Hear hear! I haven't the faintest why Microsoft thinks we should pay for them to let us access something we're already paying for...

For the same reason why disks aren't backwards compatible. Whether it's a disk in a slot or data on the hard drive, the system still has to be able to understand the code. And with the way the PS3 was built and the way the games were programmed, it would have been very expensive to make the PS4 play them as well.

Ehhh...call me when it comes with a Vita slim.

Well, we haven't really gotten a proper Idolm@ster here, but I'm guessing you're calling out Project Diva as weird because you've actually played it, right? If not, I'd say give it a rent before you go calling it weird. I wasn't much into Vocaloid but Project Diva is a blast and has a good variety of musical genres in…

My mum has used NPR on a clock radio to wake up for as long as I've been alive and now that I live on my own I use it myself. I'm a light sleeper so anything loud or jarring, even music, shocks me uncomfortably awake. But NPR is calm and soothing enough to not be jarring, but interesting enough to keep from going back…

Former Fry's Electronics employee here, they also price match Amazon the same way that BB does, though for most of the positions the pay is 100% commission based and you lose all your commission if someone price matches, so don't expect the sales person to be very happy about it.

Just curious, what private company did you use?

I have a weird version of this question. My boyfriend (who lives with me) has just switched to night shifts for 3 days of out the week, with those being his only scheduled work days (they're 12 hour shifts). The advice in this article is really good, but he refuses to follow any of it. He won't go to sleep during the…

This, but my boyfriend. He can keep himself up all night playing a video game, but the second we start watching something he falls asleep. Then the convo goes as follows:
Me: You asleep?
Him: *wakes up* Nope
5 minutes later
Me: You're sleeping, you should go to bed
Him: No! *tantrums like a 2 year old that he's not tired*

I worked for a very large electronic chain during the holidays (and Black Friday of course) two years back and it was a nightmare. We had to dress business-like with mandatory black shoes. As a poor college student I had to wear my same pair of worn out black flats everyday and the only thing that saved me was gel…

I'm a big fan of shiny glaceon and leafeon, which is why I've been trying to hatch the eggs for them.

I would like to submit my shiny related story for your consideration.

As good as the PS4 looks and as much as I want it to do really well, I personally won't be getting one for quite a while. My first reason is that there's obviously going to be a slim version at some point, but my second reason is one I haven't (specifically) heard from anyone else yet.

Amen to that. I have a friend who ran into a shiny slowpoke and managed to catch it. She was super excited until she evolved it....it's purple and the swirly shell on its tail is brown. She renamed it Pooptail.

And after being up for about 20 minutes...they're gone. I almost got a green one but the site had logged me out.
Limited edition stuff that sells out in less than an hour really irks me

It's probably my 2nd favorite (Zero Escape being first) but I loved it back in the day. I kept renting the game from Blockbuster until I hit the twist, then I went out and bought it the next day.

I think it probably happened around the time a whole bunch of Tales of fans started harassing Namco's facebook page and literally mailing letters to Namco's office in Japan. So they released a teaser site and little campaign for Tales of Graces F and released it in the US. Then all the Tales of fans figured that…

I for one would hope not, as Lloyd's DotNW (and ToW:RM) VA is godawful and doesn't fit his personality at all. However, I believe most of the VAs stayed the same from 1 to 2.

It came in the Nintendo press pack, off their website.
