Konami is participating in extortion protection rackets. They are the ones making you loose progress with their FOB invasion component ( that you cannot opt out of) and they are the ones charging you real money now so it doesnt happen to you.

Game of the year contender Shovel Knight was a KS project. And it was sublime.

Stop buying season passes in advance guys.

This image, not made by me, I think does a basic (but decent) job of explaining how the rest of the world sees the Xbox.

True, except the other like 20% was on PS3 (i.e. another Sony console). Only a couple thousand were actually sold on X1 making for a pathetic one digit % of MGSV sales. The 360 version didn’t even chart in Media Create’s Top 30 of last week!

Okay true but Brazil and us Mexico are but a tiny blip in the worldwide videogame stage.

The X1 is failing for many reasons but it’s not going up in flames just because “it’s an american product”. Japanese people made Tokyo Disneyland the world’s 2nd most visited theme park in the world and they also consume the shit out of Apple products including iPhones which they LOVE.

I’m all for more variety in Japanese games’ characters and facial hair os something we could get more of.

I doubt anyone will seriously miss G-Bike but every time a publisher pull stunts like this it really makes me fear a digital-only future. This sucks.

Kimmel and every other late night host routinely make fun of celebrities for entertainment purposes and yet they also have them as guests as well. How’s that?

I’m as hardcore as anyone else on Kotaku and I sure as shit wasn’t “offended” by a dumb joke made by Kimmel. Grow some skin.

Shovel Knight isn’t in Smash, dude. You can relax.

That was anything BUT therapeutic. At least for me. It was exasperating.

And yet this is getting a physical release from NoA but Fatal Frame 5 isn't. I don't have 16GBs free on my puny 32GB HDD for my WiiU. And I don't feel like spending more on external stuff hair to hold the digital game.

It wasn’t 100% action and this is not subject to an opinion. It’s as fact as the air you breathe.

Not everything needs to be spelled out. I assume it was a lost family member or loved one that was tormenting him. This movie told more story through the visual media that it is than by words and that’s extraordinaire.

What did you want explained? It had minimal story, not crappy story. Learn the difference. And sometimes less is more.

“Most of the beginning?”

I’ll only answer that last question because answering anything before is just repeating myself beyond: accept I have different tastes that you. I’m a working grown man two months from being 30 and planning to get married. Pokemon XY is for you, it is not for me. It’s okay not to like things.

Even if the story in X/Y is indeed better and brakes the old mold of “no story whatsoever” it still isn’t pushing any boundaries. I don’t need every story in jrpgs to be groundbreaking stuff but if I’m going to put up with the same formula I got tired of in 2002 with the same predictable Rock Paper Scissors gameplay…
