I mean, it's still a pun on the name "3DS" this time, just like "3DS" was a pun on "DS."

Nice avatar, by the way.

My reaction:
*Reads headline* "What? A cheaper 3DS without the 3D I can't use without immediately getting a headache? I should have waited 9 months to buy mine!"

*Looks at a picture of the thing* "Oh. Oh. Nevermind, I'm good."

"Impressive" is a good word for just about everything in that game.

Why is it every time I finally get caught up on a show the internet seems to be going crazy over, it seems like the focus suddenly shifts onto a new show? I finally got caught up on Game of Thrones a couple months ago, and suddenly it's like non-stop Breaking Bad talk.

Kingdom Hearts 1 (still one of my favorite games ever made, don't care who knows it) and Final Fantasy VI.

I'll wait until it's free to play, which I estimate at less than a year. I do want to try it, but unless it comes out and get incredible reviews, and people say it's the big, game-changing MMO we've been waiting for, I'll just hold out.

Microsoft says a lot of things, lately.

Hm, I haven't heard that. If true, that's good to know that we did eventually get to see them, then.

Well, they didn't add in the cut dungeons (never thought they would, anyway), but they made the Triforce Quest less awful, and Hero Mode sounds great. Sounds like good changes across the board, good job Nintendo.

Defiance is showing up as $9.99 for me.

If you check the game's achievements (you can think of achievements as badges the game awards you for completing certain tasks)

An option to replay boss encounters once you've beaten them would be awesome.

I can't remember the last time I threw down $10 for a game without at least watching a gameplay video first to see if it looked any good.

Valve should take this to the next level, and have their employees always pronounce the name with a silent 'd', as though this were true.

Well that's really considerate of you. Thanks!

Weird that they're only bundling Dead Space 1 and 3, but as someone who only owned/has played 2, I'm ok with it.

A console Zelda game will be the thing that makes me buy a Wii U, just like it was the thing that made me buy a Wii, and a Gamecube. I enjoyed both of those systems for plenty of other games, but Zelda is what keeps me buying Nintendo consoles (and Pokemon/Zelda is what keeps me buying their handhelds).

Preferably one…

I need to pick this up. I really like Faith Erin Hicks' work. If you haven't read Friend With Boys or The Adventure of Superhero Girl, they come highly recommended from me. (Still haven't picked up Nothing Can Possibly Go Wrong yet though...)

If/when they get to XXVII, I sincerely hope that's similiar to the actual boxart they use.

I'm a big fan of Linkara's work, actually. I hadn't even thought about him wearing such a hat until you brought it up, that's funny. (But yeah, if anyone reading this isn't familiar with Linkara, go watch his stuff, he's funny, and a really talented critic who raises excellent points.)
