I've got my doubts about Thief as well. Here's hoping, anyway. Read more
Nice. What did you think of Spec Ops? Read more
Check out OlliOlli when you get a chance! It rules. Read more
What if it was just them saying "fast facts" over and over and over for like a minute and a half. Read more

I am into this game so far but I would love for someone to explain to me how to pronounce the name. Do you pronounce all the n's? There are two too many n's in the name. Read more
I've been listening to this a bunch of times today and I'd say my one criticism is that Redman could've left more space in his solo for Martin's comping, particularly at the start - dude is so psyched to show off his licks that he leaves like a bar total of rest throughout his whole solo. Still... coming out of that… Read more
I haven't listened to Freedom in the Groove in a long time, though I got fairly deep into the album a few years after it came out, just as I was starting music school. DAMN this track... it came on Rdio over the weekend and I hadn't heard it in a while. I always liked Redman's faster stuff, but the dude could really… Read more

I'm really liking Bravely Default a lot, but the entire narrative around its creation is odd - like, Square can't seem to get final fantasy right, they're stuck between milking this rabid nostalgia-monster and making new graphicsgraphicsgraphics games with quasi real-time cinematic fighting and all this CGI. And every… Read more
Technically they're "asterisk bosses" but that term seems needlessly confusing for anyone who hasn't played the game. They're not quite mini-bosses (or maybe they are?), they're the bosses you take on to unlock new jobs. Anyway, termsssss Read more
Holy shit. Read more
They've got the PS4 dropping to a low of 33fps during gameplay with Xbox One dropping to a low of 24. Though for my part (I'm about 2/3rds or so of the way through the game on PS4), I've only noticed what felt like the 30-zone a few times on PS4 - the game mostly feels like it sits in the 50-60fps (or maybe 45-60)… Read more
Hmm, I don't know what to tell you - that's a screenshot I took with FRAPS directly from the PC version running on Ultra settings. Not the most flattering shot ever, but my intention was to take screenshots of an identical scene in both versions and put them side by side, mainly to highlight how different Lara looks.… Read more
Ha, that's great. I made this image for this article, and was kind of shocked at how well it came together.
Now playing
Not to mention that you can turn off XP gain to keep from becoming overpowered, meaning you can just grind for job points or even turn off XP and job point gain and just grind for money! Or if you're A MANIAC you can turn off all three and just fight monsters for as long as you like.
Not to inspire a BATTLE OF THE YOUTUBE VIOLIN LADIES or anything, but I actually prefer Davis' work to Stirling's. They're both good players and their videos are a lot of fun, but I find Davis tends to bring a little bit more creativity to her arrangements. Read more
I never did! It sounds like it was cool; hope that this version offers the sorts of improvements everyone here is hoping for. Read more
Derp, fixed. Guess who hasn't played Secret of Mana? This guy. Read more
