Practically speaking, it probably wouldn't affect me in any serious, negative way to own a console that needs to always be connected. But the matter is only half practical. Subjectively, I just don't like the restriction. From my perspective as a gamer, it's a limitation that doesn't benefit me or enhance my…

Please tell me that after running through the game, you start over as the Rock's son, 20 years later, intent on avenging your father.

Personally, I'm less excited about the prospect of playing actiony games with this thing, and more excited about the possibilities for slower-paced, more exploration/puzzle-oriented gaming.

This DLC sounds AMAAAAZING. I was completely uninterested in ME3, but I may have to stomach it just for this.

Or, you know, sometimes it's used by actual humanists who subscribe to one of the forms of humanist philosophy. Sorry you don't approve, but it's a real thing.

I love this angle some people are working, where it's all about the irreverent, hard-working, blue-collar TV guy versus the uptight, self-important Hollywood elite. Talk about pretentious.

what the hell, I feel like you watch this video and then seven days later the mannequin appears in your bedroom in the middle of the night and murders you.

This is better advice than the entire article. Smile test, and simple common sense.

"They wouldn't implement this feature if they weren't going to take advantage of it."

They aren't going to go to the trouble of designing and implementing this micro-transaction structure without trying to encourage players to make use of it. Which means it's almost certainly affected the overall design of the game, whether you make use of it or not. I'd be willing to bet that the time and effort…

If the game is designed and balanced to be fun and rewarding in itself, and then the micro-transaction nonsense is just an option on top of all that, then it's fine with me. I don't care what other people choose to waste their money on.

As long as it's a completely optional way to cut corners, and the game is fully designed and balanced so that you can play through and not spend a single extra cent and still get the full experience, then I don't really care.

DAMN that's good stuff.

DAMN that's good stuff.

It could be cool, but I can't tell what the hell's going on. What is the actual gameplay? What are you doing to control those dozens of characters? Cause it looks like they're just all auto-attacking.

Seriously. If something is inflicting a list of symptoms like the "healing crises" above, it's probably not actually good for you.

Wow, that is seriously weird and SO CREEPY.

If you think about it, Kefka and Sephiroth really aren't that different. Kefka was the result of a failed experiment meant to make him a Magitek knight. The flawed process made him powerful, but also drove him insane. Sephiroth was the result of an experiment meant to create a super-soldier by infusing Jenova's…

Haha, great image.

There's nothing like a 5 to 10 minute nap right around 1 or 2 in the afternoon. That's when my energy starts to lag, but if I can pass out for a quick power nap I feel awesome the rest of the afternoon.
