I don't see how you can argue it isn't Nintendo's fault, really. And your argument, it would seem, would apply primarily to ports... which I think most people would choose to play on the consoles they're already invested in (for instance, I usually do most of my multiplatform gaming on my 360, because I have more…

Ooh, so is it time to begin taking bets on exactly when EA will cancel Live 14? EA are such awesome trolls. This is starting to feel like how Charlie Brown keeps getting tricked into kicking the football. I'm thinking they'll pull the plug on it this time in July. Anybody?

Sigh. Not that I was going to buy a wrestling title, but it's always disappointing to see the Wii U get piled on (and yes, I do understand it's all Nintendo's fault, and yes I do understand that developing a port for a console that is selling poorly would be fiscally irresponsible on the part of the game's developers).

Oh man, if Spider Jerusalem is included. Gah. Best game EVER. (Sadly, beyond Transmetropolitan and Extremis I'm not a Warren Ellis fan at all, but those two things are among my favorite works EVER... and that's also why Iron Man 3 was such a huge letdown for me. It's a really, really great buddy cop movie, but it's a…

This has finally justified my Wii U. I mean, there's Pikmin and WWHD, but THIS. This is pretty fresh (doesn't hurt that I'm a sucker for Scribblenauts in the first place).

The entire problem is that Nintendo chose very poorly when it came to the overall specs of the system. Developers would, I'm sure, LOVE to make games for the thing— if only doing so didn't represent such a departure from the relative standards of its competitors. Asymmetrical local multiplayer is AMAZING, but nobody…

That's a lamentable notion, but it's a logical fallacy to jump from that to a position wherein we embrace GameStop's wrongheaded business model just to prevent people from losing their jobs.

I bought the "Garden" DLC first, and am holding off for "Roof" until my next payday. I like flowers, but I hope the weather holds.

I don't think anyone— regardless of their animosity toward GameStop as a business— actually wishes for people to be out of work. But there is a wide gulf separating sympathy from admiration for a company's bad practices. I think every one of us wishes the best for those store-level employees relying on GameStop to pay…

+1. Excellent.

Agreed. Dirty wall? Minor consideration. Scuffed bike? No way.

Serious cyclists usually don't put kickstands on non-commuter bikes because they're looking to keep weight to a minimum... although really serious cyclists have bike stands for their rides so they don't get damaged.

This. Blinking avatars should be outlawed.

My main concern with Infinity is that from what they've shown there doesn't seem to be as much focus on gameplay as on the whiz-bang-it's-neato effect of playing around as these Disney characters. And yeah, that's cool. But art design and neat characters add up to very little if you don't give me entertaining things…

I don't think that's going to do it... the system is, realistically, cheap enough to move units. And they did market it. But that's part of the problem... they marketed the Wii— quite effectively— and brought in a whole new audience that promptly discarded the system. It had an appallingly low attach rate compared to…

Nah, it's pretty much bombing in 2013. It did okay in the holiday season, but it's been pretty atrocious so far this year (something like 390,000 worldwide in the first three months of 2013). Of course, nothing has been released for the system in months, and they're only launching the VC now, and they've got a lot of…

You should pull the trigger on the illuminated one! The three-stage backlighting is insanely nice. And the keys are silent yet have a good amount of travel. I fell in love with it hard— if it wasn't for needing a wireless option with the PC in home theater mode, I'd be using it still as my daily driver. It's a beauty.

The Arc is super comfortable... it's just a shame it's incredibly glossy. I had one for a few days, but returned it because OMG fingerprints.

Is that the laser-etched illuminated Logitech? I love that thing, but mine's in the closet... used to use it with my Bamboo, but shelved both when I rebuilt my desktop as an HTPC. Now I use the wireless Logitech KB400 with the built-in trackpad. Just can't justify actually using my PC much anymore. Nexus/Nexus for me.

It's been two weeks since this article, but Republic Commando wants to remind you it was released eight years ago, and developed internally by LucasArts. And also: that it kicks ass.
