I'm not saying that undermining the end of X was no big deal. I only meant that it would've happened no matter what because X clearly wasn't built with a sequel in mind. So even if all the complaints about X-2 were somehow fixed, that would still be an issue because there's no real way to fix it.

It's a shame so many people overlook X-2. They mock the "sailor moon/pop star story", but the whole "Yuna heals the world thru concerts!" nonsense is maybe 5~10% of the total story - probably less. The rest of it is the same characters, voice actors, and scenarios everyone loved about X. If they would've toned down…

Yes, lets discuss how unrealistic the weapons are in FFVII - the game where a dead guy bred from a space alien tries to destroy the planet by summoning a meteor to crash into it.

The only thing I remember about the Tekken movie is Christie's pants having ass cleavage. What a wonderful idea.

and most fighting games, which only have a few unlockable characters if any

Earning the champions is half the fun for some people. When I play a game, I don't want all characters, all levels, etc. unlocked for me as soon as I stick the disc in. I want to start from the beginning, play my way through it, and unlock everything the game has to offer. How boring would, say, Borderlands be if you…

All that really matters is the reviewer's intent behind their review (is it a consumer review? an artistic critique? a neutral/unbias selection of information so the reader can make their own conclusion? etc.) and whether or not said review realizes its goal. I don't know why people keep having this debate about the…

First 4 books in a bundle and a hardback copy of ADWD? That's what we call the "I decided to read the series after watching it on HBO" collection.

Comparing League players to Hitler's election. I think it's pretty apparent who the stupid person is here.

Hint: Not the LoL viewers.

Watching the PS4 disassembly video, Yasuhiro Ootori made it sound as though the PS4 won't run on a drive with a smaller capacity than the PS4's default hdd (500GB). At the 2:18 mark, he says, "It can be swapped out for any commercially available drive with a larger capacity." I'd be interested to know if he says this…

Just because worse exists doesn't make the smaller offenders less offensive.

I'm 6'3" and have fairly large hands. I have 0 issues with the Dualshock and greatly prefer it over the 360 controller. I'm all for people having their own preferences - if you like the 360 controller over the Dualshock, more power to you. However, these silly remarks about how only tiny people and children could…

How can you feel that way about Amnesia, but not Silent Hill 2? Once you get the stick (which is like 15 minutes into the game), you can kill literally everything save for Pyramid Head. The game becomes quite silly when you realize you no longer have anything to run from. Sure it's not efficient, but it's not that…

Your original post was how he wasn't a "Top 100 Earning eSports player." My post was to point out that this wasn't true due to a number of factors. You also said DotA 2 was a more profitable game which, again, is untrue. At no point did you say you were only factoring "money earned from the game" in your statement.…

There's a few things to account for:

1.) That site only calculates profits from "tournament" winnings. League has very few tournaments outside of the 4 official ones from Riot Games (Spring Playoffs, Summer Playoffs, All-Stars, and World Finals). Other than that, you've got IEM, WCG, and a couple others, but they're…

If you recall, when the 360 first came out, the majority of the its exclusives were 3rd party and were promptly made multiplatform as soon as MS's timed exclusive contract expired. Sure the games you listed (i.e., MS's anemic 1st party lineup) stayed fairly exclusive to the 360, but that was only a drop in the bucket…

For whatever reason, though, Monster Hunter is only really big in Japan, leaving others free to steal its thunder elsewhere.

I never understood the contempt most gamers have for esports professionals. I can only assume it's jealousy. Most of us enjoy spending our free time playing games and would kill for the opportunity for it to be a viable career path available to us. But any time they see a pro gamer, they want to talk them down and act…

The thing I enjoy about LoL over DotA 2 is that it's more "fun."

Unless you were queuing with higher level friends, the game automatically places you with players at a similar skill/level as you are.
