I used to own an Xbox but I sold it and bought a PS3. I wanted to play the Uncharted series and I was also tired of paying for a gold membership, the fact that I couldn't use any old USB headset to play online, the fact that it didn't have built in wi-fi but I had to purchase an adapter, etc. Essentially, while I…

I'm not entitled to backwards compatibility, but Microsoft is not entitled to my money either.

Since the product they are selling is not food or water or air, and is in no way a necessity, I'd assume they'd want to go out of their way to convince me to turn my money over to them.

Yeah it's an awesome awesome song. Maybe my favorite off the album.

I think it's the best album they've made.

Not only that, it is recorded in an old school hi-fi style that is extremely rare these days.

Put on a good pair of headphones and listen to when the drums kick in on Giorgio at around the 6 minute mark, or listen to the crispness of the guitar and bass on Get Lucky, or just…

News Update: after hours of working on trying to figure out buggeroffkinja's abstruse point, experts have seemed to have finally figured out its meaning: "IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, DON'T BUY IT"

Deep Thoughts...

Except that Microsoft's console has always been available for completely offline use, and there is no valid reason for your standard single player game to REQUIRE an internet connection. So that boat analogy doesn't quite fly.

News Update: buggeroffkinja thinks that irony is like rain, on your wedding day. Stay posted for more updates.

News Update: Despite everyone telling him otherwise, Mr. Buggeroffkinja continues to insist he is smart. We'll bring you more on this exciting story as it continues to evolve.

I don't know if I'd agree that there is no "good" trolling.

VIDEO GAME TROLLING IS GOOD WHEN IT MAKES ME LAUGH.

The "benefit" is "the lulz".

YAAAAAWN.

The terrifying pig one is from a 1907 film called "Le Cochon Danseur" (The Dancing Pig). I think nobody knows who directed it but the reel survived and it's up on youtube in all its glory (no music though, you have to play whatever you want with it):

What is she grappling that hook onto? Mars?

Congrats!

To me it looks about as good as Red Dead Redemption, which came out years ago. Sure, this game will have more shit going on at once because of vehicular traffic and a higher number of NPCs on screen, but more modern programming means you can squeeze more performance out of an aging system (look at games like Shadow of…

I have no moral qualms about a person buying 1, 2 or 4 consoles, but I'm answering to the guy essentially posting "HEY WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL PEOPLE? JUST BUY BOTH!" is just slightly less dickish than saying "HEY WHAT'S UP POOR PEOPLE, CAN'T YOU AFFORD FOOD?".

Yeah I mean, what's the big deal with just throwing away $800 on having two gaming consoles. It's not like there are kids starving in the world or the fact that you perhaps could spend some of that money on learning something that would make you a better, more helpful human being.

It's published by Bethesda. It's made by MachineGames, a Swedish developer.

Dishonored was also published by Bethesda, but made by another developer.

I'm pretty sure he's the guy that pops up at 3:07 in this video:

RIP LucasArts Games.
