NSW in place of Switch or NS, awful shortening that just makes it look like I'm reading up on porn
The forever grating one though and even officially recognised is the appalling:
GCN
There is no point in the systems existence that it was called the Gamecube Nintendo. It's frustratingly wrong on every level and because it's a multi-syllable named system it doesn't need the companies name mixed in there at all. The Playstation is referred to by PS, not SPS. Dreamcast is DC, not SDC. Gamecube = GC
It's what Gemma Collins would want

As far as GCN, reminds me of when I was younger and could never understand TSB Bank as it literally meant Trustees Savings Bank.....Bank.

The fact that main quests don't scale with your level in a lot of open world games. When they give you the freedom to side quest for three hours (or more) in between main quests, it seems awfully silly that main quests don't scale as you level up from side quests. Makes the combat main quests and boss fights much less dramatic.

So Lego Jurassic World crashed for us a few times. Properly crashing out with an error screen. Never had a game do that on a console. Never. Sometimes had graphical/physical bugs like characters getting stuck(happens a lot in Lego JW too but easily fixable by joining the game as P2 and switching characters) but nothing like that.
I assumed it was the SSD so switched back to HDD and had far fewer crashes(maybe two before we finished the game).
Now those kinds of things may not be preventable which is fair enough, but I bought Tetris Ultimate recently and that has an awful bug where the music pops like static. It’s especially when I’m using the hi-fi because the TV speakers lack bass.
What’s worse is I really really like the music! I went on YouTube to listen to it and the guy had used game sharing to record the song and his video had the popping sounds, too! I initially thought it was part of the song - glitching FX or something - but it isn’t! When I google, I can only find PC users complaining.
How can something like this happen? How can a game be released in this state?
A friend used to work for Sony QA and told me how they’d deny games for using the wrong shade of blue in X button icons!
I know unfinished/buggy games is a thing these days but music? It’s just a file!
