I haven't thought about burning CDs in a long time, man that takes me back. Remember Nero Burning ROM?
I think the etymology of the term is that when you're writing data onto a disk you're shooting a laser onto it to alter the chemistry and change its color, for which "burning" the data into it makes sense.
Unironically the only real highlight PS5 brought to the table was adaptive triggers/haptic feedback on controllers.
I didn't realise. I'm not familiar with this site, but as already said in the other comment they apparently run different headlines for mobile/desktop. Maybe all sites do and I've just never realised.
OP, why did you editorialise the title? Much like the other commenter I was initially offended on Uematsu's behalf, but after clicking the link I noticed the original headline was:
How Final Fantasy maestro Nobuo Uematsu legitimised video game music

Go home Polygon, you're drunk.
It's an underappreciated fact that art direction trumps graphical fidelity, and it's not close.

I believe "Russian Bot Farm Presence" is the preferred metric of social network relevance in the scientific community.
I'm shocked! Who could have predicted this?
I don't really agree with the selection or the ranking, but I do really appreciate the attempt of going for "what's best to play right now" instead of ranking by historical significance or some kind of futile "objective" quantification.
It works better as a sort of "100 good games to play in no particular order, with individual descriptions of why" than any sort of ranked list to compare with other ranked lists, though.
You can accuse Peter Molyneaux for a lot of things, but he did manage to come up with some interesting wacky shit interspersed with all the exaggerations and scams.
Ah, that's what it was! I always thought it was just a different color for 0 and 1, today I learned! That makes more sense when I think about it.
