For perspective, one can run from one end of the province of Skyrim to the other in just under 10 minutes, and many would say that world suffers no lack of interesting things to see/do along the way. 6 minutes at 60+mph to do the same in this world is nothing to sneeze at, especially when you take R*s propensity for…

You could always go the traditional route of quoting an article and typing your response underneath it in the discussions below each post, or you can just let Kinja do that automatically for you. Use your newfound powers wisely, friends.

It's a shame that a LP'er such as this gets the distinction of being the most popular, when there's so many excellent LP channels with actually reasonably tolerable humans behind the voices that are only getting views in the low hundreds. There is no justice.

I think back on that game and it came down to two very distinct but all-too-similar options— grind breeding for Knights of the Round, or grind an absurd number of levels to attain a higher DPS (for lack of a better term) than the final boss. There is room for goiod strategy to succeed, I'm sure, but I'd be surprised…

Voice chat on the 360 Kinect is an embarrassment. I sincerely hope the filtering is improved dramatically on the XBOne Kinect or the entire online world is in for relentless echoes and feedback. And $25.00 for a basic headset seems steep. I hope they are more than the vanilla 360 headset with a new proprietary jack on…

Someone's never tried to use a kb&m from a recliner...

Dark Souls PC works wonderfully with my 360 wireless controller/dongle set. I have had no issues minus the fake one I made for myself when starting out and I forgot that menus are only controllable with the D-Pad. I thought the controller support was broken for a second there :P

I believe you meant to say "fuck the Bed of Chaos." Or at least that's what you meant to say in my head. Because, really, fuck the Bed of Chaos.

I would say that having difficulties and having problems are distinct concepts. Yeah, I died a lot playing the game. Didn't have a problem with it, though. Well, maybe the Tomb of Giants. I did have a problem with that at least until I found a light source...

It is without a doubt much harder to tell if indies support controllers. Definitely agree that. It would be lovely to be able to sort/browse big-picture/controller supported games at a glance, but at least the community hub almost always has the answer (even if you need to sort through several dozen slightly less…

Curious about the Display Fusion Multi-monitor utiliy. Get tired of flipping my primary display to my TV just to play most games fullscreen, and have a hard time figuring out the catalyst control center's inscrutable interface. Anyone have experience with this utility? Worth the $9 price tag or are there other options…

A surprising number of games have 360 controller support baked in. In my experience thus far, if it's been a multiplat release, it's almost certain to have controller support integrated from the get-go. Of the games I've picked up in Steam sale the past couple years, all that were also on console were supported.…

If you get the Ultimate Edition, there is no contest— FO:NV is far and away the superior experience; deeper gameplay, greater variety, better challenge overall, despite its occasional technical hiccups.

Word to that. Built a custom xpadder profile that allows me to play the game from my couch on controller. No KB needed really at all. I keep one at hand for convenience for some hotkeys, but nothing need be "simplified" to bring to console and make the game work. "Adapted" would be a stronger word. Problem is, even on…

Henry Weinhard's Private Reserve is a bit of an under-the-radar one. Extremely cheap for as good as it tastes. Don't get me wrong, it's not special, aside from really coming in strong on the taste/price ratio.

Your understanding of art is frankly narrow-minded and partially shambles. Art extends well beyond the visual, into the practical and the conceptual spheres as well. Expand your mind, expand your understanding, and with education you may find ways in which an argument for Minecraft as art unto itself, or a…

The Just Cause games did a few things very right, but vehicle handling and physics is not one of those things. Vehicles are a huge part of the Mad Max universe. Since this strikes me as a sequel of sorts to that series but under a coat of licensed-property paint, I hope they are able to tighten up that aspect of their…

I'm betting you're making the VERY common new-player mistake of trying to parry with your shield raised. This will never work. You can either risk leaving the shield lowered and nailing the parry, or putting up the shield and blocking the hit. However, you cannot try to do both at once and will merely get nailed to…

Anything stored even in semi-near proximity to a cash-jar or resin tin tends to smell like cashed pot or resin for the rest of forever.

Holy hell that's awesome.
