I'm not going to support that side of their argument, but rather I'll offer this little anecdote from a little while back. In my transition from one ancient desktop to a new one, I found that naturally, many of my games ran at 60FPS compared to the slideshows of the past. Yet somehow the games seemed to look less…
To some, including TotalBiscuit, that feels like an excuse, sacrificing frame rate for the sake of higher resolution and increased graphical fidelity.
The title "A Story About My Uncle" sounds more appropriate for *that* kind of swinging...
That's understandable - it's a similar complaint to what Star Trek fans had concerning the Borg Queen, where the writers transformed the implacable hive mind of the Borg into something with a flimsy, stereotypical, "killable" presence.
My laptop has the Mobility Radeon HD 5870, and it's literally a desktop card from 2009 (HD 5770) with the clocks reduced.
that HYPERCUBE.
I used to play this old PC game called USS Ticonderoga. It was a pretty clunky modern naval simulation, but I persisted with it for one reason: it let you explore your ship in first-person. I can't believe it's taken this long for another game to realise how awesome that premise is.
Impossible. I'd read this on my desktop earlier today, then just now opened kotaku on my phone. The title morphed before my very eyes into

Very Gordian Knot
One of the key problesm with the Oculus Rift virtual reality headset is that it completely obscures the wearer's vision, making it impossible to play Game Boy while wearing it — until developer Shane O'Brien came up with this clever fix.
I'm of the opinion actually that the easiest and most accessible way to buy this is the Android/iOS version, which is based off the DS version.
It doesn't get more appropriate than that GIF.
That DX:HR music.
I had this amazing pirated StarCraft disc that came with a mod launcher, including no less than forty individual mods. Everything from the famous Pokemon mod which turned Zerglings into Pikachus, to the great heavily-balanced Gundam mod that I loved to death at internet cafes.
NOT FUNNY.
