It happens because someone can reach a point where they feel they are a burden to the people around them. The thoughts literally start to twist themselves into "not only would my pain end, but so would the pain I cause to the people that love me." It's not at all rational but when you're that far deep into it, it's…

Would ya kindly start bustin' some caps in some foos?

It makes me pine for the "good-ol-days" where stuff like this could be flipped on and off with a cheat code. For some reason as consoles and games advanced, developers stopped putting cheats in. Or worse, they started charging for them. Often times playing through the game with as many crazy cheats enabled as was…

To be fair if we had infinite storage space chests in real life it'd be a lot easier to get rid of any clutter/mess.

You don't even want to know how I approach games like Skyrim/Oblivion or Fallout.

Most definitely. I even had a crazy habit of NOT selling my old weapons and armor. I'd just collect them all and let them sit in my inventory for no reason!

I think this is what pisses me off the most. Their game is nothing more than fucking bejeweled with a sugar coating. How the hell is a company that made its name being a derivative knockoff of an already popular game the one to go crazy with enforcing its trademark. They stole a concept, monetized it, and now are…

Short answer. Everyone. I swear every person on the planet is playing this stupid game - completely unaware of its under the hood exploitation.

I'm pretty well convinced that those of us that grew up on those early RPGs developed a syndrome when it comes to item hording. In those games, you had better stock up on potions because death is around every corner! Newer games in the genre seem to encourage wanton item use but I just can't do it. I'll play through…

I'd like to see some citation to your claims. I'm not saying that to be cute, I'm genuinely curious. Because the stuff I've heard is that they are violating FCC regulations and can be held accountable for it.

The big deal is that these personalities aren't disclosing their sponsors. It's often being done, in secret, so that viewers aren't, or can't be, aware that what they are watching is an unbiased opinion or not. If they came out and said so up front or if they had links to their sponsors I don't think there would be…

Indeed. The problem is I'd want to start with the first game, which I've been through a couple of times. I love that game, don't get me wrong, but there are parts of it early on that are pretty long slogs that tend to kill my desire when I think about giving the series a go through.

You need to play it! Just, when you do, keep in mind that when you reach the second disc the team basically ran out of time and money for the project and was not able to complete it as they wanted to. It's a pretty glaring flaw on an otherwise flawless game.

YOU SHALL BE AS GODS YOU SHALL BE AS GODS YOU SHALL BE AS GODS YOU SHALL BE AS GODS YOU SHALL BE AS GODS YOU SHALL BE AS GODS YOU SHALL BE AS GODS YOU SHALL BE AS GODS YOU SHALL BE AS GODS YOU SHALL BE AS GODS YOU SHALL BE AS GODS YOU SHALL BE AS GODS YOU SHALL BE AS GODS YOU SHALL BE AS GODS YOU SHALL BE AS GODS YOU…

Man, I've got Xenosaga 2 and 3 in disc form, and an early PS3 that still had PS2 backwards compatibility. I always glance at them and want to play them but then I remember the hundreds of hours it'd probably take to do them justice. Time I just don't have anymore.

Oh what I would give for a PSP-style FFVI game in the vein of the FFIV release. They could even add in a way to resurrect General Leo - something we FFVI fans have been trying to do since the game released!

EVE is, pound for pound, the coolest game I will never play.

I find this incredibly depressing. This game had all the potential it needed to be the best (new) Star Wars game any of us have played in years. It seems like such a waste to just kill it off like that unless it wasn't very far along to begin with. Still, they should have either kept a team around to finish it, or…

Exactly. We NEED competition in the market because if you have companies competing for our dollars, they likely aren't going to do so by pulling shit like this.

Are you saying you were born in a late-90s flight simulator, Luke? Because I think that answers a lot of lingering questions.
