Well, as I said, it's imperfect, but the odds of a 10-year-old having access to a credit card are pretty small, even in today's negligent-parenting-ridden-society, and I think that's what Nintendo is really concerned about.

Because, as a rule, kids are more tech saavy than their parents and will either a) hide the fact that the 3DS has parental controls from their parents, or b) will figure out how to circumvent the parental controls, either by cracking the password or exploiting holes in the 3DS, or just through social hacking like…

Eh. That's fair I guess. I'm sure some people will get bent out of shape about this and shout "censorship" and all that, but honestly, for a quarter and a nickel, I think this is a reasonable-if-imperfect solution to the "family friendly console with internet" problem.

All around I think it's pretty brilliant. I know some people are going to be pissed at the exclusivity and maybe rightly so. But we never really get something like this midway through a cycle (I guess you could count the N64 expansion pack?). Faster, second stick built in, better screens and all potentially free of…

This is fantastic! I love this game, and portable would allow me to play so much more of it!

The ridiculous pitchfork mob after Zoe Quinn because she made a fucking game that manchildren are crying about is ridiculous. People have doxxed everything they can about her, dug up every past relationship. This is psychotic, it is beyond psychotic.

A large portion of it is because of hype. Like Apple will tell you, if you hype something up enough it'll just build higher and higher. It's like Kim Kardashian; the hype increases exponentially once you reach a certain level even if there's nothing to be hype over.

That and the fact that the PS3 finished the strongest…

I've been trying to keep the faith, but it's getting more difficult every week.

no question, just wanted to say great job on the deal page every weekday. It's a daily ritual of mine now to check it, and it often introduces me to new gadgets I hadn't know about.

Warlords of Draenor hits November 13. Preorder the Collector's Edition today, which includes soundtrack, artbook, and "epic" in-game content. [Warlords of Draenor CE]

Has there been any discussion of having a tabletop mini site? I know many of us would love to have more coverage and the imminent launch of D&D 5e is as good a time as any :)

EQ and EQ2 are another pair for example.

It was just okay. It doesnt really get my blood pumping like the first one for vanilla though. I just think its the fact that they focus on just one thing instead of focusing on what the player will be going through. TBC and Vanilla had really good trailers for that.

Most doctors will tell you six, but I say eight.

You're nuts!

I'm not sure I want to read THE SOLID LITTLE SNAKE :|
