Kotaku: Review Oceanhorn! I mean, yes, technically it makes no sense for me to be asking for a review of something I've already bought and already decided I like, but, well, I just like sites I read to talk about things I'm familiar with.

I've been told by many friends that they play FPS's and similar to 'unwind'. Watching them, it seems pretty universally not to actually do that—they usually end up madder, more frustrated, more prone to trash-talk and macho-pose. (Although not nearly so much as when they play MOBAs; seriously MOBA games are something

I dunno. How angry does someone have to be to actually buy and use "God of War"?

Hey Brian: I'm enjoying Tentacle Bento. Yes. It got made. Tens of thousands of copies in circulation. Despite your prudery.

Yeah no: You don't get to sigh and express disdain, Kotaku. When the entire gaming community, led by you, suffers a goddam daylight orgasm when new consoles arrive, featuring more-pornographically-than-ever rendered blood, explosions and guns then no, you don't get to clutch even a single fucking pearl at the idea of

What about some great titles for the Playbox-X-Station 3? They have a terrific lineup including

Verily. I think it was over on Gameological Society that someone said that maybe Colonial Marine's problems *weren't* just due to developer problems but that the Alien series itself just isn't that rich with ideas. I mean, there's the aliens, there's some humans, and then there's a lot of dark hallways with leaky

RUN, MICHAEL CERA, RUN!! That Spaceballs cop can't catch you as long as you hold tight to that deck of cards or, as seems more likely, magnetic-tape-based memory device!

I think it's meant to be his home and he's getting busted for hacking from his home computer. His huge, huge computer, larger even than most of the ones that were in use at the time this book was written.

I wasn't going to contribute to the Cho project, but your comment convinced me I should. You probably think I'm kidding about this but no, I am dead serious: Your preachy tiresomeness has made me log on and, let's see, yeah I'll just do the basic $20 pledge for the paperback now. But y'know, keep it up with the

That distant whimper-and-thud you just heard? Nathan Grayson clutching his pearls and fainting. As I write this, a crowd of RPS interns and staffers are gathering around, giving him smelling salts and rubbing his wrists with cool rosewater.

No, actually: it was never illegal to drink alcohol during Prohibition. It was illegal only to SELL alcohol.

Also, the construction "it's okay if the kid is mature enough" is . . . weird. It's weird insofar as we reflexively link 'maturity' with 'can handle violent images without ill effect'.

But, wait why is this of any concern? I've been assured my many, MANY gamers that violent games have no association—NO ASSOCIATION WHATSOEVER!!1!—with real world violence or misbehavior.

Now playing

Orc Vengeance. Maybe 95% as good as Diablo for 3 bucks.

Not really understanding the absolutely *reflexive* hostility here and elsewhere to ios gaming. Really not. Let me take it down point by point.

FF6 makes more sense if you realize it's actually a touching love story between Vin Diesel and The Rock. No, not their characters: I mean very literally between Vin Diesel and The Rock. Boys want to jump each others' bones something fierce.

Mmm. I *also* want a mode that enables me to take control of any other player's Kinect camera I choose, snap a photo, then paste that player's face onto my own avatar, which I will dress in a fabulous organza princess gown. No facesteal/princess-gown option, Titanfall? Then no sale. Sorry, just the way it is.

Ah, but they could simply couple it with a high-frequency covalent neutron device and just straight-out kill anything whose nervous system uses potassium ion potentiae.
