Thanks for saving me some wasted time.

I'm torn. I like Kotaku Soundtrack, but I despise Kinja (why do you crash and burn with every feed in existence?)

I really enjoy this particular topic. I run into this issue with almost every shooter I play, where the character I'm playing is either a moral hypocrite, or I play them as one. In the case of Tomb Raider, the gun/bow mechanics fell into that cozy comfortable place as soon as I held one, which didn't line up with…

I loved the Udraw tablet. You should know that, I asked you for one for Youmas

For a sequel I'd want the same the game in an expansive new (but connected) universe. They did it perfectly going from demon's to dark souls with the fire keeper lore/mechanic. That's all they have to do to keep it fresh, honestly. New areas/items, challenges. Nobody wants to see traditional multiplayer or a quest…

Price. I wanted to get into it from day 1. But digital goods are worth significantly less than physical products to me. Steam has cornered the market with their seasonal sales that bring PC games into a competitive price range. Rarely did OnLive ever have promotions to compete with that pricing. I would honestly…

I've not been to Overmountain, but I have heard of it. Would like to try them out one day. My problem is usually that I don't care for Muscadine, and that's by far the most prominent and easy to grow in this area.

I guess that is odd. For some reason my interests revolve around things that stain your teeth.

Welcome back to our great state. Wonderful people and weather. Terrible tea and wine.

I needed that today <3

I would pick up the Pro controller. It's an added expense, but your hands will thank you. If it's the same as the EU, it won't support Gamecube controllers.

This game is indeed incredible. It's the only RPG I've played where every fight felt necessary and part of the greater story. He's right, I never once had to grind for anything, the pace was tight and fast. I finished in just under 20 hours, and it was pure gameplay. I can't recall any filler content. During my…

I actually expected the camera to pan to a flaming car rolling down the street at the beginning. If the gameplay also lines up with that movie, I'm sold. Running, stealth, a boss fight with a car battery, no guns. Mmmm....

I hate MMOs too, but for some reason I played Ultima Online for a solid 9 hours today. And yesterday. That's just the exception though, normally I can't stand the things. And perhaps tomorrow, since I have a day off. Then the weekend is coming up, so maybe a little Ultima...

I've been loving Pandemic and Ticket to Ride. I know they're not "proper nerd board games," but I agree that on average you can get a more (blissful?) experience from trying a new board game than a new video game. Maybe that's me being jaded at having played so many more of the latter. Regardless, for the most part…

It actually came pretty dirty and scratched up, but it runs like new. That's all I really care about anyway. It could be held together with duct tape and bubblegum as long as it plays PS2 discs :P

Well, in this short time they returned to me a working refurbished unit, same backwards compatible model as my old one! Great service, took nothing but a phone call and the effort to drive to Kinko's. I'm very pleased, thanks again for the recommendation.

The tentative specs sound nice and all, but I personally couldn't care less for sharper graphics, more power, etc. Backwards compatibility is the only feature I really care about for consoles. Old hardware will die, and without new hardware to play my collection of old games, buying the Orbis new is out of the…

I'll support this. Name dropping Working Designs helped tremendously. I hope they get the backing for more localization and physical products.
