You realize Steam has its own DRM, right?

At the bottom-left corner of Steam you can add non-Steam games to your library. If it’s a uPlay game it should automatically launch uPlay and then the game.

It’ll never cease to amaze me how everyone loves competition in every industry except video streaming and video games.

That and Peter Pan Syndrome.

Yeah, the Spyro franchise was spun off into Skylanders, which has become immensely popular. In the process, they totally fucked up Spyro’s design and they just stuck with it. So now we’re stuck with a Spyro that was beaten with an ugly stick.

Honestly, I don’t see the issue. This falls squarely within the “Ecchi” genre. People who go into it are looking for exactly this. It’s like watching a “gore” movie and being appalled by the buckets of blood. If you don’t like the genre then just don’t watch it and move on; that’s what I’ll be doing.

Playing N64 shooters is a nightmare almost entirely because of the controls. The lack of a second analog stick, and the weird movement/camera mapping is the most bizarre thing to return to.

If this was a full console game, I’d agree with you on the chibi aesthetics. I think it fits really well on the 3DS though. Since the 3DS has less power behind it, and the chibi characters are a good way to compensate for low polygons.

Hopefully, Kiss Him Not Me is good. I read a few chapters of the manga and it’s amusing. I’m hoping for a My Love Story or Monthly Girls Nozaki-kun - a shoujo anime with wide appeal.

That’s difficult for me to say. I’m not exactly an audiophile. It sounds no worse than my Razer Carcharias, and it can get pretty loud without sounding tinny. When I turned up the bass through the Realtek software it thumped well enough.

In regards to Google Drive, if you go to a university that uses a Google email server, check Google Drive. You might have unlimited storage.

You probably should’ve started with Civilization 5. It’s pretty accessible. I think the 4X genre is pretty confusing in general. Basically, you just have to keep trying. Odds are, you’ll have to play a few games before you understand what’s really happening and why you should make certain decisions over others.

Fun fact, people regularly jumped off that balcony. Legend has it that if you survive the fall, you get a wish. Quite a few people died, but surprisingly, most survived the jump.

I didn’t realize they announced a new Kraken. I checked it out and you’re right, it looks pretty good. No lime green or blinding lights. I don’t think the aluminum is a big deal. I’ve used a number of headsets over the years and I’ve never had them break because of their plastic construction. The problem is always…

I think SteelSeries is generally pretty subdued in their design. I just bought a Siberia V3 and it’s pretty simple. White and black (or all black, depending on the color you choose,) no LEDs, weird angles or sharp corners, knobs or anything else. The microphone is retractable and goes neatly into the earmuffs.

The first form is ugly as shit, but I quite like this form. It’s really cute and I think that, aesthetically, it fits Pokemon very well.

Context is everything, and in this context, the rising sun motif seems completely appropriate.

If this could play New 3DS-exclusive games I’d be willing to import it. It’s a really cute design.

This is hardly the first Super Mario 64 ROM hack. I’m sure Nintendo will do their due diligence and send Google a takedown demand, but not much more. If Star Road, another truly massive SM64 ROM hack, is still easily found, I doubt this’ll be in a much worse state.

I mean, at the end of the Cell saga when Goku basically goes “nah, I’d rather be dead than raise my kid son, Gohan,” then doesn’t even contact his family despite having the ability, the deal is pretty much sealed. Goku can never make up for that. If that wasn’t enough, after the Buu saga he runs off with Uub rather…
