I played the original PC game, read up on the reboot but didn’t quite get around to getting it, so watching this trailer and the others is the closest thing possible to coming out of a 20-year cryogenic freeze. It’s something else. I’m sorry to see that “movie trailer music” is now the standard.

Is it that simple? I believe some cartridges have the battery soldered to the board, so you have to be careful about removing it and re-soldering it.

Atelier Annie, of all things?? I don’t think that game is even worth its retail price. Hope that guy didn’t have to pay a big listing fee...

I wasn’t expecting this trend. I would think having to conduct battery surgery on cartridges from certain generations of games (though plenty of them just use a password system or no save system at all) would give people pause. Then there’s hardware maintance too...

I despise mandatory training and webinars, can’t even imagine some idiot using them for metrics. Good on you for getting out of there.

AHHHHHH! Is there nothing US copyright laws/traditions won’t ruin?

I can never hear “centralized servers” without shuddering.

I heard it was once so humid inside the Big Sight, a condensation cloud formed. I wouldn’t doubt it.

Twitch muted all but a half hour of a 2 1/2 hour stream? That’s pathetic. Way to go, Twitch.

I’m actually happy that Kotaku is fixed on specific Youtubers, instead of my favorite obscure Let’s Players. Some of them would probably quit if inundated by Gawker trolls.

The reoccurring JRPG soundtrack threads are always great, not just because they get offended fans worked up in a lather (can you really have a Best of List with 100 tracks?) but also because i can sift through the responses for forgotten gems.

Why do they always come here. I guess we’ll never know. o.o

They’re being built at the Henson Creature Shop? We’re dead now.

It’s been a long time since I watched the Christopher Reeve Superman movies, but I always thought he did a good job with body language to make the two sides of Superman seem different.

Oh no! Good on you for toughing out being separated from your kids. :(

Looking at that Miiverse shot just reminds me that Nikki was sacrificed for our sins.

Yep. I’ve wrecked a few 100-200 dollar Office Max chairs just by leaning back in em over a year or two. Those chairs are actually rated for # of hours per day you can sit in them.

I thought that was an emulator bug or something. o.o

When I was a kid, my friend pulled on Chucky’s tail. He was a brave dude.

I’m not sure how much longer I can stand hearing this game’s story described as “dark”. I hope it’s not going where idol-themed stories usually go.
