Sometimes, I feel like we’re only few steps away from cultural totalitarism, and that social media often serves as the fuel used in what is a modern version of an old book burning.

I kid you not, they once offered me $2 for a game they were reselling over $40. This was quite some years ago, and this was, I think, the last straw in a long line of bad experiences that led me to practically avoinding them now. Oh, I still randomly go from time to time (having kids now, I can’t avoid it - even if I…

I think along those lines as well. Glad that these exist for those who want that sort of thing, but I prefer something looking sleek and classy.

Remember folks, if it doesn’t work, it’s because you’re holding it wrong.

While I agree with you, this got me thinking about that feeling of “entitlement”. I kind of think that once you create something and it’s out, people associate your work with the feelings it evokes in them. It kind of stop belonging to you. It does, but at the same time, what people experience through your work is…

The funny thing, is that most retail businesses fail to understand that to compete against online and digital marketplaces, they actually need to focus on the things they offer that cannot be offered by e-commerce. Which is a super cool, on-site, customer experience. Most stores these days try too much to focus on…

The thing I noticed, is that in many cases, it’s easy to say that your business is going down because of Amazon, digital distribution, Walmart, etc... and put the blame on them. But in most cases, I’d say it would be closer to reality to say that your clients simply went away because you failed to provide them with…

The best way to for people to express their displeasure is gain some self control and vote with their wallets.

“Let’s prop up the censorship regime of an authoritarian government! We could choose not do that of course, but we need want more money, so...”

Well, part of me find it weird that sound quality (up to a point) often isn’t so much a consideration for many when buying something to listen music with. I know there are other factors to consider, but giving that the primary use of headphones is about sound reproduction, I find it odd that aspects like brand,…

In a way, the same could be said of all reeditions of old movies. No one’s going to remove or change the old copies that were already out there. Like the Star Wars movies, maybe they just wanted to illustrate what those would look like if they were done today. It’s kind of the same thing. More or less.

To me (but that’s me), this is like when movie makers are doing new editions of their past movies with additional edits, special fx, and so on. Like with E.T. and the removal of guns or the word “terrorist”, like with the countless Star Wars reeditions with new scenes and CGI... many do mind about these edits because…

The reason the first movie was good (or at least, not crap), is that it was made to be a fun movie, not taking itself very seriously. I still think it was one of the most “fun” videogame-based movie out there.

I personnaly can’t stand the Apple ecosystem and their devices (anymore). It’s perfectly ok for those who like them. I’ve been there. Had iPhones, iPads, Macs... They’re fine devices, if they suit your lifestyle and do what you want them to do, and price isn’t a concern. For many, getting an iPhone may be the right…

I’m all for measures that end up helping the environment. But I find it stupid to always blindfully accepts what is told to us as being “the right choice”. For example, I agree that bringing electronics we don’t use anymore (or broken ones) to recycling depots. It’s obviously the right thing to do, right? Until you…

Of course, a lot do. But if they feel their product could still sell, they’ll raise it without a problem. Mostly, for electronic goods (like videogames) it doesn’t matter THAT much. Look at Canada (where I live) for a quick example.

You know what? When I look back at my younger self, I realize that time does indeed make us, let’s say, wiser. I realized at some point that for some things, it oftens depends on perspective. And that is mostly related to personnal experience. This explains why in some cases, people having what seems to be…

Of course not installed. I’ve been gaming on PC since decades. That’s decades of games bought on various stores, although, mostly, on Steam. But I have maybe anywhere between 20-40 games installed. More or less, at any given time. Although I game less on PC now, so I should probably uninstall some of them to free some…

Well, you know, that’s how YOU see things. I get what you’re saying, but it’s not the same thing to me. It doesn’t bug you, but it bugs me. You’re not me. When I sit in front of my console, I don’t have to deal with all of this, everything is in one place, it just works. When in front of my PC, everything is scattered…

How many consoles to you own? Just curious. If you say that you own more than one, than you are a hypocrite...
