If you know, you know.
On topic of sad gaming news, Kazuhisa Hashimoto (inventor of Konami code) passed away.

Anything to spice up this dusty crypt I'm down for.


Also, why are they shutting them down anyways? Do they not view the forums as necessary anymore? Because it seems like a major console would want to have a place for the community to have discussion. Are they just going to rely on Reddit now?

Signature goes here.
As upsetting as it is for me to say, online forums are pretty much a legacy system these days. Chat based appliacations like Skype, Discord, etc. dominate nowadays because discussion is much easier. While I figure forums will be around for years to come (Reddit & 4chan show no signs of slowing down) it doesn't make much sense for big corporate companies to use up server space on a forum that only a handful of people will regularly use when that space can be used for literally anything else.
