what game is the top left kitty-like one from? I didn't know that was a moogle

as long as you remember that half of them aren't important parts of the tales series, like nakiriri dungeon series and tales of fandom, you'll enjoy your life much more.

actually, VF5's block button I can do with no problem XD i guess its because I use all three buttons so damn often. I think old MK's X button layout just makes my brain stop functioning. But ok, the content for MK9 must've been huge and amazing then, if not the mechanics. I know they were rapidly patching and stuff,…

as an aside, can I ask specifically what most ppl liked about MK9? It's probably the only fighting game franchise I never bothered with (because I block by holding back by nature now lol the button blows my mind), and it seemed sort of abandoned by competitions after Evo.

are there enough apple device users for apple make the argument that publishing books on ibooks would reach a larger audience than publishing a book under normal circumstances? because if that could be proven, then this transparent EULA deal is something apple can totally get away with for a long time. i find it hard…

I didn't know this was new o.o I jumped on just a month and a half ago, and I thought this was written down in their terms on the site when I was in the process of signing up.

the vocaloid program is a voice synthesizer program, making voices from just interesting ideas like formants and whatever other signal processing ideas to make sounds that are similar to how voices sound. All those artists are using the software package to get her to sing, not singing and then altering their voices.…

has anybody tried using SMPlayer2? It's pretty much just an update to smplayer, which is a Qt-based GUI for mplayer in both Windows and Linux, but the MPlayer2 fork supports smarter seeking, 10-bit H.264, and other new stuff. It's what my gf and I've been using for the last couple months, since video encodes started…

some previous old Kotaku article had some lines from Reggie Fils-Aime that said NOA doesn't really care much about lawsuits for fan work, so at least concerning the Nintendo specific IPs, that's probably the reason.

it's at University of Illinois Urbana-Champagne even, so it's at a top engineering university. How does that make you feel?

If it's on PC, then you can assume it'll be available on Perfect Dark and Share within an hour of release, and then everywhere else by the end of the day, and then probably a fan translation in english since it's a .hack title and I know some .hack fans still exist out there, even after The World v2. You got so lucky…

I haven't used OSX myself; I like, er, XFCE-based linux distributions and Windows 7 for different reasons, but i'd be willing to give OSX a shot if i didn't have to pay a premium to give it a go.

man, if that was true, no weeaboos would even bother getting a japanese major anymore XD it's been pretty rare for me to find any games with a translation built in, ESPECIALLY an RPG.

oh my god, i love that flashing red old school geocities/90s text XD

i asked some friends that do apple products, the whole lot of them, and they pretty much said a proper macbook competitor probably shouldn't be using windows o.o

somebody figured out that Type B pretty girl stuff sells better than Type A "Evangelion was great, current anime is garbage" targeted media. At least this is the case in Japan; in America, the people that this stuff is catered to is also reputedly the worst group of people to depend on for purchases. Which explains…

Beat me to it :D just yesterday I ordered SMT Nocturne, DDS, and DDS2, realized it was missing from my shelves.

I solely use my ipad for games like jukebeat, and my phone for pretty much everything else productive if I don't have a computer within walking distance.

you can buy a convertible tablet pc with a dual touch-and-pen digitizer for around $1000 and get everything you ever wished for :D

He probably wrote it under the (mostly unfair) assumption that Giz readers already know that's what the Asus Transformer tablets can do
