Man was not meant to go this far. Read more

Coming up to two decades on and I still remember the Dragonzord summoning music. Read more

I knew it was finished once he begin the dreaded 'throat hold' technique. As if the 'high speed vacuum' wasn't enough. Read more

The first MMO that I wasted a good amount of life on was FFXI, and then I moved to WoW for a few years. Through all those years, one thing remained constant; my hate for the term "toon." Read more

See, this makes more sense now. They're basically saying:

"MGS V has turned out to be really really expensive and has taken a really really long time to develop so we want to sell it for $90, and we also want to start recouping some of our costs sooner rather than later, but market trends won't allow that price point,… Read more

US news sensationalizes criminals. Just look at any mass shooting and the shooter more often then not is made into a rock star. Read more

Wholeheartedly agree, bugs me too, apparently the only options are 8-bit or other. Read more

agreed, what's more annoying is that so many of these 8 bit games then just rotate the sprite so we ended up with a diagonal pixel :( Read more

Yeah, I noticed than. Not 8 - bit in the least. Read more

Let's just call it "pixel art". "Retro", if you must, although those sprites look very modern to me. Read more

You can see in the video that the PS4 does in fact move, but only if you press down on it, which is not a thing I expect most people will do. Even if you feel the need to do so, the console moves so little that I doubt you'd be able to damage it just by wobbling. Read more

Fun fact: We're eating fish faster than they can breed. Ocean stocks are at all time lows, and getting lower. Every year there are less to catch, and thanks to increasing human population we catch more. The EU regularly employs environmentalists to provide guidelines for them about how many fish should be caught, and… Read more

I agree, OoT is overrated. Majora's Mask had some great moments, but they pretty much all occurred when it deviated from OoT's design. Read more

Holy fuck! Can you imagine this guy at the office? People'd be calling him like, "Mr. Superman, Mr. Superman, sir". And he'd be like, "Please.... Call me Batman". Read more

Sure it can - one has to agree to said TOS before they have authorization to access the network. Any access that bypasses or refuses the TOS is unauthorized. Read more

Thank the heavens. I'm not the only one, then. Read more

This sounds right. In conversations like this one, I'm used to seeing gamers fixate on story and art direction to make the case for games as art, when these are the elements games share with cinema. The MoMA curator stressed "interaction design" and the way that games generate virtual spaces with their own unique… Read more

Blegh, I'm sorry, there is a lot of talent on display in games like Bioshock, but they're "Art" in the same way that that a pulp novel is "Literature". Yes, they are both artistic expressions, crafting by talented people, but they don't really contribute the an intellectual conversation in a meaningful way, and are… Read more

At first judging by the headline I was going to cry Conspiracy and say it was in the game the whole time. But yes, that's cute. Read more
