I started out blowing into my cartridges like everyone else, but as time went on I did that less and less and eventually found other methods that worked BETTER.

It was delicious. A little pasta. Side of vegetables. Satisfying.

I made it. It wasn't difficult, but I have chicken on the stove and I was a little worried about it. Should I check the chicken? What if it's burning? The chicken turned out okay.

I've never managed to get any ENB setting to run at an acceptable level for me. I've even tried the "performance" ENB settings to no avail.

This announcement that the new Zelda is taking an open world approach has me extremely excited, and it's a good way to take advantage of the increased power of the WiiU. (Compared to previous Nintendo hardware generations.) How about giving some more games the open world approach? A Metroid game with No Man's Sky…

Today, I learned...

I've imagined something like this since high school when I sketched out a "Game Isolation Pod" for the purposes of playing Nintendo 64 away from my annoying younger sisters. My version included a sound-dampening powered ventilation system, because cramming yourself into a box filled with electronics just seems like a…

All the best gifs seem to be coming from Nintendo these days.

I started watching the first video. I was listening and though to myself, "This isn't so bad." Then at 0:57.

I shit myself trying to play Doom 3 or Dementia, and I can play this game just fine. You can do it, I believe in you.

Maybe I'm wrong, but is this the first generation where we are seeing re-releases from the previous generation, only with marginally better graphics? I feel like the XBox/PS2/Gamecube to the 360/PS3 generation is the last generational change that truly felt like a quantum leap of improvement.

It's these kinds of things that make me rethink the security situation in my own apartment. Sometimes I think "How would this place hold up in the event of zombie apocalypse?" But in reality I'm thinking more along the lines of "How would this place hold up against assholes?"

I'm balls-deep in some Early Access goodness after purchasing "The Forest" and "Planet Explorers". Both games are completely full of potential, with "Planet Explorers" being a little further along in terms of completeness and playablity.

Let's just say that I'm sure you can find a way to play it anyway, and nobody will ask any questions.

As a fan of JRPGs, and also an notorious JRPG procrastinator, I will attempt this Summer of JRPGs. I'm programming the dates into Google calendar as we speak. This will be interesting, since I've finished none of these, and with some of them I've played very, very little. (I think I put less than an hour into Lufia…

So Sonic lives on the Discworld?

Your first sentence is sort of poetic, like song lyrics.

You've got to start somewhere. Even the most die-hard anime fan once had no idea what anime was. I suggest just setting aside an evening and watching some. If it's not something you enjoy after that, it's no big deal.

Is the "Mary-O" thing an Eastern United States phenomenon? I have never heard anyone call him that in California.

The Bring! guys just emailed me to inform me that the app is not available outside of Switzerland/Germany/Austria/Italy after I emailed them wondering why it was not available on the Galaxy S4.
