It was the drastic change in voice for Buzz. Warburton is pretty different from Tim Allen, and it was pretty jarring for me the first time I saw an episode.

This is really an important discussion to have. I think that Microsoft really does want to rework their whole OS to become a much better experience for their users. And why do I say this? Because they WANT to sell copies. They WANT to be innovative. But they have to deal with a large userbase that is notorious for…

Kyle, you are my hero of the day. Thank you.

You have some very valid points, and really hit the nail on the head when it comes to Microsoft's approach with tablets and mobile. They were in the game, doing very powerful things with their devices before anyone else was. I remember looking at some of the windows handhelds back in the day in envy when I compared…

Man, it seems like this game is just preying upon uninformed consumers to sell copies of yet another cheap spinoff production. Is this happening a lot on the 3DS lately? I feel like the games have been really solid, and that the developers had matured a bit from the DS days, but maybe not?

If everything were taken out, and the time invested into a crash was literally a zap back into action kind of scenario, like a video game, then no, I don't think it's a problem. People get used to it, they retrain their expectations and muscle memory, and the old system becomes simply that: an old system.

They've got to make sure they cover all the bases. Bravely Default was confusing and grammatically odd, but what about the nonsensical titles?

Yeah, I can see that being a problem. I've trained myself to pull my mind out of what I'm doing if I respond. I make it a point to not be that guy who still zones out after acknowledging the personal talking to me.

There is a major problem with this argument: Through trial and error you can learn new things. With the car, the trial and error can have very disastrous results. I doubt a couple of UI changes are going to make you brick your computer and cause you personal harm.

So, I have a really hard time concentrating on several things at once. I tend to tune out and ignore distractions while I'm working on something I know is important or really enjoy naturally, and the world around me has started to treat me like this is a problem. When people find out I don't keep up with…

It is a big step away from the traditional desktop approach. And yeah, this causes some people to become a bit lost. But that process of being a bit lost happens when something is new. The first time I messed around with Metro was on a little tablet in a mall and I actually started picking up on things pretty quick.

It's true. I think people have gotten a lot better about talking about Windows 8, though.

In other news: Billy almost spilled his Cheerios this morning while trying to beat a particularly difficult level in the game Gargoyle's Quest on his Game Boy this morning.

Bummer, went to pick this up and they are out of stock.

Windows 8 is not hard to use. There is nothing about the interface that is really all that difficult. The question is whether the new interface really works for the device you are using it on.

That's great :D

So I just recently started playing Rune Factory (catching up on DS games). Is Animal Crossing sort of like a Harvest Moon type of title? But perhaps with no deadline or overall story?

In terms of narrative, I've always found HoMM to be pretty downright lacking. Even the main storyline and campaigns that go with them have just felt pretty lackluster or cheesy, if not completely uninteresting.

You know, this game looks pretty cool, but I was a bit disappointed not everyone on the team has a doctorate degree.

Help me out here: I always grew up being told that burning trash was a bad idea. Maybe that's just because people would do it in irresponsible ways and start fires, but the other thing people always said was that burning trash could let out harmful fumes and contribute to pollutants in the air.
