“I have some quibbles with Rowling’s world building—how does magic work, exactly?”

I had a similar dilemma a while back. I ended up buying a PS3 mainly to play Blu-Rays. One problem is connecting the PS2 to a television - they were generally intended to hook up with analogue televisions using component cables. Also they used IDE hard drives, so you’ll need an adapter or something similar. Not every…

Why are some of you people so obsessed with no skin being showed on female characters tho but totally okay with it when it comes to male characters?
The male characters in DoA had literal stripper outfits and speedos. And the male characters are still running around half naked, and have entire pieces of clothing be…

Watch how quickly DOA6 will turn around when it doesn’t sell even half of what SCVI will.

I mean both characters have canonical ages. You could answer this question yourself right?

I think the real issue here is that they didn’t own it, but rather tried to deflect pretty heavily. I think Yoshida really nailed it by saying that his character designs are entirely because he likes pretty girls; it’s straightforward, honest, and admits that the designs are not meant to appeal to everybody. Being…

God forbid they don’t have anything to show though. You can’t just wish something into being. If its not ready to show, its not ready.

As a guy that wrote about the hardships of creating a game, its really weird to hear you say that.

I can invite you to my home during a party, write “Do Not Drink” of a $100,000 wine, and you drink it anyway. Sure you can do that, but it doesn’t mean I’ll invite you over again.

Thanks, my night is alright, although it’s a little slow. This was a good response, because it illustrates how you can use a long paragraph to make it seem like you’re making a legitimate point, while really, the point you’re hamfistedly attempting to make is that the statistical majority of human beings actually DO…

Women in videogames are characters in a videogame, and thus come with no expectation of agency whatsoever, unless you’re implying that the singularity has arrived.

If your argument is equity, I can all but guarantee that the ratio of female to male cosplayers featured on Kotaku is greater than one.

And that is because…

Tell me again how it is that Kotaku’s staff reconciles its constant bitching about the objectification of women in videogames while promoting this shit?

Everyone keeps thinking that Miyazaki-san was malicious, he was joking around and a fond memory for him. Yeah cigarettes are bad, they’re terrible 1000% but like when you have a decades long friend, that’s no longer your friend, that’s a brother.

the vita community will not allow our handheld to die, sony NA and EU abandoned us so long ago this news isnt that important

He taunted and embarrassed Reggie in public more than once, I can’t imagine Nintendo would care to welcome with open arms that guy.

I suggested the movie to watch in class to my teacher. I lended him my tape (yeah recorded from TV) as he didnt know the movie and has to watch it to determine if it’s suitable for class. He said he can’t show it. I didn’t get why cause I thought 9th (14-15 years old) graders are old enough to watch something like…

I’d like to believe that she didn’t want someone else to come in and ruin what she created. Which is probably not far from the truth.

Holy cow, this is surreal, I lived in Kasai like 20 feet from this place until mid last-year, and I would stop by there time to time to buy games or just look around. I had NO idea it was so famous, I thought it was just a random store! 秋谷さん was always incredibly nice to me and I’m really sad to hear the place is…

But are you not saying it's existence is problematic?

But you are! You are saying that the Sorceress should not exist. Just like your articles that you have such a passion for writing, as you've proven this past week. Kamitani has shown a passion for his art. So just like you with your writing he should be able to throw it out there and damn the consequences right? No…
