Well, now, gamers are dealing with a new army of critics: gender activists and, I don't know, hipsters with a degree in cultural studies. And these critics are concerned that gaming is largely a hetero-patriarchal capitalist pursuit. Why ... they ask, isn't it more inclusive? Why must there always be male heroes? Why…

I'm inclined to believe that these comparisons are simply the result of Bandai's choice of angles being hardly ideal. Sometimes a Moon Stick is merely a Moon Stick!

Shininess is completely separate from every other quality for a Pokemon. This makes them somewhat less useful competitively, since wild captures will normally have trash IVs, and the best odds of getting a shiny with a specific IV spread are roughly 1/16384 (1/32 for the IV that isn't passed down from two parents with…

We managed to do this in high school. We had an arcade shooter with three types of enemies - dumb ones that fired randomly, smart ones that fired where it imagined you might be going based on a slope of your movement, and a class that homed in on the player to crash into them. We didn't realize until we finished that…

Oh man, Nintendo. That's brutal, making me choose between the Smash XL bundle and this.

GMod's been $2.50? I mean sure, it's on sale a decent amount for $5 instead of $10, but $2.50 seems a bit low.

You just keep doing your thing, Oklahoma.

...And all of the above are STILL worlds apart from rape on the spectrum from social acceptance, even when depicted in a video game.

But does it have the ringtone I wanted?

Not sure if you're being sarcastic, but that's definitely not a DSi.

The difference is that this is:

51. Relying on those reports, Plaintiff chose to purchase the Killzone video game using Best Buy's "free store pickup" service. Thus, Plaintiff reserved a copy of Killzone on Best Buy's website and traveled to a local Best Buy store to complete his purchase.

You have a cool niece. Most kids I know are boring. XD

How does any form of entertainment make anyone's life better? It's a show with appealing animation, decent characters, smart jokes, and a fairly large fandom to discuss things with. I can't really say I'm into it anymore, but it was decent for a while. The thing is that there's two types of brony - the people who…

Sorry, I was a little unclear. When I say "disconnecting from Steam" I mean it in a community sense. I can't appear offline to just some people, setting myself to Offline completely disconnects me from EVERYONE, which is problematic if I want to play with friends without being bothered by specific people. If I'm…

Alternately, I'd appreciate having the option to choose whether or not other people can watch me play. I'll accept whatever of these options Valve thinks is more reasonable.

Gotta love those no shit statistics.

So, I just wanted to clear this up - with Playstation Now, does it take into account games you've already purchased from the PSN Store? Because I was under the impression it doesn't, which makes me wonder where Sony gets the audacity to talk about "the value Playstation customers expect".

I have this exact criticism for Kill la Kill and its fandom. "IT'S NOT JUST FANSERVICE, IT'S PARODY FANSERVICE!!!!!1!1!!"

The thing is that doesn't explicitly mean just the French Revolution portions explore that theme. The modern-day stuff could be what they're referring to.
