Snakes and ladders, amirite?

"Has-Been is suing the makers of Grand-Theft Auto." Fixed that one for you.

Thank you for this article. I'm emailing it to my friends; these curs are deplorable examples of the worst of humanity and it's time for serious reflection & discussion. I'm just aghast at the depravity.

I just want to see Nintendo make great games that draw in more consumers. If ever a company needed a renaissance, it would be Nintendo.

I loved this video! Thank you for posting it. I'm a Windows guy, so this was fun to look back at the "cutting-edge" Windows 95. Also, our current tech videos will age just as badly, and seem goofy down the line too. It will be a hoot to look back at videos for iPads & Galaxy notes etc in a decade or so.

Do the new covers magnetically attach to the screen while covering it yet?

I never had the brick, I started with a yellow Pocket, then got an atomic purple GBC. It's funny, I'm playing through Link's Awakening at the moment. Best time for this DYKG!

Just needed to say this to everyone: stop quoting Wikipedia as a source! Fuck, they link their sources, you would all sound a bit more credible if you took that extra step to quote the source, and not Wikipedia!

Or: America Gets The Clap

You're right, because the PS2 had DVD playback, the Gamecube didn't have more mature games.

Wow, that's really disheartening. I am rooting for them, their game's lately have been pretty top-quality. I want to also throw in my two cents with everyone else pushing for a more robust eShop!

I always thought that if they had secured a release of GTA3 or Vice City on the Gamecube, some of the financial problems of that era could have been mitigated.

Ouch! I hope it never comes to that. I loved Sega so much when they made hardware.

I can see that, for sure. The article does point out that GTAV was produced, including the marketing, for $260 million. I'm hoping this is not going to become an arms race at the expense of creativity. This is a shooter designed to slowly replace the COD franchise.

The point I'm making is that if budgets rise like this, it's not going to be good for the industry. Big name studios will have to make games that recoup that money, so innovative ideas could potentially shrivel, while ideas that "work" will continue to be iterated upon. A common criticism of the COD franchise.

CEO Bobby Kotick has revealed that Activision is spending $500 million to try and make Destiny a hit. That's half a billion dollars, which is very likely more money than has ever been spent on a video game before. Dang.

This looks really good! Nintendo may not be doing so well right now, but to me, this shows that their worlds leave an impression on people's imaginations.

Sevier reckons that if gay residents "have the right to marry their object of sexual desire, even if they lack corresponding sexual parts, then I should have the right to marry my preferred sexual object."

I commend you on a sound thumping. And it was polite! I'm truly not being sarcastic, I really enjoyed reading your responses, especially this one. Clever, polite, accurate, and brutal.

Oh, I'm right there with you. There are so many games that were important to me that I would love to see hit the newer consoles, or be remade & upgraded in some way. There are plenty of games that while charming the way they are, would be suited to enhancements that would re-introduce them to new players, while also…
