Copyright doesn’t work that. Trademarks have to be defended buy copyright does not.

As Ned pointed out, it’s other programs - and not ones that rely on OpenIV - that allow that, primarily on PS3 (“Mod Menus”) and to a lesser extent, Xbox 360.

Pretty much every person under the age of 25 is a gamer, weird religious people excepted.

“Security features” can mean anything. What it is not: a piracy tool. It works only on legit installations.

I’m surprised fangames using Nintendo properties have survived as long as they have. Nintendo was barely aware the Internet was a thing in the Newsgrounds era, but it’s 2017 now. (There are still some big fangame projects still going, naturally)

True! Nintendo is also well within their rights to run a Fan Creator Program like Microsoft does. Which is how we’re getting _multiple_ Halo fangames this year and a Tribes/MechWarrior game. Microsoft’s rules are simple: create your own assets and don’t use Microsoft titles as your own game name. For fangames like Supe…

Gut bacteria has a lot to do with it. Skinny people need to stop saying shit and start, well, donating *actual* shit to hospitals. Gut Bacteria Transplants for All!

Nintendo has never supported a competitive scene for Smash - their last big tournament event was in the 90s, as a…

92, wasn’t that the year multiple guys went on separate rampages at McDonald’s?

Criticals would defeat the purpose of Specials. Proc Spam was terrible in Fates.... Sometimes I could one shot an entire army and sometimes not. Finite state systems make Heroes more strategic like chess rather than an RNG tactical simulator.

GoW:J had a great Horde Mode, with class based co-op, AI helpers, and significantly toned down the base management. 2 is still run to play. 3 had too much going on: the base building was too grindy and it forced you into camping rather than actively hunting.

Aw, now I have to get both figures (and give WW a light saber)

PS3 was too expensive. OG PS2 was the right price. We got a lot of fun out of older PS1 games like K-1 Kickboxing, Syphon Filter and even Dino Crisis.

I play Age of Empires 1 every day. (Mind you, with the uPatch made by fans)

Chatter suggests that the Ares sequence was forced by the studio.

Given the immense turd that Thor 2: Dark World was, she really dodged a bullet there. Here’s hoping she gets full creative control of projects going forward.
