Counterpoint: As someone with a little bit (okay, a lot bit) of D&D knowledge, I found the opening sequence of this game significantly more welcoming than the opening to Divinity OS2. Fort Joy felt like it was me slamming up over and over again into situations that would seriously piss off my party, or combats I…

I was in the press around the last console launch my experience:
PS4: Units came about 2-3 weeks before launch
Xbox One: Units came about 2-3 weeks before launch
WiiU: Units came 5 days before launch
3DS: Units came about a week before launch
Switch: Units came about a week before launch

How early the Xbox Series X units…

I met Rami Ismail last year, and in retrospect this seems like an obvious move. Some of his stories about the time crunch related to game production, and the amount of hustle related to basically having to change your business plan on every single game as the market shifts, just didn’t seem compatible with the fact…

Yeah, but in both Bloodborne and Dark Souls 3 you can’t level up until you beat the first boss. In Dark Souls 3, the difficulty of doing this swings WILDLY depending on which class you pick, and in Bloodborne it can be upwards of a couple of hours for beginning players banging their heads against it before they’re…

The major issue with the ending of the movie is that it treats Ramona as a prize to be won as long as Scott “beats the last boss”: basically the princess at the end of Mario Bros. The comic very specifically and directly says how that line of thinking is toxic, and subverts and deconstructs the entire “evil exes”…

Despite completely duffing the ending (likely because it was shot before the final book was done being written and/or that O’Malley realized how dubious the film ending was and fixed it for the comic), the 2010 Scott Pilgrim film is kind of amazing in not only the fact that it exists in the form that it does, but that…

It’s pretty flabbergasting that Nintendo hasn’t done a forced reset of everyone’s password, right?

The problem is his version of the movie never shot about 1/3rd of its footage (they planned to get basically the entire end of the movie during the reshoot process). The people who went back and did reshoots were not him. At least some of the reason he was fired was because there was so much left unshot before they…

As someone who plays a fairly competitive UGB Mutate deck I’m not really sure if I agree with the RNG complaint. Starrix pulls a random assortment of stuff yes, but it should still be a finisher the first (or possibly second) time you pop it. Before you drop the Starrix though when and how you drop your specific…

Yeah, you can turn yourself into a stealth murder machine if you spec that way, by the end, I could basically take out an entire stronghold with one chained stealth attack.

The thing is that Reach felt like a throwback even in 2010. Already at that point the lack of ADS and the willingness to mess with control standardization made it feel like something more out of 2005 than something that came out three years after CoD4.

The problem was that it was four kind of half-finished games instead of one really good one (and also that the Leon campaign is really the only one that felt like it fit the mechanics).

Four pure Gokus. You forgot Kid Goku.

Plus two characters that are half Goku.

I think he said that there were something like 15 “chapters” to Shenmue. The first game was the first chapter, the second chapter was a novel about the ship-ride Ryo went on. The third, fourth and fifth chapters were the second game. If I were to guess, this one will probably also be three “chapters” leaving the story…

They do have access to the game code. They don’t have access to the STORE codes. Basically instead of transferring over the Steam/Xbox/PS3 listings for the games to Frogwares, Focus is cancelling them and forcing Frogwares to relist all of the games (it also sounds like people may not be able to redownload already…

Well, THOM Clancy (Tom Clancy’s real-life son), has been involved in game development.

Not enough that Goku doesn’t have to be a farmer.

They’ve never really explained why Bulma — literally the richest woman in the world — doesn’t give Goku’s family a stipend so all he has to do is train. You know, for the safety of the world.

I mean: why did JR Smith misread the clock to cost the Cav’s a finals game in the NBA playoffs last year?

This is a woman who infamously flashed a real nude of herself on a live episode of Undateable to try to get her costar to break character. I don’t think she’s going to get extorted over something like this.
