Good on them for changing their tune, but I think it is kind of sad that there needed to be this outpouring of negative feedback for them to realize their business model was scummy and underhanded.

It depends on the game in question, and how the turn-based battles occur. For example... in Pokemon the monster with the highest speed moves first, though creatues with high speed are usually weaker in other ways... either with low attack or defense. The game is balanced by these stats, and also the fact that each…

I’m not surprised they’re not talking too much about gameplay since everything you would see visually is pretty much the same as in previous Fire Emblem games... I understand that there’s planned to be a number of Under the Hood changes to game mechanics, but I doubt it would be much that would translate well to…

I don’t get it... aren’t these games built on a PC initially? Yeah there’s developer kits or whatever for the game systems, but still, doesn’t the initial build of the game as its designed exist in PC format? For a while I had heard that touted as one of the appeals of PC gaming... the fact that most games are built…

After watching the Super Best Friends play Mortal Kombat X I have now internalized “Boruto” as just a word that means “child of existing character in a franchise”.

That was the weirdest story to me... like... Even if that guy was like... Malcolm Ferrari, heir to the Ferrari fortune that’s just way too much.

Interesting, though I wonder if there are gonna be any major restrictions on it... like will it only be for specific characters, or is everyone free to just fall in love with whatever person the player decides? This also has me wondering if they’re planning to have some kind of time travel mechanic to integrate the…

Yeah, but I feel like dedicated Pokemon fans who want to hear Pokemon music could easily just get the songs on their ios device’s native MP3 player...

What the.... huh? Are pokemon songs really such hot ticket items to necessitate an entire program just to play them?

Everything I read or hear about Destiny makes me glad I never bought it...

Unfortunately, that could prove to be true... the fandom for FFVII is rabid and huge.

True, and Uncharted 4 got announced as well with, honestly, fairly little fanfaire. It was Sony’s ender for their whole thing, but most of the gaming press just nodded and said, “sure, obviously”. Sony had plenty of similar announcements... like they talked more about Street Fighter V, and SF fans were happy, but it…

Sure, but the announcement is still good press for Sony, even if it falls apart under closer inspection. I don’t want to say that the PS4 is the best system and Sony is great... my judgment was just which company had the presentation that got the most positive attention.

Interesting, because aside from Viva Pinata I’ve always heard those other games derided. Even Live and Reloaded, from what I’ve heard, doesn’t quite hold up compared to the original Bad Fur Day. However, I haven’t played any of them, so I don’t really have any criticisms of my own. But I can definitely say that they…

I don’t want to say that only Sony had announcements of those gravity, just that Sony had the announcements that got the most press and interest. For example, for Xbox with Halo 5 and Gears 4, athough those are big announcements, they’re also things that most people were already confident were coming down the pipe…

I have to say I agree, but I feel like Sony made more announcements that are going to get people to invest in a PS4, even if a lot of them don’t realize yet that they’re going to be waiting a long time to get their hands on the games they bought the system for.

I love Nintendo, but this E3 was definitely one of their weakest showings. Their biggest announcement was Star Fox, and they blew their load on that right off the bat. Honestly the best part to me was just all the goofy puppet sequences...

Spoiler? I mean... other than the fact that Tyrion is there, which could be seen as a spoiler for anyone who hasn’t seen any of the latest season, there’s not really anything unusual about it.

I know tastes are different, but I”m actually kinda surprised that the WiiU is outselling the PS4 in Japan.

Hey if you’re embarrassed about making such a bizarre mistake you shouldn’t have to worry so much about it. But there’s no need to so blindly hammer against a supposed problem with my wording when the issue is clearly your own reading comprehension.
