I feel like this happens quite frequently where I'll see a game and think "Why isn't this being made on Wii U?" Not that I have a problem with PC games since I primarily game on PC and Nintendo systems, but still, it'd be nice to see some of these concepts make their way over to the system.

You mean give up my usual position of leaning back in my chair, controller in hand and my left foot floating over the left control key on my keyboard, my usual PTT button?

Prediction:

Might be because of the baby bed right next to the bed? That's the same reaction they have when something is in their way, at least in previous Sim games. They've always been a pain about having stuff right next to beds or bath/showers.

Probably more a case of the computers these videos are taken on than anything, though they didn't really do much to improve things over 3 even on a decent computer it looks like. I was hoping it'd at least be more stable an less of a memory hog, but that's not going to happen with EA.

Thought I'd take a shot at one of my favorite board games mixed with one of my favorite series. For those that don't know the board game [Amazon Link].

Beetle Adventure Racing was something me and my friends could never figure out why we enjoyed so much, but one that was in our usual rotation of multiplayer games, right up there with Star Fox 64 and Smash Bros. It was fun just to goof around in the game, solid exploratory racing aside.

I just hope that the loading / downloading times for user levels is much better. I loved seeing what people created for LBP2, but I pretty much had to have my DS or something nearby to entertain myself during the ridiculously long times it took for some levels.

I've always wanted a game store to do something like the cardboard trapped store in MegaTokyo: http://megatokyo.com/strip/901

Haven't seen the show, but the article title instantly made me think of Sluggy Freelance's "sexy vampires":

Hmm, I'll have to show this to my friend who has had a continuous obsession with PSO and has been looking for something new in a similar vein. I know he liked the DS Phantasy Star game, but it didn't seem to last like PSO did for him. Monster Hunter didn't seem to quite catch him, maybe this will.

Microsoft did the same thing with Titanfall when it was announced. They called it an Xbox One exclusive.

Some of the later GBA games booted up with that warning, so it's probably just that particular game.

I need to test to see if it still blocks me out from logging into the game, since I was technically in the beta but never got to try due to that particular Windows 8 bug. From the sound of things I'll have to re-install Windows 8 if I want any of my apps/games that require logging into my Live account to work. Kinda…

I enjoyed the first Transformers movie. I really did. It was fun to watch, and generally had me feeling good after watching it. It had a few parts that I didn't care for, but I was willing to forgive it for those shortcomings.

Aaaaand me waiting 2+ years to even consider buying this game is a sure thing now. Which is sad, I had fun with Sims 2 and 3 on release. Even 3 felt like some things were stripped out or missing that they had in Sims 2.

This is Timespinner, the next big PC indie platformer (I'd say metroidvania, but people don't like that word). It's being developed by Lunar Ray Games, a studio headed by an ex-Bungie employee, and it looks quite excellent.

Buy 2 Wii U games and get 1 free, and if one of those games is Mario Kart 8 then you get another free through the Nintendo Rewards deal. So Buy 2 Get 2 Free.

With the long-awaited release of Mario Kart 8, it's a great time to get a Wii U. Luckily, Target is running a nice promotion to flesh out your library. Just buy two select games, and you'll get a third free. Plus, Nintendo is still running a promotion to get a free game when you buy Mario Kart 8, so if that's one of…
