This isn't meant to be harsh, but I found it very disjointed reading. There was too much jumping around in the different stories being weaved together.

that video was awful.

Anyone actually played they demo themselves?

Have you ever wanted to watch Kotaku talk about Kotaku? "Hell yes!" you say? "I want nothing more in this world," you say? Excellent. Here's a video recording of our panel from PAX East earlier this month. We talk about games, new consoles, and what it's like to work for everyone's favorite video game website.

When they put it up for us to stream, we can know for sure!

Last weekend at PAX East, I moderated a panel called "The Golden Age Of RPGs." This was quite fun, mostly because we spent the whole time yelling at Destructoid editor Dale North for not liking Final Fantasy IX. (I mean... come on.)

Solid book that uses current research to dispel the myths about video game usage being bad for people & kids.

first thing that came to my mind was metroid- and then he said that.

It's a safe bet that Square Enix's executives aren't psyched that they passed up on the western release of Bravely Default, which Nintendo of America brought to the U.S. earlier this year. The game was commercially successful here, selling 200,000 copies in three weeks. I won't pretend to be a financial analyst, but…

what is with the forced video ads?

Square Enix made this video. It's wonderful—like their 16-bit FFXIII video—and makes me wish they'd turn this into a real game.

The Sphere Grid owns. What a smart idea for a level-up system.

hahaha I forgot that Auron carries around a jug of sake. I'd need alcohol too if I had to travel around the world with Tidus and Yuna.

Love this music. GJ Uematsu.

We'll be hanging out, talking about video games, taking questions, and maybe even bringing some surprises—if you've ever wanted to see Stephen Totilo in a mini-skirt, now's your chance—so don't miss it. We'll be at the Dragonfly Theatre on Friday, April 11 at 11:30am. The full lineup of Kotaku staffers isn't finalized…

Towards the end, Hilleman got in a somewhat contentious back-and-forth with one audience member who thought EA's practices with regards to sports games were anticompetitive. Hilleman said he disagreed with Andrew Wilson when he decided not to ship two years of NBA games because of quality issues. He also rejected the…

"Hell yeah, they're making a sequel to 300!" The laws of probability state that somewhere out there in this vast world that phrase was uttered. I really enjoyed the first movie, in a completely shallow sort of way, but even in my admiration I saw the flaws that CinemaSins is pointing out here. Maybe they'll be quicker…

What to do when you, Final Fantasy addict, become an adult with friends and interests and hobbies outside of gaming? You could grow out of the genre, like Sanders did, and find other things to do during your spare time, or you could get a job writing for Kotaku and start a weekly JRPG column. Most people will wind up…

the only thing as annoying as S-E these days, are the video ads that automatically come up on web sites (including here).

thanks. I was wondering about this- I thought I had read that the PS1 had more stuff than the SNES version.
