I'm saying week, since you still have reviews and impressions coming up prior to the actual release date.
And yes, Metro Exodus is getting good reviews, but that's...one out of four games released today/this week that wasn't considered average.
(Although with that said, I didn't make the image myself.)

Let's see; Sumo Digital's worst game since Dead Space Ignition (personally Katsuma Unleashed but not enough reviews) and on par with their Payday 2 port, a formula that is getting tired and review bombed over microtransactions (either that or people complained about the characters), unfinished licensed fighting game that could be considered shovelware in its native country and apparently a pretty good open world FPS that has some issues.
Even though if you are a PC gamer, you could argue that its not a good week considering Metro Exodus is an Epic Store "exclusive" for a year.
