This is more legitimate than you realize. In terms of self-defense, the orange tips are more of a problem than a solution. They only make people feel better, which is also a problem, in itself.

The fact that anything resembling a gun or sword puts us on edge is natural, and poignant. Fear over the items in question, however, is its own issue, that certainly works against us on many levels. Anyone should recognize that the man was in character. Even if you don't know who the character is, you'd have to be…

License plate?

That's entirely relative, though. I have to ask, but I'd gladly spend 5-600. Hell, I just dropped a decent chunk on a few Gaming Heads Skyrim statues. That doesn't mean I'm up for 2,500+.

I didn't answer your question, because you obviously didn't make a sincere effort to comprehend my post, and given your replies to many others in this thread, it seems like you're more intent on disseminating vitriol than discourse. If you want a direct answer regarding The Last of Us—then, no, I did not feel it was…

I've been swatted before. Not that bad, but definitely annoying

It's a blog, man. Not a traditional news outlet. I'm absolutely fine with the idea of journalistic integrity, but this isn't freakin' Time magazine. And even then, there are comics.

Unfortunately, this would be the worst way to test the market for a FFVII remake or sequal. F2P and traditional development styles are from almost entirely separate market segments. It'd be akin to testing the proverbial waters for a new tablet by selling a 12 pound gaming laptop.

Didn't you play ME3? We did see.....a butchered stock photo and 10 minutes of photoshop.

Dunno. I think it makes enough sense to not need delineation. Do you expect them to separate the two, or qualify them within 140 characters? I mean, at this point no one knows what "exclusives" are. I'm actually kind of thankful for that, though. Options are never a bad thing for consumers.

You didn't even bother reading what I wrote, did you?

This happens pretty much everywhere. If you want to generalize, at least denote that people all over are assholes.

It's nice to know I'm not the only one with that much space. I think I have about 17 or 18 floating around my desktop, alone. 'Tis a glorious thing, to still have all your old media from 2000. lol

A month or so ago I decided I'd finally give Origins a go. Aside from doing one preview of the game's interesting Batman vs. Crooks vs. Crooks multiplayer, I hadn't played it at all. All that talk of Arkham Knight had me hankering for some more Bat-action.

Well, yeah. And they should. While I understand the difficulties the PS3's obtuse architectural choices present, there's no excuse for not having supported the older, native consoles, aside from money. My point was just that even BC isn't enough by itself to accommodate what seemed like too big a price point, and an…

I do. I have my freakin' Jaguar still. But nothing lasts forever...especially when we're talking about consoles with the build quality of a 360, or digital content that will be faced with the death of its licensing support.

I saw the comment as one regarding the breadth of western games and the dearth of Japanese ones. You're saying they don't change from the PS3 to PS4? Graphics and gameplay aside, we still have exclusives worth buying the console for. Infamous, alone, is worth the price of admission (in my humble opinion). When you add…

Sorry. I must have misunderstood what "any kind of art," and "no matter what it is," meant. :P

I'm not trying to make a point about which side of the fence I prefer, but you realize your logic here works both ways, right? If men can like a game for women, why can't women like a game for men? Would it have been wrong to make the game star Tess instead of Joel? What if mostly (or entirely) men were the enemies?…

Yeah. I platinum'd Resogun without too much of a struggle, seating myself firmly in the top 300 on quite a few different leaderboards (which is good enough for me, since there seem to be quite a few cheaters on there), just to have any hopes of continuing this in the DLC dashed. I have no one to play with locally, so…
