@Chris Miller: I thought the Wii already proved nVidia's strategy was all wrong? Read more

@Can I Really Be the Hero?: My GF watches makeup tutorials on YouTube, and a while back before Sims 3 launched, one of them was talking about it. She called herself a "Simmer" and asked if people who watched her videos were "Simmers" too. Read more

@Yentz: I must admit, I'm biased. I have a 40GB a month cap and I share that with four other people. It's simply not feasible for me to buy games off Steam. I got Mirror's Edge in the sale a while back and still haven't installed it simply because I cannot justify blowing my share of the allowance downloading one game. Read more

@Harris Ichthyosis: I think you missed what I was trying to say. I think these charts aren't filled with the latest and greatest (ahem) because basically the PC offers, as Nintendo say, evergreen titles. People buy them because they are still worth playing. It has nothing to do with digital over boxed because there… Read more

I think this sort of highlights the difference for me between PCs and consoles. On the PC, you get a few games and they will last you for ages. On the console, you get a few games and you are lucky if they last you a week. Read more

@Simba Maliki: Uh, no. Note the word "All". You don't level up ALL the ones in your control. That was my point. Read more

@djfakt: Did you read what I wrote or are you trolling/being sarcastic. I was talking about RETAILERS, not consumers. Read more

@data_enabler: But in Pokemon, YOU don't level up; your Pokemon do. Read more

@mrpibb79: See but a misprint baseball card is stupid too. :P Read more

@Polite Society: You plan to be alive in 100 years time? Okay. Read more

Actually, given the importance of the NES in society (and I mean all of society) and given the importance of ROB in getting the NES anywhere, this is actually the first eBay game-related auction I haven't been like "Why would anyone pay so much for that?" (Like that stupid sports game that went for an obscene amount… Read more

@Ubersoldat19: RPGs are just based on chance (die rolls, random number generators, whatever) in one or more essential elements of the gameplay. Adventure games rely on skill alone. Read more

@iatw: Exactly. It also rules out other RPGs such as Dark Savior and Pokemon. Read more

@DrZaius: It was a joke. :| Read more

I always thought it was more like this: Read more

@fencermusashi: I dunno, it turned my opinion around. I hate most JRPGs (these days) but I'm enjoying FFXIII. Almost didn't see that coming, but really should have given how much the purists are moaning about it. :P Read more

@LucasReis: I was going to write my master's thesis on this once. Do we consider ourselves to BE the character, or do we consider ourselves to be an observer? It's interesting. Read more

@Nihilexistentialist: There's no need to get condescending. In fact, apart from Halo 3 and Perfect Dark Zero, the only other FPS in my collection is MW2. However, I was asking because I know COD4 didn't restrict you from online play if you didn't have them, where as Halo 3 would limit your options. Read more

Hahahaha, seriously? Wow. Read more

I think, more than anything, this probably comes down to the idea of brands and the perception of what those brands stand for. A lot of people I know who are Final Fantasy diehards are not actually a subset of gamers but a subset of weeaboos. It's Final Fantasy's Japanese nature they are drawn too — they'll be damned… Read more
