Not sure if I get the whole “all the MP opponents look alike” complaint. They all feel pretty easily distinguished between, to me at least.

I might look into Habit Streak, but I’ve never bought into the whole “gamification of habits” idea. I guess I haven’t found a system in which the rewards feel worth the effort to maintain the habit. I think my personal issue lies more in accountability, and the fact that I don’t have any outside that to myself, and…

Why include Lupin if there’s no way to view it? I’m sure it’s great, and I was looking forward to catching it, but this isn’t a blog aimed at Japanese readers. A “Must Watch” list that includes one you can’t feels like a big middle finger to the reader...

Thank god the article linked to a before and after pic for you to see just exactly that...

Not that CDPR really started that trend, but more companies would do well to steal more of their ideas/stances/policies.

There should be some award for that logo.

Or that could just be an optional bundle a la Smite’s Ultimate God Pack, with the game available F2P otherwise. Gamestop obviously wouldn’t have a pre-order in the system for it.

It’s almost like you missed the part where he acknowledges similarities to TF and then goes on to provide examples that reinforce his assertions...

From the sounds of it it was the RIO that fired those FOX 1’s, and the surprised pilot that responded with “Oh Jesus.”

This was a really great read for a Friday night home alone with no plans beyond maybe some more Divinity: OS EE. I’ve struggled with a lot of the same stuff post-divorce and have a hard time imagining things changing...

Extra History is just a side series of Extra Credits, a gaming centric series aimed mostly at beginning developers. Great stuff if you ever get the chance to dig into their backlog.

I didn’t mean to undervalue his work or its fanbase (I probably would have geeked a bit myself if it had been of VI’s map) but even still, compared to the action scenes he’s done in the past, even a gorgeous map feels a bit lacking.

I’ve loved this guy’s work for quite a while now (even have a folder of all this stuff that I use as cycling wallpapers) and have been looking forward to his next project, but I’m a little disappointed that it’s just a map.

Considering most of the assets are ripped straight out of the original NES Castlevania, or recolored versions thereof, no. There are some animations that are too fluid, but this is more NES than not.

PSO is probably one of my most precious gaming memories. I remember reading a review of it at work one night, going home to show my then-fiance, and we went out the next day to buy the console and game, and sign up for Seganet (Sega’s own ISP) because we didn’t even have internet access at our apartment yet. I think…

All I want to know is, when can I stream music in the background without having to snap an app to the side and lose a third of my screen? They’ve been dancing around that one for a while now.

Never had one, but I was always partial to the TG-16.

I think the one legitimate complaint I’ve seen is that the safes are added to the post-mission loot table. Before you’d always get something beneficial (mask/cash/gun) but now there’s a chance you get a safe that does nothing for you until you drop real money in unlocking it, nearly rendering the last 20-ish minutes a…

I guess, but I was still playing over dial-up (rural living, bleh) so I saw the Xbox’s broadband requirements as a reason not to bother with the console at all rather than this online console messiah.
