Well, they have some competition a few blocks over on St. Marks Place in 8-Bit and Up and in my experience they offer more traditional service and much more reasonable prices. I've also seen stores that carry practically the same volume of import and rare game items and CHOOSE not to price gouge to the degree that… Read more

Part of the reason their inventory is so impressive is that nobody is going to pay $300 for a Famicom Disk System or $100 for an import copy of Final Fantasy V on SFC. They just amass it all because nobody is buying at the prices they're asking. Read more

Video Games New York is way WAY overpriced. Sure, they have an impressive collection of classic games, systems and video game oddities but you'll easily be asked to pay 2 to 3 times the market value (or more, depending on the age/rarity of the item). Read more

The problem is that all of the sure fire ways to trigger the ending DON'T WORK for everybody even if they follow those instructions exactly, to the letter, down the the second. Read more

I have a hard time believing that all of those commenters actually finished the demo. The demo is SO completely broken at the end (or contains an obtuse puzzle that the internet en masse has been unable to definitively figure out) that it saps nearly all of the fear and atmosphere out of it by the time you get to it.… Read more

A fucking Michael Bay Transformers movie apologist article on Kotaku. *SIGH* I'm not shocked at all to see this here. Read more

Oh no no no, they were NOT "Hispanic" (not that that would have been any better). They were clearly highly derogatory stereotypes of "African Americans". "Cringe worthy" doesn't even begin to describe it, I got douche chills so severe that I had to be rushed to the emergency room where they allowed me to watch the… Read more

Fair enough! (Though I'd still like to see a few fan-service cameos!) Read more

Considering that Uprising fits between Tron and Tron Legacy, that shouldn't affect Tron 3. On the subject of Tron 3 and Uprising how fucking amazing would it be if they slipped Elijah Wood in as a cameo as a programmer at Encom. Just give him a line or two about his new Security App. Read more

Poor Zed, I feel your pain over Tron Uprising not getting another season to wrap up all the loose ends that the season 1 finale left. Here's to hoping that we'll see more of you at some point ... hopefully they see fit to revive the Emmy award wining animated series (or at least give us a direct to video movie) when…

Holy shit, I just made the epic mistake of looking at your comment history. You're a motherfucking ROYAL TROLL TO THE NTH DEGREE. You're all the fuck over Gawker with vitriolic shit to say about practically every article. I knew you were a dimwit dipshit where video games are concerned but I had no clue that trolling… Read more

So, you're not in the beta, you have absolutely zero experience with it whatsoever and you feel that it's an acceptable move to label it an "out of the box failure", with, again absolutely no personal, hands-on experience. You're a shining example of everything that's wrong with this hobby. Easily, blindly manipulated… Read more

I believe that he meant to say: "I'm a tool who has nothing better to do with his time than to troll every single comment on this article that isn't slamming the service for some arbitrary reason. Oh, and by the way, I'm not actually in the beta and I don't have any real experience with it first-hand but I'm going to… Read more

Pointing out that I think you're a dickbag is the easy way to try to get the last word in. But you continue to dodge a simple question, are you in the NOW beta? Do you have any personal/first hand experience with everything that you're raging against? For every attempt that you make to try to get the last word in I'll… Read more

Oh, I can tell you first fucking hand, Rexpane IS ABSOLUTELY - THAT RETARDED. Read more

As I suspected, you completely avoided the most important question at hand: Have you, personally had any hands on experience with Playstation Now? Are you participating in the beta? Have you personally experienced what you've called "an out of the box failure"? Because if you have zero experience with the service then… Read more

Abbreviated development time, no pre-release review copies for game press and the inclusion of FUCKING BAYFORMERS = no way in hell I'm playing that shit, much less buying it. Read more

Son, you're an absolute fucking tool. I never, not one fucking time claimed that "anybody [or everybody] who experiences lag is living in the Midwest." That's a load of bullshit and you're putting words in my mouth that I never wrote. You're way WAY too fucking busy crusading all at once against every single comment… Read more

Here's a real-time map of national broadband speeds in the US. It is entirely fucking factual that the Midwest has the absolute LOWEST concentration of high speed internet. (Northeast has the highest concentration) So, what the fuck is your point again dickhead? http://www.broadbandmap.gov/speed Read more

Um, Jason, you do realize that they're not ALL paid demos, right? Try scrolling down, the bottom rows contain games that are completely free to play, and any game that you played during the previous demo period on the PS4 beta should still be accessible for free through your main PS4 media bar.
