2) What are these parents thinking?

Yes... Thank you. I'll just save this for research purposes. Ahem.

I was a late 80s, early 90s kid. Somehow, I had never even heard of the Master System when it was a thing. We had an NES, and the SNES and Genesis was well under way by the time I was even aware of the Master System.

ESF for HL was amazing.

You have to hit rock bottom before the healing can begin.

Obey Pustoolio!

Those goddamn kids have fucking filthy ass mouths. Who the fuck taught them to curse like that, fucking hell.

No, because I'm poor and need to buy a mattress. I will be purchasing it. I just won't be one of the first to play it, and that's okay.

The woman in blue at the beginning of the video did not look like she wanted to be there. Her facial expression. Her slouchy posture. Her voice. None of it seems particularly enthused.

We accept server issues at a game's launch as an unfortunate standard today, but that's for multiplayer games, and that's in 2013. In 2004, the idea that a singleplayer experience had to be "unlocked" remotely, even though you held the discs in your hand, was seen by many as an unnecessary intrusion, a roadblock to…

I sold so many of this model to elderly folks. They don't want a fancy phone. They want something simple with buttons and type large enough to see with their aging eyes. The fact that it's rugged helped too.

Hmm. Doesn't the coating of aluminum oxide on aluminum effectively prevent further reactivity? I think aluminum keys would be doable, or people would be running around with horribly oxidized IPhones.

Aluminum is pretty light, though I imagine grounding would be an issue. The only all-metal keyboards I've found so far are the super-rugged kind you find built into public kiosks and such. Not exactly ideal for a desktop setup. You've got to press HARD on those keys.

I don't know. Looks like a pretty standard keyboard with blue lighting and custom printed keys. Doesn't seem nearly worth the asking price.

I remember when this happened to Minecraft, before Markus "Notch" Persson was a multimillionaire. They panicked and switched to Google Wallet, who turned out to be not all that much better.

Chinatown Wars was the second game in a series of games that broke my wife of her perpetual casual and Mario gaming habit. The first was The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.

I might. I would like to buy a PS4. I don't currently have a second TV, but if I get one (For the bedroom.), it would be nice to be able to play PS4 games in that room without having to own a second console.

It's a very functional piece. Just not a historically accurate one, as far as the process goes.

It's the Conan the Barbarian school of swordsmanship. Who needs fancy moves when you can just put all your strength behind one brutal swing?
