I'm not getting caught playing a kids game...what will the hardcore gamers think?!

There's a reason that millions of educated IT admins avoid MS operating systems until they release service pack 1. We saw the same lesson learned with XBOX360. The question is if consumers learned the lesson or not. MS will ship whether it's ready or not. They prove it time and again. Don't get me wrong, I actually…

If you are one of those knuckle-dragers that insists on pronouncing GIF with a hard G instead of the way it is meant to be pronounced (JIF), you should feel bad about it and really think about going back to grade school. Comprehension is a necessity, and if you fail to comprehend that when someone invents something,…

Cynicism never helped anyone. If you look past the assholes in the community (which you're doing a fine impression of), it's a truly unique FPS with a refined formula that everyone is desperate, but unsuccessful in copying.

I think the key is the anonymity of faqs. When you're priding yourself on overcoming challenges, it's usually in a public forum. Boasting, comparing, showing off.

the name format isn't contradictory to their previous consoles. Nintendos is. Microsoft created a format of [Brand] [Division] [Product] for their stuff, as did sony. Nintendo has always been [Brand] [Product], and by their own naming schemes, the Wii U logically isn't a new product...which is what causes the confusion

not a direct response to you Amerika, but this thread is somehow the biggest hipster love-fest i've ever seen on gawker media.

It's all perspective. The new album is what they said it was going to be. It's only a letdown is you expected it to be like Discovery, which it was never going to be anyway. Musically though, the composition is superb.

Unless, you know... you like Disco.

Can we not have Daft Punk and One Direction on the same sentence? Preferably not even on the same website?

Extra credits did a really awesome video on the subject some time ago:

Lol. I don't want someone to teach me. Say I already know French and I just want to practice, either my listening or speaking skills. There's been plenty of times when I've been matched with French speakers (Spanish speakers, too).

Sometimes, I go to stores and see things I want to buy. Maybe marketing shouldn't exist.

Guess this means precious parking space at E3 next year won't go to waste.
